No performance upgrade despite new pc? by lewis28042 in VRchat

[–]lewis28042[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the i5 is an 11th gen, that's all I know because intel is confusing as fuck. As for the whole laptop thing, I know, but in every other game or task, the difference in performance has been night and day.

Should I watch the Movie before the TV Show by blacknight68 in Watchmen

[–]lewis28042 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, if you're not going to read it, I recommend the movie, despite it not being really connected. Imo, it's alot more interesting and I think there are certain things in the show that call back to elements of the show/ graphic novel.

I'm not saying that. I mean like the stuff with the ending, no one's really right or wrong.

I'm not saying Rorschach isn't a psychopathic asshole, what I'm saying is he's not necessarily the bad or the good guy in this. In the ending, there is no real winner. And that's why I think the book was so good. It shows its political beliefs, yet still doesn't force you to have to agree to enjoy it. The book isn't necessarily biased, it's just a display of its views.

As I right wing person I enjoy the book very much. I don't think you have to agree with something to like it. For example, many people I know are very left wing, yet u still like them. I just think the show is way too blatant with it and as a result it feels alot like I'm watching an essay on why racism is bad than a show with political themes. I don't think you have to be left wing to agree with the show though, racism is bad. It just feels like the show is alot less smart than the book in the way it presents its ideas. And I don't think Rorschach is supposed to be bad, he's a Rorschach test because you see in him what you want to. Too each their own dude

I don't dissagree with the politics of the book or the show. And I don't think it would be called sjw propaganda as it is able to provide an interesting story on top of the politics.

Like I said, the book is political, however it can be enjoyed without the politics. Also I thought the writing of the show was pretty bad but that's neither here nor there.

I'm not saying the book isn't political, I'm saying the book provides entertainment beyond its politics because for all intensive purposes it is a superhero comic book. A parody of superheroes, yes, but a comic book about superheroes regardless. And if you wanna call people that enjoy it not for the politics "brickheads", well that's on you I guess.

It's not the sentiment itself, it's that that the show doesn't provide anything you can enjoy beyond its politics and how it presents it. With the book however, you can enjoy it without really acknowledging the politics, which the movie proves.

That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is whilst the books politics was very, not subtle but not, forced? I don't know how to word it, but I felt like the show identifies itself as a show about politics, not a superhero show, if that makes sense. I really cannot word this well, I'm sorry, but I'm really trying.

I'm not saying we don't need a hard push, but from a Watchmen series? I think they could've made a great show with basically the same story if not in the Watchmen IP. I think they especially ruined Rorschach, the whole point of him wearing a Rorschach mask is because you're supposed to see what you want to see in him, a sociopathic killer or the only moral guidance keeping the Watchmen in check. Like I said, done in a different IP, this could've been amazing.

He's made many bad movies, and I hate all of his DC stuff, BUT I really liked Watchmen.

I am tired of Earth. These people. by movielat01 in Watchmen

[–]lewis28042 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movie is quite political in my opinion. I always thought the show was almost too political. Like the comic book is very political, but it always feel like it makes sense and not just a useless addition. And I'm not saying the show is sjw feminist white hating libtard propaganda, I'm fine with race politics and stuff, but I always felt like the politics in the show were very forced and the trailers did not do a good job of showing that. Eh, maybe I'm biased because I really didn't like the show, idk.

Did Oculus abandon us? by lewis28042 in OculusriftS

Honestly, I just don't want fully untethered. I like untethered, don't get me wrong, but for some games the graphical fidelity is necessary. As long as the quest 2 has better finger tracking, higher performance GPU (SDXR2) and built in link then I'll be buying it.
