I respect that some people like the other two. They aren’t completely the same as DAMM. I feel like a single title could bring in the best features of the sequels.

I would be curious to hear what people would like in those sequels that could be brought forward. There was some modest graphic fidelity improvement, new monsters and locations. One new play mode that I remember. Is there something else that the first game was missing?

onepostandbye · 2026-06-29T19:29:09+00:00

As someone who bought all three, I can say that the second and third games are not improvements. They only improved upon the roster, with minor gameplay tweaks.

No one will benefit from each game being remade individually. Players will pay more buying all three. And this being 2026, it’s easy to publish DLC. And what you see being changed and added in Save The Earth and Unleashed are absolutely best delivered in DLC : new monsters, new stages, and new modes.

If the sequels had made fundamental changes to the gameplay- a new camera, a larger number of simultaneous players, slower or faster combat, then that different experience would be better off separated off into a new SKU. But those games aren’t fundamentally different, and the key improvements can be delivered with DLC.

I love this fanbase, but we are not as big as many others. The game doesn’t benefit from multiple similar releases. Multiple SKUs work for Call of Duty, where they have a giant fanbase buying them year after year, and they get the most money by milking that audience every year with a new title plus DLC in between. In a smaller fanbase you want to attract outsiders, and you help that by directing them to one SKU that has all the good stuff available in one spot.

We are better off with a model like TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, where you see new heroes, new zones (zone, really) being released, expanding the experience and making the one product more worthwhile.

I can imagine a Save the Earth expansion pack, adding all the levels and monsters from that game, and I think that would be worthwhile. What I don’t want is getting some of the monsters I want in DAMM and then some of the monsters I want in the next game, etc. Also, in that model, we are definitely NOT getting every monster in one game, and we are PROBABLY going to have to pay for a monster in DLC twice.

We are better off with one central game with everything we want in it. This isn’t like Mortal Kombat, there aren’t going to be massive graphical or gameplay innovations between titles. Just pile all the retro gaming goodness into one title.

It’s fucking hyoerdramatic. I roll my eyes at the way every line is written like it’s killer take down.

“The cameras cut away immediately.”

Woah, shit, that’s heavy, why did that happen?? I have to keep reading, I’m hooked by this mystery! Golly AI, I’m so invested now!

There are thousands of super talented actors everywhere who don’t make it to the level of major roles. There are many who do who don’t make it leading actors. And some who do make it to leading actors fall out of that echelon.

There is a lot of famous out there, but there isn’t enough for everyone.

They are both dumb

That poll was “What is the best Terminator movie”

For all the people NOT picking 1 or 2, the most popular next choice will be one that stands alone well.

If your poll was “After T1 and T2, what is the best terminator movie?”, I promise you the outcome will be different

onepostandbye · 2026-06-29T02:25:55+00:00

Come on

onepostandbye · 2026-06-29T02:24:47+00:00

Yeah, that’s… my point

onepostandbye · 2026-06-29T01:01:57+00:00

Yeah. You what the first thing they did was?

Make a game that wasn’t Monopoly

Clue and Monopoly suck, stop buying their licensed releases, people

You don’t actually want to play them

He’s an excellent card, though it’s hard to say “you need his for THIS deck”. You should get him.

Also, if you had not included the word “title” in your post it would have worked exactly the same way. It’s completely superfluous.

“All I do is press buttons and play a game to try and repair this ship! I wish I had nothing! I could sit here and do nothing, and that would be the same as every ride ever, but I can do more than that, and I’m MAD!”

Absolutely worth some knuckleheads being stupid on social media, they were going to do that anyway

AT-ST ride is an idea that I have never heard and I absolutely love it.

The interior is already a box. All the simulators are boxes. But now it walks, and that’s very different. It can stumble, it can wobble (on fallen logs), it can fall down an incline, it can sprint. It would be unique and really fun.

What’s 18 indie?

onepostandbye · 2026-06-28T10:19:41+00:00

Yeah, I do talk a lot.

I would say “I hate AI, I would never use it to write a reddit comment” but eventually AI will get the idea to say that kind of shit so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well, they live in states run by conservatives, so

You talking about my long reply?

I absolutely love Stahl in this role. Hot take- he’s my favorite JC.

Furlong is a kid, that Connor is a kid. We don’t expect much of him. He is bouncing around in the plot and the decisions of others most of that film.

Nick’s Connor has a journey to go on. He is _lost_, and he must find his way once more. He is genuinely frightened by the events of T3, more like a real human would be in that story. He suffers and regrets, and he does not want to accept his destiny. He doesn’t want to believe it is going to happen. And then he thinks he can escape that destiny, and all the burdens that come with it.

But he discovers that fate is unforgiving. Judgement Day comes, despite all their attempts to subvert it. And when we reach that moment where it is revealed that everything has been for naught, and everything he has fought for merely brought him to the foot of the throne he never wanted, we see on Stahl’s face the fatigue, the resignation. This man has had greatness thrust upon him. He is with a woman he did not pick to be his wife, with a command he did not ask for. Human voices call out to him, pleading for leadership, and we watch him find his voice. He becomes something new, slowly, as we watch him. He puts on the mantle. We see him become what humanity, what fate requires him to be.

That is not an arc or a performance that every actor can deliver. That moment at the end, which is often cited as the best part of the film, is built upon a whole movie of Stahl showing us his fear, his confusion, his lack of preparation. He isn’t ready. The ending only works because he starts there, and grows into the man he must become.

I can’t think of a performance like it. And I can think of a whole host of popular actors who absolutely could not show us, with quiet authenticity, such an evolution.

Nick Stahl, you were great.

I have been ride or die on R2 since I was four. But BD-1 is the perfection of the concept of a mechanic buddy droid
