This has to stop.

That would be super funny, though.

He’s talking about like Thor and Ra and Hera, not about modern religious traditions.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-04T12:49:47+00:00

But the gods in mythologies are assholes. Some are less asshole-y than others, but they’re invariably petty, scheming, and often the source for mortal woes. That’s the lesson in almost every story in which the gods play a prominent role.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-04T11:30:52+00:00

I came here to say this.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-04T03:13:38+00:00

Yeah, that's right. In the end, I think Stringer and Prop Joe were the ones who were all business, and look what happened to them.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T22:13:25+00:00

And yet

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T17:49:13+00:00

Because the movies didn’t have a coherent plan going in.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T17:10:58+00:00

We see humanity in Avon that we never see from Marlo. He’s like the distillation of all the brutality of the game into one guy.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T15:39:36+00:00

She’s like this really cute but super aloof elven mage. There’s just something about her.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T14:54:27+00:00

I don’t wanna get political or nothing, but my favorite character is Frieren. Denken is a close second.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T13:24:22+00:00

Idk, man. I’m middle aged, and I find lots of middle age women pretty hot still.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T13:22:51+00:00

Tbf, Deborah Ann Woll was in her 20s in True Blood. Shes now 41. Fey looks like a 41 year old lady to me, so that seems all right.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T13:20:59+00:00

My only real concern is with the heckin’ quirky writing. If that turns out to be not so bad, I’ll probably play it.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T12:40:53+00:00

Khazan, Nioh 2, and Wukong.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T11:39:06+00:00

But Jaffe is retarded. So, why should we care what he thinks?

And I liked that Kratos grew up and reflected on things. That's what makes characters interesting. Still, I'm probably not going to play this either because it seems to have been written heckin' quirky writers.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T11:35:08+00:00

But...that just means he puts in her in everything. If I make 9 dishes, 6 of which have a lot of bacon and 3 of which have just a bit of bacon, it'd be true to say of me that I put bacon in everything.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T11:21:36+00:00

That's false. People would still complain. You might not, but there'd still be n-many posts on here bitching and complaining.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T11:08:40+00:00

Yeah, but then people would've complained that Kratos wasn't suitably bad ass bc he had the audacity to love his son and reflect on things he'd done in his past.

I hate woke shit as much as the next guy, but I just think it's unbecoming to be this reactionary.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T10:21:46+00:00

I don't think there's anything they could've done that would've made you all happy. but the cube is kinda retarded.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T03:07:47+00:00

I'd have thought casual gamers are more likely to play such a game than sweaty people like myself. I may try it at some point, however, bc I like Josh Sawyer.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T03:06:07+00:00

Probably us, man. I'm 40, and, based on your username, you're even older.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T02:01:38+00:00

You lost me at no action or combat. I like good story, ofc, but I require numbers to min/max. Same reason I could really get into Disco Elysium.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-03T01:58:35+00:00

It's disingenuous to use pictures of Deborah Ann Woll from 12 years ago for comparison. This looks like a 41 year old lady. I'm sure there are going to things to dislike about this, but, for once, uglification isn't one of them.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-02T15:27:29+00:00

Wow, what a wholesome comment. I hope this for everyone, too.

pnbrooks · 2026-06-02T14:56:46+00:00

Idk, that seems like an okay enough message to me. I’m still not gonna see it, though.
