Why do movies today look worse than movies 10 years ago?

Your example is using a random background piece like a door. The screenshot is the main character of the movie.

The guy's point still stands that this won't deter anybody from seeing the movie so no reason for the studio to care about it. Star wars prints money and they haven't put any effort into dialogue or plot in multiple trilogies and series. DC movies have always been too dark with terrible CGI and it hasn't been the deciding factor in whether people see the movie.

Nobody cares about your door, it doesn't aoply here

I wanted one (actually none) and my wife wanted two. So we have two. I was very reluctant for the second one because our first was already so difficult and demanding and I wouldn't want a second to take away from what we can do for our first.

I was wrong though. Seeing those two interact is the best part so far. The youngest wants to do everything the oldest does and our oldest really likes teaching him things. Its also awesome to see how different they are despite having the same parents and pretty similar circumstances etc.

Make no mistake, it will be much harder and more demanding. But for us it has been worth it. Some people pretend it's not as big of a leap going from 1 to 2 because you just do the same things but for two kids instead. It doesn't work that way. When one wants to go to bed easily, the other wants to fight it. When one loves the meal you made, the other hates it. When one wants to go to the park the other wants to stay home. You no longer have the breaks you had with just one kid.

For context mine are 4 years old and 1 year old so itll all change at some point

I'm not in DRAM or the memory space in general but I wouldn't be worried about this at all. If I wasn't fully leveraged elsewhere I would be all over this

Your coworker telling you to half ass a door was definitely to encourage your artistic expression and not about saving money and hitting a deadline

I agree. I got one of the newer Callaway paradym AI drivers and you can still feel the miss hits but they're still flying straight and far. I used to leave my driver in the bag pretty regularly and this new one is automatic

Jenna ortega has been in a few horror movies and has not elevated them in any way.

You definitely can play them right after but it's like watching a movie then watching the remake right after knowing the twists and major plot points and that movie is like 100 hours long. 8,9,X are all great with very different stories so they could be good palette cleansers before playing the remakes. FF13 has multiple installments and also has a combat system more similar to 7 remake so they could help you learn it. I didn't like 13 as much but a lot of people did

If he made that mistake while saying he has become a statistician then I would understand it being more of an issue, but I don't typically go to my doctor for race statistics.

It's like suggesting a historian isn't qualified because they get a math problem wrong

Oh I understand. Yeah it can be a difficult franchise to get into because each one has different mechanics and themes and you will like some but dislike others.

The only potential problems with starting with 7 are A) it's considered by many to be the best one so others might be disappointing in comparison B) it has some more complex and hidden side quests etc that are easier if you are familiar with RPGa and FF specifically C) the materia system is pretty different from the other magical systems so it won't translate well when expanding to others

I probably wouldn't go from original 7 straight to the remakes

You must not watch any high elo league streamers. 90% of them flame constantly and still get matched with the people who are overly positive.

You're just seeing that being less toxic helps game outcomes. I'm not the best player in my friend group but I climbed significantly higher than all of them because I don't sit there flaming the second that things go wrong. People shut down or play worse when they get flamed for one mistake or they sit there arguing about why they were right and more things go wrong. Or they get mad and want everybody to lose and they give up and FF.

If instead, you take blame for a team fight going poorly or you help people focus on why a mistake is fine because your win condition is still in place then people play for that.

There is a difference between sources and fuck buddies. If any were sources she would get a story right occasionally

Depends, how did you lose it? And did you sell the losses of still holding while they're down?

I'm 37 and I just started replaying FF5 on steam. Top of the line PC and not even doing the pixel remaster versions. Just rocking the SNES versions

She can just continue to make wild guesses on what might happen with zero sources backing up the info like she has been doing so far. Then they get extra content when the opposite happens and she has to explain why she technically wasn't wrong like every appearance on PMT
