The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Reruns
Wasn't Wheel of Time only 3 episodes in the first week? So I guess lots of people checked it out ... but how many kept watching it? I didn't.

Cinema and Movie Thread: I like to remember things my own way.
Temple of Doom was the movie with the least nazis in it, right? I liked the movie with the most nazis in it. /Edit: And the one thing I liked even more than the movies was The Fate of Atlantis. Man I really should replay that game.

What are you Playing Now? It's not how you play the game, it's how you place the blame
Also Realms of Arkana. Still love how it looks and stuff. Played it a lot back then.

Random video game news... RNG 4 EVA
I bet they rushed it out to get that pre-christmas release date.

Or maybe removing it is what makes the game playable. 😄

I don't watch football and sure as hell will not watch this one.

Ancient egypt game looks pretty nice, but I'm 100% sure I wouldn't enjoy that gameplay for longer than an hour.

Cinema and Movie Thread: I like to remember things my own way.
What's super annoying is that the trailers always look kinda great but then you see the movie and it's like, man, I could have just went to bed instead of sleeping on the couch.

Cyberpunk 2077 continuing discussion
I just kept playing the main story and got a cool bike for free.

Bikes are still the best, simply because they have +100 cool modifier.

The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Reruns
The problem now is... how to make it believable. Sure they can be shown as evil guys, but can you actually believe them taking over the world? This is like a Pinky and the Brain situation.

SC2 release stuff was such a disappointment to me, I have never played SC again ever since.

How can it be worse if Shannara was already peak terrible.

Ukraine Conflict
At least the point of the misunderstanding makes sense, imo, since a "nazi" in russia is not what we see as a nazi. For us it's right wing authoritarian etc. etc. but for them, a nazi is everyone who is against russia. Basically, west and russia are talking about two completely different things.

Ukraine Conflict
Don't think those weapons are free, though. America / Europe is pretty much chaining Ukraine to them now with debt. It will take a long time (or never) to get away from that at this point I guess. Personally I still think this is primarily about the natural resources in the south, which is why Crimea and co. is so important to the Ukraine. If they can't get that, and the west can't get access to the gas and oil... it's all going to come to an end at some point, and nobody will really care about russia (at least america won't).

Ukraine Conflict
I don't know, maybe? Since it (probably?) affects russias economy and military, it might affect the war in ukraine, I guess. Not sure how this is related to the what-about arguments, though. My remarks were not about threads being off-topic, by the way. I really don't care about that at all. On every second issue, Z countered with something bad the west has done, that's all that was driving me, nothing else. "Russia shelled a hospital" - "oh, but the west" "Russia shelled a kindergarden" - "oh, but THE WEST" "Russia is shelling the energy grid" - "OH, BUT THE WEST!" Get what I mean? Yes, the west can suck, we know about that. There is no reason to post that after every ukraine war story. If you want to talk about the west so much, put it in another thread or whatever, nobody will be mad, as repeatedly said multiple times now. That said, I'm not going to comment on this again. It's been too annoying already. Do what you must.

Ukraine Conflict
Yes, if you start your response with a "what about..."-post you make the Ukraine thing weight less. That's why whataboutism is bad. I know, I know, "whataboutism has a different definition, it's not what I have done" bla bla [insert other excuses about semantics and stuff].
-
Ukraine Conflict
Yup, that's what I meant in the past. There is no reason to throw all that stuff into the ukraine thread, thus attempting to devalue its issues. It can pretty well be its own thread, or the general politic thread if it's recent events. I'm sure nobody around here, from the evil west, would protest or cry about it. Hell, we'd probably chime in with how terrible event x is or was.

Yeah, that might be it. The game feels too big right from the start, while the first game is much more straight forward. Maybe I like these kind of games, but I don't really like them all that much, thus I never had the motivation to get back into it.

I'm so confused, why do people here compare Legends of Grimrock with Icewind Dale? Those games are nothing alike. Funny, same here. I bought it back on release day but have not played for more than half an hour. Wasn't really in the mood then, and for some reason have never been in the mood ever since. Played the first game a lot, though.

Anime and Manga - It's time for you to finish what you've started and watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders
The last one I remember was Sword Art Online. It had the same "children becoming parents"-thing and it was super cringe there as well.

Watched Elfen Lied. First things first, it can't be that bad, since I watched all 13 episodes. But ... man... wtf is it with anime and young children adopting younger children so they can play parents? Is this some sort of grooming? Weird as hell to have those constant excuses for nekkid bewbs and bewb-touching as well.

Those mothers are actors. They were already identified from other putin videos, shortly after this video released. 😄 Weird how they thought nobody would recognize them... or they simply don't care?

The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Reruns
Just finished watching Wednesday. Not bad, not great. I've managed to get through all 8 episodes in short time, so it can't be that terrible. Not sure if I like this whole Hogwarts makeup. Also a bit too much teenage romance stuff, but guess I'm simply too old for that target audience. Performance of the main cast was good, imo. I also liked how the rest of the Addams family was shown. Was a bit confused about how much they cared about some random murder, though. That said, I'm not exactly deep into Addams Family lore, so maybe that's just me. /Edit: So funny how they keep doing those inclusive typecasts. Every show is the same nowadays.
