	I mean, half the internet complained that DC movies are too dark. Also Marvel had success with their "lol so funny" superhero movies. So I guess they just tried to do the same with whatever they got. That being said, similar to Mad Max: Fury Road there will be a black and white edition of Justice League. So in case the movie isn't dark enough yet, there will be more.

	Whedon was brought in to finish the project, because at the time Snyders daughter committed suicide. It's not that there was a Snyder cut already and WB decided to just sit on it. /Edit: Still, even if Snyder would have finished it, WB very likely would have insisted on a 2 or so hours version, simply to make more money in cinema. At the end of the day, I'm pretty sure some people and their weird decisions at WB are more to blame for the mostly bad DC movies.

	Dunno, my experience with small american towns is pretty limited. : > /Edit: I just think the bits of the town shown in the trailer are looking super creepy, and I'm not sure if I could sleep there peacefully at night. Like, if something looks too good to be true, I just can't trust it.
 - 
	Yeah, I was thinking as a free update, sure, but if you have to buy it again ... ehhh. Also, that town in LiS3 ... is that really how small american towns look like? It feels completely unbelievable to me. More like a cult-site or something.

Yeh, posted that a few days ago. : > It made me not buy / play the game, tbh because I realized it's just more of the usual. - 
	Uhh, Remaster of LiS1? That's weird, especially because the material shown in the trailer doesn't look that different to how the game looks like right now? I bought LiS2, but never actually played it... first I was waiting for all episodes to be out, then I heard enough of the game over the years that it killed all my motivation to even try it. LiS3 looks interesting, but dunno yet ... seems to be set in some hippie town. Just hope they won't go overboard with their morals or whatever again.

	Alrighty. I just made it through the Snyder Cut (credits are running right now). First things first: The only thing I remember from watching the original is the feeling of emptiness and disappointment. Everything else is basically wiped from my memory. That being said .... man, this movie was *so much better* than I expected. Crazy what you can achieve if you give your characters room to breath and develop their story. With very few exceptions I found none of the scenes wasted. Everything fit together nicely. Honestly, I don't really have much to complain about at this point. Did not fall asleep at 3/4 of it, which is a pretty big deal considering my track record with super hero movies. At this point I'd even go so far to say something super controversial ........ I liked it more than Avengers Endgame. Primarily because I *hated* the final CGI battle in Endgame. Marvel tried to throw every character they had into it, which resulted in everyone systemically getting 1 or 2 scenes and then you'd never hear of them ever again. With the 5 1/2 main characters in Justice League, this is never a problem. Needed to get used to the 4:3 screen resolution at first, but later didn't even notice it anymore. Weird decision, but ok. There is only one question I have right now.. After the ending.. That's all my thoughts about it for now.

	The Justice League Snyder Cut is out today. Originally wanted to wait till weekend, but I'm probably going to dive into it this evening.
 - 
	Damn, I really wouldn't mind playing this .... but I just don't have the time to sink into it.
 - 
	That's for reminding me that I'm Han Solo.
 - 
	Well, now that is a very shallow comparison.
 - 
	Yes, Gothic 3 also wasn't that great. However, Gothic 4 is topping it in every area and if I remember right, the G3 addon wasn't even finished. The community had to finish it with like a million patches.
 - 
	I never connected Gothic with a Bethsoft game. The gameplay is just way too different. Also yes, remember the last Gothic game that wasn't made by PB .... hint: It sucked ass. Gothic 4 was a joke. Oh, and that time they hired some indian studio to make an addon for Gothic 3 .... hilariously bad.
 - 
	The demo was just godawful. All the ughs, and aghs, and the character couldn't stop talking to himself. The QTE combat scenes, the forced action ... it's was just bad, and I don't see how this can be improved without completely rewriting it.
 - 
	Age restrictions is a thing in germany. Although the game was rated 12 and I was much older than that at the time. All in all it was just a really weird experience.
 - 
	I think the loading screens are just the game world that is trying to keep up with the fast travel speed. Basically the world streaming is too slow.
 - 
	Things were different back then. I just remembered the day I bought Gothic 1 in a shopping mall. The cashier looked at the box and then at me as if I was buying things made by Satan.
 - 
	Gothic 1 and 2 are half of my childhood. Probably the RPGs I've played the most right after Fallout.
 - 
	Damn, I'm shaking like hell right now. My upstairs neighbors were yelling again, nothing new, happens at least once per week. But then screaming started and it got quite unpleasant. Was rushing to put my pants on, couldn't find any socks, though. Went outside to the floor and was thinking should I go up or call the police or whatever, I have no idea. In that moment another neighbor came and opened the door loud (didn't noticed what was going on), then the yelling from above stopped. Sitting here now, typing this **** down. It's crazy.
 - 
	Don't agree. Last time I played it (I think a year ago), I still loved the hell out of it. I checked out the demo of that remake and it was horrid. Unless they changed almost all of it, I will never going to touch it.
 - 
	I'm not that big into these DC shows, so I can't really compare, but it is pretty violent, comes with swearing, and there is some random sexiness thrown in as well, etc. so this really is not a show for kids even though it looks like that at first. So far it basically deals with the emancipation of Harley Quinn. Dunno how it will continue, but I gotta say that Poison Ivy is dang hot. Kinda reminds me of the Kim Possibly stuff from 20 years ago. They make lots of jokes on superhero stuff and the villains and it does not seem to take itself super serious. So if one expects some super realistic grimdark show ... nah, that isn't it.
 - 
	Started watch the Harley Quinn show. Done with the first 3 episodes and it's pretty good so far.

I watched this video today and decided it was more than enough Valheim for me. Not gonna dive into this game. - 
	Yeah, it goes into that direction. However, I haven't seen the Goonies in ages and my memories of it are faded.
 - 
	Watched Finding 'Ohana on Netflix yesterday. An island, a treasure, some pirates, ... Was not bad. Didn't see a single hula girl trope. Ending is a bit cheesy, but was to be expected, tbh. Kinda reminds me of these 90s adventure movies. Also, dang, Hawaiians are hot. Truth told, I only watched the movie because of Lindsay Watson (and the hopes of some 90s adventure movie nostalgia).
