New Scientific Discoveries, Part Vier
I hate "like" buttons on a forum, as they kill conversation. 10 years ago, you'd post something and people would respond to it, which makes other people respond, which makes people respond, and in the end, the topic might stay active for a long time .... Now you post something and people "like" it, but nobody replies, which means the post will disappear in a few hours and that's the end of it. The only way to make most folks care is to write something stupid or controversial which forces them to respond. Maybe this could be circumvented a bit if "liking" a post would have the same effect on the thread as a normal reply (pushing it up again). Then at least it would stay active for a bit longer. However, I still think the topic dies faster if nobody actually responds.

I also wanted to buy it since day 1 but then never managed to actually do it ...

Is this some sort of open world dark souls?

Anime - Do you Understannnnnnndu?
I only had 1 episode left and figured it wouldn't get any more exciting at this point.

Your Lie in April was great. Didn't finish Girl's Last Tour, because I found it boring as hell and really couldn't get into that snooze fest.

I really like his Dredd movie. Wouldn't mind another one.

You are right, which makes me roll my eyes even harder. That person could have just not written that, but instead had to jeopardize their whole point with this.

Yeah, that part was stupid and unnecessary.

An air leak, again?? Do they try to kill everyone on the ISS or why does that keep happening?

The TV and Streaming Thread: Series 5
IMO the film came out too late. The time of end time movies was ... ending. Same with Postman, which is actually a pretty good movie (except for the last chapter, which is just terrible american patriotism that makes me want to vomit). Nowadays these movies have gained in popularity again. The old hate seems to be forgotten and now people see them as the movies they are. At least worth a watch. I'm curious about a waterworld tv show, but I fear they would throw in too much useless drama and half the story will be set on land in a small forest, because everything else would be too expensive.

It's not just the US anymore. I know a czech person who is strongly anti-union with one of the arguments being that unions make his job worse and stuff like that.

Damn, they aren't doing it anymore? This was the only way I could experience the Picard ending and the other seasons of STD.

Anime - Do you Understannnnnnndu?
I'm curious why they are releasing this as "part 1" - maybe they were unsure if people would like it and thus released just a bit at first instead of a whole season? Or maybe part 2 would have needed so much time that they didn't want to wait for it any longer?

Watched the new He-Man. Not bad, but sadly a bit too short.

Well, the crew fighting with each other isn't really what is putting me off of the new Trek. It's all the dumb schlock and non-sci-fi and quickly ****ted out storylines that make me question my sanity.

Why do they allow Kurtzman to rape Star Trek so much. I don't understand this ... is ... is the problem actually us? Does everyone like the new Star Trek and it's just us few who hate it?

I liked the ending of BSG. Made it much sense? Not really, but it didn't matter to me at the time (and still doesn't).

Always remember that some trolls like to play both sides just to stir up drama.

Well, that's pretty cool. Kinda wish we would get new expansions for other old games as well. In fact, I kinda hope they will find a way to add new content into Diablo 2 Resurrected.

I didn't had the time to dive into it much, but is this a real expansion, for money and stuff, or just a mod? Couldn't make that out in short time and I also can't find any screenshots, etc.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2
Yeah, I thought the same -- so much text and in the end nobody knows anything more. The only thing we've learned from this is that MCA indeed only has been hired as honeypot for kickstarter. Same for Brian. Though the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. For example we know that lots of dialog written by MCA in the past was cut not because it was bad or something, but because it was just way too much. I mean, just look at FNV Lonesome Road, or Rose ... the dialogues are endlessly long-winded and don't fit in style with anything else in the game. Or look at Durance in Pillars. They almost feel like their own game inside a game. It's as if Obsidian just said "f- it, just let him toy around with these few characters so we won't be bothered anywhere else."

The TV and Streaming thread Series 4
"However, an unexpected result occurs when the town becomes its own nation, separate from the US. Thus Sarah and the rest of the town must grapple with developing their own country. " If this doesn't end up with some big company rounding them all up and shooting them dead, it's probably one of the least believable american drama tv show stories ever.

Why is there a shortage now? Because due to the pandemic, people realized they don't want to work for ****ty pay anymore. Guess this hypocritical "you are all heroes"-bs wasn't helping much either. Honestly, it's probably one of the good things that came out of the pandemic (at least in america, I guess). Another theory I've read about why companies are increasing minimum wage all of a sudden is that they don't want new laws being introduced which force them into paying more, because those usually come with more strings attached than just increasing set minimum wage.
