my local bookstore has this hanging on their wall. i dont go there often, but when i do i always take a moment to appreciate it. it's nostalgic, reminding me of the emphasis on reading from pbs when i was kid. and sir patrick stewart's role as captain picard in star trek: tng -
i was more cynical about dc than alex, but even so he's right
Might do a live stream or video on this later, but as someone who did not love Supergirl or Clayface, there is no part of this that doesn’t suck.
People clowned on Gunn for being passionate, vocal, and entirely himself, qualities in studio heads that you never see.
He was a filmmaker first, executive second. Which, for sure, had its downsides when it came to "timelines, slates, brand synergy", but I do not want the homogenized, corporate slop that is going to come.

one tweet about oot remake broke containment, and it was about nintendo bloating dialogue to over-explain something that was left vague (at most inferred) before. this is a game churned out solely for nostalgic millennials, is spelling things out for your audience rly necessary

god bless the discord ignore function. ive used it to banish exactly one person and its the greatest decision ive ever made

this is cute, but including volume 1 screams "i dont know the first thing about this series", lol. schierke doesnt appear until vol 22. magic is fleshed out in 24. and that illustration was an alternate cover for 33! very odd and disappointing decision.
to that extent, despite never playing a king's field and being a demon's souls/dark souls guy, i find the kf-inspired games far more interesting and engaging than the average soulslike. they capture the sense of mystery/exploration that early souls games have and later ones dont
It's interesting how FromSoft inspired a whole wave of Soulslikes and now that more people have gone through their back catalogue we've got a whole new wave of games heavily inspired by King's Field too. Not complaining, love seeing more games like King's Field.
