Re: Trap (2024, D: M. Night Shyamalan)

The twist is in the preview. What a twist!

Re: Fallout 4

I'm not sure about a separate sku, but everyone who owns a current version should get the upgrade for free. I went ahead and bought the GOTY edition for $10. I started the game years ago and it...

Re: Dark Matter (Apple+) -- S: Edgerton, Connelly -- Premieres 5/8/2024

I've been disappointed with some of their output, but they've still put out some great sci-fi shows. Severance is one of my favorite first seasons of a show. Silo was great, much better than I...

Re: 3 Body Problem (Netflix) -- From the Creators of Game of Thrones -- premieres 3/21/24

I think your friend mixed that up a bit. It’s Wade (Liam Cunningham’s character) who’s a lot more hardcore in the books. It’ll be interesting to see if/how he evolves as a character going forward. I...

Re: Unpopular Opinion - Video Game/Gaming Edition

For me, I think it's just they feel really out of place in that specific genre. Bloodborne is probably my favorite game of the past decade, and I loved those boss fights, as much of a pain in the ass...

Re: Unpopular Opinion - Video Game/Gaming Edition

As I was 'finishing' Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown last night, an opinion finally crystallized that I'm guessing isn't popular: most boss fights in 2D metroidvania games are annoying, consisting...

Re: Constellation (Apple TV+) — S: Noomi Rapace, Jonathan Banks — Sci-Fi Alternate Reality Thriller — 2/2

I was mistaken. We watched the penultimate episode this week and gave up. By then, it was such an incredible slog that we both agreed we didn't want to waste another hour on it. That's the first time...

Re: 3 Body Problem (Netflix) -- From the Creators of Game of Thrones -- premieres 3/21/24

Finished this tonight and they nailed it. I’m really impressed with the creative changes they made. I wouldn’t say those changes improved on the books, but they definitely made the series work better...

Re: Movies with long sequences that feel like they could be part of a separate movie

The Empty Man does this, but in a way I really enjoyed. The first 15-20 minutes feel like a completely different movie than the rest. Totally underrated and horribly marketed film.

Re: 3 Body Problem (Netflix) -- From the Creators of Game of Thrones -- premieres 3/21/24

My wife and I are five episodes in and really enjoying it. I've read the books and she hasn't. I feel like they made some really smart choices with the changes they made so far and can see how...

Re: Forspoken —> 1/23/23 —> PS5

So if anyone picks this up, here's one tip that I wish I'd known earlier on: you can upgrade the individual stats on your gear. When you start finding new cloaks and necklaces, the game shows you how...

Re: Constellation (Apple TV+) — S: Noomi Rapace, Jonathan Banks — Sci-Fi Alternate Reality Thriller — 2/2

My wife and I caught up on this this week. It’s a weird show. I feel like at this point, the plot is pretty straightforward for those focused on paying attention to it, but if you’re paying that...

Re: Forspoken —> 1/23/23 —> PS5

I picked this up on sale over the holidays and have just gotten around to it over the past couple weeks. I have to say, I feel like this is one of the most unfairly maligned games I've come across in...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I guess it depends how you’re playing. If you’re doing side quests and looting the areas you clear, I’d think so. IIRC, I was leveling pretty slowly until I got the Ikrun, then started moving up...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

Are you equipping new weapons and armor as you get them? ‘Leveling’ in this game is nearly entirely a function of the gear you have equipped.

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I remember the frustration you mention, but don’t recall when it went away and if it was from picking skills or some armor/mods I got. Eventually, it gets much easier to use a stealth approach,...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I didn't end up finishing this. I spent about 47 hours on it, visited the whole map and did quite a bit, but just got kind of bored by the end and didn't care at all about the story. I did enjoy the...

Re: Reacher (Amazon) -- Season 2 Thread -- premieres 12/15/23

I think a lot of those criticisms are dead on and fall 100% on the show's writers. I'm pretty sure none of the following happened in the book:

- Special forces providing support to Reacher &...

Re: Reacher (Amazon) -- Season 2 Thread -- premieres 12/15/23

I've read nearly all of the Jack Reacher books between the airing of the first and second seasons. First, Lee Child is a shit writer. Just terrible. If you took a drink every time he describes...

Re: Night Swim (2024, D: McGuire, EP: Wan/Blum) S: Wyatt Russell, Kerry Condon

I’ll stream this when it comes out just to see the explanation they give for people continuing to use the pool. With a haunted house movie, it’s usually some version of people being not being able to...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I’m a bit further in and agree it gets a ton better once you have the flying creature. I’d highly advise pushing through story missions until that unlocks. From there, the world is beautiful and, so...

Re: The Questyen's Favorite Games of 2023

That’s a very well-deserved (and predictable) number one. I can see myself revisiting it every year or two for a fresh playthrough. I would love if it did well enough for them to justify some DLC...

Re: The Questyen's Favorite Games of 2023

As always, enjoying the list Questyen. I like the addition of the DLC recommendations. It’s a good reminder that I still need to check out the add-ons for Horizon Forbidden West and RE: 4.

I’d...
