    SPOILERS What do you think of the popular 'whispers = the fans' interpretation?

    They care about things that fans care about, and don't care about things that time guardians would care about. They keep Yuffie out of 7th Heaven but not Deepground, and stop Hojo from giving game spoilers but don't kill Darkstar. They're the fans. Fortunately, it's more funny than anything else.

    The Wheel of Time (TV show)

    It's a lot like Rings of Power. The less you know about the books, the better it looks. As a new story, it's not too bad, but as an adaptation, uhh, well, there is a lot of divergence. Season 1 was hit hard by Covid and they lost a lead actor, so everything changed from there. Season 2...

    Playstation 5

    The PS5 EULA has some pretty demented things in it. "To the fullest extent permitted by law, Residents of the Unitd States, countries in North, Central, or South America, Japan, or country/area located in East Asia or Southeast Asia, you hereby waive any rights or expectations of privacy...

    The Last of Us HBO Series

    The TV show infected share the game trait of randomly spawning giant hordes at dramatically appropriate moments it appears.

    The Last of Us HBO Series

    It's an interesting one. Would I be watching this If I hadn't played the games? Probably not. They're doing a solid job, but I don't know how much credit to give, because it's very easy to adapt, the material is basically standard zombie story anyway.

    Forspoken [aka Project Athia]

    Lacking a PS5 I Youtubed the first couple of hours. Seems okay. I don't think there's been an actual problem with the dialogue, she's unnecessarily quippy, but that's standard protagonist personality. I think you could almost say it's a more realistic reaction to being suddenly dragged into a...

    Is there any way the gaming community can help the push for unionisation?

    The Last of Us HBO Series

    Eh, zombie apocalypses run on magic anyway, it's why they always have to skip forward from outbreak day to 'later time when outbreak has passed', because no one can think of a way to make that actually make sense. I doubt they are actually going to do the hivemind thing, makes it too difficult...

    I suspect they will drop him as soon as the movie leaves theaters.

    Final Fantasy Type-0 Thread

    Just finished playthrough 1. Great game. I seem to be missing a lot of lore on what's going on, sad they went for 'break the chains of fate' AGAIN, but overall really well done. The gameworld overall is fairly boring between missions, and there's not much reason to explore because you just get...

    Crisis Core -FFVII- Reunion General Discussion

    Hope you're okay, Fangu. Enjoy the game and/or not playing as you deem appropriate. There is a lot of unknowns in all this. I imagine they will get answered in new instalments. It's not very clear how Genesis can menace the planet, or why the planet should care about him. Something weird is...

    Crisis Core -FFVII- Reunion General Discussion

    Welcome back, X. True to form, I'm going to disagree. I don't know... Minerva doesn't show up until well after Genesis is healed and just after he's been already thoroughly defeated, he reaches out to her, and then she vanishes. That looks like rejection, not a gift, and Genesis isn't the one...

    Crisis Core -FFVII- Reunion General Discussion

    Done. Level 35, 24%missions. Interestingly, the 6 star missions are mostly where it gets too tough for me at this point, at fairly handily getting through the endgame. The timing of this release implies that we will get more CC lore in remake part 2. Interesting. This is a very good game. The...

    Crisis Core -FFVII- Reunion General Discussion

    Just heading for Nibelheim now.24% of missions done, but I'm sick of them. They serve their purpose, but make me overlevelled, and I don't like being overlevelled. But some of them have storytelling considerations. Think I might have to try a no missions run at some point. Genesis and Angeal...

    Crisis Core -FFVII- Reunion General Discussion

    Nice to play this for the first time. I know the story, but now I get to know all the NPCS and soak in the detail.Wish there ws a way to zoom in on things like Angeal's photos. I wonder what my fics would have been like with this knowledge...New voice actors are jarring, not going to lie. And...
