I think that post Godzilla Vs Kong the monsterverse tried leaning into the Tokusatsu feel of many Goji movies but i don't think they have managed to properly get that feeling, and yeah part of it is cuz the kaiju ain't suits, so it just looks bad instead of charming

I'm afraid young people no longer know what queerbaiting looks like and that a lot of them would unironically get queerbaited by a dog

I've talked about how much I genuinely do enjoy expedition 33 but goddam the glaze that game got tonight lmao. Silksong not getting anything at all is also wild (since that's the better game) but makes sense since team cherry had already said they weren't even gonna be there

My most elitist mindset when it comes to game critique is that you can't properly critique a game if you haven't played it even if the critique is aimed entirely at just the story and writing

As a big fan of a lot of game composers, I still believe gamers don't deserve most of them.
Gamers need more atmospheric music for games so they can shut the fuck up and accept that BotW hyrule field is a good track actually

Shipping is probably one of the more interesting sides of modern day fandom, and that kinda has to do with how much people ignore to end up getting their desired conclusions and how they actually gaslight themselves into thinking it happened.

Being a minority does not absolve you of being bigoted towards other minorities, it's sad to see happen but it's increasingly common to see someone put others down in the same way they'd be put down by white cishet society. A circle of bigotry that just keeps feeding itself and growing

Are Metroid fans finally going to admit that they've been overhyping Sylux so much when he was never anything other than a plot device?
