Re: I Just Watched (Films)
I've added pretty much all of his films to my watchlist (they're all on Disney+), but I'll probably watch them sparingly rather than one after another. I don't want any sort of familiarity with his style so that they land properly.

Re: I Just Watched (Films)
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou I'm not sure why this is only the second Wes Anderson film I've seen - I watched The Grand Budapest Hotel a few years ago and loved it. But anyway, I'm only 20 years late to the party. This is one of the most wonderful pieces of cinema I've seen in a long time, an...

Re: The F1 thread
It's official then.

A multi-year deal, apparently.

Re: The F1 thread
Yeah, that's possible which is why I didn't immediately think it a bad move, but Ferrari haven't produced a class-leading power unit in over a decade - even when they seemed to have an advantage everyone expected it was because they were cheating, as that advantage disappeared immediately after that...

Re: The F1 thread
Honestly if this goes through, it'll feel more like "I want to race for Ferrari before I retire" than "I want to move to a team where I can win". Still, the guy made probably the best career move in the history of the sport ten years ago, so who knows? The only thing that'll convince me this is a ba...

Re: General Gaming News
It just looks so wooden, no different to every other Obsidian game, and Bethesda RPG for that matter. What is it with these first-person RPGs and weirdly disconnected animation?

Re: General Gaming News
Looks like it could be decent, certainly better than the most recent film. The voice actor they've chosen for Indy is pretty good, if maybe a little flat sounding - he definitely has Ford's cadence down though.

Re: General Gaming News
No, but I have noticed that more of the ads are getting through whatever ad blocker I use. Quite often now I'll get a static image and the video won't play until I hit the Skip button.

Re: Currently Playing
I generally prefer Eternal's gameplay (although there's really not much between them, I just think Eternal's really stingy ammo reserves force the gameplay loop and it flows a little better as a result), but the setting, story and overall presentation of 2016 were better.

Re: Currently Playing
Parrying was an example, I was just meaning anything that needs that type of timing, it also applies to dodging or rolling through attacks. I just don't have the reaction times to do it these days, and they end up as tedious slogs of retrying.

Re: Currently Playing
Doom Eternal I don't think I've ever seen a comment from someone who actually likes the Marauder fights. They're not quite game-ruining, but they really kill the game's pace, and the pace is one of the game's best features. It feels like the devs wanted to put an element of Dark Souls or its ilk in...

Re: Suicide Squad: Kill the Rocksteady Legacy
A minor game design choice that's always bugged me; characters that fire a grappling hook into the sky (ie: off the top of the screen) to swing around, but without there being a sensible thing for that grappling hook to attach to. I think in this they're explaining that away with there being some so...

Re: Suicide Squad: Kill the Rocksteady Legacy
Was this always designed to appeal to the arcade hero-shooter / MOBA crowd or have they bolted that stuff on recently? I always assumed it was going to be a co-op Arkham-style game. Either way, the on-screen score counter and obvious loot crates mean I won't be bothering (although as the Arkham game...

I'm pretty sure that was the plot of season 2.

Re: General Film News
I don't tend to like it when shows end with a film, as I rarely think two hours is enough time to close all of the plot threads that lead up to that point, and they inevitably feel rushed. I think writers try to shoehorn in the endings they'd originally planned and they tend to be unsatisfying as a ...
