A netizen named “SunflowerSeedsMane” has been viciously trolling everyone who gave the film a score of 7/10 or above. We read thousands of online reviews, trying to understand this massive, massive failure. But why is this classic film doing so poorly (besides its terrible, terrible poster)? Sadly, this could mean a grim future for deeper, slow-burning sci-fi. From Kunshan to Kunming, folks are passing out in the theater or walking out and writing angry reviews. Because sometimes, your trip ends before the in-flight movie does, and you really don’t want to ask the pilot to circle the airport just so you can catch the finale.Bad news, folks! Blade Runner 2049 is a box office disaster – especially in China.Because sometimes, you fall asleep watching a mediocre rental, and would rather return it on time than pay two more bucks just to see the end.Because sometimes, your TiVo timer didn’t get it quite right, and cut off the crucial final minutes of something that won’t get shown again for six months.Because sometimes, you’re not interested in seeing that movie everyone’s talking about but are dying to know what the hubbub is about anyway.Because sometimes, you vaguely remember an old movie that had some sort of plot twist at the end of it, but can’t remember what it was.Because sometimes, the surprise “spoiler” ending is the only reason you’d pay $11 to see what is otherwise a turkey of a film.

This quote is like the yin to the last quotes yang. Usually, this voice line plays when a hero lands a killing blow on an enemy, which also helps! 14) “Mortality Clarified in a Single Strike.” Players will go through some extreme highs and devastating lows during a playthrough, but nothing gets me back in the fight, like hearing the ancestor’s wise yet gruff and weathered voice cheering me on with this statement. There are a lot of tense moments in Darkest Dungeon. No amount of inspirational quotes will fix these unfortunate souls now. This commentary is so good that we at Gamers Decide have put together this list for your reading pleasure enjoy. ![]() A large part of this is the ancestor’s commentary of your efforts. Darkest Dungeon has excellent gameplay like all good games, but the story and world-building set this game apart. The quips are limited to vicious cursing, gleeful celebrations of cruelty after a precision strike, and the occasional surprised exclamation that something good has happened for once. There are no doe-eyed youths fighting for justice to be found, only grizzled veterans, zealots, and criminals who share a lust for coin. Violence is neatly compartmentalized in one area, and the personality and sanity of the protagonists are kept safely quarantined away in another, never to meet. Nathan Drake, with his ability to break a man’s neck one minute and make a lighthearted quip the next, is the poster child for video game psychopathy. RPGs see parties of cheery young adventurers slaughter their way through entire countrysides worth of kobolds and giant rats for the sake of justice and good. ![]() ![]() Most games gloss right over the psychological effects of combat and stress. 1/19/2024 0 Comments Diablo 2 resurrection release dateThe situation has continued to grow worse over the past few weeks and most recently resulted in the exit of Blizzard president J. Blizzard has been under fire in recent weeks after the state of California filed a lawsuit against the publisher over allegations of harassment and sexism at the company. It's also worth noting that things could very much be in flux with Diablo II: Resurrected right now. Still, this could be an early access phase that might be available to some players ahead of its formal launch for everyone. ![]() Looking at the calendar, August 17 is actually a Tuesday, which seems like an odd day of the week for the beta to begin. As such, it's hard to know whether or not this August 17th date will end up being an accurate one. A remaster of the original and expansion titled Diablo II: Resurrection will be released in 2021 for Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox. In addition, it's slated to take place over the course of two different weekends. Veteran players, as well as those who missed out when the original game was first released on PC twenty years ago, can now experience Diablo II’s timeless gameplay with modern visuals and audio that take advantage of PS4 and PS5. ![]() Based on what we know right now, Blizzard has only gone so far to confirm that the Diablo II: Resurrected beta will be happening at some point this month. 1/18/2024 0 Comments Super battle tanks snes![]() TLV places a much heavier emphasis on puzzle solving and precise execution across very carefully crafted levels, whereas ARM is a much looser experience overall with long levels, an emphasis mostly on combat, and extremely simplistic puzzle-solving. ![]() They may appear very similar at a superficial level, but in reality they play almost nothing alike. But the more I played this game the more I felt like this wasn't painting a truly accurate picture of the two experiences. Both games also let you switch between the different characters with the press of a button in order to take advantage of each one's unique skillset. It seemed logical enough to me both games task you with herding three squatty rascals through a gauntlet of obstacles and hazards, evading or killing numerous enemies, and solving a number of puzzles in order to progress. The first draft of my Aaahh!!! Real Monsters review was more-or-less one long comparison to Blizzard's classic video game The Lost Vikings. I guess it speaks volumes about the quality of their library of games. ![]() Three Nick games in a row? Another coincidence, and something I didn't even notice until I was doing final revisions at the end here. 1/18/2024 0 Comments Roblox ban logsThis is the first official call-out of VPNs from the platform, and it doesn't put the useful tech tool in the most positive light.

Here's how the gaming platform explains it in the new community rules, under the “Unauthorized Access” header: But one ban in particular is a technical change that could do more harm than good. ![]() When 67% of your platform's users are 16 or younger, these preemptive cautionary measures make some sense. The new roblox tos shit is so fucking funny THEY BANNED HOLDING HANDS….no pda smh /pMgZD80qzR ![]() Many of the changes included bans on a wide range of activities, from banning giveaways and lotteries for the on-platform “Robux” currency to an unusual ban on “content that seeks or portrays romantic relationships” - up to and including hand holding. Roblox issued a big update to its Terms of Service agreement last week. The community guideline update is clearly aimed at protecting the platform's young userbase, but one question remains: Is it more safe to use a VPN because you'll avoid identity theft, or less safe to use a VPN because Roblox will delete your account? New Rules for Roblox Or at least, any “unauthorized use” of VPNs is banned, which is arguably even worse, given the lack of clarity around what might or might not be allowed. ![]() The online game creation platform Roblox has issued new community guidelines, banning VPN use for the service's 202 million monthly active users. 1/18/2024 0 Comments Royal squad super brawl 2![]() Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.

At the moment the line consists of five characters: Rallie Radmore, Cori Cruise, Charlie Lake, Jacy Masters, and Kenna Roswell. Thank God they are breaking that mold too, as I've always equated the "girl next door" image with mediocrity. The Wild Hearts Crew is Mattel's latest foray into the realm of edgy, trendy dolls that break the "girl next door" mold. Now, if you remember my Blume review you might recall that I spoke of the Wild Hearts Crew and my fondness for them. I had intended for my Facebook-free month to be a little more active, but it got hot again here in the Bootheel and work has been busy as well, so what's a girl to do? Yes, here it is officially fall, and I still break into a sweat when I move about inside my house. ![]() ![]() Hello, my little artichokes, it's RagingMoon1987 with another doll review for y'all.
