I want to believe, I really do, but basically every “new version of thing I loved from childhood” has been profoundly disappointing.

My guess: [bad guy] comes back because [good guy] is actually bad guy now, in a complete reversal of their entire character growth arc, and [bad thing that we took care of in the last show] is back because [history erasing lazy writing so they can just tell the same story again].

I see you have also seen [show/movie brought back after a long gap]!

Keep the gates closed but acquire the same goods via the port.

I feel like the only really good Bethesda game besides Skyrim that I've played is Dishonored, and coincidentally that's the one developer/studio that Bethesda decided to close down

Haven't you tried previous elder scrolls ? Oblivion ? Morrowind ?

[–] REDACTED 3 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Nope. My first Elder Scrolls was Skyrim. My first Fallout was 4, which felt kinda meh.

EDIT for better context: I was born in soviet union and we didn't really get western games, only some specific ones that got translated like Might of Magic 6-8

Someone once pointed out that in this meme, the gate controller is shouting commands to himself. Now I can't unsee it, and neither should you.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 3 points 21 hours ago

The gate has at least two chains, he's operating one chain and shouting to the person operating the chain on the other side.

Fallout was fucking awesome. If you’re into Fallout that is, which I am.

[–] CovfefeKills@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

It's pretty awesome even if you are not into Fallout.

[–] biofaust@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

That's just accepting cold shit as if it better than hot fuming shit.

Just watch some good non-American production and thank me later.

None of the stuff I'm reading comments on the large following sg1 had due to it's realistic depiction of military life (sans the obvious science fiction aspects). I know a fair amount of veterans who found watching it validating to the both positive and negative aspects of their lived experience (I interact a decent amount with veterans after the us military industrial complex is done chewing them up and spitting them out for the promise of alleviating their poverty).

Plenty of Amazon shows are also shit. Just like how Netflix and all the others have a mix of good shows and bad shows.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 20 hours ago

good omens? if that even comes back for a final season. sandman for netflix you can tell how cheap the set is,right up to thier clothes and props.

[–] Sunflier@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's not going to be a total reboot either! Same universe as produced that had Jack O'Neil played by Richard Dean Anderson. I hope they guest star Amanda Tapping at least once.

Or, what if the whole thing is about the Ancients before they ascended?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

Ugh I don't need some angsty ancients romcom.

I need C4, godslayers in green jumpsuits, and major intergalactic diplomatic incidents god dam it.

But what about the rings of power?

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

its going to be like ROP, sloppy series, poorly written or sourced material? or trying to copy kurtzmans disastrous run on TREK series.

Carnival Row wasn't too bad either IMO

The money comes from somewhere shitty always with these things. All you can do is hope they stay out of it as much as possible and let the artists do their thing

Remember, you can always watch it on the Skulls and Crossbones streaming platform. Or a torrent of other places.
