and to think Cartoon Network could’ve had My Adventures with Superman, Unicorn Warriors Eternal, and Batman Caped Crusader…but alas…money problems lead to Adult Swim taking the first 2, and Amazon stole the bat

I mean technically it does just as questionable time slots. Still, Superman is popping off and I hope warriors eternal did too. But really deserve more attention.

Negativity bias is such a killer. Honestly not just in gaming discourse but online discourse in general.

People can get so passionate that some forget why they were passionate in the first place. Because video games are fun.

If you're raging about them all the time...it kinda defeats the purpose of playing them in the first place, doesn't it?

It's part of the reason why I mostly play solo games now. A few multiplayer games I play are mostly pve. Like Deep Rock Galatic, which might have the best fan base I've ever seen.

Reminds me of college when my roommate would always play call of duty but also always scream, rage, and swear he’ll never touch the game again after losing a match. Rinse and repeat for two years.

To be fair, the riot shield and throwing knife combo was OP as **** for no reason. :nifty:

Does anyone else get kind of depressed regarding gaming discourse sometimes? It's all so negative sometimes.
As I said in the past that is related to this

Animal Crossing New Horizons is a good game when you don't have a little ***** in your ear telling you it's bad

I feel like there’s a fine line between criticism and just ragging on something for the sake of ragging. With criticism you mention what could be better and point out the positives so it’s not just saying “THING BAD”

One time I was on discord talking about ACNH and this one prick would not shut up about New leaf being better.

..well okay, it is better in my opinion, but I'm not smearing it all over peoples' faces. Why make yourself a nuisance when you could just enjoy the game you're playing and... not play the one you dislike?

This is why I'm an introvert. These people can't be reasoned with, and it's too bothersome to try.

God ****ing damn it, i hate those New Leaf elitests. I love New Leaf as much as the next guy but it wasnt THAT great. **** the public work projects. I didn't spend all that time in the water just for a villager to tell me how much they love me and not give me a public work project

THIS. I feel like this is especially bad with online multiplayer games.

It's perfectly normal to have criticisms, more so if you genuinely want a game to improve, but in the online game playerbase it often just turns into irrational complaints on a constant basis. And yet, a lot of these same players seem to continue to play the same game they supposedly detest and consider largely unbalanced anyway. Like, you either enjoy the game or you don't.

It's better to look at the positives, too, and if you can't find any, well, maybe it's best that you stop simply playing the game in question. Find and focus on other games you do enjoy instead.

I'm very quickly growing disillusioned with my new job. It's not awful by any means, and there's a lot of positives too, but I dunno man. It's complicated. However, it took me so goddamn long to find a job that I'm very hesitant to just leave.

I start college at the end of the month, and I know they have programs to help students find jobs in or around the school. So I'm gonna stick it out for the next few weeks and then try my luck there.

Or maybe it'll get better, and I won't even want to quit anymore. Who knows :drshrug:

I work at a Kohl's. I do all sorts of stuff, but I mostly handle unpacking the freight truck.

It's not bad, but it's tedious. And my manager is constantly singling me out for reasons I'm not exactly sure about :090:
Retail is hell, and your boss can’t cope with him also having a retail job in which he has responsibilities. Either that or he’s bigoted.

If you get forklift certified or any other kind of training, a warehouse job is the same with none of the customer service, a higher pay, and it’s usually quieter. Speaking from current experience, I’m $25/hr and I don’t feel like I’m doing $25/hr work most of the time.

If you make one post about Raid then I deserve a cut of your high-ass payout. :iwatadirect:

My biggest problems with new horizons were the holidays were much of the same and should have changed yearly, and you couldn’t place objects on higher layers or make paths and bridges on higher layers.

Being able to make a two story town or so, would be so damn cool and it was all right there.

Finally saw the new Invincible episode

It had a really well animated fight scene towards the climax. It was also pretty good and stuff in general, can't wait for season 2
I really hope we get more of these in between stories. There’s so much to add to the characterization of everyone and this special nailed. Really set up why eve has the mindset she does in present day and is a great story about coming to terms with a trauma and expectations.

I just learned that season 2 is being split in two, we're only getting four episodes in November

That's a shame

Paramount+ now has the first 4 TMNT movies (aka the ones that WBD made), alongside the 2003, 2012, and Rise series. So now all 6 TMNT theatrical movies are under their control

87 Turtles (and the Batman vs TMNT movie)…y’all next
