A speculative evolution TV show inspired by Walking With Dinosaurs.

Season 1: Examining the evolution of the planet in a hypothetical where the meteorite never hit, and dinosaurs never went extinct

Season 2: Examining the evolution of the planet in a hypothetical where humans never evolved and ****ed up the biosphere with agriculture and architecture and the concept of hunting for sport. and global expeditions bringing invasive species where they aren't supposed to be.

Actual scientists would be involved. What do you think?

So, my final thoughts on Gen 8? It was... a generation that existed.

SwSh was an ok game, it was somewhat of a letdown given that the three gens before it kinda outdid it in nearly every way, especially coming off of the SuMo duology. It had some great ideas that was just not fully realized yet, and the DLC really showed us what the future had in store so I do appreciate it on that level. In fact, the DLC really carried an otherwise barren game, that said I didn't even do all of the Crown Tundra (should probably do that eventually). Some good, mostly mid, not much truly bad aside from the story. It was... jist a game.

BDSP is... one of the remakes out there. I mean, it works pretty well, and it's nice having a version of DP that doesn't suck donkey ass. I had fun, more fun than SwSh, but I had one huge issue with the game: the pacing is genuinelly awful to me. BDSP built off the old pre-Gen 5 experience a little too well, and mid game it was just a slog. Getting interrupted every 5 steps for a Trainer Battle, random encounters return for 0 reason and are far worse than previous gens, introduces lots of story elements that go nowhere or are just shoehorned into the plot, battles are slow as ****, etc. Victory Road and Mount Coronet have to be the worst designed dungeons in the entire series jesus **** were they just AWFUL in every regard. I was burnt by the time I hit the Elite 4, and Cynthia just wasn't fun to fight for me. Appreciate the added difficulty but the journey to here was just ugh. I have 0 intentons going back to this one

Legends Arceus was peak though. Great bounceback, fun game, appreciate the flexability, decent story and lore, really all I can ask for. Can't say much else, it's just a really fun game.

Well.......better to post now rather then later. What is going to be your starter pick? From Nintendo themselves asking us the same exhausting impossible choice.

I’ve been with Fuecoco from day one, and that ain’t changing.

Gotta rep the Kremling Krew :denzel:

You know, for a thead filled with a bunch of losers animation nerds, you would think that you'd see more hype for Disney's Strange World.

Is... anyone seeing it?

I wish I was excited for the film. I grew up loving with Atlantis: The Lost Empire (with warts and all) so Strange World should be up my alley. From the trailers I have seen, I'm not getting a sense of wonder from the film. It seems too... commercial. The actors sound like they are not really invested into the film. Strange World just isn't clicking with me.

Finished Okami and Started up a bit of NG+ on another file. I'm guessing there's only 8 Karmic Transformations right, cause I think I got them all. The game more or less said I didn't die at all either. Since I kept all my cash and all my health/ink upgrades. I could probably blitz the game on a 2nd run. Getting Power Slash 2 or Bomb 2 would for sure be faster cause I've got cash for days and I don't really need that many more items now. For the most part I really liked it, but some parts were wonky like getting the infinity symbol to read properly, but most of my issues I THINK were pertaining to the Switch Joy-Cons being what they are.

I still hate fighting Orochi cause bosses where you gotta wait around for so long are not my thing. A little waiting is fine, but geez. Venom in Ultimate Spider-Man? Raw. Vergil? Raw. 2/3rds of Sigma fights? Raw.

Crocodile, I even have most of my team thought out.

Granted, I might wait to get the game when/if the DLC drops and see what I'll really like overall. Cause I got other games I gotta try and get to as well.

makes me wonder how Insomniac is gonna tackle the Venom fights
Click to expand...
Well, hopefully closer to Ultimate Spider-Man's style. Since Venom's fights were spaced out like Vergil battles more or less. And got less gimmicky with one, so the last fight was mostly just hands.

But there's certainly room for improvement.

We have neglected and abused the animal kingdom for generations...

Edit: No wonder we hairless apes dominate the planet and think of animals as lesser pathetic beings sometimes.

It's so cruel and so unfair. If anything we are the lesser and pathetic beings because we're the only creatures we know of capable of reaching such destructive heights.

combine that with some sad stuff involving Harry (along with some teases of Green Goblin), and it could be Spidey’s best final boss fight of all time

Maybe, but I'm still holding on to some Hopium that Eddie Brock gets the suit. And we fight the real Venom.

Here we stand. The brink of a third world war. So many animals on the brink of extinction. And we all know how one effects the other. When we emerge the other side, we will have a more barren and sad planet. And we still will not have learned anything.

Now, we got to worry about gameplay videos from people that have an early copy of the game. (Or those that uses a switch emulator to bypass waiting. -_-)

Fuecoco. I had a feeling its evolution was the least likely to screw up from a design standpoint and was right
