I told you so, and I don't hate to say it.

Live action + Netflix = Death sentence. So many people were getting hyped about this, that it was going to be better than Shyamalan's Avatar. "It has the original writers of the cartoon, that means it's going to be great!" Well, it's missing one of them, that being the guy who didn't work on Korra. I knew this was going to be bad before it was even announced.

any poison fans here?

I'm noticing a lot of high schoolers graduating early these days. When I was there I think maybe 1 or 2 people in my graduating class did. Now it seems like every other teenager I talk to is doing it. I think even they're fed up with the public school system. If you can't have fun while you're in high school like the old days and everything you learn is full of shit why bother sticking around? Like I keep saying, a lot of them are smarter than we give them credit for.

or, if a game is actually good, the company is shit. i know i really shouldn't but my dumb ass is still going to buy the new princess peach game coming out because it genuinely looks like a lot of fun, even though nintendo is a shitty company. capcom, sega, and bamco are participating in identity politics bullshit that harms the games and means they will age extremely poorly and only be trendy with an audience that shouldn't be their target demographic for a short period of time. do you really think any real persona fan is going to think of the p3 remake when they go to replay the game?

like, even if these games end up being good overall, the people producing them and sometimes even the people developing them seem like they give no shits about the legacy of the games and have no interest in making something objectively good. they are trend chasers at best and malicious at worst.

i'm always like 5 seconds away from never playing another new video game ever again. they're just getting more and more shitty. it's not even nostalgia talking because i can go back and play old games i've never played before and find them way more fun than the new slop that comes out. even if it is extremely refined slop, there's still something missing. even something like baldur's gate 3 which was by all accounts an amazing game did absolutely nothing to hook me beyond the 4 hours i played.

half life, FEAR, and portal are games i have played within the last couple of years i hadn't before. they are absolute gems that are still better than the vast majority of shit that's come out in the past decade.
