@LukeAlmighty I saw zero marketing materials for this movie, even missed its starting date in the theaters for this exact reason

and yeah, Krypto pissing on the news of Superman heroism is in the movie: people use the papers as the material their small dogs pee onto, that's just what they do IRL

also Kara goes through the arc of being dismissive towards Clark being so goody-two-shoes to being more accepting of it, so there's that

maybe this movie is indeed not for chuds, but if I ignored things where the marketing was all about "no cooties territory", I probably wouldn't get into capeshit and videogames altogether, so there's that, too

just got to watching Supergirl (2026) 

it was... fine

not really my cup of tea, because I prefer not to mix my space adventures with capeshit, but it was definitely not the complete and utter failure the internet tried to portray this movie as

so, we got the second Supergirl movie hated for no good reason, because the general public can't stand anything else than the usual slop: if the main character was some kind of space Wolverine, this movie would be lauded as the "dark and gritty masterpiece about how it's hard to be a man who lost everything"

also the OG comic was penned by Tom King which automatically means it got hated by nerds unable to comprehend it (odd how they praise Nolan (or used to praise Nolan, lol) on the same grounds)
I haven't read it yet, but I just know it

@beardalaxy bear I can wrestle
a man could have a gun
can't wrestle someone with a gun

@beardalaxy the only reason not to play it is because it sucks, well, maybe also because it's awful, and in addition because it's bad

so that's three very good reasons

I've been a hater of Nolanslop since always, and while I think that there's not much difference between Hollywood ruining classics before and doing it now, this entire noise around The Odyssey feels like my big "TOLD YOU SO" moment

chat is my Marich cooked

he is supposed to have 20% of STR growth

@beardalaxy looks like it's a remaster/remake and it will be available on Steam with Russian language included, which is a treat :bunhdhappy:

@beardalaxy got new Fire Emblem and Touhou 6 on OG Switch, SSS+ rating

and as the new Fire Emblem is Three Houses' sequel, 3H haters are pissing and seething, I'll raise a glass to that

touhou 6 on switch 2 wasn't in my bingo card for today

@beardalaxy it was not a crowd of people standing around, sad or pretending to be sad, in the stinkiest and darkest room, listening to the most unpleasant sounds a human throat is able to make? and you didn't have to dodge a single grandma screaming like a banshee at you for breaking some rule she made up in her alcoholic delirium?

you weren't in an orthodox church

the children playing outside is true and it's perhaps the worst and saddest part, because they steal secular territories like the bandits they are: claim huge green territories and schools and then "benevolently" dedicate like 2x2 meters of plastic equipment for children to play, although again, not everywhere, because they're too busy being stuck up fat bitches: the higher up a priest is in the hierarchy, the fatter he is

or you could get a crit with 0 damage, because also fuck you

in fact, you will

and you WILL get a stat check fail even with dedicating all necessary effort in order to level it up; and you will not see some dialogue options because of that and it results in the player having no idea that it's even there

but hey, at least the prostitutes have over 1000 unique lines in New Reno and this game is regarded as a "milestone in LGBT representation" because you can have a same sex shotgun wedding

I heard the opinion that it was either that: the rushed game with reused everything, or nothing; and after completing the game I am of the opinion that nothing would be much better

the main quest? again, as the Russian meme says "go there, I don't know where, bring me something, I don't know what", resulting in loops like "need a strong packmule companion, in order to recruit him, need to fix the town's troubles, in order to do that, need a FUCKING POWER ARMOR, and in order to get a power armor, need to go to a high level location, and in order to do that, need a strong packmule companion, and in order to do that--"

"haha, what a loser, you can get endgame gear right after Arroyo", no, it's only viable if you're a nerd or just played this game previously: I played mostly blind

this was NOT pleasant

I didn't even get the car, because I carried a supposedly necessary thing through the entire map and it turned out to be not the thing I needed

yes, I had a meme build with 2 STR and 10 CHR, and guess what? I had that because the dear fans were repeating like a preacher does, that this was completely viable, and to be fair, yeah, I was able to complete the game, and again, in Fallout 1 the end felt incredibly enjoyable, like all the effort paid off, which was not the case in Fallout 2

my "mistake" was creating a character with 2 PER, because turns out it not just cripples you in fight (fine by me), but also blocks some quests because 10 INT and CHR apparently is *not* enough to persuade a grieving family into sharing their grievances, and maybe it would be fine, but in other quests the PC has NO problem noticing that something is wrong and someone is upset

it also cripples your abilities like First Aid; the funny thing is that items that are supposed to help, do not, because fuck you

but it's all borderline offtopic, because the end build doesn't matter: you are going to suffer even with the most min-maxed character, I've seen people playing those and still suffering from the stiff combat and dumdum AI and random encounters made of "10 vs 10 random bums and you have to wait while all of them complete their turns (+ you also spawned right in the middle between them because your PER is 2)"; and no matter how strong and invested and outfitted and min-maxed you are, you are NOT safe from some critical exploding in your face with "haha, 300 damage because fuck you"
