Like any time I see one on a forum or Reddit I'm often just like "why do you care?" It'd be one thing if there was like an attempt to survey or someone obviously looking for stuff to avoid, but these threads rarely declare such a purpose or even feel like that's the goal

I'mma be real the majority of "what's the worst [media]" threads come off as a weak excuse by the OP to complain about something without just making an open-and-shut thread, or an attempt to force a conversation that doesn't have much need to happen for the sake of it tbh

If the worst media you ever had to suffer through was a 4/10 letdown you're doing pretty darn well for yourself ngl

How All Nippon Airways has gotten away with that being their logo for the entire existence of the internet is beyond me

Surely they *know*, right

A lot of speedrunning historically was people replaying beloved childhood favorites. New games are like one casual playthrough and then a binge of activity routing and running and that tends to just lead to quick burnout. Nevermind how often big games come out and people move on from everything.

Anyway Pt 3 is probably Jons magnum opus but I'm also excited for pt 2 and especially pt 4 where we get the prequel to The Dumbest Boy Alive

That was his actual name, too! His name sounds like a friggin John Yakuza joke in a parody of the US president

(Not saying you're weird, but that people who show up in replies often are and I mighta came off as one of them)

Still feel the narrative strength to this game is in some of its 1000 years scenes. The last disc has a share of stumbles, even for as cool as the big shakeup in disc 3 is that it follows.

I figured not, the resemblance was enough that I thought to make a joke about it, forgetting for a second people got weird about that particular hand sign and that many are already weird here

Apologies about any misunderstanding, I think the pixel art doodle is cute

That was meant as a joke! I thought the glove looked like the circle game thing, nothing more

“Capcom were like, ‘we have all of those remakes. It’s already the superior experience to those games’”

The unfortunate reality for how some Development Studios treat their remakes. They cannot fathom why someone would want to play an "inferior" version of their game. Fuck, idk, maybe we want to?

Capcom was initially against GOG's request to add the original versions of Resident Evil 1, 2 and 3 to its store, and "took a lot of convincing" to agree to it, according to a GOG executive.
