I’m 40 and I’d rather play a video game than watch a movie.

Techreport is another one I used to read all the time, but it got bought out and is a shambling corpse of it’s former self.

Whoever is recording that really needs to clean the lens.

The B-wing was so cool when I was a kid. Star Wars does asymmetrical ships so well.

I always loved the Mon Cal cruisers!

Ooh Night in the Woods was good.

Gregg rulz ok

So I played it for a while several years ago and kinda got bored with it. I got to the bottom of the mine and had married one of the characters, and my farm (such as it was) was mostly automated so not much to do there. I know there are a bunch of story moments but I got tired of wandering around randomly trying to meet the conditions to trigger them. I wanted it to happen organically without looking it up. I just felt like I ran out of things to do and there was no point to keep playing.

At the same time, I want to play it on my Steam Deck because I did enjoy what I did play!

That’s what I thought too, and then I got sucked in. I watched it a few weeks ago, I usually love her Star Wars stuff but this felt too long…nope.

Hmmm I think my expectations were set incorrectly for this show. From the rumblings I heard before the premiere, it was on a similair level as Andor and was kind of a murder mystery thing. It is nothing like Andor (so far) and the murder ‘mystery’ was solved (at least for the viewers) at the end of the first episode. I was excited about the possibility of ‘Law & Order in space with Jedi’ since it seemed like a fresh genre for Star Wars but this…is more like ‘generic Star Wars plot line #45’. I plan to keep watching because the High Republic era is interesting, but the story has been bleh so far for me.

Also weird that Carrie-Anne Moss figured so prominently in the hype & advertising just to be killed off in the first few minutes. If I was excited that she was in the show (I was ambivalent towards it myself) I would be super mad about that.

I’m afraid Andor has ruined me when it comes to Star Wars media. :-/

That video was fantastic.

Islets. First Metroidvania I’ve ever tried and I love it.

Yeah that first line irritates me. What is weird about Mara Jade? She was great and the Thrawn Trilogy should be episodes 7-9.

I keep meaning to pick this one up! I’ve got so many games on my wishlist and so little money lol.

Man, Boba Fett was really the Darth Maul of his day.

Man this reminds me of how excited I was for the sequels.

Is that from Lost in Space movie from the 90s?

Always wild to me that this is Del from TCaP.

Ace Combat 7. Never played one before and loving the just-right arcade feel of the controls.

Yeah Andor just raised the bar on what Star Wars can be and it’s definitely put the rest of the shows in a different light. Season 1 Mandalorian was a similar revelation.

Also think Thrawn looks like blue Elon Musk lol.
