  • Graeber's "The Dawn of Everything" is a book one should definitely consider going through during their lifetime. A monumental work, really.

    I'm a leftist too

    I think Graeber lived a very bad life, I read some stuff from him and he was mentioning he would smoke weed with a friend even in his later life

    But idk about what he wrote

    I need to read this book
    2020 really was such a shitshow of a year for gaming compared to 2019. You've got Doom Eternal and Nioh 2 at the start of the year, Hades in September, and that's about it. TLOU2 = kek. RE3 demake = a brutal slap in the face. FFVII resequel = a disappointing mess with some good bits. Demon's Souls repaint = art direction assassination. Ghosts ot Tsushima = mediocre slop. AC Valhalla = even more mediocre slop.

    Meanwhile, 2019 had a line-up like this:
    Sekiro;
    Jedi: Fallen Order;
    DMC5;
    RE2 remake;
    Metro Exodus;
    Age of Empires 2: DE;
    Remnant: From The Ashes;
    Blasphemous;
    Outer Wilds;
    Disco Elysium;
    Slay the Spire.

    And that's not even all of it. Bloodstained: RoTN & Pathologic 2, etc.
    I can't help but occasionally reminisce about just how badly Netflix fucked up with the Witcher. They get arguably the best fantasy franchise (imo) on their hands and pick cretins who would rather mock the source material than adapt it with competency and respect, nevermind real passion.

    Activists always focus on social engineering and propaganda first, the source material is just an excuse or vehicle for them to push their agenda.
    The Clone Wars is overrated a fair bit. It's got a a number of genuinely good arcs (Umbara, Ahsoka being framed, Maul stuff), but a decent chunk of the show is slightly painful to watch (especially early on).

    A couple of hot takes I guess:
    - TCW Anakin is a solid character without any context, but fails as a portrayal of Anakin.
    - TCW Dooku is very mediocre. TCW Grievous is atrocious, but that's not a hot take.
    My top 10 favourite B-man rogues list:

    1. Riddler
    2. Clayface
    3. Joker
    4. Two-Face
    5. Catwoman
    6. Ra’s al Ghul
    7. Penguin
    8. Mr. Freeze
    9. Poison Ivy
    10. Mad Hatter
    Maturing is realizing that Riddler is the best Batman rogue.

    Jonkler has a couple higher peaks, but Riddler is more consistent in quality throughout his various incarnations imo. Plus, the Jonkler fatigue is real, there's an overexposure of this clown.

    Riddler ain't underrated lol, he's one of the most highlighted batman villains in movies/cartoons/Games etc

    Yeah, someone like Ventriloquist is who I'd consider actually underrated. Mad Hatter too.
    Man, I truly deplore the fact that the sheer multilayered complexity of the internet is still not a foolproof guarantee of even recent-ish stuff not becoming lost media. Roughly a decade ago there was a particular dude on YT who narrated a 100+ generally solid-to-great horror short stories. His channel is technically still around, but six years ago he made a massive rebrand and chose to delete all his previous
    Now you will have to get into Nightreign lore. Lol

    So NR has actual legit lore?! Thought it was some cobbled together fanfic-tier trite after that asset reuse galore of an announcement trailer. Saw it once and didn't look back lmao.

    Oh yes. Nightreign has big boy lore lol. I’ll let you judge its quality but generally speaking Nightreign has highly regarded lore that adds a lot of insight to the base game. I personally think Nightreign’s lore is amazing lol
    Maybe a bit of a hot take to some, but...

    Blue Batman suit > black Batman suit as a rule of thumb.

    Not exacly a hot take, Neil Adams Batman might be the most iconic Batman from 70s-90s
    So you steal jeans? Kinda shady bro...
