    Bad, I was already in a less than stellar mental state and now I have to deal with the fact that the people who rather I didn't exist are now in charge.

    I'm with ZeroGee on this one, this video is actually worth the length, she doesn't just go off on an angry tirade for 4 hours she actually manages to articulate her points well and shes a bit silly so it's quite entertaining to watch.

    Yeah I'll wait until I can watch if for free and if I can't I'll likely never care.

    I'm gunna have to disagree this would be my vote for worst trailer of all time but the "section 31" trailer is a close second.

    People keep insisting lower decks is good and I'm left wondering if we are watching the same show because it is just as cringe inducing as Discovery/ Picard in my opinion. I just don't find any of it funny, I have laughed more watching DS9. That experience made me extremely reluctant to watch Strange New Worlds, I am glad I did because its great but I still can't figure out the appeal of The Lower Decks.

    I dealt with mine by simply never speaking to them again, unfortunately that doesn't work for everyone but it sure was effective.

    The first one was a terrible ripoff of a mediocre film, I don't know how anyone expected this one to be any good.

    I'm replaying Psychonauts for the 100th or so time on my steam deck because its the best game ever hands down, I'm trying to get into Fallout London but it crashes consistently every time I enter the swan and mitre (on multiple machines) so I've stopped caring and shelved it. Also replaying Metro Exodus as well which is pretty decent as far as shooters go.

    Trying to resell a game that anyone interested in playing already has seems like a bad idea to me. I'm not sure how they thought it would be a huge success. Just make a new game or if you want to be lazy a sequel, folks would probably go nuts for a sequel to braid.
