The Deleter

Catching bits and pieces of E3 so far. BotW sequel is cool so soon, but I'm worried it might not be that thematically distinct if it's using the same aesthetic and overworld as BotW tbh. Best case I can think of is if a majority of it takes place underground, while the overworld is re-contextualized into a horror/survival angle with undead invading/a heavier atmosphere, but eeeeh... I dunno. Feels like it'd be better suited as $40 DLC than an entirely new game for now tbh

On the other hand UNDERGROUND EXPLORATION BABY

EXACTLY what I felt BotW needed more of. If it is reusing the overworld, I hope Hyrule has been razed all over the place, rather than only under Hyrule Castle. Finding underground caves/ancient temples in inconspicuous places is my jaaaaam

Why is Promare Japan-only rn aaaaaaa I want to watch it so BAD

Alright, it's gonna keep me up until the sun rises, but I got tickets for Endgame the day it comes out! I'll be on the cutting-edge of the discussio

Also me: *sleeps for two days straight from exhaustion*

Meanwhile I'm over here watching Ant Man and the Wasp. More of the same, but I loved the first Ant Man so that's fine by me. For me they're the only actually good-feel movies of the marvel series; nothing too serious, and over the top for the sake of it, with a side of wholesome. Just what the doctor ordered, and it's nice to watch a Marvel movie where I can expect and embrace the cheesy wit/jokes, rather than begrudgingly dread how it might pop it's head around the corner the second it doesn't need to exist.

Now, on to the big guns...

Chair: *stubs my toe*

Me:

Sonic rehashes level tropes: where's the ORIGINALITY

Kirby rehashes the first world every game: wheeeeee 

Sonic does Monster of the Week: this is so lame WHERES EGGMAN

Kirby does Monster of the Week: Holy crap this boss is so dark and even better than the last one!

Shadow gets a gun: Ruined FOREVER

Kirby gets a gun: 8DDDDDD

The moral of this story is why can't Sonic fans be more like Kirby fans more often

They have so much fun and we don't it's not fair

Thinking about how Facebook's status bar asks, "What's on your mind?" then stopping ten words into my answer, realizing Facebook is made for everything but what's on my mind

Why are you like this

Y'know, Infinity War is pretty much the only reason I find myself caring about the MCU as a larger whole, looking back on it. With how many directors and directions each movie tended to have, it always felt like retcon was more inherent to the series than any real follow-through for the overarching plot, despite throwing in good ideas here and there that are mostly glossed over. But the way IW basically cherry picks every idea and direction that can work as a continuous narrative, ignores the rest, and builds it's entire identity as a climax around that and that alone... Almost makes the series work well enough, in spite of it all?

I'll always heavily prefer a tightly planned epic sprawling across multiple books/movies/seasons at the end of the day, but still, for a movie series that shouldn't work that well with how spitball it has been with its planning and management, it's pretty cool to see it coming together as neatly as Infinity War is pulling it off... even if it retcons things in the process as well...

*cough*whathappenedtoassholethanos*cough*

So the next Trigger anime is basically Rescue Heroes/Bots/any other campy preschool rescue shows, but mecha and on crack?

Obligatory action figures/toys or I riot, Toho

What Sonic comics

You mean Megadrive

Or the new IDW series

What's an Archie

The real reason Sony keeps shutting down their online servers is to create brief artificial demand for the poor regulars who have no one to play with in their favorite but dying games

Bless PS+ for enabling Sony to provide us with such effective services such as this 🙏 🙏 🙏
