BaronVonBort,

Look. I have enjoyed the last season. But the show has never escaped its fatal flaw of being in its own way. The finale of season 4 was great Trek, and this season has been good.

But it took how many months of retooling to give us the last season? And I appreciate finding a stride and having the show cancelled (as someone who will defend ENT constantly for this I’ll hear it all) but this isn’t the same case. They tried so many ways to make DIS work and it has hit and missed in different ways, but tying it to one story over the course of a whole season and making that the glue, and not allowing for other characters to be established, is still there. I still have no idea who the majority of the bridge crew are, and I feel there are characters that are overused and others that are criminally underused (can we just get a Reno spinoff please?)

This is a swan song, but personally I’m glad it gets to end on a high note. But let’s see it for what it has been.

BaronVonBort,

I never thought I’d have to say “thank god the less insane Dade Phelan won the runoff”

God I hate living in this state.

FREEDOM IS NOT OPTIONAL

BaronVonBort,

And D&D Beyond is another great example - you have shit tons of material and a source that was built by someone else, you buy it and do nothing with it? And it’s not intuitive and lacks basic features?

I’m super excited to see what kind of microtransaction laced minimal effort game we get from them.

BaronVonBort,
  • Tries to improve game
  • makes everything significantly worse

Yep, classic Bethesda.

BaronVonBort,

Can we just make a rule to disallow USA Today posts?

BaronVonBort,

You like D&D, Audrey Hepburn, Fangoria, Harry Houdini, and croquet. You can’t swim, you can’t dance, and you don’t know karate. Face it, you’re never gonna make it.

Could the Federation defeat Star Wars' Empire in an all-out war?

Would a Federation warship like the Defiant out gun a Star Wars Star Destroyer? Who has a bigger armada? Who has the tactical advantage? Don’t forget that The Federation includes the Klingons, who love warfare and have fast, agile, heavily armed ships, with cloaking devices, and the Vulcans with superior logic and tactical...

BaronVonBort,

The Q vs the Jedi would be something I’d pay to watch though.

BaronVonBort,

I wish Pinchy was here to enjoy this!

BaronVonBort,

According to a top-loud and repeating PSA in a doctors office I was stuck in for too long, the toast thing is a myth.

BaronVonBort,

He has the most dialogue in the entire show.

BaronVonBort,

That you don’t need to worry about so much.

BaronVonBort,

I’ve been fascinated by propaganda all my life, and being able to take exactly what people are actually doing and twist it using an ingrained cultural perspective is so incredibly easy and effective.

    I don’t mind. Fuck all those people.

    BaronVonBort,

    Obligatory “if you’ve never seen the Defunctland series about Jim Henson you should because it is great” post.

    BaronVonBort,

    You want me to show it to the cat? Cause the cat’s gonna get it!

    BaronVonBort,

    Kojima and cyborg ninjas - name a more iconic combo

    BaronVonBort,

    When he starts telling you to kill brunettes, you may want to let someone know. Son of Ralph just doesn’t have the same flair.

    BaronVonBort,

    I enjoyed it but I also know that it wasn’t “great”. But I’ll admit that I got it on game pass and I’m a BES nerd, so that probably elevates it more. Had I paid full price my attitude would probably be very different.

    BaronVonBort,

    What they need to do is take whoever the next director of the game is going to be, strap them to a chair Clockwork Orange style and mix the entire Criterion Collection and Evangelion for about a year or two.

    Then just for good measure have them write a page of names and slap them anytime a name nears anything of normal.

    Then, and only then, should they be allowed to start working.

    BaronVonBort,

    Now, if only they could fix this cash cow where it didn’t glitch out every half hour, they’d be set.

    BaronVonBort,

    Well maybe I’m just a console pleb, playing it on my series S, but I have issues where it hangs on load screens, times where I’m landing my ship and it just disappears and won’t let me out, or just times where it simply crashes.

    Not to mention quest breaking bugs and other things I’ve experienced. But what the hell, I guess I should just upgrade my computer, right Todd?

    BaronVonBort,

    Ballmer actually really wanted that THPS 3&4 remaster.

    BaronVonBort,

    That union vote came at just the right time then, huh.
