Couldn’t care less about Gaitok and/or Mook. The three ladies felt like they should have been in another show. I love Jason Isaacs, Sam Rockwell, and Walton Goggins and felt like they could have been used more.
I felt like Belinda and “Gary” storyline was a little forced, but fine.
I think season 1 is my favourite. :::
lobut@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Tops 4.4 million sales - IGNEnglish11·6 days agoI self-inflicted some pain like that for me as well.
I got close to the end of Act 2 and my friend said that the difficulty was too easy and I was breezing pass everything and to switch it to Expert. Well guess what. I didn’t level, upgrade or put my Pictos in a way to deal with it. So most of my boss fights turned from a close-win into 45 minutes of me dying a lot. Like, I’d be one-shotted so often.
I then took some time and then cashed in some Lumina for stories and then actually put some strats in and went through the skill tree. I think it was worthwhile in the end but it totally changed the experience for me.
lobut@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•Day 425 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playingEnglish7·7 days agoI really wanted to like the remakes.
Playing the FF7 remake felt really dated in terms of a lot of things. After playing God of War and others, the cinematics felt cheesy and less cohesive now in FF … I didn’t care for much of any of the voice acting. A lot of the side quests didn’t fit “in world” to me. The heck do I care about some lost kittens? Why am I figuring out this time-wasting crane control? … Also, not sure what’s going on with the “ghosts”. I didn’t like the combat and found it annoying. Which is strange because I enjoyed FF15: The backstreet boys edition and even Guardians.
On the positives, I felt if I could take a screenshot of any part of the game and sent it back to the younger version of me … My mind would be blown. I’d just stop the game several times to just admire the scenery and the look.
spoilers!
Fighting Sephiroth so many times felt odd. I felt it feel off story-wise.
Everyone loves FF 7 remake and all that and I know I’m in minority but it put me off Rebirth. I’m happy other people enjoy it now though. I just wish I was one of them.

lobut@lemmy.cato Boycott US@lemmy.ca•Canada is leading the U.K. and France in boycotting American goods due to Trump’s tariffsEnglish9·8 days agoI talk to American friends about it and they’re like: “are you still thinking about that?” “we forgot about that a long while back”
it’s like geez … well it’s kinda important to us.
Thursday night I was at work drinks, I said I respect vegans and vegetarians because they do good for the environment.
Director was like, “I don’t believe that”
I laughed and said, “which? that they’re good for the environment? or global warming?”
“Global warming”
What came after was this guy saying how it’s all bullshit and I’m just like, “90+% of climate scientists would disagree though?” but he wasn’t really wanting a discussion. He wanted to get his talking points out. I was really taken aback.
City of God - movie about the struggles of growing up in a tough spot in Rio de Janeiro, it’s just great
Gattaca - my favourite sci fi film, it’s just a simple concept … what if we could tell who you were going to grow up to be, just from your blood
lol, it’s so good. I took a shot at Trump’s tariffs and how he’s driving me as a Canadian insane and someone was like, why don’t you pay attention to some other countries politics instead? like some other commonwealth country?
It’s like, why the fuck do you think …?
I’m a talkative person and also quite shy at times! I’ve been called both quiet and too loud/too much.
It happens. I don’t feel the need to put them down as I didn’t think that was their intent to do so to me.
lobut@lemmy.cato Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Thank G*d I grew up in the 90s. Everything is woke now. Smh my head14·18 days agoI think the patient was like a tyrant dude played by James Earl Jones: https://house.fandom.com/wiki/President_Dibala.
I mean, this journalist went out to intentionally date alt-right men:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU5gjuffw3E
I’m sure some of you guys have seen it. I’ve seen multiple videos and I think the first date was a guy that threatened to kill her before and that women like her would either be killed or be slaves or something like that. She also said that these men hang around left-leaning people and act and talk like them when they’re in front of others. So they seem to hide well too.
Part of it is age. I know everyone has had bullying issues growing. I did but I’m also aware enough to know that I was a bully too at times. Probably not physically but probably intellectually bullying my schoolmates and insulting people. A lot of that is internal insecurity and bullying I faced. A lot of the times we do mean things and don’t know why. If you’ve got kids, you’ve seen this a lot of times. Ignoring all of this and doing what you want is an important part of growing up. I’d like to think that I more often than not was pushing my friends towards their dreams and at times facing reality. However, I know sometimes I’ve definitely teased someone about their dream. I hope that they were strong enough to ignore my stupidity.
Have you thought about having kids?
lobut@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same householdEnglish101·20 days agoI’ll join you in the downvotes. There’s many reasons to hate YouTube. Asking them to pay for video content to everyone for free is a bit silly.
I’m also not saying you shouldn’t use alternatives or run an ad-blocker. Those are cool. I just find it funny how someone is saying: “I get some benefit in paying for this service” results in such backlash, lol.
They’re joking by referencing a bit: https://youtu.be/XLGzFQg_1xc
It’s not clear that they are so I can see the confusion.
