  1. Well, I'll just TLDR it then. Battery technology is barely improving. It improves at snails pace and those improvements are tied to rare materials.
  2. Sweet Baby Inc decided to make a mountain out of the tiniest of mole hills and it's blown up in their face epically. No one really knew who they were before they attacked Kabrutus over Sweet Baby Inc Detected. Now people are aware of them and not in positive light. So now some publishers/developers are trying to hide Sweet Baby Inc's involvement in their games.....which has had the effect you think it would have.
  3. Batteries are actually the issue, despite the tremendous amounts of money spend on R&D battery technology really isn't improving that much. Their are incremental improvements but not any major jumps. It's the boat anchor of sorts. The best analogy I can think of is Cache on CPUs and GPUs. They aren't getting smaller with die shrinks anymore. It's part of the reason, AMD has cache on it's own separate 6nm dies on it's latest GPUs, while everything else is on a 5nm die.
  4. Ah then my bad @iStu X. Nothing wrong with wanting something new.
  5. @AriesWarlockI'm not even a Cyclops guys and they had me marking out for him. They really Cyclops and Storm justice when it comes to their powers.
  6. I don't really think this a spoiler, but why chance it. This character's strength finally got shown off.
  7. Rock gets to the last boss. Suddenly, they get taken out by a Himmilische Atem, but plot twist it's not from Kain it's from Marie 😮
  8. Fuck yeah! Comin' again to save the motherfuckin' day, yeah 😉
  9. I can understand wanting something different. I can't understand wanting that from X-Men 97. It's a direct continuation of the 90s cartoon that literally picks up where it left of. It should carry forth the tone of that 90s show. That's the basic premise to the show and what it's always been presented as.
  10. Speaking of Cyclops, kudos to Ray Chase for stepping into the role so well. Norman Spencer unfortunately passed away. Although not to same scale, he's the voice I hear when I see Cyclops. Probably due to all the Capcom fighters I played subsequent to watching the X-men animated series.
  11. @RegH81I'll say what I said on the Marvel thread. If Beau DeMayo didn't so do some criminal shit. Get him back. The show actually felt like a continuation of the original. It's only two episodes but if this is what the show will be, then he knocked it out the park.
  12. Just watched the first two episodes, if this is indicative of what the show will be let Beau DeMayo did what he said he would do. The show was damned good. If the man has personality issues, get him him some counseling, and get him back on the show. As long as what he did wasn't criminal work this shit out.
  13. I literally have zero interest in Bison. Vega is meh to me. Maybe they'll do something intersting with him but not really too hopeful to be honest. Bison, from a narrative stand point, is just over done. I was hoping we'd finally get some sort of new direction. This makes me appreciate the saga format of the KOF series. Capcom should just, like SNK did in the past, do the ocassional "Dream Match" style game where they go through multitudes of characters in regardless of the story. Having this constant need for Shadaloo has reduced the organization and Bison for that matter to Saturday Morning Cartoon villain status. He just was well be Dr. Claw at this point. "I'll get you next to Ryu! NEXT TIME!" 😑
  14. That's still Goku's fault. He's the one that agreed to have Freiza brought back to life as a condition for him participating in the tournament. Whis just saved him the trouble of gathering the Dragon Balls.
  15. That's the thing that got me. She had a lay up answer for George and she didn't take it. George literally ran cover for Clinton's escapades. She can say what she wants about E. Jean Carroll but to go on about not shaming her, and then going after wasn't not a good luck in the slightest. She undermined her own position with her answers. It was like watching a witness from Matlock or Perry Mason sink their own case.
  16. Rise of Skywalker was terrible. It's not what fans wanted in the slightest. It the result of incompetent studio deciding to do a trilogy with no plan. With directors crafting stories without considering what the other is doing. The Sequel Trilogy is literally the next movie tossing out what the previous one did with no consideration of the repercussions. Disney's been falling on their face because they pander to people that don't consume their product. Of course they aren't the only ones, it's entertainment in general. Pandering to people that aren't your fans is how you end up with shit like The Last Jedi and the Rise of Skywalker. It's how you get the Saint's Row reboot. I could go on. TLDR; Their is an epidemic of businesses pandering....to non fans. Then getting the surprise Pikachu face when they lose money.
  17. At this point, I assume it's all BS until the product releases.
  18. @RSG3Ignoring fans is the only bad thing today. Pandering isn't preferable but it will maintain your fan base and not erode it. The sweet spot is crafting something that appeases fans and brings in a potential new audience. The Hollywood modus operandi is to hire some hack. completely ignore the subject matter, call complaining fans (insert derogatory term here), and lastly wonder why their product fails miserable. Hollywood has compounded their utterly lack of creativity by licensing good IP and handing off to a bunch of talentless "writers" that can barely compose a tweet let alone a well constructed story. Their utterly lack of imagination is well conveyed in their boilerplate responses to criticism. Say what you will about JK Rowling, she cooks people that go after her on social media. Then again, going after a talented writer in a war of words is unwise.
  19. This interview was absurd. Her replies were ridiculous. "You're shaming a rape victim..." Then she precedes to disparage E. Jean Carroll in the next sentence. Her explanation is "it's only a civil case". Yet there was no charges brought in her case. She's literally contorting herself into a pretzel to avoid answering the man's question. She, not he, should be ashamed of herself. As for Trump, he's wasting money he doesn't apparently have. He was convicted in court. If he's won his case against Carroll, it would be a different story. However he didn't.
  20. To the surprise of no one here. I'm not amused by this situation in the slightest.
