Maxx Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 More or less why I'm surprised dune is doing so well. It's a weird fucking story... It's part of the really out there aspects of scifi. But I guess the 2021 movie does handwalks mainstream audiences through a decent chunk of the story so that's prob why it's done so well. Quote Link to comment

I wouldn't say its the really out there part of sci-fi. Maybe its the gateway to crazier things. Think the people caught by surprise by Dune are just used to the fairly similarish world of Fantasy. Had a friend who hated sci-fi and fantasy novels being lumped in together because those two genres ware waaaaaaaaaaay different. Movie only covers the first half of the first book. If you thought THAT was weird, wait until the orgies and the nonsense from the sequel books hit. You know what? Guess Sci Fi has always been the weird nerd shit genre as opposed to the ones that gave us larpers. Fuck a Larper, watch Dune. Chadouken, RSG3 and Hecatom 3 Quote Link to comment

They'll probably still do their multiple installment, shitty netcode, dress up simulator with a fg thrown in on the side tactics. I don't think Ono had influence in the inner, technical aspects of the game, but I do remember him saying he asked his staff to change stuff things about the characters, like change move sets, looks, etc. Anyway, for many years there were some higher ups that were more interested in the movie industry, and were more focused on the Resident Evil movies. But those guy have been out of the company for a few years now. The director of the Monster Hunter games, Ryozo Tsujimoto, has been promoted to "Head of Consumer Games Development Division 3 and General Manager of Department 3, and is now also a Corporate Officer in addition to those positions." I think he cares about quality in their games. And the guys currently working on Street Fighter have made some good decisions so far. So, if all goes well...

I grew up on weird scifi and fantasy as well as anime way too mature for my age. But in terms of mainstream ideas of scifi its Def weird.

Reticently Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Dune is about medium weird as far as sci fi goes, but it's probably near the limit of how weird you can get and still be made into a big budget mainstream movie. Darc_Requiem, J-ride, DoctaMario and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Like their refusal to wear body cams and turning their dashcams off while they insist normal people don't have their Constitutional right to be free of search and seizure because "if you don't have anything to hide you shouldn't care about privacy". I expect nothing from most people. Even with the hypocrisy laid bare it's not as if anyone cared. In this world it's truly power and wealth that protect you, have those things and you get rights, otherwise everything is merely a "privilege" at the whims of those with power.

I bet a lot of these jobs are going to require training and when you have that many people just getting hired that need training, they'll be a lot of fuck ups and you definitely don't want that at, say, a nuclear lab or a place building helicopters. I'll be surprised if they let all those people go, it's like the nursing thing, it's not like thats a job you can just hire someone off the street to do if you need to replace someone.
