Right, I said it's "not bad," hardly a ringing endorsement. It had some good ideas and concepts but it also has a lot of flaws, which is why it's quite unfortunate that it's the best Discovery ever managed.

Right? Put Lorca on the front of my list to round out all four seasons. The outsiders carry the cast.

My problem with season 4 wasn't that it was slow, but that it was uninspired and by-the-numbers. I had worked out that the DMA was a "stepping on an anthill" situation by... episode 4, maybe? 5 at the latest. So then I got to watch one of the oldest tropes in sci-fi unfold for 8 more episodes, played completely straight. Yawn.

I'd rather watch the B-plot from S01E06 of Babylon 5 to experience that particular story again. That way I'd be done in an hour.

That’s true, it could have been worse. She could have been as stupid as she is ugly.

You're characterizing what is likely to be the best reviewed game of the year as "nothing special" and you "don't see how" that's a hot take? Really?

[-] GuyFleegman@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

What exactly do you think "hot take" means?

Warcraft III. Voodoo2 wasn't cutting it, upgraded to a GeForce4 MX420.

.... which still wasn't really cutting it, so I spent every penny to my name and upgraded to a Radeon 9700 Pro like 6 months later.

Man, I loved that card. Used it for years. To this day I think it was the card I held onto the longest.

So you're saying you want a serious Lemmy instance with Star Trek news and in-depth analysis... that's full of shitposts and jamaharon?

Compared to my previous take this one is ice cold, but Elden Ring and Tears of the Kingdom.

This issue is already quite widely publicized and quite frankly “we’re handling it and removing this” is a much more harmful response than I would hope to see.

Hi, mod of a community on the instance in question here. Why is this response harmful? What should we have done instead?
