  • Good: Nice special effects, nice wardrobes, nice sets, the ludicrous violence fits right in with the universe, and particularly the performances from the actors are very good. At least visually, it looks way better and the effects look way more convincing than 3 Body Problem, to use another recent show as a comparison.

    Bad: apparently the show disregards New Vegas lore (personally idk I never played it), I think the editing is super bad, the story is average.



  • Ok, when I first read the question I thought that’s what you meant, but since it sounds borderline schizophrenic, I just wanted to be certain of its meaning.

    You have a mental problem where you cannot differentiate between fiction and reality.

    These are not the words of a sane person:

    All I did was switch from Reddit to Lemmy I tried to criticize Zombie Land Saga after posting about it until I started reading about it from a ministry. You know…because it involves necromancy?

    Zombies are fine, but why do you have to tamper with actual lives just for sake of entertainment?

    Zombie Lan Saga was an anime that subverted zombies in favor of Japanese pop idols that are supposed to be ‘zombies’ but not exactly.

    I witnessed the deaths of Edd Gould and Steve Jobs before Zombie Land Saga subverted my last experience with characters being dead by zombifying the dead and conjuring them up.

    I also watched Zombie Land Saga, so my concept of death has been distorted by that because of Kotaro Tatsumi and the girls.

    Zombie Land Saga was the franchise that disrespected zombies in favor of ‘cute’ idol girls being conjured up by a maniacal mastermind who thinks he can ‘save’ Saga by tampering with the dead to appease his recently died classmate which I consider evil regardless if the girls learn to perform on stage as pop stars like Sakura and there are even characters investigating the case while the series focuses on just ‘cute’ idol girls.

    Zombie Land Saga is what made me shy away from what it was pushing (minors, necromancy, zombification, transgenderism) as a Christian.

    Personally, I think Project Zombie Land Saga should be criminally investigated even in Japan because some dead folks were tampered with and some of them were famous enough that I expect a lawsuit coming in the future but the only policeman on the show is stupid and doesn’t recognize Sakura or Ai despite them speaking plain English to him and not attacking him like an actual zombie would, not to mention the rest of the girls should be investigated anyway, but Sakura covered it all up with her performing and entertaining her audience because that’s what’s more important than breaking the law…and the people think the reanimated corpses and the boy in ponytails (Lily/Sanae) are all cute.

    For someone who seems to hate ZLS, you talk about it constantly throughout your comments - there are more but I gave up reading the weird liquid diarrhea that you constantly spew out.

    The whole idea of ZLS is that it’s a silly comedy about pop idols who happen to be zombies. From your words, it seems like you are simultaneously upset that zombies exist, upset that the zombies aren’t portrayed as traditionally violent flesh-eating monsters, upset that necromancy exists, upset because Christianity tells you to be upset.

    The expression “go outside and touch grass” became popular because of people like you.





  • Witch Spring R

    Apparently this is an old series with a few other titles? I had never heard of it before.

    Key features: cute tone, anime styled, Japanese/Korean voiceover, 3rd person travel, JRPG turn based fighting, lots of things to grind and craft for making items and upgrading things, visual novel style dialogue, low stress mood while playing

    There’s a lot of good about it. Particularly I think the lead Japanese voice actress is good and the overall presentation of how screens transition, the flow of gameplay from section to section (exploration, story, combat, crafting, minigames) are executed well.

    I am only about two hours in but I find myself feeling satisfied with just that much play. It’s less of an indictment on the game itself and more me feeling that the game is not personally for me. While the polish is nice and the relaxed feeling to WSR is very pleasant, I prefer stories with more tension and conflict.

    Age of Wonders 4

    Very nice polish, horrible tutorial, hated it immediately for reasons I am not even sure about. I have played too many 4x games, I guess. It struck me as a game that wasn’t bringing something new to the genre while also not excelling in a specific area either.

    If you liked this game, try to sell me on it. I still have it installed and am open to changing my opinion on it.









  • There felt like a lot of people who really wanted CP to be GTAV and were extremely upset that it wasn’t.

    There was also a lot of angst from people who saw the words “open world” and expected it to mean some Second Life-esque escapist experience, rather than the actual meaning of open world, as in there is a big environment where you are free to roam around and do stuff in.

    Misled expectations from the marketing hype absolutely played a key role in all of that furor, but at least for me, I tune out most of it since I like making my own opinions on things.

    There’s a TON more that could be said but those are the three standout points from my perspective.



  • I feel ya, OP. I bought Cyberpunk 2077 at launch, played the hell out of it and loved every second of it. Then I tried to find honest discussion about it and it was threads full of nonstop bitching or substance-free fluff from the low sodium crowd. There wasn’t a place to find balanced talk where people could share their experiences about the game while also being civil and open minded about things.

    If you are just looking to create discussion, I guess this thread has been successful as it’s gotten a lot of replies already.
