    • RE: Fanbase entitlement

      I think a fanbase should have a little entitlement, honestly, depending on what's going on. Like when George Lucas kept fiddling with the original Star Wars because effects were better and removing the old ones? Fans were entitled to be upset about it. That's more ruining someone's childhood than doing a live action movie about a cartoon made about toys.

      No matter how entitled people get about a Mu* though, I doubt they will just jump up and hug someone running a game like they will with a celebrity. One of many articles about how celebrity is not consent. But that's how fan entitlement can go bad.

      On the flipside, I've hate-watched shows that I had started out loving, not because I thought the show owed me something, but because it went so off the rails. But some "fans" hatewatch because the show isn't doing what they want. And at that point, how can they really say they are a fan?

      I always missed that I guess. All I ever saw was how the writers loved Sam and hate Dead, or hate Sam and love Dean because, reasons. Or Dean and Castiel being the OTP.

      Not really. Supernatural nods and winks with the fans, even using names of a message board that was up at the time when discussing the show. Teen Wolf fans on the other hand are like "No, they're gay and in love, and this is the way it is and anyone who doesn't see it, including the people writing the show are idiots." to the point that the actors talk about it, but aren't very comfortable about it.

      Death Road to Canada is pretty cheap already at $15 US, but it's on a teeny sale right now since it just came out too.

      Probably going to drunken stream it tomorrow if it looks interesting but you aren't quite sure about it.

    • RE: Overwatch, anyone?

      Yup, I pretty much stopped talking in groups when I was raid-leading in WoW and while explaining a fight a new recruit pipes up. "Wow whoever is talking, your voice is HOT!"

    • RE: RL Anger

      Our Netflix library is behind that of some developing countries.

      But at least we got Force Unleashed first.

    • RE: The Descent MUX

      Honestly I don't see what about the files that came off as a PK heavy game. Conflict happens and isn't a bad thing. And, as a whole MUers seem to jump to the kill the person I don't like first conclusion, true but I don't see how a game admitting it's going to happen and giving a bonus for being drama-free when it happens means All PK, All The Time!

      @Auspice But it's comfy here!

      @Surreality We have a Paradise here too! We also have a Hell's Gate too though.

      My town is so small it was originally called Mud Creek. Our town mascot is a walking mud puddle with arms and a smiley face.

    • RE: Pokemon Go

      Some backstories are pretty nasty. Like Cubone. (The one with the skull on his head? It's his mother's skull. His mother who died giving birth to him. Also his tears stain the skull.

      But that's still kind of tame compared to some of the things in the Old Testament. Bears ripping apart small children and all that.

    • RE: Pokemon Go

      @Vorpal Yeah I'm a 'do the everything' gamer, and I don't have a phone, so the whole Pokemon Go craze has probably passed me by and it's a good thing. But I also live in a teeny tiny town where the one street through the road also used to be the highway and I feel really super safe here. But then again I wouldn't go trampsing around on other people's property either.

      With my luck I'd end out on the dykes at low tide and get stuck in the mud.

      Young man killed after being lured to the location. (No, this isn't the one on Snopes which was false.)

    • RE: Pokemon Go

      I get wanting to be private, but then you get people who don't want to tell you their birthdate, or their address... when they are calling in for customer service. Because asking a birthdate is rude when you are asking a woman. That was for cellphones. The address? That was for cable.

      Just... people.

    • RE: World of Warcraft: Legion

      I would have put in a to have my name changed to Pinocho if that had happened to me. (Disney version, not the original).

      Speaking of original versions of things, when the hell did my voidwalker get abs? I remember when he was just a blob without even a blob for a shadow!
