What are we talking about here? An OPTION to skip boss fights and is completely OPTIONAL to use is a good thing. You don't want it, don't use it. Being able to beat a boss doesn't make you a better person than someone else. Stop basing your self worth on videogames.

There are TONS of reasons for easier mode, and NONE of them are vindicated by "but what if you don't actually want to play" YES. That is still ACTUALLY playing. If it's not to you, it still might be for others. Again, don't judge your own worth in videogames.

It's been answered in other replies. Y2K issue didn't affect any home computers. MS-DOS has been Y2K compliant since 1983. So you could absolutely enter any date past 1999 you wanted. What was affected was automation systems from before the 80z, which still were in use in the 90s

This is essentially what "killed" AAA adventure games. Other genres started selling millions while adventure games stuck to pretty much the same numbers.
Sat Oct 09 01:58:47 +0000 2021Replying to @dosnostalgic
For a while the numbers were good though. Phantasmagoria cost $4.5 mil to develop (how?!?), and ended up shipping 600,000+ units. That's a good return.

Deaths. Just because it takes that long to beat, doesn't mean that's how much video there is. I could find out *exactly* how much video there is, since the game's resources are easy to view, but I'm not going to. It's 11 pm, I need to go to bed, and it's just not wort it.

I really enjoy the sequel, but it's kind of like Escape from L.A. situation. It's essentially a self spoof. A response to the reaction to the first film. First film is honest. The sequel is winking at you. I call it the Gremlins 2 of Russian gangster films.
Thu Oct 14 03:45:35 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer and @TyTannenbaum
Well, the sequel was being made with Yeltsin still being in office. In fact it came out b4 Putin was officially inaugurated, I think. It does show off the new aggressive patriotism for sure, and in a sense it sort of "predicted" Putin, but it does so almost jokingly, I feel.
Thu Oct 14 04:01:52 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer and @TyTannenbaum
The fist movie was hailed as the "arrival of the modern times Russian moral hero", and... it's not that at all! So in the second movie it's all power fantasy and all, but... he goes to the States to kill an American because a Russian mobster lied to him. He's not a smart man.
Thu Oct 14 04:03:33 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer and @TyTannenbaum
Balabanov was often confronted with the question of Danila attitude toward foreigners in the first films, and he always had to say "I don't understand why this is being asked of me, instead of the character," and to me that's the most telling thing about the sequel.
Thu Oct 14 04:05:41 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer and @TyTannenbaum
First movie is /kind of/ about surviving in the new times, but in the end is it? Is Danila right? All he wanted was to relate to someone. And he has no one. The only moral person is German the hobo who doesn't want anything to do with him because he kills people. Danila is alone.
Thu Oct 14 04:10:47 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer and @TyTannenbaum
Yes, which is why the first film is a masterpiece, and the sequel isn't, but I think it's kind of unique to see a sequel to a super indie film that didn't betray the characters, and still managed to carry a message, even if it didn't get recognized... again.
Thu Oct 14 04:17:34 +0000 2021Replying to @kirilldozer
Are you Russian? Because just the opening scene sets the mood perfectly for the time. God, I look back at it and I almost can't believe Balabanov got away with it.

Well, the you're the best audience for it because you don't need to embrace the extremes that are depicted in the film (for a joke). Foreigners react to the 1st film well because of this, I feel, but the sequel needs a whole lot more context.

I am lucky enough to have grown up close to a Soviet computer school. I also owe it a lot. But I beg to differ: kids won't turn up by themselves, especially not in the area where I live. School classes are more accessible, and free.

Like, sure, it's perfectly fine, but they took 2 and a half hours to do half of the book, and still threw out a whole bunch of stuff I'd like to see. More Baron. More Reverend Mother. Caladan not being an ugly shithole. More Fremen. It really could have been something.

Oh yeah, and space travel and the Guild Navigators! It's not even touched upon in this version. For all it's apparently amazing visual flair (just don't ask it to be colorful) they didn't show anyone folding space and time.

There's really not much to get. It's mainly how much of one's sensibilities align with Anderson's. His films are all just whimsy and extreme silliness wrapped up in doll house aesthetic & 60+ year old European (mainly French) cinema/culture references, and not much beyond that.
Sat Oct 30 20:17:42 +0000 2021Replying to @MobyGamer
So the less of these elements are appealing to a viewer, the less entertaining those movies become, to the point that for many people they either don't do anything, or, in fact, they find any combination of these elements annoying.

Maybe it's a tad too spoilery, or maybe they were cutting down on running time, or maybe it didn't fit the rest of the opening, which is kind of somber. But yeah, as a fan of elaborate opening credits sequences I am also disappointed.

This is exactly what I felt when the final trailer was released. Why? Why would he do this to himself? He had made a bunch of pretty great movies, and now he has to sit in meeting that are dictating how much Walmart he has to feature in this so called "film"?

At least 2016 did apparently sell their soul to the Demons of Merchandising and is now obligated to feature EVERYTHING in every promo material that comes out. Can't believe there's an actual WalMart in the TRAILER. Afterlife *looks* like garbage. Why is it lit like a commercial?

I did laugh at the end credits of 22 Jump Street. That I remember. Nothing to do with the rest of movie, so whoever they hired to do all of that deserves all the accolades.
Sun Oct 31 00:06:06 +0000 2021Replying to @expectproblems
The small "clip" that they released a while ago was Paul Rudd in a WalMart. Then the final trailer has him running out of a WalMart, and the framing is done in such a way that the store logo is front and center. And it's lit like everyone just gave up a long time ago.🤦♂️

Post Child's Play 3 movies (and a current TV show) are pretty fun, although they do require a certain trashy sense of humor.

Imo Seed (5) and Cult (7) are the weakest in the series (besides 3, which is just bleh), but it all depends on how much you're into the humorous side of the series, which has been carrying on since then.
