Both things can be true the show’s low scores can be because it has legitimate flaws or can also have those same low scores because of people who know nothing else in life but to be petty self absorbed assholes.

RE: Yakuza.
@zeltrax225 said in Yakuza.:
Because that's the problem? Sure, he's not the Mario to Mario games or the Link to Zelda game but he is THE most prominent character and the instant association when you think about the Yakuza series.
I mean Yakuza has a number of other characters who are just as iconic as Kiryu but either underutilized or barely used at all some of them are even still alive. But the guy that’s been in the most games and whose death has been teased twice in series needs more exposure.
By that logic, Mario is overexposed too.
Well sure if you ignore the fact that the key difference between Kiryu & Mario is that Mario’s series & games are named after him. That and as far as I know the Mario games have never tried to officially write the character off.
..And then decided not to stick with the heart of the decision. Why do you think that? Is it because, Kiryu, with 7 (9 if you count remakes) games under his belt, still has a story to write for
As I said before someone on the dev. team likely didn’t like the ending of 6 or is simply a Kiryu fan as otherwise I can’t really figure out the decision to being Kiryu back. Anything and Everything they could’ve did with his character has been done to various degrees of success.
Finding Romance? Did that with 2 and fucked it up with 3.
Covering his early days in the Tojo? Covered that in 0.
His history with Majima? Covered that in 0 too and didn’t have them officially meet each other til the end credits
His non Yakuza life?….covered in 3,4,5, & 6.
Literally the only thing they can do with Kiryu at this point even though it’s technically not necessary is resolve the plot line from 6 with him being dead. Otherwise there’s literally nothing else to do with his character. Especially as 7 pretty much ends his obligation to the Tojo Clan with it’s plot twist after that literally being a crutch for most of the games he was the protagonist of.
Like I said elsewhere I’m cool with this so long as
A. This is the definitely last the mainline game featuring Kiryu narratively or gameplay wise.
B. Doesn’t turn into a Gyakuten Saiban thing.
It is $$$, lol.
It can be both for money and because the developers are on some coward shit.

I don’t know what I think about Sentry being in the movies, he’s a very weird character
Also it’s kind of his thing to always be the strongest,
Hulk’s going to be pisssed.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
The guy whose spent two years claiming he lost an election unfairly and also has had some antisemitic moments over the years thinks the guy who thinks Jews run the world and that George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose is off his rocker.

@MDL said in Random News Article Discussion II:
Upon realizing his daughter was shot, hale should have just pulled over and immediately called 911.
Don’t you see Hale had no duty to retreat he was within his rights to stand his ground and deal with the situation personally
you should always safely seperate your vehicles instead of engaging or retaliating.
“Nah I wanna threaten and kill someone for having the temerity to cut me off or refuse to let me pass them”.
People can’t help being dumb and miserable.

@Sano I just saw Seth getting "pissed" off at CM Punk coming back, was that just a work?
That’s the going theory. The more confusing thing no one is yet sure of is why was Drew McIntyre all hot.

@Shiebs said in The New Nintendo Thread:
Would Geno and Mallow return or would there be new allies?
Don’t see why you wouldn’t bring back one or both. While also potentially coming up with new party members that aren’t your typical “friendly version of a regular/rarely used Mario enemy”.
@Johnny-B-Decent said in The New Nintendo Thread:
@Time-Control-Magician That's fine, too, just no more Color Splash/Origami King crap.
What Kamek showing up to fuck up your cards sometimes leading to unwinnable fights even after you stomp his ass wasn’t doing it for you?

I’d rather they make more games in the vein of Super Mario RPG specifically.

Resident 4 Remake is the first & last Resident Evil game I’ve platinumed. And that took like 8 playthroughs.
The last two or so was avoidable.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
How is Russia invading Ukraine Biden’s fault?
And while you can criticize the Administration’s coddling of Israel that coddling not only precedes him but would happen anyway.
Lastly equating Trump & Biden to Stalin & Hitler is bizarre. I’ve yet to see Biden push to do the kind of atrocious things either man did.
Whereas Trump has shown a desire to do or has done the kind of things both were known for. Such as prosecuting dissidents or perceived threats that aren’t, denigrating Jews/associating with people who do, appointing loyalists to key positions that don’t even try to hide their loyalty, pushing misinformation & propaganda designed to make him look good and his opponents/enemies as mistrustful and dangerous, willing to turn on allies for personal benefit.
Just to name a few parallels off the top of my head.
