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.

RE: Random News Article Discussion II
@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.

RE: Lupin the 3rd
Green shirt/jacket thing is kinda reachy since Lupin’s red jacket pretty much became a near permanent staple even after they changed it following series 3.
Truth be told I wish he kept the black pants and shirt. Never did like the gray pants and blue shirt.

RE: Hajime no Ippo
Oh it does look weird.
But this is the same manga that gave us Eleki Battery & Papaya two guys with equally fucked up hairstyles.
You’ve even had a few guys running around with mullets which have never been in style (and I will hear no arguments to the contrary).

RE: Disney animation thread
@Gizmo said in Disney animation thread:
Also feel bad for Chris Pine. He seems like a solid actor, but a lot of what he touches just bombs (not saying Wish didn’t deserve it in this instance, just noticed Pine’s movie list and felt bummed). This, the Dreamworks film Rise of the Guardians, Dungeons and Dragons Honor Among Thieves…
He and Cara Delevingne should make a movie together.
