Posted an archived link to the article. The man said nothing wrong. If you check the comments on the article itself the top comments all say as much. I went from not giving a shit about the new LOTR movie to actively planning to see it.

Just as how the troglodytes stay true to their nature of corrupting everything good, there seems to always be some brave soul that dares to leak those corrupted goods to the public so that people can make judgements of their own and not be affected by FOMO, at the cost of their personal safety and income.

The Shit of Us 2, Failguard, that Wolverine game and now The Oddity (I'm sure I'm missing a few), all leaked by these brave heroes. Thank you for your service o7

Looks like Sweet baby inc hasn't left Insomniac completely.

New cinematics on the PTR are saying trolls and elves come from the same ancient race now. The problem is this was already established in the lore years ago. Instead of just building on it, they’re acting like it’s some big new thing and having characters pretend they don’t know.

This has been the pattern for a while. The current writers seem to treat older Warcraft lore as something that needs to be fixed or replaced. We keep getting new ancient races that are suddenly more important than everything before them, and old characters keep getting weird, softened dialogue.

It feels like they’re not expanding the old world, they’re slowly replacing it with their own version.

We won

For all my Chud brethren, ESO is primed for a chud takeover. In light of the recent firings at Zenimax, including those responsible for the non-binary companion, the leftists are dooming out of control and quiting.

It may be Microslop, but a step in the right direction is a step in the right direction.

A gaming-related question for a change.

HoMM: Olden Era is the only recent strategy I've dedicated a lot of time to recently, and it honestly deserves it (undoing most of the damage Ubisoft had done to the franchise as well as daring to have fanservice-y designs in this day and age as a welcome bonus).

Had my eye on Master of Command for a bit, too, but not much else - most of the "bigger" ones have gotten dumbed down and/or "modernized" in the more recent iterations (AoW 4, which is currently being milked like crazy by Paradox, Civ VII (blergh), Homeworld 3...). I don't mind replaying 20+ years old stuff by any means, but might be missing out on something good that's more recent.

Any connoisseurs having any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

Zenimax Online Studios, now owned by Microsoft, recently fired about 60% of their workforce and while that looks like it spells doom on the surface, it may have been a blessing for the future of the game.

Among the casualties of that firing was Narrative Director Bill Slavicsek.

Now Ben isn't an inherently bad guy. he has a storied history as a writer with monumental work like the Dark Sun campaign setting from DnD. however, Ben felt it was appropriate to go out of his way to defend ESO's woke slop non-binary character just as a number of people who got canned probably did and I for one am glad to see him gone, along with the other BlueSky users.

In support of this firing, I will go play a bit of ESO and write a thank you letter to Microsoft. I encourage you to do the same. A chud victory, no matter how small, is still one step closer to getting back what we've lost.

This game uses "e" for non binary characters when they are addressed in the game. The thing is Spanish already has a neutral use for this and it's called neutral masculine that uses the masculine sustantives when it's neccesary.

Far lefties are pushing to change it so you have to use the "e" when you don't know if a character is masculine or femenine but that's simple wrong in a pure grammal way.

The studio, the developers, left leaning influencers and their friends are now trying to shame anyone that complains about this political agenda even if the player review is super respectful about it only asking for options (something lefties love to ask for when they think it's beneficial to them) to see normal spanish language.

New skin on the left, the advertised version on the right.

In resume, this episode was only a excuse to give Logan his adamantium back (although it is never explored on the actual series what it means for him), so they had to make 20 minutes around it, let's see all the nosense:

-Logan reunites a team with his old allies Maverik and Garrison Kane and his old foes Sabertooth and Lady Deathstrike for a mission on Weapon X. Yes, it doesn't make any sense Creed helping Logan, but the show doesn't explain his motivations. They just needed a famous character to fill the team, I suppose. And Morph is there too.

-As soon as the mission begins, the show kills Garrison Kane for shock value.

-Then it's revealed that Weapon X have been taken over by THE BROOD. Yes, The Brood is the actual villain on a Weapon X story, for some reason.

-Yadda yadda, Maverik is killed for shock value too without adding anything to story either. It's really stupid how this show kills famous character with potential for no reason. Last season they killed Banshee for example, just for the lol.

-They make reference to better horror movies and X-Men stories, because when you have references you don't need a coherent plot. Wolvie is infected by The Brood, and although in an episode of the OG series he could defeat the infection with his healing factor, now he needs the adamantium for reasons that are not explained.

-We have an Omega Red cameo that makes no sense (In the OG series he ended trapped on a submarine, but now he's on Weapon X with no explanation).

-Turns out all the mission was a lie by Logan, he only wanted his adamantium back, he fooled everyone until he got what he needed and then he allowed them to escape that mortal trap. In this series, he's a complete jerk, much more than other characterizations. He gets Maverik and Kane killed, he almost get Morph killed for a lie, and he didn't care at all. And he continues obssesed with Jean Grey after what happened on Season 1, this is really pathetic. Logan has had many partners on the comics, famously Mariko, but here he's completely obssesed with a woman that has already rejected him and refuses to move on.

-Let me talk a bit about Morph: Why this character is on the series, he doesn't add ANYHTING to any story, the writers know it and barely give him any lines. He's just there to have fake cameos of better characters that we would prefer to watch instead of Morph. It very much feels a Beau self insert to get horny with Logan the same way he did with Rogue and Magneto.

Tl;DR: The episode it's just a excuse so the show can amend itself (Beau only wanted Magento removing the adamantium to have a "cool" moment, it seems) and don't have anyhting of interest. If you have Wolverine and Sabertooth slashing aliens you don't need a story, right? But also gives us one of the worst characterizations of Wolverine I have seen, honestly I don't remember other moments of Logan don't caring about the deaths of friends as long as he get what he wants.

So I did some looking and the guy replacing Beau Demayo is Matthew Chauncey, a guy who worked on the "What If" series.

Now here's the thing: I don't know why people are acting like S3 is going to suck just because Demayo got fired. The man was fired for a reason and considering that Disney didn't hesitate in firing him plus no one has spoken up for him and the fact that he keeps whining on social media kinda speaks volumes and makes him look more guilty than innocent. I'm personally glad he's gone[I'm black myself and I've never liked the guy, especially the way he completely ruined Rogue's character in the show].

Anyway, back to the new guy: Matthew Chauncey worked on the What If series and I gotta say: I am not worried one bit. Mainly because the What If series was engaging and entertaining to watch.

Also, isn't the show kinda already exploring different arcs from the different eras of the comics? I'd imagine Chauncey would fit like a glove.

All in all, I'm not worried and actually excited to see what new direction it goes in.

FastPath has been flooding Source‑engine games with fake servers, forced redirects, bot‑filled lobbies, and deceptive server practices — and players across Counter‑Strike: Source, Team Fortress 2, Half‑Life 2: Deathmatch, Day of Defeat, and more are fed up.

If you’ve ever tried to join a server and ended up somewhere completely different…
If you’ve ever seen a “full” lobby that was actually bots…
If your server browser is filled with identical entries…
You’re not alone.

This video breaks down how FastPath’s behavior is damaging the Source multiplayer ecosystem — and why the community is calling for Valve’s attention.
