Its kind of sad what happened to Law Breakers.

All it needed was a bit more polish. More interesting characters, some cosmetics worth acquiring and as long as they continued to support it with new characters and maps it could have had a long life.

People shat all over it way too quickly and the word of mouth killed that game harder than Ive ever seen. Its really quite fun and I put a decent number of hours in it.

This is a mass market that eats up anything star was and marvel can get to follow a story over 10 years and 18 movies, retraining people how to watch movies. Staying until the end credits to get every piece of story.

I think if done well people would latch onto this easy.

Rich Homie is making some excellent points.

I like how in 10 seconds you gave The Flash more motivation and backstory than they did. I like how at the end of the movie hes just given a job by Batman. Yet we never once in the movie see hes qualified to do anything beyond running really fast. At best we see his lair with all his computers and shit so were supposed to assume that hes a pretty smart guy. I would have to watch the movie again but did he do ANY planning or critical thinking? I honestly cant think of a time. It seems like they gave all those bits to Cyborg.

Well the absolute centre of all their problems stems from the rush job they did trying to #metoo themselves into a cinematic universe.

None of the characters on screen feel like they're properly fleshed out. The move dips into the Flash's speedforce in the first act to establish all the characters and the flimsy plot and try to give everyone a purpose. And it's all garbage. You don't care about anyone.

Even the characters that have had movies prior to this one don't have any weight behind them. Wonder Woman has the range of a spare tire. Her entire purpose is to look pretty and do something badass. She's honestly boring as fuck. They tried at the end to make her into a leader, but it's too little too late in this movie.

At best the rest are "okay" Superman was pretty irrelevant in this film, there's not much there to judge of him. They try to establish the world is in ruins because Superman died. They show one dude freaking out and being taken down by a cop and a homeless dude with a sign saying "I tried". What? This is world in reeling from the death of Superman?

Batman is right there in the middle too, I don't hate him, but what did he do in this movie that was worth writing about? The small scene in the beginning where he's actually Batman is what we needed, even though the scene doesn't make any goddamn sense. He's stalking a criminal, suddenly there's a parademon. Why. It's not until later I guess that it starts to clue in that he's maybe using the criminal's fear to attract the demon but again. Why. Why is it there. Why do they feed on fear. How does Batman know. There's so many questions being thrown at you and the lame ass plot is already in full swing before you care at all about what's happening. Then for as much screen time as he gest, he don't do shit. Honestly. He recruits Flash, that's It. Diana comes to him. Diana gets Cyborg. Aquaman isn't buying what he's selling, he only cares to join after his home is attacked. Barely does anything in the action scenes. I just watched it and I honestly cant even remember if he was there at the end when Superman joins the fight? Did he do anything at all.

Aquaman. Forgettable. That's all I have to say about him. I just didn't know what to think of him. I guess because this is the first you ever get to see of him, again, movie's biggest flaw, there's just no time to establish his character. Is he more of a man from legend? Like a Thor type, he comes from a different world, different customs, doesn't always play well with others. With his final costume and trident you would think so. But then you also see him interacting with people, saving fishermen. Hanging out in the bar, but you don't get any impression from the people what they think of him. And then there's what little personality he shows. "Oh Yeah!" and "My Man!" so he's...a dudebro? What the fuck is he.

The Flash is alright. After the first scene with him when Bruce recruits him I thought I would dig him. They obviously tried to make him the "likeable" one and give him the quirky personality people will latch on to. But that's all he did. And it kind of got annoying. His action scenes were fun, and again, he get's major points for that scene with superman, and the end credits scene I liked a lot too.

Then there's Cyborg. Now, this may actually come as a shock to you but I actually liked him. Is he a great character no. And like every other character he suffers from a lack of fleshing out, proper motivation. All the trappings this movie knows well. But with what little he got I felt like I understood his powerset, it immediately opened up with the potential growth, which is always a good thing to leave on the table for superheroes. I'm not sure how to put my finger on it, maybe it was the actor doing a damn good job.

And those are just the characters. There's still all sorts wrong with the movie and I haven't mentioned CGIwolf.

Wow. What an absolute trainwreck.

The only redeeming thing about this movie was the scene with Superman fighting the flash. Honestly that 30 seconds could be one of the best superhero moments put to film.

Otherwise it's a total dumpster fire.

A huge reason why I want the switch is for the local multiplayer aspects and games. A second controller isnt a luxury for my purposes. Its going to be needed. And if Im getting another controller its going to the the pro obviously.

Why dont I decide my needs and you decide what works for you.

You can do two player local multiplayer out of the box.
A second pair of joycons is in fact a better investment as it gives you a total of 4 players for coop for only $10 more than the pro.
So for 4 players you can spend $100 on joycons or $180 on Pro Controllers.
That's a very damn obvious decision.
If you're buying a Pro con for 2 player games, that's not a necessity. Period.


You have controlling issues. Again, Ill decide what works for me.

Those two little joy cons look like absolute garbage to play with for any stretch of time. Granted I havent used them individually, but 27 years in the gaming game I think I have a pretty good idea how its going to go down. Something like this.

https://pics.me.me/wanna-play-playstation-derp-lol-l-sure-mad-useless-leds-6046548.png

This comic comes standard with every Nintendo console. Id feel like like an ass if I invited friends over and handed them one of those little bastards, here come over and game for a number of hours and youre going to use a controller the size of a stick of a lipstick.

I like how the leap is to immediately compare the pro $80 controller with the XB Elite $150 controller.

Not the one $70-80 thats comes with the console itself.

That wouldnt help your argument at all.


What? Neither controller comes with any console or console bundle.

They're both for more hardcore players.

There's also been a few different iterations of Xbox One controllers that add rubber grips and the like that are recommended over the standard controllers.


Im just talking the default Xbox controller. Not the elite.

The controller that comes with any Xbone system. Its comparable in pretty much every way to the Nintendo Pro controller

But dudes be leaping trying to compare that $80 controller to the hyper expensive elite controller.

meestermj posted...

The one that comes with the switch (two technically) is a $100 controller that serves multiple purposes and works in every single game. In fact works better for some games (Mario, BotW, Splatoon 2 with motion aiming, etc).
The reason its compared to the Elite controller is because nobody needs them. They are 100% optional luxury items. You buy it because you want it and like it, its lot a required purchase to make the console useable.

You buying the Pro controller is a pointless luxury. If you want it that's fine, but you don't get to bitch about the system being pricey when you're buying an unnecessary third controller.


Alright. Im going to quote this when people say how good it is.

Paying monthly is actually pretty dumb. You can find year subs for less than $60 most of the time. Why do you insist on paying full price for everything?

An Xbone is over $700 with all the trimmings:

$500 for console (Xbox One X)
$150 for elite controller
$60 for a game
$60 for a year of Xbox Live

A PS4 is almost $600 with all the trimmings:

$400 for console (PS4 Pro)
$40 for second controller
$60 for a game
$60 for a year of PS+


You're the one playing silly games. I mean using the XBX and elite controller just to pad the numbers is pretty sad.

I'm literally just talking base console 2 games and an extra controller.
