| Topic | I find Pink Floyd to just be super fucking boring. =/ |
| TheHoldSteady 09/30/22 9:24:03 PM #35 | When you're listening to Pink Floyd, just remember that they're not like other bands. Their music is incredibly artistic, almost to the point where you have to be paying complete attention to them to even remotely understand them. I remember listening to a song on Dark Side of the Moon (though I can't remember what it was), where I thought a song was absolute bollocks during the listen. Then, I closed my eyes for a second, and all of a sudden the song had an entirely new meaning. It was insane the way Pink Floyd could just become something so different when you take a look into the music. Another thing you should note about Tool is that it's easy to get a headache listening to them. Not because they're a bad band, but because of how many ideas their music is riddled with and how complex they are. Soon enough your head will fill to the brim and the rest will just sound like noise to you. Just turn it off and give it a listen the next day. If you don't like the music, you'll definitely at least enjoy reading through the lyrics, and picking apart the song itself and all of the artistic values that go into making it the complexity that it is. --- When it's hard to see the benefits, the tavern is a decent way to seal off all the stimulus, feel something close to death but just a little bit |

| TheHoldSteady 09/30/22 3:03:36 PM #8 | Error1355 posted... Is there a mode where you run the shows and shit? How advanced is that from the mode in like WWE 2k18 or whatever (I forgot what fucking year I last played) Universe mode is there. Seems to be about the same as it was in previous games except this time they added a mode where you can pick any wrestler or CAW and control just their matches, kind of like an old school season mode. They also brought back GM mode. I haven't tried it yet myself but consensus has been that it doesn't really live up to the SvR GM mode. --- When it's hard to see the benefits, the tavern is a decent way to seal off all the stimulus, feel something close to death but just a little bit |

| TheHoldSteady 09/30/22 2:58:24 PM #6 | Touch posted... But is there like...a good story mode or is it just barebones universe mode still? Story mode is decent. It's kind of Smackdown vs. Raw 2007's story mode where there's not an overarching storyline but a bunch of short stories in a row. You can be a face or a heel and you can challenge for and defend the midcard title. But there's not many cutscenes and most of the storylines are built through your in-game Twitter feed so that might annoy some people. --- When it's hard to see the benefits, the tavern is a decent way to seal off all the stimulus, feel something close to death but just a little bit |

Gen 1 is lower B tier to me. Sure, it's glitchy and has terrible AI and the mechanics are not great. But what I think it captures that I think those newer titles don't is the freedom. Too much hand holding. That's why I put it as high as I did.

| TheHoldSteady 09/26/22 5:35:06 PM #31 | Xerun posted... Jesse turns his back on Walt to go work with Gus. The guy who was perfectly fine with killing kids Gus needed Walt quality meth but also needed to kill Walt because Walt had grown too irrational. With Gale dead, Jesse was his only real option left. So Gus played the only real card he had. He kept Jesse close, pulling him away from Walt, hoping Jesse would switch loyalties to Gus and give the OK to kill Walt. It almost worked, but Jesse had too much of a connection to Walt already, and wouldn't give the OK. So Gus tries firing Walt and threatening his family to keep him at bay, but it has the opposite effect Gus is expecting. And Walt pulls the hail Mary to firmly get Jesse's loyalty back. I wouldn't say Jesse turned his back on Walt. He was just manipulated into doing work for Gus for a while until Walt out manipulated Jesse --- When it's hard to see the benefits, the tavern is a decent way to seal off all the stimulus, feel something close to death but just a little bit |

X and Y are C-tier X and Y: I appreciated that they introduced customization, the intros weren't overly long, and they had a good selection of Pokemon. But tbh these games were just unfinished. C would be fair because they're better than Sword and Shield. Sun and Moon: Only played them a couple times and they suffered from the same slow paced hand holdiness that modern Pokemon games all tend to suffer from, but I still liked them honestly.
