alphagamble 06/15/20 7:15:12 AM #1:	Who wrote this shit? Kovac is supposed to be this street smart badass but he gets clowned on every episode. Why does everyone want to jump on his dick? How has the hotel not had a guest in 50 years? Why is the Latina angry all the time? It looks good but I was expecting something better than what I got. --- ooh <cite>alphagamble posted [p:940695985] in Altered Ca... [t:78773216]...</cite> <quote>Who wrote this shit?

specialkid8 06/15/20 8:45:33 AM #8:	I think it tried to stuff way too much cyberpunk in at once and it just made it feel silly. The stacks were an interesting enough concept and if they had just built the world up from there with some added flair it would have been better. The flashbacks with OG Kovacs were better than the ongoing stuff. Joel Kinneman is a charisma vacuum. <cite>specialkid8 posted [p:940697625] in Altered Ca...

Everything they established in the first season was undone or altered (ha get it) in horrible ways in the second.

Why does everyone want to jump on his dick? How has the hotel not had a guest in 50 years? Why is the Latina angry all the time? It looks good but I was expecting something better than what I got. I think we are used to "super badass" people in tv being frankly too OP, I was mostly ok with him being as vulnerable as he was. I do agree with the hotel thing (maybe it was too expensive for everybody who didn't have infinity money, and also kinda not worth it because the hotel guy was kinda clingy?). I find most people in shows always want to jump on each other's dicks an implausibly high amount so no argument there. Latina's character made sense to me though. Season 2 is much worse btw. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori https://imgur.com/TheGsZ9 <cite>joe40001 posted [p:940745462] in Altered Ca...
