One of the things I love about Glass Onion is the way that the camera and music work together to tell nonverbal jokes.

Like when Benoit basically has to hold Miles' hand to get him to the conclusion that someone reset the puzzle box Benoit lies about receiving:

Benoit asks if it's possible that someone reset the box, and Miles then declares that someone must have reset the box like it is this huge reveal - and the camera zooms out while the music subtly swells as though he really has figured out something smart, when actually he literally restated what Benoit just said.

alright. ive played over 50 hours of dragon age veilguard and even tho im not finished yet i think i can confidently give my opinions of the game. i have exactly two things to say.

it is a fun game. i am enjoying my time playing it. i like this game.

it is a downgrade from inquisition in almost every aspect except for maybe graphics.

today marks 7 months since I made my first ever gifset and honestly if you would have told me then that it would take up this much of my time I would have laughed in your face.

I needed a proper creative outlet again apparently lmao

very interested in how marvel + dc are both experimenting with the webtoon format (infinite scroll/minimal paneling + simpler art style) and how what is published in that format is not traditional superhero stories but things that might be more in line generically with what you would find in a webtoon (for example, making a whole comic dedicated to romance, which is a very popular webtoon genre but not a popular genre for the comics you’d find in an american comic book store)

it’s very different from the early days of infinite comics, where the paneling was often very important and it moved from panel to panel with powerpoint animations. and it’s always interesting to see how marvel and dc respond to other comic forms and try to capitalize on what is popular. especially right now when it seems like the traditional comic book industry is perpetually on the edge of dying.

ppl keep dogging on the sonic "shorter 'lower quality' games by people paid more please" image and like. tbh. i think its so stupid. i think the incredibly simplistic image macro is divinely good and needs no added nuance by anyone. And im not kidding

frantically going back and forth of who i potentially wanna romance in bg3. either the twink vampire or sweetheart smart wizard

so much of the clothing I have that was made in the 2000s and even early 2010s are so much better than most of the stuff I've gotten in the past few years.

If you lowered texture resolutions by half and cut 100 million polygons from a modern title, you wouldn't notice. At all.

If you removed the ability to jump in Mario, you'd notice, if you removed the guns from Halo, you'd notice.

Graphics have Never mattered and are affecting the quality and quantity of product in order to be advertisable. It's insane. We're decades removed from the bit wars and yet we still have not had a single game in which it's graphics ever mattered on a fundamental level.

Sure, games like Farcry 3 and Crysis were advertised and sold themselves on their visual fidelity, but do you play them? Ever? No you play the sequel or moved on entirely, and the graphics? Bout the same as then, just with Far More Filters than is comfortably viewable.

What it boils down to is Artistry has always been the important "visual" element to gaming and it got murdered for polygons you can't even fuckin' count, and what does it do for anyone? Increase prices on hardware, on software, and for what, possible, benefit?

None. We have yet to have a single example of Graphics ever improving or harming a game. Not a single one.
