@jayexci2 I'm going to be that akchually guy, but it doesn't start in The Harvest or with the Seventh Doctor. You need the start of the Forge arc or a lot of the later reveals don't pay off
Not to say that this isn't the single best run in the audio series, but start at the start
@WilliamWho27 If anything was mishandled to this degree in any other business, heads would roll.
It's one thing for this to happen internally - but for this to be as obvious as it is to the average layman is catastrophic
@DW_MidJourney They sort of did though. At this stage it was up against juggernauts like TNG which blew it out of the water in terms of scope and production. Even if the McCoy stuff was good in the last few seasons, it looked like a CBBC production and laughable on the world stage
@isaac_d_bowen@TheMindProbe2 In case it isn't obvious what this was about - this was a a post about how the next showrunner should be a "white male" now deleted for reasons of cowardice and/or stupidity.
Not everyone likes their racism and sexism being shown up it seems.
@isaac_d_bowen@TheMindProbe2 How about we just hire talented people with great ideas that care about what they're doing rather than excluding anyone because of their race, gender or ethnicity? How about we try and get the right person for the job that can make something for mass audiences? Just an idea
@PyroTyrant I think honestly I'd call into question why that was a stretch too far for you but the Master creating an alternate timeline that gets fixed after the Dobby Doctor becomes Jesus wasnt
@WilliamWho27 If you were willing to give it a shot after Church and Space Babies, Devils Chord was definitely going to kill you off. By Rogue it was obvious that it was no longer made for a family audience
@Europiain@WilliamWho27 DT was obviously very aware that his second tenure was very much a 'break glass in case of emergency' moment. You can't pull moves like that over and over again. without wearing out everyone's credibility. Fans included.
@Spyingwolfheart@Sebbywebz@PandaKingEX I didn't say it was a successor. Quite the opposite. It's not a mobile game. I *am* looking for a 2D game in the vein of 1-6. I am also not looking for DMC. I actually think the Octopath games are terrible and fall apart in terms of story but it's still what the franchise needs
@Sebbywebz@PandaKingEX I don't think anyone's acting like it's 17. They're excited because this is the exact thing the series *should* be doing to cater for all sorts of fans that they can churn out relatively cheaply and quickly
@Sebbywebz Nah man. This is precisely what the series needs. Lower budgets, back to basics, great stories with iterative turn based combat which they can churn out every year or two. This is a move which could actually save the brand and bring it into the zeitgeist for younger players
@jw180704@WilliamWho27 I mean fired in the sense of. You said you'd deliver, we needed you to deliver, that's breach of contract, we have to pull the plug
@WilliamWho27 Id say theres kernels like not approaching an actor for the Doctor, but to say no script? Maybe it wasnt finished but come on
A ploy like this is obviously bound for bad publicity when the show needed all the good publicity it could get. No marketing team would have allowed it
@noelle_1025 Spoiler, they got rid of Fort Condor and turned it into something else which works just as well if not better. I'd put money on seeing an excavation team in the north. Rebirth works really well as the game that it is but Midgar didn't offer 8x more content to be made 8x longer
@WilliamWho27 At the end of the day you have to ask what makes sense and what was factual. BP is filming Wednesday til Sept. Reshoots now run until Oct. MG claims he saw scripts. No one seems to believe RTDs comments which go against earlier comments and clues meaning its unlikely they're true
