My thoughts on why The Legend Reborn looks so bland, from a recent review I did of it. You can watch the full thing here if you're interested:

@Vrahno While this does create a plot hole, part of me is glad they barely mentioned elemental powers. To me, LoMNs main flaw is that it's trying to shove way too many ideas into too short of a runtime. Throwing elemental powers into it would just make it even more of a rushed mess
@pukicho A true seashell fan would not be deterred by this. A true fan would take advantage of everyone being distracted by penis to steal the seashells without anyone noticing
@SwiftieofCain It seems that the term "AI" has replaced the term generic in recent years. Cuz thats what this style really is, it's generic. That's why AI can copy it so well, it's a really common style. But nowadays, people who don't know any better will just call anything vaguely generic "AI"
@SatireStation@SwiftieofCain Wdym it "ignores the rule of thirds"? If you're talking about composition, not only is there far more to composition than that rule, but this trailer actually has plenty of shots that utilize the rule of thirds
@OliverJia1014 As a gen Z myself I can say it's not a matter of fear, it's a matter of cost. When the price of everything is going up, and finding even a bad job is nigh impossible, then most people aren't gonna spend what little they have on expensive non-essentials like alcohol
@yourtooslow666@ThatGoblin69@LonelyGoomba Yes they are. The term fungus is just a conspiracy by big mushroom to make it seem like Gus is actually having fun while eating mushrooms
@undyingnephalim I don't think this is a case of AI, though. I'm guessing what happened here is the same forced realism that gave us ugly Sonic a few years ago. And because cats aren't pink irl, they reduced the pink to a few faint blodges, accidentally making her look like a drug addict
@undyingnephalim Which is a big problem, since the whole point of character design is visual communication. Especially in a video game, where the player has to quickly react to whatever information they recieve
@GlobalBoxOffice@thevscooper I'd love an aliens style action horror movie based on Metroid. Trouble is, this is Nintendo. They're not gonna make that. At best, we'll get Star Wars but with Sam Ran and Captain Falcon and Captain Olimar are there and then the movie makes 1 gizillion dollars anyway
@MooXProductions the sony part does give me some hope, at least. Things like the spiderverse movies prove they can actually bring new ideas to old IPs that aren't just nostalgia bait. The real question is if nintendo will let them make more than just nostalgia bait
@TSoS_ I see you have not been tormented by Transformers The Last Knight. TRoS is abysmal but it can at least keep its aspect ratio consistent between shots. And the editing is actually somewhat functional. The Last Knight does not reach even those levels of quality
@LonelyGoomba@ThatMetroidGuy The music is really good, most if not all of the boss fights are great, the visuals and atmosphere are great, etc. The game shines when it's allowed to be an actual Metroid. It's when it's forced to be botw and to focus on a poorly written story that the game chokes
@LonelyGoomba@AnotherRosa and I'm saying this as someone who actually played galaxy 2 first as a kid, and wouldn't have galaxy 1 until a year or two later (which, when you're a small kid, is a long time). And despite being more nostalgic for 2, i still find myself leaning towards galaxy 1 more often
@LonelyGoomba@AnotherRosa Even as a kid I always had a hard time deciding which game I liked better. Purely in terms of gameplay, I think 2 is better. However, 1 just had a more coherent story and stronger theming, which made it more memorable and impactful imo
