I really don't agree with a lot of the Bethesda Game Studios criticism around their games taking too long
I agree that 15+ years between releases is insane & should be addressed, but forcing BGS...the dev known for buggy releases but otherwise very unique & special games...to work faster just seems like a recipe for disaster
BGS should be able to take their time & make special games. IMO Xbox should've been utilizing the franchises with other developers. Give someone else a swing at an Elder Scrolls game or hey literally any of the studios who openly said they'd love to work on Fallout (Larian, Obsidian) a chance at a spinoff
people keep wondering whether he likes the movie or not. ignoring the meme of how he reviews movies, it seems people struggle with criticism that doesn’t flat out say “this is good” or “is bad.”
criticism is talking about the thing. you decide for yourself if that sounds good
@ManyATrueNerd I actually feel kinda confident this will happen eventually after the OG trilogy got released. The way bigger question mark is the older spinoffs imo.
When do I get to play Outbreak on a modern platform?
Hard truth…
I can speak freely because I’m 65 years old and my pocketful of fucks is seriously depleted.
Working as a paralegal at various studios in LA for thirty years…I had the opportunity to observe studio executives closely.
They’re generally a slippery and clueless bunch who shouldn’t be allowed near anything remotely creative…but the new regime at Paramount is straight up evil.
I assure you.
These soulless bastards have nothing but contempt for a show about grace and redemption and the struggle against fascism.
ATLA is a mystery to them.
They. Do. Not. Value. The. Franchise.
The success of “Devil May Cry” Season 1 and Season 2 has clarified something that most people suspected, some people feared, and a few trolls are still emotionally negotiating with: Adi Shankar is a generational talent.
I am a generational talent in the measurable sense. In the “Adi Shankar can take a globally beloved video game franchise, metabolize twenty-plus years of iconography, preserve its soul, re-arrange its body, expand its audience, trigger its purists, convert its skeptics, and still make the algorithm bend the knee” sense.
My Devil May Cry anime wiped the floor with AAA IP adaptations with millions of dollars in marketing. I am a ratings God …. Two seasons in a row.
I set out to make American animation cool.
I set out to expand the footprint of “Devil May Cry” by orders of magnitude so that there can be more of it.
I set out to prove that video game adaptations do not have to be flavorless corporate sludge assembled in a content factory by emotionally vacant brand managers who secretly loathe the source material.
Mission accomplished ✅✅✅.
For those of you who have been paying attention to the episode names, I have been showing you the structure the entire time.
Season 3 was an inevitability.
This was always Dante’s Divine Comedy with guns and a red coat
Season 1 was Inferno🔥.
Season 2 was Purgatorio ⚖️.
Season 3 is Paradiso 🪽.
These three seasons make up “The Force Edge Saga.” Since inception “The Force Edge Saga” was designed as a movie trilogy disguised as a television series.
One last thing … “3” is not going to be a normal third “season” of a TV show. With “Season 3,” I am doing something very different. I am crafting a blueprint for how this game is won.
See You all in “Paradise.”

Christianity is so funny bc any religion that takes itself seriously would find it insulting to put the Word of God on a piece of cardboard meant to be covered in slop and thrown in the trash
