Random Stuff

I haven't been watching anything really "new to me" lately so I haven't posted much. However, that is not to say that I have not been idle and not watching or experiencing anything. So let's go over some of that shall we?

Another Me: Okay, this one WAS new to me, but it was shit. This is a horror story(I think?) starring Sophie Turner(you know her as Sansa Stark if you watch Game of Thrones), which is initially what drew me to watch it in the first place. Unfortunately, the plot is extremely lackluster, and the characters were bland and barely developed any personality at all. It also had a subplot that didn't really go anywhere exciting. Overall, I would give this a miss.

Being able to shrink down to the size of an ant, and control literal ants themselves, it can only be the start of a wacky adventure!

Random Thoughts - Melty Blood: AACC Steam Edition

Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code launched on Steam not even 3 full weeks ago(at the time of this writing) and the online community is already a total ghost town. With such an anticipated launch for such a vaunted classic fighting game, it seems like this would be a total impossibility. Unfortunately, reality is much more unkind than most people would like to accept. So how did this happen? I suspect there are at least 2 main reasons: Old "pro" players at the game and hyperbolic discrediting of the game's online viability.
