Because he required little skill. I got murdered by Hanzo a whole bunch and the arrows weren't anywhere near me on the replay, so I decided to play him and see what was up. Turns out you just didn't need to aim with him at all, I could throw arrows around willy-nilly and rack up the kill count with shots that went extremely wild and took zero aiming because that's how he was designed. That kind of zero-skill/max-reward gameplay was really not fun for me and put me off even bothering with the game for an awful long time until the Halloween event got me back in.

They seem to have fixed this though, which is nice. He's not awful to play as anymore and actually feels like he takes some skill to be effective with.

I'd buy a shop and turn it into a Street Fighter II arcade.

While the companies are willing to disclose potentially objectionable material that may be involved in the role, they refuse to tell the performer’s agent what game the actor will be working on.

So they're striking partially because they're not told what videogame they're being paid to work on? Ho-kay, I'm sure there are plenty of people looking to get into the industry right now and this pettiness is great news for them!

Never Let Me Go - 2/5

Outside of the central mystery regarding what was going on it was incredibly dull, and even that felt more and more underwhelming as more was revealed. Hated all the characters, found a lot of it poorly written, and it didn't really feel like it had a lot to offer. I know what it was trying to get across regarding the characters' blind acceptance of what was going on, but they just came across as morons. Sure, their situation was normalised to them, but it's not like they were actually brain-washed or anything; it's ridiculous that not a single one of them put up a fight when they got old enough to think "hey, this is actually kind of bullshit." Egregiously overrated book.

What's the consensus on Izetta? I've been feeling pretty meh on it, feels like it's missing something in the characterisation. The latest episode in particular: the first half was pretty dull with a bunch of nameless soldiers in trenches as the focus, and I only really enjoyed the second half as a spectacle. Expectations might have something to do with it.

UFC 204 was a great time but if WWE ever do a PPV over here they need to make sure it doesn't start at 1AM...

I'm going to UFC 204 tomorrow. I'll see if I can get some pictures of wrestlers.

What happened to him? Can we get a tl;dr?

Sure, let's commit to the entire Malazan series.

If it had a 4K Blu Ray player it would be over £400 and I wouldn't be buying it. Who buys movies on disc any more anyway? That market's shrinking, it makes no sense to invest in it. Better to cut costs to get more buyers in.
