For about the first hour of Transistor I was barely holding on, thinking of just stopping and moving on to the next game, but once I got a few more skills and the systems fully opened up I fell in love with the game.

I'm looking forward to Wonder Woman, but at this point I don't listen to anyone about DC movies; regardless of whether they're positive or negative.
Same here, the talk around super hero movies in general has taken on a completely toxic "us vs. them" mentality, it feels like grade school console wars crap. I'll either see it in the theater with a few friends or watch it once it's out on blu ray, and I'll probably enjoy it, like it I did BvS and Suicide Squad, and that will be that.
@panfoot: i will admit that it seems weird fo Korn to do a dubstep album at the height of the dubstep craze, but it was the best thing Korn did in quite a while. I really like that album. I think that one is being held back because a lot of people don't give a fuck about Korn anymore, and others that do kind got up there own ass because it wasn't 'metal' enough.
Fair enough, I like a good bit of outlier albums myself (I do have a soft spot for some of Chris Cornell's Scream, I like a lot of 90's Bowie like Earthling and Hours..., absolutely love Smashing Pumpkin's Adore), I just think it's one of those ones things that never really found a home, to different for the long term fans that have come to expect a very particular style from an artist, but maybe not quite different enough to really catch on with people who never would have listened to the band before.
I love the game, it's a great game, but the cliffhanger ending and lack of any closure whatsoever have pretty just left me unable to care about continuing stories in games anymore. I'd already dealt with the disappointing cliffhanger/unresolved endings of games before, like with Halo 2 and with KOTOR 2, but in those cases at least we got a follow up/they did try their best to wrap up the story. Half Life though, was different, Half Life 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, I still replay it every couple of years(I think i've completed it about 7 times now), and to get some great follow ups(Episode 1 is a good game even if it does feel a bit more like "here is some cool set pieces we couldn't figure out where to put in the original game, Episode 2 really got back on track with the inventiveness of the gameplay), and then...nothing. There was so much great setup and promise of what's to come in those last 15 minutes of the game, and then ending on a cliffhanger followed by...nothing for 10 years now. At this point I would just be happy to get a "We have are not working on any Half Life games at this point in time" message from Valve. I just want some closure, any closure at this point.
This me reminds me of that time Korn decided to make a dubstep album or when Chris Cornell (RIP) decided to make a pop album, who knows if it was motivated by creativity or money, but it didn't really please much of anyone.
I also had the same issue with Immortal Redneck Quick Look at first and it looks like the issue was, that the video isn't on youtube. I can't find the Invisible Inc. video or the Us vs. Them Overwatch video on youtube either so that does seem to explain it.
