I was severely disappointed with Life is Strange I heard bad things about the game so I watched it instead of playing it myself. It's not a horrible game, but it falls into a ton of the traps of a time travel storyline, as well as the dialog feeling clunky and none of the surprises being all that surprising. Between this and many of my disappointments with Telltale, I'm pretty sure I'm done with episodic games.

I never understood the point with this kind of games, I just don't belive that there will be any real difference between your choices. No major plot point will change no matter what I do.

I never understood the point with this kind of games, I just don't belive that there will be any real difference between your choices. No major plot point will change no matter what I do. I'm right there with you. Most "choices" barely matter as most things will always be protected by the plot, and often it just comes down to who you will still see alive in the ending credit. Holding back as many spoilers as possible, the game, like most morality feature games, comes down to choose the greater good or be a giant evil douche. The end of the game becomes very obvious and unsatisfactory and just kind of left me raging because there's no real message in it other than Fate will screw you.

How could I forget the indomitable Movies with Mikey? He's recovering from a bad sickness but Mikey's videos are thought provoking and informative. Ooh, I didn't know about this guy. This is good stuff!

I had a whole post here, which appears I left mid-wrote (wrotten?) and then my computer rebooted to do a system software update. Which is, you know, sub-ideal.
We still have DVD stores in Japan and the streaming services are kinda LTTP – Amazon Prime Japan Streaming Video only started last November or so. Most of the USA shows are about a year behind. We finished Arrow s4 (an enjoyable version of Batman as an ensemble show), Flash s2 (plenty of wacky fun), Agents of SHIELD s2 (getting overly complicated, much like any Marvel comics series).

Netflix has Knights of Badassdom. This makes me very happy. Gotta watch that one again.
