lol yeah it says i don't like subplots that go fucking nowhere and are immediately dropped like they never happened. or that i like satisfying endings to story arcs. or that I prefer things to have meaning rather than happen randomly for no reason. or that I think you should take less than 5 seasons to tell a story that's at best one season's worth. care to admit? lmao like it has some moral value. it's just a bland ass series with mediocre and inconsistent writing carried by amazing actors.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]do you even understand the words you're saying? I'm telling you they're fumbling story arcs over multiple episodes and you think that means I have bad attention span? do you know what any of that means?
the writers had bad attention span, not me. they kept forgetting and abandoning their own shit all the time. seems like you were too busy getting distracted by shit to realize that.
same with media literacy. I'm saying they kept adding random shit without any meaning or purpose and you say that's bad media literacy.
so enlighten us mr media literacy man, what was the point of the stupid fucking twins

I stole this from Instagram but you dont know that

When was cyberpunk controversial?

at launch, it was really buggy. people in Lemmy tend to hold one hell of a grudge for some reason

Season 4 is the best one in my opinion.
Edit: Overall, Better Call Saul is much better than Breaking Bad.
Bruh. Better call saul was so boring. I got bored of Chuck of whatever his name is and the electricity phobia thing. Legal drsma is so borinh.
The Drug Trade is why Breaking Bad was fun and exciting, especially done by an amateur schoolteacher and not some hardened criminal.

I finished up to season 4, wondering when it was supposed to get good. I know there's a lot of hype around it, but I guess it just wasn't for me.
I am baffled by your opinion here, can I ask... what was another show, or season of a show that, in your opinion, did 'get good'?
-
Good god I hope that tweet's fake cause if not, that person obviously doesn't proofread stuff lol. also Breaking Bad is one of the best shows ever and you should give it a watch
If you have a 1% error rate in tweets, even if you proofread that's still a .01% chance to make a mistake. With the volume of tweets it shouldn't surprise you that some people make mistakes even if they proofread.

Idk man, as a science communicator, I watched it and thought it sucked. I know enough about any science field to explain to laypeople, but not enough to properly engage experts usually. I try, but my specialty is breadth, not depth.
It’s not a bad show per se, but it’s a bad show, imho, as far as normal human motivations are concerned. Who gets their shit handled and still risks their whole family's shit? Like maybe it’s just me but that’s stupid and hard to believe.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]... You are saying you find the idea of someone being very reckless and engaging in very risky behavior, for the thrill of the whole thing, to feel more alive than just going through the mundane motions of an average and safe life, to feel powerful, to prove to themselves that they can do something remarkable and be exceptional...
You find this stupid and unrealistic?
Like, I'll give you that the science of the show has flaws, but like... it is at least fairly within the ballpark for most things, decently detailed with a lot of other things... like, the FCC is not going to let you air a show that provides detailed, accurate instructions on how to cook meth or make a thermite bomb/lance, lol.
But... I don't get how you find the concept of people being motivated by ... whatever in particular it is, to do dangerous things... is stupid an unrealistic. This happens tens of millions of times, every day.
The entire point of Walt breaking bad is that... yeah, he had a taste of all that violent and dangerous shit... and he liked it.
At one point, I think the last time he sees his wife, Skyler, Skyler basically asks him why he did all this insane shit... and Walt more or less says, I'm not gonna lie to you, I'm not gonna bs you... "I was good at it."
His normal life was unfullfilling to him, constantly being disrespected and belittled, not feeling fulfilled by what he had... and he found and chose a path that granted him the validation and respect he felt he never had.
Yep, that destroyed him and his family and many other people in the end.
The whole show is thus a cautionary tale, that even an otherwise meek, intelligent, and generally respectable man can repress much of his true nature, and that if this isn't consciously addressed and reconciled responsibly, in a healthy way... it can manifest as a transformation into an entirely different person, with different fundamental values and goals.
Walt is basically a midlife crisis gone nuclear, a giant episode of toxic masculinity bursting forth, a man's repressed shadow self (if you're into Jung) subsuming and transforming him into a monster.

You can declare what ever you want. It doesn't make you correct.

If you mean the game it still is because the developers lied to people to sell more while making an image they are the complete opposite.
If you mean the meme it's probably because Cyberpunk abbreviation is the same as child porn.

Good thing is nowadays it's being referenced to as CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material), due to children are unable to give consent and some weirdos tried to whitewash it by calling the less outrageous stuff "child erotica" or "artistic nudes of children".🤮
Or loli
But I would think CP is more well known than CSAM

Ahhhhh that
I remember now thanks
About the grudge, yeah that's a gamer thing

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Debated not posting this comment just because the subject itself is so icky:
I am so glad that this is the term now. Some freaks argue that CP where a minor isn't straight-up r*ped is "victimless" (too young, they didn't know they were recorded, etc). The new CSAM term is a line in the sand and makes it clear that any material featuring minors created for that purpose is a product of sexual abuse even if they "consent" to it. Legally, they can't consent and the only way to create the material is to harm innocent children.
Anyway, I'm going to go find brain bleach like videos of a kitten and a giant dog being best friends or something now...

Hey, don't knock cyberpunk till you try it.

CP77.
Its really not that hard to abbreviate Cyberpunk 2077.
Maybe he didn't mean Cyberpunk 2077, and just meant the genre in general? I mean, there are other cyberpunk games, plus tv shows, movies, anime, literature, etc.

It had a buggy launch. Then they fixed it. And they've kept fixing it. Making it better all the time. Now there's a very small yet exceptionally loud contingent of annoying internet shitheads who make their entire personality shitting on Cyberpunk forever.
They had a bug once and now they refuse to play the complete, and exceptionally well polished game. But they're very very loud about how shit the game still is even though they haven't played more than 2 hours of it since launch.

That’s two Breaking Bad memes I’ve seen pop up in as many days, and I hadn’t seen any in years. Just started a rewatch the other week.

I can't think of anything I really liked, but season 2 or 3 of Game of Thrones I started getting into it.

You gave it a generous amount of your time. I'd say if you don't like it in the first few episodes it might not be for you. I was hooked almost immediately.
There's some shows that I've seen where the first season is boring, but the seasons after are much better.
My friends kept telling me to hang in there, it gets good, but at that point I gave it up.
