Merry Christmas Eve today and Merry Christmas tomorrow!

I will get it, but I just think of it as a PS4 game in my case, the same way I have Shovel Knight on Steam, but it just felt right to play on PS4. I'm waiting for a sale, but if it doesn't happen again (I know it went on sale for PS4 after the Game Awards, but I didn't have time to check my budget) I'll just pay the $20. 

The way THPS games used to be fun? You mean it has an amazing punk and ska soundtrack? Sweet!  

I never played Origins or much of any Assassin's Creed game. It's funny you say that, since the guy on GameRanx (YouTube channel) keeps saying Odyssey is just a step below Origins in every way. 

Like you said, I'm sold on the mouse and WASD works well, but having to use space to jump and the grenades being mapped to left control gave me some issues when I played just now. I will say the sound design is way more apparent on a laptop in front of my face than it was on a TV screen farther away from me when I played the demo on PS4 and holy shit is the movement smooth with a mouse. I think if I re-map the keys, I'll likely enjoy it much more on PC than I did on PS4. 

It's when choice paralysis starts coming for me that I'm actually glad there are whole genres of video games I just don't give a shit about. DQXI will never get me, motherfuckers! 

But then I think about how Ni No Kuni II has a Studio Ghibli art style and released on my birthday and I'm like, "Shit. I kinda want to play that."

It is, but I found it visually stunning. Not everyone agrees with me, and I understand the Power Rangers comparison, but it's leagues above a lot of stuff I've seen from a purely visual standpoint. Plus, there's a kaiju in it.

It depends on the movie. I expect Blade Runner to be cryptic and for part of the fun of it to be figuring out what the underlying message is. I'm glad they didn't spell it out too transparently, but it's definitely not for everyone. Did you like the original? 

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I really enjoyed Aquaman, but some of the expository dialogue ... dear God, no human would speak by reading the plot from a script. 

I heard about that in reviews, but I didn't really notice it. Someone said it was a comic book effect they were trying to emulate, and in Spider-Man's case I can believe that, but I don't know cause again, I really didn't notice. Probably not gonna see Grinch in theaters. 

He is the center of the story, but I liked the way they introduced the adult Spider-Man who shows him the ropes. 

I get what you're saying though. 

It's been a year or so, man, you're asking the wrong guy. lol I would say look up a Wikipedia article or something. You're making me want to watch it again. 

I kinda just assumed it was whatever corporation made all the other replicants? As far as how? However all the other replicants were made? 

I think you'd have your questions answered if you looked them up. I'm sure there are a lot of conflicting fan theories about what the story "means," but I think the plot beats and characters are solid enough a decent Wikipedia article could fill in most gaps.
