Looking over the updates for Ultra Street Fighter 4. El Fuerte got hella nerfed.
It's one thing to only give token buffs to a character that most players hate. It's another thing to do so when the new mechanic essentially guts said character's entire playstyle.
I'm not even asking for much. Just something that Elf players can use offensively. Like a cross-up attack (which you gave to Dhalsim and Hakan, of all characters), or a bit less recovery on some of his moves, given that they're going to whiff twice as often now.
But nooooo, all the buffs are to keep Elf players from being beaten by wake-up games. Which, as I've said before, is getting weakened overall in the new game.
-sigh- well at least Dudley and Bison got buffed. Well, Dudley got buffed at least. Most of Bison's buffs revolve around mechanics that i haven't actually learned yet.
I dunno what it is, but there's something genuinely creepy about MC's whole "build-fight-live" concept that I can't get into. Perhaps it's the spiders. (Hardcore mode especially scares me due to my aversion to permanent death in games.)
Creative mode's alright for a momentary bit of building fun but not much beyond that. Ergo, MC in general: not my thing, though I can (somewhat) understand why people like it.

Not every magical weapon is forged of meteorite iron under an unusual planetary conjunction, inscribed with gilded runes of ancient power, and imbued with supernatural strength and sharpness through mystical rites and sorcerous incantations. In truth, many of the most powerful weapons of lore are possessed of far humbler beginnings -- common metal, torn from an enemy's grasp in a dire emergency. If the warrior survives the day, the weapon will likely be kept. Polished, sharpened, and re-sharpened, it will be carried from battle to battle, becoming as much a part of the man as his own arm, and as his name rises from warrior to hero to legend, so too will an aura of reverence and awe begin to surround the blade. Legend and belief are powerful forces, and it should be no surprise that a powerful artifact might have become powerful simply by dint of everyone believing it to be powerful. That is, after all, where the gods came from.
I read an article that made a very convincing argument that Noah was basically presenting a Gnostic reinterpretation of Genesis. So the Creator really did want to kill all of humanity, Noah's family included, because the Creator was actually the Demiurge, not the true supreme being.
We've had a number of conversations about the upcoming Moses movie.
Besides the complaint that all other Moses movies being redundant because The Ten Commandments and The Prince of Egypt exist, conversation mostly revolves around noticeable departures from the Biblical story, to the point that they might as well just make their own story from scratch.
Speaking of TMNT, I was reading through the discussion on another forum. A bunch of people were saying that this movie wasn't very good, but it laid the groundwork so that the sequel could be really really great!
That line of thinking is all Christopher Nolan's fault, isn't it? Dude writes a Batman movie that deliberately leaves room for a future sequel, rather than jumping straight to the most famous Bat-stuff. Then the sequel is widely regarded as even better, and it makes a bazillion dollars. So now everyone thinks that's how you build a blockbuster franchise.
I guess the Spider-Man and X-Men film series had the surprisingly better sequels before Batman Begins did. But they still operated under the old model of "Start off with the most iconic villain. How will we top that for the sequel? Eh, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it."
I think the whole franchise thing was set out by Harry Potter and the MCU more than anything.
Difference is, each Harry Potter movie told a reasonably complete story, and the MCU's continuity was in the sidelines, and how Avengers was fun because it was bringing together several very disparate universes into a contiguous one.
