Summer Movie Wager
Well Barbie happened. And it ended up with the year's biggest opening weekend. Combined with Oppenheimer this weekend was apparently the biggest box office weekend since Avengers: Endgame
https://www.the-numbers.com/news/254630830-Weekend-projections-Barbie-and-Oppenheimer-deliver-biggest-weekend-since-Endgame
And that means that Barbie shot up to 4th place overall this summer just after its first three days. With the top 10 movies currently being: 1. Spider-Verse 2, 2. Guardians 3, 3. The Little Mermaid, 4. Barbie, 5. Indy 5, 6. Transformers (some number), 7. Fast X, 8. Elemental, 9. Sound of Freedom, 10. Mission Impossible 7
That means that our scores are currently as follows:
1. kentona, 57 points
2. Dudesoft, 44 points
3. frogge, 43 points
3. Darken, 43 points
5. Shinan, 42 points
6. pianotm, 34 points
Lots will still happen. Sound of Freedom's weird march to the top seems to continue and messing up everyone's lists. Barbie will probably rise even further and possibly take the top spot, messing up everyone's lists and Oppenheimer is going to take a spot possibly pushing Mission Impossible or Elemental completely off the top 10.
Then there's still movies like TMNT and Haunted Mansion coming up but they are unlikely contenders at this point.

Baldur's Gate 3 lets you frick a bear... no, I'm not making this up. How is this allowed?
Summer Movie Wager
These are preliminary numbers after this weekend. But I thought I'd do my next update when we had a new number one movies of the summer which either happens this weekend or then happens on Monday. (It's Spider-Verse 2)
So the top 8 summer movies are currently: Spider-Verse 2, Guardians 3, The Little Mermaid, Transformers, Fast X, Indy 5, Elemental and The Flash.
And with that standing the Movie Wager standing is as follows:
Frogge: 41 points
kentona: 39 points
Dudesoft: 39 points
Darken: 37 points
Shinan: 34 points
pianotm: 31 points
The big movies still coming are Mission Impossible next weekend and then Barbie and Oppenheimer and then a bit later TMNT.
I had bet on Ruby Gillman which bombed hard. Elemental has had quite some staying power but I did bet it to be higher than it is likely to be and The Flash was a gigantic bomb as we all know. Oh and... Indy 5 has no chance of getting the #1 slot that I bet it at. But it's doing okay numbers and will probably at least beat the overperforming (to me) Transformers (which just overtook Fast X)

Summer Movie Wager
Yeah Flash flopped hard and the way it is dropping (below Elemental in both's sixth day and Elemental was also a bit of a flop) it might not even end up in the top 10 at the end of the summer...
Seems there are no massive releases this weekend so this would have been great if The Flash had been better, to reign supreme for a second weekend. Instead I bet Spiderverse 2 is going to take in a whole bunch of money. (and maybe even pass Guardians 3)

Recommend me a game with villain as protagonist
How did I miss that the original topic creator added spam into their post at some point and that this was damn spammer all along.
Summer Movie Wager
author=Frogge
I still can't believe guardians made more than spiderverse?? The movie I've seen like 5 people talk about made more money than the one that's literally an internet sensation right now??? I see like 10 drawings of miguel o hara's ass on my twitter timeline every day?????? (Perhaps that's just very telling about me)
Looking at the day-by-day Spider-Verse 2 is beating Guardians 3:
https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Spider-Man-Across-the-Spider-Verse-(2023)#tab=box-office
https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Guardians-of-the-Galaxy-Vol-3-(2023)#tab=box-office
After 15 days in theaters Spider-Verse 2 is at 261m and after 15 days in theaters Guardians 3 was at 243m. It's going to be very close considering all the competition that is coming up but we'll see.
The Flash's Friday was about half that of Spider-Verse 2 and Guardians 3 so it doesn't look like it's going to beat those. It seems to be more in the Fast X and Transformers range. So it seems I bet a bit much on Keaton :D
Summer Movie Wager
Well the summer has started and five of the big contenders have been released. Guardians 3, Spider-Man, The Little Mermaid, Fast X and Transformers
With those occupying the top 5 slots at the moment (in that order) the score is currently as follows:
Dudesoft: 33 points
pianotm: 26 points
Frogge: 24 points
Darken: 20 points
Shinan: 19 points
kentona: 18 points
But the current points are pretty meaningless as in the coming month we are seeing The Flash (this weekend!), Ruby Gillman, Mission Impossible, Indiana Jones, Oppenheimer and Barbie. So the big 'uns are still on the way. (Oh and Asteroid City and Elemental too I guess)
However I know for my own list that The Little Mermaid did not perform to my expectations (#2 slot) and Spider-Man overperformed having already overtaken Mermaid despite being out for one week less. Fast X has also underperformed compared to what I expected, with it opening worse than the previous Fast movie. It is doing numbers internationally though but here in the movie wager international numbers are useless.
My hopes are now for Indy, but those are futile hopes...

What do you look for in games that you want to play?
I like turn based tactics. If a (tactical) game is shown to me to have suppressive fire and actual usable smoke grenades I'm also immediately more interested.
If there's a slightly grander scale (for example there's a strategic overlay with or without turn based tactics attached) I also like logistics. Often somewhat simplified logistics to be sure, but I like the idea of having to resupply and keep track of rations and all that good shit.
And sometimes I just like Rocket League.

Do RPG Maker devs dream of 2k3 games?
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Autorun events getting stuck in faulty switches... I watched three-tile rules break near the edge of the maps. All those moments will be lost in time, like playing in debug mode... Time to gammak.
Censorship in Video Games
author=Red_Nova
There is an artistic merit to replacing swear words with symbols: comedic relief. To me, at least, it's funnier to hear words bleeped out or censored than the actual words because it implies that the character is so foul mouthed or raunchy that even the game itself has to step in and apologize for all the swearing.
Yeah. I fairly recently found out (by recently I mean in the last ten years) that South Park uncensor their episodes on some platforms and I've occasionally stumbled upon it uncensored and the fact is that it's just not as funny when it isn't bleeped.
But I do still think that "toggles" make it worse. In the same way that a free 2 play game with a cosmetics only season pass make the game worse. It is not in a tangible "this is literally worse" way. But it is in the way that the game is designed around facilitating and enabling the thing.
As I said, if you can cut out content and it doesn't affect the game, then did that content need to be in there in the first place? And if you can add content and it doesn't affect the game, does it need to be added at all?
I think it's similar with removing/adding coarse language or gore. The game is designed around one thing being around and if you design it around both things being around it will inevitably lead to a worse game. Not in a measurable way, but in that "feel" way. One way of playing will be inferior. (Like how South Park is worse without the bleeping)
