Comment on Kotaku being Kotaku
ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 1 year agoThey generally don’t work as movies because no one ever follows the story that’s right in front of them. They always add some stupid artistic bullshit preference of their own which causes a huge disconnect from the source material.

Writing for games is usually different than writing for movies.
I believe this is why games tend to do well as TV series – more overlap there.

I don’t buy that. It’s possible but the producers always want to make it “theirs” and it’s not. It’ll never be theirs. The best they could do is just follow the source material as much as possible.
No one cares about your “quirky” changes. And this is quite evident in all the video game tv series that fail. Because the source material was basically thrown away completely. Because they think we’ll gobble up anything just because of the name.
