Another movie review, this time a tele-movie. Rogue Agent with that handsome guy from War and Peace…
The clue to every con. They isolate you and they want money.
Really good movie on how cons happen, how cons work by appealing to our better nature and with fear and what it takes to get out of one.

Ugh. I really want to like paradox games, at least based on the description, most of the game they publish are right up my alley. But it also feels like they only make games to sell DLCs for them, which sort of kills my enjoyment. Like cities skylines, I should really really really like, hell I have 30 hours on it, I want to like it. But I just don’t enjoy it. It feels like no matter how much I spend on it, there’s always more that should’ve been in the base game but wasn’t. Millenia and Victoria 3 I want to buy, but they seem like the same story.
Victoria 3 (a $70 game) has a $40 DLC releasing in a month that includes a bunch of stuff I just assumed would’ve been included in the base game, like you can nationalise your assets… In a country simulator… For an extra $40… I don’t think I’m going to buy cities skylines 2, partly because of price, but also because it’s probably going to cost like 2 grand to actually own all the different parts of the game, just like the first one.
I know that to continue receiving game updates, game studios need a way of continuos monetisation, and it’s unfair to expect them to provide years of updates for a $40 upfront fee. But the way paradox does their DLC just feels tacky and like a cashgrab. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind paying even $80 for a fully fledged, actually enjoyable, city builder if it included everything I’d need to play and enjoy the game in that price.

Last bit of TV stuff.
In the first episode of Invincible there is an ink painting of bamboo in Nolan and Debbie’s house with the characters for Totori, not the words for bamboo. Obviously a homage to Miyazaki.
