The only thing that pisses me off at the moment (and I can't remember if this was what they did with the first game) is that the DLC codes I got for Darkseid and the Ultimate Edition extras are QR Codes only and dont have the option to use the five 4 digits numbers and letters like most dlc for Xbox One games have. So now if i want to install it, (hopefully) i can borrow a Kinect from a friend. Worst case scenario, spend $88 on a preowned Kinect I'm most likely only going to use for this problem and if I return/trade, get less than half my money back. Argh

The first season was great, I was drawn into the cheesy and lighthearted nature of the show, which stuck out as I couldn't believe there was a DC thing which wasn't necessarily for kids without ANGSTANGSTANGSTEDGEDGEDGE
Season 2 became darker and edgier, which I wasn't happy with. It got us Harry though, and it was still enjoyable in it's own right
Season 3 so far has been a goddamn letdown. They promoted the whole Flashpoint thing, solved in an episode. Turns out, there's this new fuck up because Barry stuck his dick in the speedforce and Cisco is constantly bitter, nothing like the character I ended up liking the most. "Oh, but he stopped being a bitter asshole during the alien thing" Yeah, the crossover with 3 shows I don't watch, not to mention Cisco apparently jeopardized the entire operation JUST to spite Barry. Then there's how Wally was treated! They kept going "Stay! No being a Speedster or you sleep outside!" even though everyone watching the show up to this point would scream "Wally's got reasons to want to be a Speedster and you're making him feel like shit!" Then Savitar hijacks the plot, and only NOW do we know who he is. Near the end of the season, which was a problem I had with the first 2 seasons, but it's like they deliberately made the mystery Savitar's identity drag on even longer for tradition! And then there's Caitlin's whole "Oh no I don't WANT to become Killer Frost" and she becomes evil because reasons.

And if you want last week's criticism, here it is. The entire episode happened because the cast is filled with fucking morons. "Hey guys, if Savitar's gonna find out due to Barry, let's not tell Barry our plan!" "Fuck that, make him unable to remember new things which we never tried before so we can majorly fuck up, and even if we're successful, Barry not being able to remember anything new from this point would be damaging to his job at the police department and life as a whole"
Not to mention it took a drop of sweat to break those glasses in the courthouse. Really? You're telling me that a group of scientists who made the Cold gun, a cell Metahumans can't escape from and MORE are too stupid to think "Hey, people sweat when under pressure in a courthouse, and Barry doesn't remember anything, so he'll likely sweat buckets, let's fix that!"

EDIT: Oh, and because season 3 is just the first 2 seasons but without what made those so enjoyable but rather constant drama, I predict they'll kill Julian during the final episode like how important characters had to die in season 2 to keep the new tradition. And Flashpoint gets undone after beating Savitar meaning Julian will never have existed and this whole season has been nothing but a waste of time for all of us!

Yup typical DC*It's like everything they do outside of their comics is complete shit these days ironically the opposite of Marvel* and CW horseshit.

From what I've seen, I'm must tired the the Bat worship and the continued dumping on Clark, to the point of effectively replacing him with Kara as Bruce's trusted Kryptonian in the ending they clearly want you to pick.

In other news, Manchester Black is back, so that's some appropriate timing with the release of Injustice 2.

To be fair, NRS seems to like to make Liu-Kang a bad guy these days, so its a bit more on NeatherRealms than WB with this. They have this thing about knocking their paragons/"faces" down a peg.

You just mentioned my other reason for disliking NRS their insistence on making MK as bland and boring looking as possible.

Compare MKX to MK9 or hell the new Killer Instinct it's night and day.

Wait, I'm not understanding what I did.

What about MK's hatred for their own lead have to do with Killer Instinct?

I meant the aesthetics of the game I hate the direction MK has gone the characters/levels used to be bright,colorful and their designs stood out they didn't shy away from the outrageous they embraced it, now it's just dull drab and boring to the point Killer Instinct feels more like an MK game then MK.
