rynlingI need to get better at expressing “negative” opinions, so please have a few more controversial takes:
(d) Tears of the Kingdom isn’t a good game, but it isn’t such a bad game either. It’s a decent handheld title that’s useful for occupying a fifteen-minute bus ride. I kind of wish Tears of the Kingdom didn’t exist, but there are worse Zelda games.
(e) The Marvel superhero movies are American fascist propaganda. I know this is a caricature of a liberal brainrot opinion, but it’s true. Ironically, those movies are way too long and extremely boring.
(f) I still resent the Barbie movie for representing Los Angeles as being full of white people and then making fun of the one character who’s trying to learn Spanish.
(g) The 1984 Ghostbusters movie isn’t that good. It’s actually kind of painful to watch. The 2016 remake is infinitely better, and I’m not just saying that because “it has girls.”
(h) FromSoft games would be objectively better if they were less difficult. They can still be difficult and punishing, of course. But FromSoft should really consider adjusting the number sliders just a little.

(h) I think the only FS stuff I've played is older and kind of a janky mess, which certainly increased the difficulty, and have never been entirely sold on their apparently polished difficulty. Secretly, I've always believed it to be jank apologism or something because everything else is good.
