  • They are providing extra service. Using Plex on mobile is now free for everyone, which is a huge step forward. It’s not a bad trade off for server owners to require Plex pass for remote viewing (which is only necessary if you’re not using a VPN like tailscale for free remote viewing).

    I don’t get why people are freaking out over a one off fee to unlock something that has running costs for Plex, which itself isn’t necessary if you just opt for a free VPN client like tailscale.








  • Unfortunately it takes a while to settle in to meaningful stories. The latter half of season 2 is, in my opinion, on par with the rest of the franchise, but by that time they had already been cancelled.

    It’s the only one of the three shows that I don’t rewatch. It doesn’t lend itself to rewatching due to its drawn out pacing. Barely anything happens in each episode.


  • Stark made the suit with no help. He doesn’t need a specific suit because he has the skill to invent whatever he may need.

    At this point, Peter can’t make himself a suit like that, so if he is nothing without it, he can’t respect the power it brings. But he isn’t nothing without it, which is what Stark is trying to teach him: not to rely on power of others.








  • Me too, especially because I love Commandos. Timekeepers doesn’t have even half the amount of elegance in its level design. Half the enemies are standing still facing the wall with no-one else around; at that point why bother placing an enemy there at all?

    It’s mind boggling that this was originally supposed to be a single release game. Ok, so they blew past the deadline, and they made the interesting choice of releasing half of it, with the rest free later. At some point they must have realised that can’t work because then they are just spending more money to get the game finished after they’ve already taken profits. So now they’ve come up with the idea of season passes in the hopes that one day the sales will catch up to development costs. But they are doing so badly that the rest of the first game needs beta testing? The second half that was supposed to be released for free in April? Sucks to be whoever invested capital in this project.
