Thunderbolts kind of fills that in somewhat. Plus there's no Avengers/"group up" film at all in Phase 4. Which sort of makes sense - from the Avengers type perspective the big bad has been defeated (not like Loki has been in position to pop in and go "btw Kang is a big bad now"), and a bunch of them have been killed off or retired. Fury is off planet (as is Thor, though not really Earth based anyway), Wong seems to be almost the defacto super hero head atm but purely by circumstance of being the Sorceror Supreme (he has so far been in Spider-man NWH, Shang-Chi, Dr Strange MOM, and soon She-Hulk). Wouldn't surprise me if he forms Midnight Sons (and we have a few members of that in-play). Could be a neat addition - they've got cosmic marvel why not mystic marvel in there (though that is one area DC tends to be much better on).

Yeah, that's definitely an issue I have, I can't get excited for new Netflix stuff because I don't believe for a second that they won't cancel it halfway through.

Are you telling me that the correct pronunciation was "Yoobisoft" this entire time?

The only actor I can think of off the top of my head who doesn't look like himself (if you get what I mean) from film to film is Gary Oldman. Guy is a freakin' chameleon.

Ah man, sorry @TheMightyEthan, forgot that you replied (didn't help my hotel Wifi and phone data troubles started around then too lol) But yeah, Dean got it right. It also got to be able to be produced from the land he got, which is why the whole iron bacteria thing was so genius. Everyone for years mentioned how he got no iron ore until he finally cracked it. He does have "iron ore" but in an unconventional form that actually works for his purposes. He's kind of just fuel and time limited now else I think he could figure out how to make steel (see all his experiments in furnace designs plus that turbine). Iron is a pretty good step up though.

Generally building on what he's had before- but there's quite a few things I suspect weren't done in the stone age but kind of a mix of "what we know now" with "what tools they could have had to hand" (so like no forged or power tools). e.g bacteria isn't exactly a thing that they'd have known much about in the stone age period (or Iron Age as this would be). Pretty sure he builds a turbine at one point too for a kiln, just with like wood and ceramic. (oh and in case don't know - put on captions for his video - it has the description of what he's doing) edit: what do you know, he has a little turbine in this.

I'm sure most of you have seen clips of the PSX demake, but now noclip have a documentary on it. I'm not a huge bloodborne person, but the demake has been interesting, and almost nostalgic, in how it translates a modern 8th gen game into 5th gen sensibilities and Lilith does go into those considerations. Especially how the controller is totally different, and the style of menu/inventories compared to modern games. It's neat.

Some semi-recent purchases: This was on sale and had been eyeing it up a while, had some really positive reviews and from the bits of gameplay I'd seen would tick a fair few boxes for me. Got this the other day as a sort of "tide me over" game. Into my Far Cry games a bit; they're a known quantity and for £12 can't really take issue with it. I think this one kind of came out without a splash (maybe in the same period of time as another game?)
