Maul's death in Rebels is one of the best scenes in any Star Wars media. Obi-Wan showing mercy to the man who took so much from him. Maul being at peace for the first and only time in his life. Both coming to a mutual understanding of how they were manipulated and lost everything. Just perfect.

And y'all forgive me, I've been in a "mood" the past week. But what bums me out is seeing Retro Gaming creators/fans I've admired for years clapping like seals as soon as old devs announce a new game in a franchise that's been dead since the 80s and say nothing about them using Gen AI to do it.

I still can't believe 3 months ago Bungie killed Destiny, a 12 years old franchise, to focus on a new game with now currently 2k players average. It doesnt make any sense. I can't understand.

To be honest, Ocarina of time remake is way too expensive. Unless they show off several new features that weren’t in the original, I would rather save my $100 CAD on something else

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios.

I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on “The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager’s office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “No farting.” I said, “It’s out.”That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.

I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.

That’s great advice for life.

It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.

It’s very straightforward: I don’t need to pay devs anymore because I can use generative AI, which admittedly we know players don’t like. Fortunately that’s not an issue because nobody can afford consoles anymore, because of inflated prices due to AI. Let’s invest in AI. - a very clever businessman

Destiny didn’t fall short of expectations, LEADERSHIP did. Some of the most out of touch people who only saw the $ & held a beloved franchise to the coals because it didn’t fit their margins. Devs suffocated under the immeasurable weight of their greed. Everyone who has worked there deserves better.
