Without the middling ones to compare against would the great, memorable encounters still be great and memorable?

I am mostly referring to adventure paths and similar campaigns (things like Night Below, which predate adventure paths) since that seemed to be the point of Retreater's original post. Shorter, standalone adventures shouldn't be stuffed with too much bloat but even then I can't say I would be...

I guess bloat is a matter of perspective. I'm not a huge fan of adventures that only stick to the main storyline, I prefer that campaigns have side quests and other things unrelated to the main adventure. Pre-published adventures by nature kind of railroad players down a specific path and all...

Discovery is obviously contentious, but I am going to have to disagree with season 3 (the last one I watched) being a restatement of the Trek ethos. It may have been building up to that (I can't say for sure since I was done at the end of the season) but Burnham's behaviors and promotion was...

Except weren't they a secret organization in Enterprise, which predates Discovery?

Isn't that Michael Burnham's job?;) (I'm just basing that on what I hear since I only watched 3 seasons of Discovery.)

I love Star Trek and I think Michelle Yeoh is awesome. However, I have never been a fan of Section 31 (although there have been good stories built around them) and anything Discovery related leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I planned on skipping the TV show unless the reviews were amazing but...

I'm currently running a Savage Worlds East Texas University campaign. It's more Buffy-like than Cthulhu but everyone seems to be having a good time.

I hate the overreliance on acronyms and usually don't care enough to bother to look them up. I just assume the people who use ones I don't know passed out drunk and randomly hit a bunch of keys when their face hit the keyboard.

Which excludes them from creating a streaming service that houses their own content how? Amazon is not primarily a content creation company but they still have a streaming service that houses their own content. Once again, let me clarify myself. In the post that you originally quoted, when I...

I'm not disputing that Crackle has Sony owned stuff. My point is that Sony doesn't have streaming service that exclusively houses all of their content, which is the current trend. Most content creators (Disney, Paramount, Peacock, etc.) seem to have been creating their own services, usually...

I should have been more clear. I meant a streaming service that houses all of their content, like Disney+ or Paramount+. Sony licenses out their movies rather than put them up on a paid streaming service that they own. For example, Morbius is on Netflix.

Watch it!!

I ran across this article today. It's not exactly scientifically rigorous but they asked 1000 of their readers what streaming services they used and here were the results (I'm not really sure what is supposed to be in 4th place): Amazon 70.8% Netflix 61.5% Paramount+ 52.3% 48.4% Disney+ 43.5%...

Now that many of the streaming services are realizing that they just can't spend tons of cash on content to boost subscriber numbers and profit matters I think it's only a matter of time before the number of services implodes. Personally, I can't wait. Look at the CW. From what I understand, as...

I find it difficult to rate Prime against the other services because Prime isn't just streaming, you actually get a bunch of stuff with it (whether or not you use it). As long as people love quick shipping and just happen to get other services with it then the customers are more sticky. It's the...

I remember so wanting to like Dark Angel when it was first released and it just not grabbing me. Maybe I should give it a try again.

I am looking forward to it although I probably won't see it in the theatre. I don't care so much that the DCEU is done, and possibly Beetle's future in the franchise, in favor of Gunn's DCU as long as the movie is entertaining. I still would have preferred a Ted Kord as Blue Beetle movie though.

Yeah, you are right. That's why, since you are a current viewer, I am willing to take your word for it. Unfortunately, I'm just not willing to invest the time in a series that I thought had 3 really bad seasons in the hope the final two may be better.

I would have said I agree with Morrus on this, but I haven't watched Discovery since the end of season 3. If things have changed since then that's nice to hear but unfortunately if the show couldn't win me over after three seasons I'm going to have to take your word for it.
