As someone who made it all the way to the final season before dropping the show when they started pushing the Seven, Chakotay, Doctor love triangle, I can say that you didn't miss too much.

While there's the occasional good episode, I found the quality of the show to have only improved marginally over the seasons.

Having watched through DS9 first, it was clear that Voyager had the B team of writers.

Same here. Tried it once, didn't care for the pilot episode and lost interest. A couple years later, some people encouraged me to give it another try after hearing that I tend to love character dramas. I made it partway through season 2 before I stopped and realized this show just isn't for me.

The subject matter holds no interest to me, and the characters aren't likeable or compelling enough for me to get invested.

I can appreciate that Breaking Bad is a well made show, but I don't understand all the universal love it's garnered.

Season 1 is a pretty good show and is mostly faithful to the game. I would, however, recommend tempering any expectations before watching season 2.

While I wouldn't consider season 2 bad, they do ramp up the interpersonal drama and cut the game's story in half to make another season--which will focus on Abby's perspective from the 2nd game.

That's a valid point. I just remembered the pro-cop messaging feeling more overt in Rises, though it has been a while since I've seen them all.

I also have a soft spot for The Dark Knight because of Ledger's performance.

The Dark Knight Rises. Not only is it a bad Batman movie, it oddly has a pro cop message. Also, I can't take Bane seriously at all with that ridiculous voice.

As a fan of the original, I still haven't played Alan Wake 2 because I refuse to buy anything from the Epic Game store.

That being said, I also haven't played any of the farming sim games, though that's because they look incredibly boring--no offense to those who enjoy them, they're just not for me.

How dare you. FFVIII is a flawless game with a perfectly straightforward story and plot and limited grind.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a sorceress to defeat, right after I optimally junction all of my GFs.

Chicken wuss.

Wow, this title can't catch a break. Though given how little of the game the developers have shown off, this isn't too surprising honestly. I just hope this delay will be good for the game.
