Unpopular opinions! V2: I Don't like half life edition.

What really gets me about it is that, whenever I hear my friends talk about it, they always gawk at "Dude did you see how he killed that [I]one[/I] zombie? Yeah, it was fucked up!". That god-awful History Channel show [I]Vikings[/I] was the same way. Nobody ever talks about the characters (unless something fucked up happens to one of them), they just care about the violence.
It just feels like a trashy cable show, and considering back when I complained about Season 2 being awful everyone was like "just keep watching, 3 is better", and 3 [I]was[/I] better, for about 5 episodes. Now that you guys are saying "4 is better, we swear" I am getting suspicious. Maybe it just isn't my kind of show, but we shall see.
Auto makers that put chrome in the interior need to be dragged through the streets and beaten.
If only the show (The Walking Dead) was much more like the comic, it'd be a [i]lot[/i] better.

Ehh, it's very situational. Sometimes it's done well.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;46347021]The first four episodes of season 4 are set-up. They wouldn't have to exist if the previous showrunner knew what the fuck he was doing.
The rest is great. If you liked The Governor, he's got two episodes in season 4 that follow just his story, and they're awesome. Almost as awesome as the payoff after his backstory.
Even if you don't like season 4 that much, I'd still try season 5 out. If you don't like that, well...the show's not for you. I don't really know how much more you'd want.[/QUOTE]
"It gets better later" isn't a valid excuse if you have to wait an entire three seasons
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;46346749]Dude, you need to keep watching.
Season 2 and 3 seem to get a lot of shit from some people. Season 4 is pretty much the "OK, we fucked up REALLY BAD, we're gonna try to fix it" season, and it totally worked. Season 5 is 3 episodes in and they've all been amazing so far.

Mazzara was a shit showrunner, trust me. The next two seasons are much, much better.

I'm not saying The Walking Dead is the best show on TV or anything, but as popular as it is, I think it gets too much negativity.[/QUOTE]
"yeah so pretty much the entire show sucks except for the few episodes i like"
i tried watching it. watched the first two seasons. i think there were a total of about 30 seconds i liked. apparently the next couple seasons are the same as the first two.
what a terrible show.
Banished is a nice game, but it's definitely not a game I would consider to be "fun" by most definitions. Spending the first few years of setting up a village, watching villagers die during childbirth, watching them starve because they were too lazy to get something to eat, or starve because they gorged themselves on all of their food in the first season, or watch them freeze to death trying to get that extra bit of iron ore from outside of town, or to even see the stability of your village crumble because you expanded a little too early is not fun. It's a depression simulator. When things get rough, they get [i]really[/i] rough in Banished. It is nice to see your village regain stability after a rough patch, but it only makes me countdown the seasons until something worse comes, rather than looking forward to the next big harvest.
Also, I honestly think Banished needed to be a little more than an olde-timey Sim City type game. It'd be nice to come across another village on the map that you could trade with, or have the ability to form your own militia so you can protect your village from wolves or bandits. Unfortunately, when things get good, your village becomes large, and your trades are nice, that's pretty much it. It's like climbing up a short but steep hill, making sure your footing is right so you can get to the top. All you really have to look forward to is for people to die less, crops to yield more produce, and to have nice stone houses for your villagers. It's a solid 6 out of 10 at best.

Oh so it's like milk coloured water?
Never encountered it before here in the UK. Must be some kind of yank peasant tier milkshake lol
Milkshakes don't always have to contain ice cream do they? I just use chocolate milkshake granules mixed into milk with mine.

They don't have to but any milkshake worth its salt is made with ice cream.

The Walking Dead is like a roller coaster when it comes to quality.
I honestly can't say one season is the best, they all have good episodes, separated by a lot of boring episodes.
But yeah, its not as good as people pretend it is. I still find myself able to enjoy it at least.
I feel that this season of the Walking Dead seems a lot faker with the costume and media make-up.
On the 2nd episode of this season when a zombie was gnawing on that guys face. he was just not moving or anything and the zombie just looked like a skeleton toy with some strawberry juice on.

Seriously, a great mix of city-building and RTS/RPG would be really fantastic.

It's pretty average. Even with mods.
Only TES game I've enjoyed in the long run was Daggerfall.

If you put onions on anything, it's ruined.

You're thinking about putting onions on it? Fucking ruined. Terrible pizza. And fuck you if you put the onions underneath the cheese so that you can't at least warn people that the pizza is going to taste awful.

I say the same about Capsicum/Peppers, except I also get violent indigestion if I eat a little bit.

I agree with you that onion on pizzas tastes terrible (though it's fine in most other things) but this post just sounds completely absurd.
Onion rings are good.
Onion straws are god-tier.
Onions are the best vegetable, don't you be talking shit.

What the hell is an onion straw? You edited this in after I agreed with you and I've never even heard of them.

They go by a bunch a names (straws, strings, etc.). It's basically just small fried shreds of onions. They're like rings, but much thinner. They go great on burgers and sandwiches.
