After finally tricking Netflix into sending me a proper disc, I’m nearly done with Last Exile. Disc 6 is brutal. They are starting to kill off characters at an alarming rate. Maestro Delphine is a very good villain. Almost too good. I hate her so bad that my enjoyment of this series is now directly linked to how badly she dies at the end.
Maestro Delphine: Not a nice person.
I’ve enjoyed this series so far, but all of that will be undone if she doesn’t die screaming.
Maestro Delphine: So very evil..
While waiting for her (hopefully brutal) death, I can continue to enjoy the incredible visuals. Integrating CGI with drawn visuals has always been clumsy, but this series has done a remarkable job of blending the two together.
Time for some screengrabs!
Control
A wild game filled with wild ideas that features fun puzzles and mind-blowing environments. It has a great atmosphere, and one REALLY annoying flaw with its gameplay.
Revisiting a Dead Engine
I wanted to take the file format of a late 90s shooter and read it in modern-day Unity. This is the result.
PC Hardware is Toast
This is why shopping for graphics cards is so stupid and miserable.
The Opportunity Crunch
No, brutal, soul-sucking, marriage-destroying crunch mode in game development isn't a privilege or an opportunity. It's idiocy.
What Does a Robot Want?
No, self-aware robots aren't going to turn on us, Skynet-style. Not unless we designed them to.
Man, I almost beat you! Having spent the last three days holed up watching Last Exile (and not loving it), I expect to have my own up sometime today or tomorrow.
She dies of an overdose in a cheap motel in Jersey City.
Sorry for spoiling it for you.
Last Exile was an awesome series. I just finished watching it myself! I hope you enjoyed it! And yes, Maestro Delphine is a really good villian, but I hate her as well. I thought her death was cool.
Last Exile was cool…
But they stole one of their characters from Witch Hunter Robin (we had watched the two at almost the same time…. so the comparison was obvious).
Amon worked better in the original show — why did we need an emo captain??
Maestro Delphine is very carismatic and fascinating for me, i love her asd
