I kind of want to make a response to a video I just watched about the scientific plausibility of Godzilla, but most of my criticisms are hedged on the notion that scientific plausibility in fiction is irrelevant much of the time, and idk if the creator would even disagree with that

Have been making progress on that years-in-the-making Dragon Age Origins review. More like years-in-the-remaking, as this is the dozenth or so time that I've started from scratch. I just don't know how best to approach a game this important to me.

Have been replaying the game a bunch, doing some experimenting, and really exploring the mechanics. It really has given me a new found appreciation for the Mage class, and honestly a new found lack of appreciation for everything else. Not t say it isn't fun, but the synergies from spells is just next-level.

That said, narratively, my two favorite Origins and characters to role-play are the Dwarf Noble and the Human Noble, both of which exclude you from being a magic user, so I have gotten a lot of time to at least demonstrate my enjoyment with the other classes

like sure, I love hard science fiction, its one of my favorite subgenres of scifi in general. I love being able to dig deep on topics explored in a given piece of media, and feel the groundeness of it. However, not everything has to be grounded in realism, nor should it.
Realism is one means of communicating meaning, and it should not be the only. But like, it could be the author of the video agrees with that notion, and any assumptions I make otherwise are just me being autistic and not understanding people again
Might just write a little piece about people's tendancy to denigrate media for its lack of realism, or inconsistent realism, but I have to consider if the content creator in question should be lumped in with those people, or if he is just exploring and assessing whether or not pieces of media belong to a particular subgenre
