Shadow Wolves March 2023

It’s fair for anybody to be tired and wary of new zombie content. I guess my frustration comes from the nature of this conversation:

  • we have a critically lauded new HBO show, one of the most expensive they’ve ever produced, that’s breaking viewership records.
  • it’s an adaptation of a game series that is possibly the most critically lauded games of all time.
  • Gabrus has played these games, devoting presumably 100+ hours to them. And watched the series. And wanted to talk about them.
  • Ben hasn’t watched the series or played the games, so he shuts down the conversation by saying it looks dumb and he doesn’t get why people like it.
  • Gabrus weakly agrees. Conversation ends.

I just wanted to hear what Gabrus has to say about it, and I’m sure he has a lot to say, regardless of whether Rodgers has seen it or thinks it meets his cool-quota. I’m not the first to express frustration when this dynamic comes up and it becomes the cool hipster Ben show.

I know everyone who knocks this gets downvoted but whatever. I still pay the subscription either way.
