I did some googling, but I didn’t find much info other than everyone seemed to have different standards back then (this would’ve been the 1960s/1970s).

It also works as a soft control for balance, since those disappearing enemies can’t be farmed to over-level.

That does seem to be the direction the games have been going, and I think it must be an audience patience thing.

Demon Souls is a good example of the level being the main challenge, with the boss at the end as more of a bonus (Flamelurker being an exception). Later games, even Elden Ring, are way more boss focused.

I guess I like both, although now that you mention it, we’ve had a lot of dance move bosses lately, and it would be cool to see a new game go back to the genre’s roots.

Apparently she requested his crew to make this documentary, and he even lived with her and her husband for a while to do it. Absolutely insane.

I was also wondering if there was a hidden joke there.

Pooh knows that there’s honey in that cube

You get dancing penguins either way.

There must be something about this that I don’t understand, because it seems impossible that this benefits anyone.

I’m no military strategist, but it’s really baffling as an outside observer. Like, is their goal to get rid of all the young men? How is taking part of Ukraine more valuable than that?
