  • This game had a lot of promise, but the hype could never be lived up to and on top of that they chose to use it as an experiment with the procgen stuff.

    I think they have some good bones to work with going forward, seeing as it was Fallout 4 in Space, but they need a team to flesh out and then write a mountain of lore to go with it in the future. Elder Scrolls and Fallout tend to have excellent game lore that comes with their IP, something Bethesda at least in part inherited from the original creators of those games. Not realizing a lot of that is what makes their games special really hurt Starfield.

    Other things that I didn’t like was they were too busy saying can we do this, instead of should, when it comes to the procgen systems. It was too ambitious for their first time out especially when their other games have well fleshed out worlds, yes I know Skyrim caves were similarish, but they weren’t the exact same thing every single time. Then to top it off, barely anything came from the Unity, they basically wanted you to play this game 10 times in a row to get all the achievements, which I did, but it ruined my want to play it again for a long time. Then you have the space aspect, sounded super cool, then it wasn’t, go to location, load screen, enter ship, load screen, go to space, load screen, map, find world you want, load screen, maybe have a battle, open map, choose planet, choose landing location, load screen… it was very repetitive and not always in a fun way.

    In future games I think it would be way better if they focused on a core group of systems, IMO 5-6 would be best, if they want to actually keep most planets empty, which they claim was on purpose, then pump it up to about 10. Set a cool story in that area, then in Starfield 3, do another 5-6 new ones but only keep 2-3 from the game before. IMO, that would give them more longevity in the series and allow them time to build that lore and flesh out some stories. Think Elder Scrolls and how most games focus on a different region of the Tamriel.

    Obviously this is just like my opinion, but man Starfield has a good idea with an overly ambitious and ultimately poor execution.


  • Ever since the crowd started doing the X and Unh sound when Oba comes out it’s reminded me of Moose coming out… so tonight was something cool to see even if only half the crowd knew to do arm pump and shout Moose.

    Edit: Why the fuck do Grace and Ethan Page and a few others get to keep their names and poor Ricky gets the name change? Ricky Saints sounds so wrong.











  • PWInsider says it’s him and Christy Hemme, as well as President Cicione.

    PWInsider.com is told that Anthony Cicione, President of the company, has exited that position. There is no word yet who will replace him in that role. Cicione entered the role in February 2024. At the time, he was also the President of TNA parent company Anthem’s Entertainment Group.

    We are also told that a new Executive has been brought on to oversee production and other facets of the company. We are working to confirm further details.

    As part of that change, both Josh Mathews and Christy Hemme have departed TNA effective this AM. Hemme was in charge of the company’s social media while Mathews was a Senior Producer and the Senior Director of Digital Media.

    PWInsider.com is working to learn more details of this breaking news. We have also reached out to TNA for comment.

    Stay tuned.






  • It’s because he has an idea of what he wants to be and will only accept that thing. WWE wouldn’t let him be that character and he had to change things up on the indies, then as soon as he got to AEW he got the character he wanted and quit evolving at all, I kind of liked him when he returned because it was against the never ending Tribal Chief stuff, then it was just the same character as he had in AEW, nothing about him changed except the ring he’s in, same music, same outfit, same stupid tattoo, nothing ever changes with him.

    I agree with GeekFTW, he’s there to try and wash the stink of Hogan and I never thought about but he is kind of a hybrid of Hogan and Cena. Patriotic, loves the kids, and is a total company man.


  • My opinion, they sit it out, along with most other companies that appear to have bent over backwards to appease the new regime’s anti-DEI efforts as they rush to protect their dollars over treating people with respect and dignity.

    Not to be too political, but I’m not sure what kind of Country this will be by the time we get to Summer Pride month, let alone when we get to Black Pride in September or Atlanta Pride in the middle of October. We are only on day 19… and look at the craziness.
