Are there any creators/series you think are underrated?

In my opinion Dead Sound is extremely underrated as a creator, he has several series and tons of videos about his creative process and behind the scenes facts.

His Autodale series is probably his most well known but all of his other series are also really interesting and he’s currently working on season 2 of his Dinosauria series.

[interesting usually comedic trope] characters who the audience never see on screen

  1. Incredibles: Frozon’s Wife is never seen on screen but is part of the most memorable scene in the movie, interestingly she has a design that was going to be used but was decided against because according to Brad Bird “she’s funnier as just a voice”

  2. Victorious: Cats brother is never seen on screen and only mentioned several times on things he’s done, however we have a very good idea on what kind of character he is just from Cat’s comments about him.

What’s a random thing from the sims 2 or 3 you miss?

Basically just asking what’s something random from the Sims 2 or 3 you miss.

For me:

I miss how in TS2 you had to buy your sims a cell phone in order for them to have one, not only does it add some more realism to the game it also makes historical challenges/saves easier to set up.

As for TS3 I miss how what traits you sims had made them do a bunch of stuff differently than sims with different traits, most notably painting made by sims would look different depending on what traits they had.

[Funny Trope] Things that seem made up for the story but are actually real

  1. South Park, famously in one episode they explained the entire background to the religion with the onscreen disclaimer “This is what Scientologist actually believe”

  2. The Death of Stalin, this movie loves have it’s comedy be based on things that actually happened but I’m gonna highlight Stalin’s medical treatment being delayed because he had all the doctors arrested and sent to the Gulags, something he actually did and actually caused his medical treatment to be delayed

  3. Assassin’s Creed 2, when Caterina Sforza’s children are taken hostage and they threaten to kill her children if she doesn’t do what they say she proceeds to lift her skirt and tell them she can make more.
    This is supposedly something the real Caterina Sforza did in real life (though with the caveat that this is only recorded in one source and we don’t know how reliable that is when dealing with her)

What’s the most unrealistic feature you’d love to see in a life sim?

Basically what’s a feature you’d love to see in a life sim regardless of how unrealistic it would be to actually implement a feature like that in a life sim.

For me I would love to see a “true” open world. I don’t mean something like TS3 or Inzoi or Paralives where you get an open neighborhood but have a loading screen between different neighborhoods or can’t travel between them I mean you can take your characters anywhere in the world without experiencing one.

Anyway that’s my unrealistic feature that I’d like to see, what about you?

Found this interesting headline from a book about New York newspaper headlines

Definitely morbidly ironic in retrospect

(Note the book didn’t have any pages from 1912)

[interesting trope] That piece of media that feels out of place compared to the rest of the creator’s/studios work

  1. Legend of the Gaurdians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, this animated children’s film is interesting because it’s the only children’s media that director Zack Snyder has worked on with every other thing he’s worked on before and since being far more adult in topic/tone.

  2. Arthur Christmas, not only is this one of the few all-cgi works by Aardman Studios it also goes for a completely different art style than they’re most known for.

  3. Titan: AE, being directed by Don Bluth it’s interesting since it’s the only major Sci-Fi thing he’s worked on with all of his other work being either set in contemporary times or being fantasy.

[refreshing trope] twist/parodies of superheroes that aren’t “evil Superman”

Metroman from Megamind - what if Superman just quit?

Phenomaman from Dispatch - What if Superman was depressed after a bad breakup?(or alternatively what if Starfire was a depressed 30 year old?)
