What a great point. I guess one reason could be that the glasses don't reliably help with those tests.

The people making those videos have probably tried taking the tests again, but they don't upload the footage because they realize the glasses don't do shit.

I feel a little purple balled. I didn't realize it was the first video in a series and I was surprised when it abruptly ended.

I'm super colorblind and I've known these things are a scam since I first started seeing the videos of dudes crying. Sometimes people will recommend these glasses to me and I'll have to break their heart and tell them those happy videos they've seen are almost certainly staged, or at least over exaggerated.

I'd love to be able to see colors better, but I just don't think it's in the cards.

Yeah totally. Why doesn't it start with that already?

I heard you're into (non) heavy metal

Same! I liked the first one a lot, but after a while I just didn't want to play it anymore. In retrospect, I think it was the ridiculous amount of dialogue that turned me off. Each bit of progress was met with a 10 minute conversation between pretty bland characters. I imagine this one will be similar, but I'll just resolve to get through it.

A year from now, a half finished game we don't know much about will be released! Exciting stuff.

I really enjoyed it. I have the same complaints as you, especially the plot armor. The scene with the claw guys where Mizu is being crushed by the door is pretty egregious.

It's definitely the best Netflix animated thing I've seen for a long time. I hope it gets another season.

It's insane how after all this time, nothing fills that niche quite as well as ARK.

I just don't understand why the especially weird stuff like "swarm" or "elf" has to be part of their... gender?

I've seen someone reference pyrogender, the gender that feels like fire, but certainly that would fall under some other parameter besides gender, right? Maybe ethnicity or species or something, but certainly not gender lol

I guess it makes sense that this is what the Tomorrowverse has been building toward. I didn't really enjoy the last two movies very much, but this looks pretty good.

At the very least it will be something for me to rewatch regularly, like I do with all the other DC animated movies.

Such a good song. I like when the guy is fixing his hair in the reflection of the disco ball.
