Is anyone playing this on PC? I was super excited for it until all the reports of bugs. How is the state of the game now?

Excellent, excellent. I would have to call myself a Nolan fan, since as much as it was hard to hear and follow Tenet I still find myself wanting to watch it again. Of course it wouldn't be a Nolan film if there wasn't some time skipping around, I liked the use of black and white for the "future" parts which eventually changed to color when the main narrative caught up. I believe he did that in Memento as well.

Cillian Murphy absolutely killed it, I really enjoyed him and Matt Damon together. A lot of strong performances also from RDJ and Emily Blunt as other has mentioned. I really believed Oppie was talking shit to Einstein from the way RDJ described it, he was able to transfer his self importance onto me as well.

Overall it has me wanting to know more about the history of Oppenheimer and the whole event, which I don't know if that is the point of a biopic but hey that's cool. Of course it is not completely accurate to what happened but I wondered which parts are closer to the truth than others.

I have to agree with going in with high expectations, I came out a bit let down. It did feel not as tight as the last few films. The bike scene, it seemed like they did not show a lot of footage of it so maybe the best shots were all in the promo/behind the scenes stuff in the end.

Killing Ilsa was pretty bad, she already had so little dialog in this one and then they just have her die and barely acknowledged. I feel like it has to be a fake out again, or maybe that's wishful thinking. The rest of the script was poor so why expect something more now. I feel like her fight with Lane in the last film was much better done and Lane seemed like a much more skilled fighter. Overall Lane always seemed like more of a that and a well definite antagonist.

With Grace she had good moments butt they made her a bit too damsel in distress at times. Occasionally very competent but other times useless. Like when she goes to stop the train then Ethan just finds her sitting there like she has no other ideas of her own, guess I'll just die here.

There were great action parts and I enjoyed it overall. The car chase and climbing the train particularly for me. Hopefully they bounce back with a tighter story and dialog for the next part.

They could have saved a ton of money by just sending Bear Grylls into space. But seriously pretty incredible

That does seem like it would be nice with low activity, but with larger numbers it's makes using the feed very difficult. With the default setting I still see a lot of the same posts from the last few days so I try to switch it to get new things, then the mass loading happens.

 

As the question asks, my page has apparently finished loading and I am scrolling through, then all of a sudden posts begin to appear again at the top of the list pushing down where I am currently at. It isn't just one or two posts, sometimes it's a waterfall of posts. I guess they are loading in async.

Is there some setting I can change to stop this, do I have my filters wrong. I'm normally browsing with All, then I switch to Active or Hot, but it seems to happen with any way I have it set.
