It's weird to talk about how it's the "dirtiest" but practically the entire post is about how it flooded.

I know what you're trying to say, but I always find this kind of statement funny.
What's the alternative? Winning by NOT outscoring your opponent? :lol: :cheers:...
Badly Translated Skyrim (Highlights)

For some background:
This guy used an AI text-to-speech app as well as an app to run a lot of the text from the game through Google translate at least 30 (if not more) times.
This is the result.
Enjoy.

Honestly, this is enough.
I can understand making something that discusses fringe characters and does so in a more lighthearted, respectful way (like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead).
It just feels disrespectful to take a dead author's works...

[quote]Can Star Wars be recovered under Disney?[/quote]
Yes.
BUT.
They would need to hit the pause button (stop cranking out product every few months it feels like) and focus on a good story that gets back to the traditional hero's journey that made the originals so appealing.
