That’s the right approach, for sure. My wife and I watched it, me having played the game, and her having tangentially seen me playing bits and pieces but basically knowing nothing about the plot. It was interesting comparing her reactions with mine, but I think I got more out of the show being able to compare to my memory of the game.
It’s how i always try to approach movies when they’re based on a game (sometimes books too). Still, i can’t say it did me a lot of good with how mixed bags some adaptations are (looking at you OG Mario movie and Uncharted)
Could someone just make, like, Raunchy Mastercard and just process payments from everyone including all the porn and weird shit that the other mainstream companies don’t want? It seems like the payment processors being puritanical dipshits is a weakness that could be exploited by an enterprising competitor.
But then again, we’re talking about a natural monopoly that has been in place for decades at this point. I wouldn’t expect them to exactly play fair.
