I NEED TO SCREAM ABOUT PAUL DANO'S RIDDLER
This is probably the first time we've seen a Riddler that's been taken seriously as a character.
Through the Arkhamverse games, for those who've played it, we all know the feeling of doing his challenges and storyline. It's tedious and obnoxious. Bonus for Arkham Knight making him look like Charlie Sheen going through a midlife crisis.
Gotham, I enjoyed, but they created him to be almost an alter ego/ split personality which I don't necessarily think is how the Riddler's brain works.
And Jim Carrey's Riddler is just... Jim Carrey being family friendly I guess. Regardless, entertaining.
Paul Dano though... he whipped out the perfect amount of obsessive psychopath and narcissism. As in, his energy really matched Heath Ledger's Joker; super chaotic and dark. Probably would have worked well in TDK.
That scene where he talks to Batman in prison was absolutely fantastic. He reminded me so much of Ed Kemper in his prison interviews. Right off the mark when we first see him unmasked, the obsession with Batman is in his eyes and never leaves. He craves that attention from him in such an unhealthy way, it's just incredible to watch and know that it's purely Dano's acting.
I'm so impressed. I really hope we get to see more of this Riddler from him in the future and I hope he gets some sort of award for this. An underrated actor overall.
Sumeru made Genshin suddenly feel like a horror game. I found my first leopard AFTER hearing it, triggering a flight or fight response I didn't now I had. My first Ruin Drake encounter was also the first encounter with the withering zone.
But by far the scariest thing is the Fragment of Childhood Dreams domain. With its giant, overgrown pit full of cloudy water that I dropped into before finding out were to go. With the freaky ominous music in the background. My massive Thalassophobia is making itself very apparent.
Void Stiles: We could work in some of the ideas I've been suggesting?
Derek: Those aren't ideas as much as they are random acts of violence.
