There’s a famous defence Norm Macdonald once gave after his movie Dirty Work flopped in cinemas: “How could it have failed? It made a million dollars!” It’s a joke that underlines the absurdity of what we judge to be success, and the vast amounts of money that are spent on creating the various media products the biggest companies churn out for our consumption. I’m reminded of that as reports emerge that since its launch in late August,Star Wars Outlawshas only sold one million copies....

Back before theAssassin’s Creedseries became the open-world action RPG we know it as, it was more stealth focussed and even had a parallel storyline set in the modern day. Remember Desmond? Last seen in Assassin’s Creed 3, Desmond was the modern-day protagonist whose memories we were playing as.

Summary Character development is what anime narratives thrive on.Long-running showsare most interesting when a weak character gets stronger, a loner character begins to let people in, or when a villain sees the error of their ways. This is especially true of characters in the midst of redemption: their self-reflection, eagerness to prove their newfound goodness, and changing dynamics with other characters keep the anime from getting stale. There’s nothing quite like a redemption arc to make a once-hated character loveable....
