  1. I don't really have a lot of faith in PGI, the developers. They've been making MWO this whole time, and MWO is... lackluster in various ways. On the plus side, the art has always been beautiful, so even if it sucks, it'll be a great looking mess. I still remember the time they tried to crowdfund "Transverse," a blatant Star Citizen ripoff, with a $1 million goal and a $2 million stretch goal which would let spaceships fight each other (!).

    Also from the director of Cooked is Jiro Dream's of Sushi. Jiro is the best sushi chef in the world and the only one (or the first one) with a Michelin 3 star rating.

    That's the impression you'd get from watching the movie, but Jiro was not even the only sushi chef with a Michelin 3 star rating in the movie. Hachiro Mizutani, the former disciple of Jiro, was interviewed in the movie as the owner of his own sushi restaurant, which itself had three stars. (It later went down to two and then closed about a month ago.) There are lots of other 3 star sushi places. The documentary, perhaps understandably for dramatic purposes, tries to make Jiro seem really special, but it's worth thinking about whether that's the fact of the matter or whether the documentary makers just realized that things would be more interesting if they made Jiro out to be more impressive than everyone else to a degree that might not really be supported by the facts.
