SJW's are so busy shouting down people that don't like the new series, calling them sexists and racists and transphobes and whatever the latest virtue-signalling crap is, that they failed to notice just how awful it is. And I'm not talking about the Doctor's sex. I'm talking about the writing, the production, the directing, the preaching, the complete disregard for the cannon. The whole thing is a travesty and should be erased from the franchise forever. (A bit like the last POTUS, whose name escapes me.)

Indeed lots of stuff has suffered that fate because of em

And most aren't mad at that.. most ar made that in the series run when they had the old Doctors be a thing in this new one they was sexist to the female doctor for reasons in the older series they would have never been .. Just so they could have the new Doctor bash them for it.. thats a problem .. Bud no one is sexist for hating this Doctor for being female and in a sense the actor in question involved in this game scenario for bad things she has said recently .. I' admit there will of course be outliners would be mad just for its a woman.. but its the context of the lack of Quality and what the actor herself has said recently .. which most would be mad if the roles was flipped too

"Picking up where the iconic episode “Blink” left off, the Weeping Angels are back to unleash terror once again…"

If this picks up where the episode "Blink" left off, shouldn't David Tennant be in this?

The post I was obviously responding to was calling for a boycott based on the person playing the Doctor in the game. I don't know how much more clear things could have been. If YOUR actual argument is the show writing, then we have no real disagreement. I think Whittaker is good and is being given bad material.

If thats true then you'd not put the strawman of people deflecting critism as and I quote''They're being annoying sexists and are angry the current Doctor is a lady, who is voicing the Doctor in this.'' As thats literal deflection and strawmaning statement style of things .. because most are actually against the actor for what she recentish had been blabbing for about 2 years now .. while alot of people aren't a fan of the doctor she plays for how the females doctor writing is and how the past doctors are being put down to lift her up.. Which most can't accept such ..thus that use of the phrasing I quoted of yours would not be clear what ya meant so it could have been way way more clearer rather then using a well known buzzphrase at this point to try silencing critics.. As thats what the phrasing used has come to be known for

Looks too much like a mobile game.

Pass.

I have to disagree. There's nothing wrong with her as an actor. I have enjoyed other performances of hers (Did you see Venus?). But she is miscast. The Doctor is supposed to exude wisdom and irritability born of great age and experience. So I prefer older actors in the roll.

Joanna Lumley or Celia Imrie or Ronni Ancona or Miriam Margolyes or Emily Watson or Rebecca Front or Lesley Manville or Tanya Vital or Sarah Alexander or Tamsin Greig or Olivia Colman or any of dozens of other older British actors would have been much better.

Though I doubt even they could have done anything with the turds that pass for scripts these days.

this is almost why i bought it; i find people are too harsh on games meant for phones as they can still be worthy of decent, clever content

im up and down on doctor who as a show, but i read this game is more standalone so why not, right. the price is cheap enough

So you only like Hartnell, Pertwee and Capaldi then?

Dude. It's your money and your choice. If you do get it, let us know what you think. It's a hard pass from me though.
And Troughton and Baker. Yes, those are my favourites. But I have enjoyed the others to varying degrees. Note. I did say 'prefer'.

You realise other than the 3 i mentioned near all were about 40 (minus pond spawn age Matt) when becoming the Doctor - same as Jodie Whittaker. So your entire statement of "So I prefer older actors in the roll." is either false or misguided.

TBF i did think McCoy was about 60 when he took the job (back in the day).

Seems I fell into your little trap. Perhaps what I mean is older acting. More gravitas. I'm sure you understand my point really. Maybe they were just better actors.

Nah. She's just terrible. I'd have taken the mysterious pre-doctor lady over the one we got. And the writing in these last few seasons has been atrocious.
