There is actually. Someone compiled them. I'll see if i can find it and pm you over.
The general rule of thumb though is if you're bored by something, move on. My first playthrough i didn't really do any sidequests at all.

Lynch has basically disavowed season 2. The post-reveal episodes might as well be non-canon, except of course for the finale.
"The pilot is the only thing I am particularly, extremely proud of. There were great moments along the way. The second season sucked."
-David Lynch
I think watching FWWM and like, 4 specific episodes of the series is a valid way to go into The Return. Also worth repeating that The Return is nothing like any of the series and is only tonally similar to FWWM at times.

To me I enjoyed both seasons but that's not what the majority thinks. Even David Lynch said the second season sucked. I'm adoring this new season though, we are definitely fuckin blessed.
Listening to the bombcast now. I wonder how many fucking times they can mention "what about a AAA take on Battlegrounds?" before somebody tells them about the goddamn Division thing.
So are there specific ones in the "bad streak" in season 2 that should be watched? Or once whatever reveal happens in the next couple episodes, can I truly jump to the finale and not ever go "wait, why is this person doing that?"

Agreed completely, how much you enjoy his non-Twin Peaks work will pretty much determine whether you should bother with Season 3 at all

Those bad episodes are seriously so detached from the overall story. The only thing you'll miss out on is a new villain arc, of which you'll only see the conclusion. Thing is, that only happens because Lynch was trapped and had to conclude the dumb stuff he had nothing to do with. Also Nadine, but who cares.
Seriously, the new series might as well begin with a title scroll that says ALL THAT STUPID SHIT DOESN'T MATTER.

Speaking of Frrday the 13th, this thread made me think that it's a bad quick look, but it was fucking hilarious.
Never trusting this thread again.

They'll play private matches most likely which is as far as I've tried on Xbox One, are stable.

I was on the Fuck James Train from episode one. That dude looks and acts like a human jawline.

In regards to PUBG hats or in-game costumes, I kinda want stuff that goes down the techwear/urban ninja style. The stuff I've seen look mostly like stone island stuff, but ACRONYM style shit would look pretty dope in that setting.
This is the most correct and true take that is possible.
James fucking ruins that show in Season 2. When he finally fucks off and leaves everything gets better.
Minor Season 3 Spoiler:
I wanted to DIE when he showed up in a Season 3 cameo. Thank god he hasn't come back in any important way.
I agree with the above posters though, Season 3 is NOTHING like the old Twin Peaks, which is honestly fine. It's very much a Lynchian thing now, and people should know that going in. If you like that style, this will be fun.

Yup. If you like Twin Peaks 1 & 2 but aren't familiar with his other stuff, 3 is a huge risk. Being on board with stuff like Eraserhead is mega important to season 3.
It's kind of incredible how different season 3 is and I am glad for it. If it'd been trying to be like the old show it would have been a mess. So much of the original show's weird tone came from the era.
Showtime has funded an 18 hour long film and given Lynch utter and complete creative freedom and control and it shows constantly and it is utterly glorious. Episode 8 that aired on Sunday kind of felt like a breakthrough moment in TV.
Exactly.

But how Swery65 is the new Twin peaks is what I want to know.
Not enough.
To be fair, they are.

Speaking of lynchian nightmares though i bought the silver case from the sale. I should probably play that.

Aesthetics should be locked to maps and all maps should have their own themes e.g. post apocalypse and cyber punk
Sweet, a quick look of a randomized permadeath 2d action game. Those go over well here.

james is the red train from thomas AND THAT'S IT
I just watched all of twin peaks in the last month or so.
The drop in quality in Season 2 is not as much as I was lead to believe.
There are certain character arcs that are snoozefests. But also some great, hilarious moments. And the last few episodes are entirely necessary to understand the current series.
Just skip any scenes with James or Nadine
Dead Cells has been pretty well-received here (rightfully so)

_/¯Adding onto this. You also NEED to see the Fire Walk With Me movie. There is A LOT of characters and events in that movie are being directly referenced in Season 3 either by name or as shown clips. The context will be key to enjoying the new Season.
I don't feel lost in season 3 at all?
It has been very very weird. But not...confusing in any real way.
This last episode was nuts, but I think I could easily explain what happened (I just might sound insane doing it)

Played it when it first came out in EA and liked it a lot. Tried it after release and was kind of overwhelmed by everything they added. It is a very cool game, but I'm not sure it is the same game as the one I first played. I very much recommended playing it with at least one other person if you can!

now that they are doing community mp games
they can do GB custom games on PUBG with community!! yay
I haven't watched since Episode 5 because I'm a millennial who likes to binge watch.
But what about all that shit
with coop leaving the black lodge?

As someone who don't watch a lot of lynch stuff what is it about 3 that makes it more Lynchy than Twin Peaks OG?
And if you like Twin Peaks results may vary. I'm enjoying it for what it is but also bummed it's more of a culmination of everything David Lynch than a Twin Peaks follow-up.
Normal people were able to enjoy seasons 1 and 2.
