    Chess

    Yeah, I am sure it will all come out. I really enjoyed Daniels stuff, as a novice non good chess player. He was a good link to the general public. I have watched the Kramnik bullying for years, like many. Either way, it was cold of Kramnik to be like @!$% you 8 minutes after his death.

    Of course Kramnik spreading rumors on it.

    House of Guinness

    10 min into this I was like "This is Peaky Blinders" not knowing it's the same creator. Not a bad show all around, but nothing that hasn't been done before. Give it a shot if you are bored.

    Black Rabbit

    My opinion of course. The story was average, villains were predictable. Bateman saves the show, he is Emmy worthy here. Worth an initial watch.

    Monster: The Ed Gein Story

    I did a report way back in the 80's for high school on Ed. (Being a horror movie wanna be fan, although I cannot remember the class I did the report on) From what I remember, it was a pretty boring case (So to speak). If I recall, he died chilling in a Mental Facility? I'll give this a watch...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    When I purchased my whatever package in 1892 it talked all about "lifetime Insurance" or something on the vehicle. (No cost on damage?) Is that still a thing? I haven't checked on this in like 6 years, and I was curious. I can always re-check back in in 2028 I guess.

    Everquest II

    Yeah, back in the day we used park an alt on "Zone 6" to camp contested mobs. Is that even a thing anymore?

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    I agree on FOH reviews. Generally, I will throw out the normal complaints and tend to find a nice middle ground that helps me decide to go or wait.

    The Bear

    I agree with the points here . The journey itself to Michelin would have been interesting to see if they focused on the staff and restaurant. I am sure they didn't have a great plan past season 2, probably not expecting the demand.

    The Bear

    Yeah, this has turned into a disappointment for sure. (And I actually enjoyed the tone and pace of last season) Very little of the restaurant business is actually in this season. Mostly gone off the rails on the drama family element, which is fine I guess. Over the last few seasons, I would...

    The Naked Gun (2025)

    Iran, Israel, Ukraine.....yet here's another bomb this year. Once again, the coolest back round jokes from the original are redone and highlighted too much here in my opinion. I wish it all the luck.

    Dept. Q

    Well done all around, I recommend for sure! Good acting, solid plot, nice slow moving Detective style series. Refreshing to see.

    Downton Abbey

    Let's @$% Go! Finish strong DA, finish strong.

    MobLand

    Good enough season for sure. The acting outshines the plotline, in my opinion. Normal "stretch your belief" issues that are with most shows, but worth a watch.

    Doctor Who

    Missing the last few seasons, but still curious if the storylines are better? Personally, I don't care about the other issues. I am just curious how the actual story is progressing, are they setting up anything big?

    The Righteous Gemstones

    Yeah, it seemed they went a season (or maybe two) past their prime. No complaints overall, had some fantastic moments.
  20. Jimbolini

    MobLand

    They are doing a good job of building the drama without any actual violence. Tom Hardy rarely does anything more than stare and quietly talk, which I think helps when he actually does something. I am interested for sure, and wonder where it will all lead.

    Daredevil: Born Again

    Personally, I am not a fan of the "Slow-mode/Speed-up" style combat scenes. But the last couple of episodes were ok, I will try next season.

    The Pitt

    I admit, I haven't watched the series yet. But the hype had me watching Doctor reaction videos on the first couple of episodes. Seems to be solid on the medical side, I learned a few things listening to the Doctors for sure. I'll get to it in full when I finish the 10 other !@#$% shows I...

    MobLand

    So far, so good for me. I did notice the cute scene in episode one where young kid in club pulls a knife, and I thought every American kid is thinking "Hold my AR-15". Different countries for sure.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Question for the smart people. I see today they are merging servers, which has always been the deal since EQ. My question is, why is this still the method? (With today's computing power, can they not create larger pop servers or is lag still an issue?) Just curious, as it always seems to...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    As someone who lost out on "Crowfall", didn't they have much more funding if I recall? The endgame was different then what was promised. Interesting to see how this turns out closer to December. I will wait and pour my cash into !@%% Royal Match on my phone.

    The Bear

    Holy shit yes she did! Excellent season, exactly what I was looking for. Everything was slowed and focus on characters backrounds. As a small restaurant owner, two silly observations. 1. Break down your !@%$ boxes!! (I have stood in a dumpster having to break them down and it is not fun) 2...

    Solid first few episodes of season 3. I won't be able to finish until tomorrow, but I have enjoyed it so far.

    The Bear

    Meh, we will see. No reason to include any women GF drama in my opinion, just focus on the journey to Michelin star. Will watch for sure though.

    Trap (2024)

    Late to the trailer party here, but if it's not old man Mr. Finkel who we see mowing the lawn for five minutes at the beginning then it will have to be... At this point, he probably would do better not attaching his name to movies if he wants twists... But, what the hell....I'll give it a...

    Crowfall

    Fair question, no regrets for the years of testing I got to be apart of early on. It was clear a couple years in that they were changing, so that sucked but in all my bad investments and gambles..I can live with it. Don't get me started on Everquest Next and Star Citizen, but I didn't go for...

    Crowfall

    I was a larger than normal Kickstarter donator when it was announced. I really liked the original idea of "Game of Thrones meets Eve Online". Early on it was fascinating to be in the "White box" tests, and Gordon and Todd were very friendly. A few of us pooled all the early KS credits and...

    Perfect, thank you!

    Doctor Who

    I haven't had time to watch and could care less about the trigger issues, my question is "So far, is there any kind of season arc?" The best stories from the last 10 years usually had a good multi storyline arc, in my opinion. Wilfred with four knocks for example.

    Everquest II

    I guess beta started yesterday for the origins server.

    Cities Skylines II

    I haven't really played since launch since I had all types of issues. (I wanted to wait) I guess a producers letter came out today? It basically says nothing has been fixed, sorry? That's how I read it anyway. Is it still that bad?
