    Ancient Civilizations

    Not going to watch this video, but I made a post a few weeks ago just throwing out a hypothetical similar to that. That the Garden of Eden could exist in an alternate plane, and the "knowledge of good and evil" is essentially conscious thought. They were exiled into the physical world we know...

    Crimson Desert

    I got bored way faster than most of you. 21 hours in, I think I haven't picked it back up in a week.

    Home buying thread

    My guess is they're at a point where money doesn't matter anymore and this is purely an aesthetic choice. As far as granite though, while we've had them in the last two houses, I don't really love it. I mean, it looks decent, but it's still kind of a pain in the ass to baby it. I've all but...

    Guess I missed that. Should've given her a retarded dyke mullet if they wanted me to notice a chick's hair being different. That's way too subtle for me. Know your audience, people.

    I probably should've just waited to watch once the season was over. This type of show is way too frustrating to watch week to week. Just little things like the cop who, despite finally putting on regular clothes, still wears a fucking belt with a radio on it that does nothing, or the people just...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    It's pretty funny to consider they would've been right around the corner from EA. But it's definitely not a red flag or anything that they're completely redesigning the game suddenly.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Mobs leashing seems like a massive change. Basically flying in the face of the "super punishing old school mechanics" so many of the diehards seem to want.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    It's both an age of the player phenomenon, as well as the time period the game came out. You'll never recapture 1999 era internet where everyone wasn't so connected like they are now. Several people have mentioned it over the years in this thread, but you're talking peak instant messaging era...

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    That doesn't sound like a good omen for the movie. Basically they don't think it holds up on its own, with just phase whatever the fuck Marvel bullshit behind it, so we're going to go back 7 years to the last thing that was interesting to support it. I don't think most movie fans will...

    The Pitt

    And here I figured she was acting like an asshole. Turns out that's just her personality. Her "everyone is raping little girls" and "don't trust any men" schtick is so obnoxious. Anyway, I meant to say it in my last post, but the conclusion to season 2 just felt like kind of a letdown. It was...

    Crime 101 (2026)

    Honestly, the whole character was weird. They basically made him an incel.

    The Official Drum Thread

    Yeah, made me want to just play kick/hat/snare for a week and just see what happens.

    The Pitt

    Yeah, it's got some issues, and the woke stuff keeps creeping in, but it's one of the best dramas of the last few years by a long shot.

    Top Gun: Maverick (2020)

    Well shit, it's unfortunate Tom Cruise won't be involved thi...oh wait.

    Investing General Discussion

    Right, but I don't liquidate my entire portfolio when we need cash to live off. I do like $5-10k at a time. So it's an extra couple hundred dollars. Not nothing, but over the long term also insignificant. It's why I always say, even after you retire you still need to stay in equities. If you've...
