It was the mangosteens. He just could not handle the mangosteens.

I'm not sure what fucking planet you grew up on but apparently you forgot about the existence of Gobots , Transformers, mask, and oh yeah GI fucking Joe, and a million others that all came around the same time. And that's just the shit they made for boys. There were literally just as many...

This was never going to be Citizen Kane. This was basically Big Trouble in Little China with Johnny Cage in the Jack Burton role. I enjoyed it for what it was, but it's not a rewatch caliber movie. Cage and Kano buddy cop shit was the highlight of the movie and I was happy to see them gank...

Avernus was supposed to be an entire explorable region of the game with additional quests involving Raphael and Mizora. The VA was actually completed on it, but it got cut from development. As for the "someone has to be a Mindflayer" thing, eh You can always Have Orpheus or Karlach take one...

Agree totally and most of the characters do get decent ending options, particularly if you play them as origin characters. The final patch added some depth to the evil endings that was not there, as well. Gale, Laezel, and Dark Urge in particular all had multiple well fleshed out endings...

The last patch somewhat corrected this, but yeah like many RPGs they started running out of time and money so a lot of things got left unfinished. Its pretty clear that large chunks of story got cut short to meet the release deadline. Karlach and the Gondian shit all have huge gaps in their...

Tempest with Sorcerer combo can be really exceptional, but it takes some time to get rolling, basically coming together when you can cast Call Lightning. Strangely, I found that a Lightning based Moon Druid (with a single level of Storm Sorcery) to be better in terms of versatility, even though...

Sorry, you are correct. That was Control.

You took your shot and now you know. It sucks now, but wondering what if would have been worse and at some point you will move on. Concur with others who said the "work" is an excuse to not commit. If a guy is truly serious about a woman they absolutely will make the time. The dude is not an...

Polligamy is their jam, with a pseudo Christian cultish spin to it instead of being just Islam.

So Mormanism and Scientology and every other newer rebranded faith system... I find that plausible, actually.

Mechanicus 2 is a lot of fun. Its not groundbreaking or game of the year material, but its a fun tactics game for the price, with two very different factions to play. As tactical rpgs go, it has a very tight gameplay loop but you can bang out missions in 15-20 minutes at a time once you...

The entire cloud scam is basically You will own nothing and by happy, but for IT departments. Its a big fucking dependency scam that will forever prevent upstarts from rising up in the future of the industry. AI is just the next logical step down that path. An illusion of choice where the...

What Gavin said. For some context, Zoraster based belief systems were the fundemental building blocks that would eventually form the basis for many aspects of western religions, as well. But like just about everything else in that part of the world, it got mostly stamped out or sidelined by...

Was not perfect, but no woke bullshit (the comments about Harlem fit the period and was not pounded on) and the show just felt good and fun. Nice to see Andrew Robinson getting work still. But the show lives and dies on Nick Cage.
