    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I have no idea how many of each are possible, but over a playthrough I had 2 bros approach me for possible dick smashing. I rapidly requested that they keep it in their pants and that was the end of it. Unless I missed an entire section involving a sweaty Top Gun volleyball encampment, that shit...

    Grand Theft Auto VI

    And it's been annoying for years. Rockstar is especially egregious. GTA 5 console release: September, 2013. PC release: April, 2015. Of course, the games are typically awesome enough to enjoy for two playthroughs, but now that I'm old and have kids, fuck a bunch of double-dipping.

    Grand Theft Auto VI

    Not if you want it to look anywhere near as good as the trailer. For that you'll need a high-end computer, and probably yet another year or more for it to release on PC. Ugh. Anyway, if this trailer had released 5 years ago (with graphics appropriately scaled back to that time), we'd be on page...

    The Simpsons

    Oof. The show had been coasting off the fumes of its prior brilliance for a while by that point, and I was still half-heartedly hanging in there out of some combination of habit and loyalty, but I explicitly remember watching that episode when it premiered and saying "Whelp, that's it. I'm...

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    It was all but over when Marsh walked and loaded the bases with two outs, and Thomson let Rojas take the plate. That'll go down as one of the all-time dipshit post-season calls. Wild how the Philly offense jumped on the plane out of Arizona with 18 innings at home in their pocket, and instead...

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    And not even from birth. He converted.

    Ahsoka

    It's just a variation of an overused TV trope that's long outlived its entertainment value. Nowadays when I see it, it immediately reminds me of GoT when the dead army attacked Winterfell. They showed shot after shot of this terrifying, impossibly energized meat grinder of an army that would...

    Ahsoka

    I tried giving Rebels a chance after the first few episodes of this and while the show itself is actually not too bad and seems watchable from a story / character perspective, I just can't hang in there with the animation piece. I have way too much shit to do and motivating myself to push aside...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    At 4K and cranked settings I'd recommend biting the bullet and going for the 4090. To make it less painful, you could save a few bucks on the CPU by getting a 13700K. The 13900K offers basically dick all benefits for gaming. I had the 4080 for a short bit and while it's a beast of a card, I...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I rolled up a new game on the PC despite having virtually zero desire to kick my many hours of Series X progress into the garbage, but fuck it. I didn't lay out a mortgage payment for this stupid 4090 for nothing. After a short run through the introductory stuff, regrets are rapidly fading. The...

    Ahsoka

    I took it as a test for Pullo and his blonde meth-head apprentice. If they returned with Ezra and Sabine's heads, Thrawn will be in a position to trust them and incorporate them into his "dwindling" ranks. If they fail, oh well - they can kill each other or stay stranded there until they rot. Of...

    Ahsoka

    Blew off work for a bit and watched it. Loved the Chimaera introduction along with the creepy semi-decrepit stormtrooper crew. I think Thrawn's uniform was more over-starched and not so much attempting to cover up a gut. It looks like they're maintaining Thrawn as heavily strategic and a...

    Ahsoka

    I haven't seen the episode but Lars Mikkelsen usually looks emaciated. Did they give him a gut intentionally?

    Cyberpunk 2077

    This is probably a dumb question that the answer to is no, but...I recently rejoined the PC master race and it'd be great if I could jump back into the game from my PC without having to A) rebuy it for the PC (I originally purchased it for the Series X) and B) start over. Is there any way to...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Pretty much. CP is built around FPS mechanics and GTA is built around driving mechanics (neither are at the top of the pile in either category). Once you open up the map in GTA, you can go practically anywhere and unleash mayhem to your black heart's content. CP is much more...
