    Dune (2020)

    Funny story. A looong time ago, in my late teens to early twenties, when I lived in the French Quarter, I was friends with this group of Tarot readers who worked in Jackson Square. One day, a couple of us went to hang out at one of their boyfriend's house. She introduced me..."This is Robert...

    Lost Ark Online

    What I find hilarious is that RU launched with only 3 servers and on top of that only one was consistently high pop, and another, the un-official english server was high occasionally. Which it probably wouldn't be except for the RU publishers not caring if you use VPN, plus the player made...

    Lost Ark Online

    I tried it. In RU and KR. It's terrible. Love the graphics/animations and combat. The rest is shit. And all the cool instance stuff? Yeah, after that castle siege at 30 they're ain't no more shit like that. it's just a very average, typical asian grinder, in a pretty arpg-looking package.

    SWTOR

    Apparently, it's not simple enough. I keep running into idiot noobs in veteran FPs who don't even know about their class health regen ability. I suppose this is a result of all companions being able to heal now, since before that some classes didn't get a healer companion til like level 20. No...

    Lost in Space

    And using new email addresses to get the free trial repeatedly is any different? LOL

    The Mandalorian

    That's what I meant. The shooting and missing repeatedly at a stationary piece of junk like 5 feet away was kinda like the coin flipping. And the one guy is all confused and smacking his blaster and shit like "Why the fuck can't I hit that?" Because stormtroopers are written to be terrible shots.

    The Mandalorian

    Insert that'sthejoke.gif. That whole scene was pure comedy and seemed to me to be a big fuck you to Rian Johnson, like "this is how you do comedy in star wars, asshole!" Also had a bit of a Rosencrantz and Guildenstern vibe.

    The Mandalorian

    What Mando said was "I didn't think I'd see this again." Because when he thought he was going to die he gave it to Cara to show the Mandalorians.

    The Witcher

    Ciri annoys me. Besides all her scenes being boring (imo) she looks like a fucking alien. Why do you take this: And make it look like this: Paint the girls fucking eyebrows, idiots. And lose the goddamn contacts. Wtf?

    His Dark Materials

    I assume they were using "firehurlers"? They were mentioned a couple times, and a bear or two seemed to be carrying some tube shaped thing on their backs.

    The Witcher

    Yeah, it was pretty accurate when Fringorilla opened that portal for the archers to shoot through. Also when Ballsack and Geralt ported directly into the Cintran castle.

    The Expanse

    Might want to re-watch that scene. They specifically state that they no longer have the capacity to experience empathy due to a medical procedure performed on their brains with magnets. I don't remember the exact techno-babble, but that's the basic explanation.

    He wasn't shooting womp rats with a blaster from his speeder. He was flying a T16. https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/T-16_skyhopper/Legends "Even so, these airspeeders were often used as training vehicles by the Rebel Alliance,[7] due to the fact that their flight controls were similar to...

    Mainly: Increased credit cap Long gone are the days where you could buy a gallon of Bantha milk for five credits. Initially when we developed our Free-to-Play and Preferred models, a cap of 200,000 credits and 350,000 respectively seemed like a fair amount. Over the years, it’s become a simple...

    Lost Ark Online

    In order for a game to be p2w there has to be something to win. Only open world pvp is on like 1 island? And arena has some bolster mechanic. All gear upgrades are gated by acrasium. It's basically a co-op arpg with very boring, static loot. If you're doing a dungeon and one of your group...

    Lost Ark Online

    Yeah, the voice subtitle translations are pretty dubious. I do love that the Devil Hunter's "fire both pistols in all directions" skill is actually called Equilibrium. For anyone who, like me, finds the Russian voices grating, you can rename (switch around) the Korean and Russian voice folders...

    Archeage

    Fishing is actually better money than it was before the changes. You still get about the same average gold per fish, plus you don't waste hours and hours trying to find marlin spots. What did make fishing much better early on was the fact that labor pots and chum were dirt cheap.

    Archeage

    Even if you escaped you still couldn't interact with anything or use skills until your sentence was over, including summoning your mount or ship. And one of the prisons is on an island.

    JRPGs

    Same. With the exception that I found the digging for crafting mats way too grindy, and the kid who voiced the main character was annoying as fuck. I played on PC so the battle loading times were instant and the turbo mode made the combat much more bearable. Always wished they had made some...

    The Division 2

    Yeah. We're too dumb to make the AI any smarter, so we give them cheats like super-aim and Flash-runspeed. Here's a raid with a bunch of stupid gimmicky hoops to jump through, and oh yeah, you only get to bring 2 armorkits instead of the usual 6. Have fun!

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    So, I was wondering. Dany has no heirs and is barren. But, she considered the dragons her children, soooo, if she takes the throne and then Jon kills her and then takes the black, does that make Drogon the new rightful ruler of the Seven Kingdoms?

    The Division 2

    Their thought process just makes zero sense. "Our raid is super difficult, it requires communication, preparation and roles (roles, hahaha)." But, hey, if you are lucky enough to have 8 people available in your clan/friends list, when they enter the raid they will become super soldiers, no...

    The Division 2

    If this is really their intention, then this decision should go on the Wiki page for "last nail in the coffin" as the best example. What a bunch of fucking idiots. Edit: So, from the SOTG, it's official. No matchmaking for raid. If anyone from the PC clan wants to try to get 8 of us together to...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Well, the petition calls for her to "step down" not be fired/replaced. 32 people isn't much of a following, lol. It's just clickbait, just like the youtube video linked. It's always been stupid that blonde white rich actress is trying to champion the lesser peoples. But not with her own money, lol.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Lame attempt at clickbait. Cuz movies are cast by petition now, right? Besides, didn't she sign a seven picture deal? (or was that a rumor? I can't keep track) If so, even if she wanted to, she couldnt.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Episode had some cool moments, but the slow start, which I guess was to build tension, was just rather boring (and too damn dark). I get they were going for some kinda horror movie vibe, but it just felt like they padded the runtime a lot. Not nearly enough named deaths. Arya's kill was fine, I...

    The Division 2

    I always felt that the only thing that needed to be toned down was how aggressive the mobs were on higher difficulties. Their health was fine, maybe take down the damage a tiny bit, but if you're not in cover, you should die, period. At launch it felt more like the cover shooter it's supposed to...

    The Division 2

    More PTS stuff. The long loading/connecting issue is fixed, seems even faster than before they broke it. That needs to be hotfixed like now. Just did a CP level 4. Overnerfed. It was easier than current level 3s. I never got close to dying or felt any danger at all, total cakewalk. Edit: Also...

    The Division 2

    PTS updated. UF finally got a nerf, 2% dmg for 25k armor now. Berserk only requires 6 reds, Patience only 6 blues. Safeguard un-nerfed but still requires 4 reds or less. There's a free crafting material cache on the vendor. Full list on reddit. There's also a stat screen that you can see after...
