    Joker (2019)

    Agreed, but that is not really recent (2007!). I admit to thinking of Daniel Day-Lewis and Gary Oldman as comparable amazing character actors as I typed that. Edit - And, let's face it, Ledger's Joker was pretty impressive as well, albeit in a less "dramatic" role if you catch my meaning.

    Joker (2019)

    Thread Necro. It is out on Canadian Netflix so I just watched this for the first time. Best movie I have seen in the last 2 years. A feel-good ride it ain't, and I was low level anxious the entire time from the background string soundtrack, the acting, and the awkward situations, but that is...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    I despise D3. I mean, it looks okay and plays ok but it is boring and trite and formulaic to a fault. It has no SOUL.

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Couple of issues with the Remaster: (1) Dungeons are too fucking dark. Even at the highest brightness they are oppressively dark. On the original, the higher brightness settings made it more bearable, not in the remaster. (2) Dungeon textures are too reflective and shiny under higher lighting...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    It's still a slog. Your perspective is askew. I don't think PoE is a slog, but ask people new to the game. For both games, expansions have made it a massive slog. In Grim Dawn I made it to the end of regular difficulty, through one expansion and part of way through another and ran out of...

    Path of Exile

    THIS is the state of the Path of Exile in 2021? Don't disturb the delicate genius of the founder? Or get dogpiled by NOT disturbing the delicate genius? Jesus, I hate the state of us as a goddamn society. Just calmly and logically ask poignant questions that are pertinent and of interest to...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Maybe it is part of the experience, like the shitty low locked resolution. I always felt like D2 ran a little janky no matter how good the machine, apparently that was a feature not a bug.

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Dammit, I did NOT know that. Reason to play closed beta now waning. Edit - Every time I start playing D2 I forget about the bottleneck that is Duriel. GD it. Yeah, esp early game as you and everyone said. I am just going to get gut rot from drinking all those blue potions instead. You...

    Yes, it is coming back to me now.

    Path of Exile

    Sometimes I would like to know if I died because of a million cuts or some big hit. Was it a bad luck cascade of crits, was it a shock followed by a big crit? Was it just me being stupid and missing my anti-freeze after opening a chest? It would be easier to min/max your defenses if you had...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Yup, It's Diablo II all right. Just spent 15 mins buzzing around the first zone and the opening cave. Looks sharp. Nothing special because they did not increase the resolution. Is that in homage to the original and you can switch back and forth between old and new graphics? Who wanted that...

    Path of Exile

    Socializing is my favorite argument. Cut and paste message. Join team. Port to hideout. Wait for trade window. Inspect item. Trade. Whisper "Thanks!". Leave group. Port home. So socialization, much wow. To the point, I used to hate trading, but nowadays I just raise a couple of...

    Path of Exile

    For whatever reason, about 10-15% of the time I use a move skill I get rubber banding. That Bodyswap build would be unplayable for me, I would have no idea where I am most of the time. I play Texas servers from Canada, and it is not that great.
