    Tenet (2020)

    I think what she says is "Don't try to understand it." Basically the writers telling you, yeah, it doesn't make sense and we're too lazy to do anything about it, let's move on.

    Tenet (2020)

    We all know time travel is fiction, and requires a certain suspension of disbelief. But this movie goes beyond that and just ignores science to support the premise. Go watch the explanation scene again. They don't really explain anything. He fires the gun and catches the bullet, no problem. But...

    Tenet (2020)

    Nothing explains how moving through the past would give you the ability to break the law of cause and effect. Any action you take would cause an effect in the forward future, not your backwards future. You shouldn't be able to interact with anything not inverted without breaking the laws of...

    Tenet (2020)

    The car has a past. In order for that to work, the car's past would have to already be your future. Let's try something simpler. Opening the car door. You are inverted, it is not. You open the door, (or try to) and if you succeed the door is now closed again for you, because you've moved to the...

    Tenet (2020)

    You are moving backwards through time, the car is moving forward through time. Did I need to specify this? Any action you take interacting with the car (if you can even interact with it at all) will have an effect on the car's future, which is your past. If you managed to start the car, not only...

    Tenet (2020)

    I never said it wasn't realistic. I said it doesn't make sense, based on the movies own rules. And your answer is wrong. Care to try again?

    Tenet (2020)

    It might have been good if they had worked harder to make the tech actually make sense. There's some really basic shit that if you think about it for 5 seconds, you realize it wouldn't work. Simple question: If you're moving backwards through time, how do you start a car?

    The Lazarus Project

    Spoiler free review: Watched the first season. The premise is kind of interesting, if you can make yourself believe that WW3 or a global pandemic happens every few years. The agency's tactic of throwing shit at a wall, and hoping something sticks that knocks down a domino isn't really written...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Until I got to the world "flew" near the end of the last sentence, I thought you were referring to whores.

    Wheel of Time

    Here's some more shit to laugh or cry about. From the trailer: Yes, that's Nynaeve with a fucking sword. There's some speculation that they are giving her Mat's scene with Galad and Gawyn. Sadly, that would not surprise me.

    New Lord of the Rings MMO

    I don't remember the exact details, but I read some article or post back in the day where Turbine explained that the reason the only pvp in the game was where you had to use a goblin/orc/warg character was because the Tolkien estate refused to allow the playable races to pvp against each other...

    New movies that dont deserve their own thread.

    Not really a remake so much as an asian version, just like we make western versions of foreign films. The original holds up fine, so a remake would be a waste of time (not that that ever stops them).

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    I played that, too. Was a very different and interesting take, and I always wished they had made a sequel. I figure in T&L auto-combat will just be a way to afk grind a bit, like fishing in BDO. Still looking forward to this game, but being an NCSoft game AND being published by AGS I'm expecting...

    Yep, companions can be annoying. As always, I don't remember if these options are in F1, but in F2 you can right click on a companion who's blocking a door and there's an open hand icon to shove them out of the way, plus there's a combat setting that's basically "try not to shoot me, asshole."

    Rajaah's CRPG Blog

    To use items you put them in one of your active slots (where your weapons go) then click on it, and then click on what you want to use it on. Not sure if it's an option in F1, but in F2 there's a walk/run toggle in the options menu. The extra hp from Endurance doesn't really scale well. Luck...

    John Wick: Chapter 4 (2022)

    Yeah, I get very emotional whenever I think about the fact that in JW1 they murdered the only man on the planet who owned a sniper rifle. :( :D

    Yeah, no real point in starting over. Mainly wanted to let you know for Fallout 2 (which I am currently replaying thanks to you.) Also, while Fallout 1 is awesome, Fallout 2 is streets ahead.

    The downside is negligible, -10% to your skills, which are already low at the start, and like -5% sp per level. The fact that the negs are % based lessens their impact. And you get to distribute the extra stat points wherever you want. Gifted is so strong many people consider it a cheat.

    Gifted, man, gifted. Also I don't think Endurance does much.

    The Power

    Conversely what the fuck is stopping anyone from picking up a gun and shooting these cunts. Or shit, if it's 1v1 just knock them out with one punch.

    Looks interesting, like a better Archeage. Supposed to release this year.

    At first glance it does, but if you look closer it looks more like Dark Souls combat.

    Lost Ark Online

    Pretty sure it's not a server issue, it's EAC. Which, considering the state of the economy, does exactly jack and shit.

    Lost Ark Online

    Of course they did. Because the only way to maintain their level of retardation was to go back on their word. "We're having an emergency maintenance to remove those Pheons! Nope, you get the maintenance and get to keep your Pheons! Psyche! We're taking the Pheons! LOL!"

    Lost Ark Online

    At least AGS is consistent in their utter idiocy. Lots of rage on the forums today: "We just had a 6 hour maintenance to remove stuff that they’ve given us. They decided to not remove the stuff and let people keep it. But the players who didn’t log in to claim those mails still left with...

    Lost Ark Online

    LOL. I've tried that. Also reinstalled completely last night, both LA and EAC. There's a small chance it could be my wifi, and I can fix it by getting a cat5 splitter (but, like I said, no issues on RU). But, other than that, I have no idea. I guess it could be some conflict, I know EAC hates...
  31. Raes

    Lost Ark Online

    Yeah, I've read them. Couldn't find anything concrete. It's most likely EAC, since I have zero issues on RU. But, I have to get it fixed if I want to raid with you guys. Even getting carried I died several times due to it, and it waste rezzes.

    Lost Ark Online

    Friendly reminder: I need some more carries for my Sorc, my Gunslinger and in a few weeks, my Reaper (prolly gonna use the pass on my Machinist). Bloodgod and Kythik ran me through a couple the other day, which was awesome. Main problem I'm having is huge lag spikes, like sometimes multiple...

    Lost Ark Online

    This is what happens when you severely increase the demand for something that has a static supply. All those bullshit changes that AGS made. Having costumes and Aura's for sale for BC, and making pet buffs tied to Aura, instead of their usual seperate BC cost of like 120 per month. Also why...
  34. Raes

    Lost Ark Online

    The BC prices go up when RMT gold is cheap because the gold has less value. It's basic economics. :)
  35. Raes

    Lost Ark Online

    They won't. That price is controlled by the players. As long as buyers continue to pay the stupidly high price it will stay that way. We got extra screwed by AGS letting the economy get fucked by bots and RMT so early.
  36. Raes

    Lost Ark Online

    The first issue is that it's just fucking stupid. Only AGS's version does this shit. But, other than that, I prefer raiding on alts to be an option, I don't like having to do it for gear. And it's just, ya know, another turd on the shit pile of how they've handled the NA version.

    Let me know whenever they decide to revert the retardation of not allowing any higher tier gear to be tradeable.

    Return to Moria

    I know you like to troll, so I'll just assume that's what you're doing. It doesn't require a master of anything. It's plainly explained in the scene in the book, as Caliane posted above. I mean, dude, it's really basic shit, which is why I find it so surprising that idiots are trying to argue...

    Return to Moria

    Wrong. The correct translation, which Gandalf realizes is what I stated above, and the word to open the door is LITERALLY written on the door. If he had simply spoken the inscription out loud in Elvish, the door would have opened.

    Return to Moria

    Wow. You guys really don't know this? It's "Say 'friend' and enter. Which is how they open it, by saying "Mellon" the Elvish word for friend. On 13 January 3019 the Fellowship of the Ring entered Moria through the Doors,[5] but initially Gandalf could not find out the password to open them...
