    Europa Universalis IV

    New DLC is out today for this. Been watching a few reviews, and it seems like a good one so far and the reviews have been positive on Steam. The DLC focuses on Northern/Eastern Europe mostly; I watched a streamer play Teutonic Order and turn them into a Crusader horde nation - with the goal to...

    2022 NFL Offseason Thread: Looking forward Tua better future!

    So NFL filed an appeal regarding the Watson punishment. One reporter is saying they're looking to suspend him a year and fine him $10M. For the Browns, they knew that he was going to be suspended, for maybe a year or more (they structured Watson's 1st year to be a 1M salary). They traded away...

    Tanking for the top QB instead of the #2/3 guy off the board doesn't make sense to me. In the last 10 years of drafts, there's been more bust QBs that have been the first QB off the board than not. Bucs tanked in 14 which lead them to Jameis, and that didn't work out for them at all

    For All Mankind

    Interesting way for them to show this timeline's version of "Don't Ask/Don't Tell." One thing I wished they leaned on more - yeah Ed came in second, but if he hadn't aborted they would have crashed and lost that lander, which was their only one. So Ed's action saved not only Danny's life, but...

    The Boys

    His reaction feels normal for what I would expect out of someone who is from the WW2 era and put into present day - social issues and the world has changed a ton in 50+ years. SB's portrayal feels more realistic compared to how Captain America went through this same 'man out of time' theme And...

    The Boys

    I agree - I wish they had shown more of *why* Soldier Boy is a piece of shit. Only thing we really get as an audience is that he fucked up Black Noir (and who cares if a piece of shit beats the fuck out of another piece of shit?) or that he says/acts the way I would think a guy who lived during...

    I like this guy's review and definitely agree with this point: its weird that they haven't shown half of Dany's crew. You'd think this is an opportunity where we'd see some of Ed's old crewmates from S2. Also where's Molly -- I'd have expected her to be working at Helios with Ed

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    I think when I look at this show I see disappointment in what could have been. And mostly this is because it feels like the caretakers of this IP just don't have the same level of love or attention to detail (this also could be budgetary maybe?) to telling a good story in this IP. Maybe this is...

    That episode was great. Also, what a potentially horrifying way to die - being crushed by the invisible centrifugal force of the station at 3x stronger than normal gravity.

    2022 NFL Offseason Thread: Looking forward Tua better future!

    That amazing Mahomes parallel throw that bounced off the receiver's hands also went through Devin White's hands. That play would be a lot less hyped if Devin got the INT and that wasn't the only instance in that game of a would-be drop also being an almost-pick. But for whatever reason, people...

    You can buy it from a few different stores, however it still uses U-play to load. All Ubisoft games do sadly

    Anno 1800

    Each has its value I think. With the Passage you get the arctic session, and while the overall power increase of your empire is small from it, the challenge of setting up those icebergs is fun. Plus it looks pretty. Sunken Treasures gives you Crown Falls, which is your best sandbox island in...

    Tua has to perform this year for the Dolphins to decide on his 5th year option right? Whats the floor for them not to 5th year him? Having a losing season?

    One thing I respect about Joe Buck is how he's gotten better over the years. I was watching an old 02 clip that Buck was commentating and he sounded like a robot. I can see why people disliked him; his early stuff was pretty bad.

    They were getting dudes off the street to play WR because of injuries for that game. Brady can make something out of no-name WRs (as we've seen before), but he seems like he needs some practice/reps with the dudes before he can play well with them. That plus the OL was a sieve (because of backup...

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Just goes to show you how hard it is to make a dynasty in the NFL. We may be lucky to see one every decade or so - but we'll never see anything like Brady/Pats again I don't think. Anyway, we're going to be dog-shit this year, but the NFC South is winnable still for the Bucs

    Man we're back to being a shitty team! Thankfully the rest of the NFC South is also pretty crappy so we might be a 9-8 division winner this next year, heh.

    I mean he hasn't said shit yet. This is all "insider reporter" bullshit from Shefter/ESPN and now everyone else is running with it. I kinda hope all of this talk about him retiring makes him decide to play 1 more year out of spite for these "journalists"

    Best part is when she mentions she dated a Jawa and one of the Jawas there says something and she's like "no that's ok I'm working on me for now". Never thought I'd see a Jawa dating sim in the Star Wars IP, but here we are

    Our defense has been screwed so far. It was like 14 vs 3 mins in TOP until this drive - the defense has to be gassed. We're lucky that the score isn't 21-0 right now

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    So I wonder, will the league fine the Packers, Rodgers, or both? Will they suspend anyone over this? And if they don't, can they even enforce their protocols at all for any un-vaxed player? Or will it just be the Rodgers treatment? Man, so many layers to this onion. Feels almost like a WWE...

    This episode was way better, but it feels like the pacing is off. Maybe its because they're trying to tell 4 different stories at once right now, but each one feels a little watered down because they are all given around the same amount of screen time - so it feels like each story just inches...
