    So are you saying the combat is good?

    Dune Awakening

    That's been the thing I notice every time I look at a stream of this. The combat looks absolutely retarded. Like, something you'd see 25+ years ago bad. Then again, whenever I watch, there's very little actual combat. Mostly just gathering shit. Everyone playing it seems super engrossed, but...

    7 Days to Die

    Seems like the game is turning more and more into a linear first person shooter zombie game, with survival elements. They continue to kill the base building portion of it.

    The more I hear about this one the less I want to play it.

    The Astronomy Thread

    I mean, watch the video? His example is a photon clock on a spaceship. The photon is really what I'm referencing as far as "spaceship." The photon can never reach the speed of light, because it requires infinite energy in order to do so. It can approach it but never hit it. And what is light if...

    The Astronomy Thread

    This whole derail makes me feel retarded. Physics was never really my thing. But watching this video, the one question I have is if all of that is true, how does anything travel at the speed of light? If we're breaking this down to how fast atoms are traveling, what difference does it make if...

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

    It's funny, because I'll read all the spoilers for these movies because I know I'll never actually watch any of these so it doesn't matter. Wife and I went and watched every Marvel movie sometime around when Infinity War and End Game came out. Of the new ones, I saw Black Widow and Shang Chi...

    Stranger Things

    I'm amazed at how long people will stick with these shows (looking at you Walking Dead). I checked out after season 2. Saw this thread got bumped and didn't even realize they were still making it. This was nostalgia bait with 80s shit. Are they even still in the 80s at this point?

    Dune Awakening

    Wow, yeah, reading that and that sounds fucking retarded. You can tell they thought they had a great idea, but thinking about it as a player it sounds bad. Really bad.

    Ashes of Creation

    Does it really matter? The only people who will ever play this game are the ones that paid $200 for it. It's not necessarily vaporware, but it's never getting released.

    Arc Raiders

    Launching on the 6th? That's pretty wild to not even announce a launch until launch day.

    Murderbot

    Agreed with too short. I feel like every time I'm like "did I quit this show?" Watch the next episode, it gets maybe kind of interesting, but not really super interesting. Next one rolls around and I'm not sure if I give a shit about the show or not. On the plus side, they're short, so I'm not...

    For some reason the posts about this one remind me of that Erenshor game from last month, whose interest seems to have completely died. This just another flash in the pan to hold you all over for a couple weeks?

    I mean, in theory if I were a vendor, I'd just have a different gold price, and it'd be exorbitant. Although, now that I'm thinking about it, how do you deal with counterfeit gold? But the whole thing is retarded.

    Markets down though. Pretty much anytime the Fed speaks now, markets go down. They don't inspire much confidence in anything I suppose.

    Investing General Discussion

    This seems to be missing an understanding of what backing a currency with gold is, versus trading in actual gold. Requiring gold and silver to be accepted as legal tender is insane, because as said, it means every single transaction needs to be able to be conducted in gold or silver now, and if...

    I mean, I get it. You're trying to make sense of it all. But when tech companies that didn't produce anything, but went public and their stocks started going to the moon based on some hypothetical earnings a decade in the future, the whole system fell apart. Earnings have absolutely nothing to...

    I've said it so many times in this thread, but PE is worthless. You'd be calling the valuations from 2012 overvalued still, and sitting there wondering why the market is up 700% and why you missed it

    Dune Awakening

    Oh, nevermind. It's $20 to play 5 days early? Fuck off. And even more retarded, one of the "features" is you get access to DLC...which releases on launch day? So you've got DLC on game launch? Man, Funcom...what the fuck happened to you?

    Lilo & Stitch (2025)

    I liked the "made her do x" part. Uh yes, that's how this works. They aren't real people, they're fictional and they do whatever the writers and directors want.

    Will they though? Like, if you had told me Mel Brooks died 5 years ago and I just missed/forgot about it, I wouldn't be shocked. Mel Brooks and Clint Eastwood are old as shit. Shit, Mel is, and Clint almost is, part of the Greatest Generation. You know, the one that comes before the Silent...

    Dune Awakening

    I really dislike public servers for survival games. I just think everything's going to turn into a shit show like Rust, where you spend all this time doing the survival shit only for some group of griefers to take/destroy it all when you're offline.

    Sure, you can argue they sucked at establishing lines of communication. But they ended up all over the place with varying degrees of success.

    Edit: Was writing this while you posted the above. I should probably just move on since you're not even done with the story. This is why I said in a previous post that the story is great because you constantly think you've got it figured out, but you don't. I'd also suggest you start collecting...

    Yeah, it's overpriced compared to the rest of Nashville. It's always been the ritzy part. It's not particularly rural either.
