    Think they reduced some respawn timers on things too to help with some of the problems with the way progression works, allowing bosses to be hit again every 30 minutes or something. Given the option right now, I'd go Icarus if you want to sink dozens of hours into something and occasionally...

    Helldivers II

    I'd compare it to playing Left 4 Dead solo. Can still be a ton of fun, but add 3 friends and it's a whole new experience and you can take on so much more. It's not great for pugs right now with the matchmaking having issues (and thats putting it nicely). It's perfectly playable solo, but you...

    Yeah, if you have a friend in game, you can join them from your friends list and skip right over the login queue.

    Helldivers II

    Yeah, tonight's the longest I've ever waited, probably pull the plug on it and do something else. Need to setup an Enshrouded server among other things for a LAN next weekend anyways, guess I'll stop putting that off.

    Wow, went AFK after an almost 30 minute fun solo game, and the post-match stats actually do come up at some point.

    I spent 60 of my 85 samples on my first ship upgrade last night, and spent all but 10 of my badges. Did 1 more mission before I logged for the night Logged in this morning to 77 samples, 44 badges and another level.

    Wonder if my settings were hosed, I dont remember the demo looking nearly this nice. Felt like I had bloom at 5000. Then again, maybe some graphics settings weren't available in the demo build. A lot of amazing shit in this. Feel like combat will be hit/miss for some. Doesn't look/feel as...

    I'm so bad, after talking to a friend about computer upgrades I mentioned all I could really do would be to go to 128gb of RAM with my 5950x / 4090 and not much more could be done on this board / architecture. That got me looking into what I had, and what I could actually upgrade to (getting...

    Helldivers II

    I've enjoyed it plenty just putzing around on easy in pugs, game is fun and enjoyable at that difficulty while also allowing you to push things with the higher difficulties as you get settled in / want more of a challenge.

    I really like Soulmask, but it feels like it'd take a Conan Exiles-level commitment to really enjoy it. One I'll be following going forward for sure.

    Suicide Squad... the next "Arkham" game

    Unfortunately not. I'm sure it'll click for some, but it felt floaty and didn't care for the gunplay or traversal. The volume and length of cutscenes and the amount of up front tutorial content makes for a poorly paced onboarding experience too IMO. Enjoyed the dozen or so hours Gotham...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Act 3 sure is a chore. It's like every building in the city was given to a team and they spent 2+ months building it out into a dungeon or event. I haven't finished the game yet, have a duo and a 4-player run that are both around 80 hours each at this point and getting toward the end of Act 3...

    Use the build tool to terraform the earth away. I did it mostly by placing a foundation and then removing it, leaves a void where it was placed.

    Awesome. I've yet to build above ground so far, should probably progress the story/etc a bit more. Edit: wrong video, this one is from some tweaks today I was showing a friend.

    Looks like they have some early access bugs to work out, but hoping this ends up being really great. Time will tell. Something I've found on accident that has helped me out a lot... you can place something like a foundation in the ground and them remove it to excavate the ground. Given the...

    For All Mankind

    Keep in mind w/ the Margo stuff, the head of Roscosmos was also in trouble at home as well, so there's political stuff going on in Russia too. Revoking her diplomatic immunity perhaps cleans up some of that mess they're dealing with (and maybe we never hear from the current head of Roscosmos...

    For All Mankind

    Finale spoilers. I guess I'm mostly OK with it, but the ending was as weak as the balance of the season was. Unlike the first 2 seasons, this was a very forgettable 10 episodes. If it gets a season 5 which comes close to redeeming itself it might even be worth skipping this decade.

    For All Mankind

    I thought they did the spy reveal pretty well last episode. Guys who have been on the fringes and never really hinted at instead of converting a known central cast member into 'surprise, im also CIA!' Kind of with you here, in fact I suggested it back in October: I feel like, this can't...
