    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Yeah, if I had a bunch of old ACs... well, I'd try to play them first, but then I'd put 'em on Ebay and roll in some easy dough. The only one I was able to get for a non-insulting price was AC1, thanks to the PS3 Playstation Store. Ayo hold up, I can't sell any of the default equipment? Got a...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    These games are dark and apocalyptic in tone and they really beat you over the head with it. Lot of cold colors and metals. I'm sure it gets a lot prettier, that Asmongold video seems to have some areas with fire and lava or something. Boy, I'd love to find any Armored Core games for $15 in a...

    Also no Goldberg I guess. Maybe the rumors were just trolling us. He was Khan's #2 most wanted prospective signee in 2019 behind...you guessed it, one CM Punk, and this is the first time he's been a free agent, so who knows what's gonna happen!

    This is the "100% accurate" version I got from someone who was nearby: -Jack's been angry about the "he wanted to use glass" story going around (story is true, but it makes him look pretty bad) and told people Punk leaked it. Which is a hilarious inversion of last year. -Punk had the match...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Haven't had a chance to do much with this yet, but in the old games energy guns were huge. In AC1 upgrading the generator was the big game-changer.

    JRPGs

    Anyone knowledgeable on the Shin Megami Tensei main series? Doubt I'll ever play that series but I am wondering which one is worth a play if I were to just play one. Liked the Persona games a lot and from what I've read SMT is basically a harder version of Persona that focuses more on dungeon...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Yeah, once you land on a customization that works for you, things come together quick. I wouldn't look up a build to use though because half the fun is trying different things and figuring out what works. They skipped the PS4 gen AFAIK so I wouldn't be surprised if AC6 was intended to be a...

    That makes it even more unfortunate that he wasted a movie on Terminator: Dark Fart.

    Dune: Part Two (2023)

    So it was supposed to be a 7-part series? 7 parts really is the sweet spot for books and TV seasons, not sure why. Edit: Jesus, are all of those Brian Herbert books real? Not sure if meme. Real shame FH didn't get to do the conclusion, sounds like one of the biggest missed opportunities in...

    Snow White (2024)

    Watched "Frida" (2000 or so) the other day. Good movie if you can find it anywhere, Salma Hayek is in her prime. Also the story is interesting, given that it's based on real events. However it brought something to the forefront that I never paid attention to until the last few years: How...

    I liked her when she was young and sexy. Good Judoka, liked video games, liked Dragonball Z. Then somewhere along the line she just became really, really unlikeable and I'm not sure when. In a very similar way to Brie Larson. I don't know exactly what it is that causes this dramatic unlikability...

    Dune: Part Two (2023)

    Yeah I'd love to get these (at a reasonable price). I've never read any of the sequels and it might be the one major book series left that I have on a God-Tier pedestal and haven't gotten to the rest of yet. As far as the sequels go, is it generally agreed-upon that books 2-4 are the required...

    Snow White (2024)

    I really do have to question pretty much everything about history now and the 1920's parallels are too thick to ignore. Does this mean all of the "Trump is a nazi" people are actually going to be accidentally retroactively onto something circa 2033 when his successor actually goes hard in the...

    Snow White (2024)

    /sigh Don't know why I'm bothering but here we go. 8x in a row happened when I was like 17, Madchen Amick wasn't a porn star, and hell if I could get anywhere near that now as an old-ass man. You're right. I did lose quite a bit, after I gained quite a bit, for a net loss of...very little...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    40% of boys being diagnosed with ADHD absolutely leaped out to me as gynocentric, even when I was 9 years old (because I was one of those boys). It was always bullshit and a way to justify prescribing a bunch of creativity-dulling meds that ensured none of those boys grew up to be any kind of...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Monk is OP in 1 too. 1, 3, 5, and Tactics. They loved Monk as much as the EQ devs. Strago is FF6's Blue Mage, while Gau is sort of like Blue Magic combined with Berserker. He's really his own thing though, never really duplicated in any other game in the series that I know of. I've never gotten...

    Sadly not hugely surprising, Bray and Keith Lee have both been dealing with some unspecified-but-severe ailment on and off for a couple of years now. Keith seems to be getting through whatever it is, looks like Bray didn't. Not sure if it's the same ailment in both cases or if it has anyting to...

    EXPEND4BLES (2023)

    Really good to see Uwais (from The Raid) in this. Schwarznegger isn't in these anymore? I haven't seen any since the first one. Is this the first time there were chix in The Expendables? (on the team) Looks good. Feels a little less star-studded than the others (probably because most of those...

    Wait, are you just like, a total retard? Me saying that I didn't see Rocky and a fair amount of other great movies isn't me saying I was sheltered, which is the point Tuco was making, that it's a dumb argument to say someone's sheltered just because they haven't seen the 200 great movies from...

    Black Myth Wukong

    This looks good. The gameplay reminds me of Wo Long, maybe Nioh? That sort of "fast Souls" type of gameplay. It being UE5 and next-gen only is also very welcome at this point. From the name and the staff, I'm guessing this is based on the Monkey King Legend (probably most known for being what...

    Lords of the Fallen

    The game seems pretty unbalanced so I'm not surprised there are a bunch of OP spells. Got the Faith-scaling scythe by defeating Worshipper after he took out his own adds. Probably good on weapons for the rest of the game since this weapon is totally overpowered as well for a Faith build, which...

    Asheron's Call

    I 'member Asheron's Call. Never got to play it, but I did read up on it, download maps, look at a lot of screenshots, etc. When I was trying to get into EQ in 1999 and 2000, it wasn't really working out too well. Barely had any computer time, didn't really know what I was doing when I did get on...

    The Astronomy Thread

    I really hope the idiotic fucktards that comprise American mainstream media aren't celebrating the Russian space failure. A swing and a miss in space, for any nation, is a miss for all of us when it comes down to it.

    I had a lot of other shit to do besides watch movies. I never saw any of the Karate Kids either (until a few years ago), despite doing a ton of martial arts as a kid and being literally the target audience. Did make time for TMNT1 and 2 though. Incidentally Terminator 2 was the first movie I...

    Snow White (2024)

    Snow White is now a successful lawyer working at a law firm and is the best lawyer ever: Prince Charming, on the other hand, is a stupid idiot legal intern who can't do anything right. Also, he's gay. To avoid ableism, Dopey's name is changed to Cognitively Divergent-y: And he's gay.

    That's a terrific metaphor. These people wear the skin suits of things that are actually popular, created by people with actual talent, and use those skin suits as trojan horses for their nation-weakening ideological bullshit. Was Weimar this bad?

    Same, holy shit. And all I said was that she had nice legs. Well, fuck her legs! Except I didn't grow up with Rocky in the 80's. I saw it for the first time in like 2002, after I turned 18, then saw it for the second time like 3 weeks ago. Also it sure sounded like you were taking a roundabout...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Went ahead and got the first one. It looks a little antiquated and has some "PS3-like" jankyness, probably due to being a first year PS4 game. The art direction is great though and the light effects / particle effects are actually super impressive for 2014. I blasted through it with Warrior and...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    So basically they can keep covering up whatever Lockheed / Raytheon / Freescale Semiconductors are working on, until such a time when they need UFOs to scare people, then they can "announce it to the world". Or just not, climate change is enough to scare people. I expect UFOs to be "a thing"...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I've been historically very bad at retaining friends / staying in touch / spending time with people, as a full-on loner. I make friends pretty easily, I just don't cultivate the friendships, or it takes a huge concerted effort for me to cultivate them / even just stay in touch. So all my grade...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah you never actually need to stop and level in FF6. The parts I pointed out are good places to gain a few extra levels if one's so inclined though. The toughest parts of the game are few and far-between, but I'd say a few notably strong areas/bosses are: -Kefka in Narshe -Zozo in general...

    Sort of all over the place now, not really focusing on any one thing.

Mostly just killing time cause I don't want to get super into...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    There's an early level-up trick in FF6 as well, but don't do it. Can gimp the challenge of the first half of the game and gimp your characters in the second half since they'll be missing esper bonuses. I'd also leave the exp/money bonuses off for this one because it's super well-balanced as it...
