Finished this, actually a really good game once you get sorted out with a better weapon and some powerups and can progress. It's super short though (8 hrs) and probably only worth like $10. It's impressive how pretty it looks for an indy game. Like it's right up there with Elden Ring sometimes...

If you're only gonna play one, play AC4. It's pretty awesome. If you've got room for 2-3, play AC2 and its sequels. The Ezio trilogy really is a memorable experience and now there's a remaster so it won't look awful by modern standards. Brotherhood is a great game and direct sequel to AC2...

FF4 kinda had the "sealed weapons" thing in the final dungeon, bunch of optional bosses in there guarding ultimate weapons for Cecil, Edge, and Kain + Ribbons (BIS helm for Rydia and Rosa I think). I really like the sealed weapons as a concept and wish more games did that. 4x job points + the...

THANK YOU

Jesus, that is literally Bloodborne

Well this didn't happen, was like a $2000 buy-in to get the whole series, plus the time investment, plus the antiquated graphics. I actually did get ahold of AC5 and give that a shot (to work backwards) and couldn't get into the game at all, it was just so clunky. Looked nice at least. Too bad...

It's possible Mangosteen fumes mixed with something they weren't supposed to and caused a gas explosion, which was one of the many theories. TBH that sounds as plausible as anything else for how it disappeared. Normally I'd just assume the plane crashed in such a way that the debris couldn't be...

If I can interrupt you guys and your parade of gayness, there's a lot of interesting stuff on MH370 Reddit about a company that I've never heard of before today: Possibly owned by Jacob Rothschild through a front and funded by Blackstone Corp, does cutting-edge semi-conductor R&D and chip...

Alright, so Dredd was released too close after The Raid for it to have been a "remake". I thought The Raid was 2010 for some reason. Still, a 2011 release is enough time to emulate it a bit during Dredd's production. Either that or @Kaines is right that it was an idea someone had seen in...

Damn, she fine. Thirlby was quite a looker in her day too though. We should just turn this into the Olivia Thirlby Thread

Taking pictures of faraway things at night is pretty goddamn hard (especially with digital cameras), always has been. It's only with the latest phone I've gotten (2023 model) that I've been able to take actual decent night sky pictures due to the long-exposure functions, and I'm still not sure...

Couple interesting things about this MH370 orb video: 1) It was actually posted online very shortly after the plane first disappeared. Not sure if it was taken down or just had no traction, but I think it was reposted recently and that's why it's suddenly getting attention. It's an old video...

Yeah those mostly look like satellites. Though a couple at about 3:05 on the right are flying a little weirdly and are much closer to Earth than everything else. I think most of what people think are UFOs are probably satellites, but that doesn't mean there aren't UFOs as well. If anything...

This sounds like someone's pr0n search history...

Dredd 2012 is such a total remake of The Raid. Villain controls a building, locks law enforcement in, starts movie by brutally killing 3 tenants to make an example of them, tells the building on the intercom what's up, everyone clears out while her minions search every floor for the cops. Also...

Yeah I was referring more to how trans folks are regarded as retroactively always their new gender, so if Page was always a guy, then did Olivia Thirlby have lesbian sex or was it straight, as defined by the woke folx? ...ah who knows. Wait is that actually Olivia Thirlby? I had no idea she...

So was this lesbian sex, or is it retroactively straight?

I think on PS5 it's 60 FPS now or close to it. They patched the game quite a bit. Anyway I got this for $10 so I've been giving it a try this weekend. Can anyone help me make sense of this damn game? I've platinumed Demon Souls, Dark Souls 1 and 2, all three of their remakes, Elden Ring twice...

What is there to do in Texas? Collect guns.

Well there does seem to be enough hoopla about unexplained things buzzing around that it's hard for me to go "where are the aliens?" It's occurred to me a few times that any ships we deploy towards Alpha Centauri (and Voyager for that matter) are going to just get passed up by future ships with...

This looks like a Mario Vs Rabbids type strategy game, and the multiplayer aspect also tells me it isn't gonna be at all like the last two. That's kinda disappointing. Yeah, not keen on the look of this one but I'd like to be proven wrong. The two South Park RPGs from the last decade are both...

I still wish EQ2 didn't exist and they combined all those resources to just focus on one game. With a bit of an engine overhaul EQ1 could be thriving much more than it is if the resources were pooled. Expansions could be 10 zones instead of 5, etc. Very few people play EQ2 compared to EQ1 and...

Alright so go magic over tech. I'd probably prioritize speed and str first, then magic maybe if I have leftovers. Max out Speed first, got it. Daggerfall was pretty awesome when I played it ten years ago. The dated visuals didn't even matter because I was having fun being completely lost and...

If I ever raid-lead a competitive guild during launch rush I'm going to make sure everyone is on an adderall+morphine drip cocktail. Also ass-steroids

Damn for a second I thought we were getting a remaster finally. I like the game a lot but it looks so dated on PS3 that I couldn't get into it the way I wanted to. Kind of stunning that they're charging $50 for a port. Lot of people gonna be real disappointed when they turn it on and see 2008...

Yeah that speech is the best thing in the movie. Too bad his kid didn't hear it in real life. But wait, you sure it was a suicide? https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/sage-stallones-mom-begged-surgery-weeks-death/story?id=16797074 Looks like he might have just OD'd

Yep. I wish we could recapture that but it isn't gonna happen. Pantheon's launch rush should be fun though. Only way to recapture that "magic" is to find new things that are, well, new and wow us. Which is rarer as we get more jaded and so on. Elden Ring kinda accomplished that for a lot of...

Yeah I always liked Rocky 5 as a kid. As an adult I recognize that it's a big step down from the others, but it's not like it's bad. What's really crazy is how well these movies have held up. They aren't campy or dated at ALL and they could be, very easily, if they were made by less-capable...

I don't think there is any cabal or widespread conspiracy to protect botters. CS does seem to look the other way more with some botting situations, because they don't want the headache, or because those people are bringing in a lot of revenue, who knows. Did they get away with it? Damn...

Tried out Arcanum, game is really cool. Surprised at the steampunk? aesthetic and the setting. No idea WTF to do so I roamed around the crash site for a while beating up wolves. Game reminded me of how much I love airships/zeppelins. Both this and TOEE have super-good music, I've noticed. Game...

So...is this game good? How similar is it to BG1 and 2? Or is it more like a modern game (3D etc)? I'm seven pages behind on the thread and don't want to spoil anything until I get to it, which'll be a bit. I see something about fucking a bear?

Just a quick tangent. The other day I explained to someone (who is afraid to try a Souls game, or something) why Elden Ring doesn't need a difficulty slider / easy mode and would actually be diminished by one. A) It has a built-in slider of sorts with all of the tools available to the player...

Been re-watching the Rocky series and it's worth pointing out that this really is one of the greatest movie series ever made, all nine of them. Yeah, 5 is kind of weak and 6 is kind of depressing, but all in all these movies are so much better than they had any right to be. The first and sixth...
