    First EverQuest, 3 screenshots

    I don't think we'll be getting any more good MMOs for the foreseeable future. Not until some massive technological leap is made.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I also recommend Babylon 5 if you're craving good scifi.

    Raised by Wolves

    Also reminded me of Prometheus -- snake comes out with nothing significant to feed on but somehow manages to grow 1000x in size.

    Certainly I'm not the only one who noticed that female kid looks like a Romulan?

    If you haven't already, definitely do Goemm's Lab jumping puzzle in Metrica Province. It's not particularly difficult, but is very cool.

    The Orville

    I second this. Fun show. Great characters. Awesome finale!

    Raised by Wolves

    By the way, that ark wouldve been vaporized. There's no way you'd have intact wreckage lying around. But yeah this has become just weird and boring.

    Guild Wars 2

    I looked that one up -- Troll's Revenge? Too bad you can cheese it now with the Springer mount. But I guess prohibiting mount use for this one wasn't practical. But I'm sure people who got the achievement legitimately were pissed off knowing this.

    Binding dodge+jump to a mouse button is also super helpful for jumping puzzles.

    Got my third Tequatl's hoard last night. The luck I've had in this game has been astounding. Too bad I can't sell it.

    I recall having a bit of that months ago, but nothing recent. Weird. What is your home world? I'm on Yak's Bend -- which is quite full.

    Guild Wars 2

    What do you guys mean by 'lag'? Network latency or framerate? The game definitely gets choppy with 10 thousand players on screen, but I rarely have network lag.

    Raised by Wolves

    Yeah maybe so. I was under the assumption that most hyper religious societies often shun technology and science.

    Raised by Wolves

    I'm not really sure why people love having an entire season dumped all at once. It makes it impossible to have any "watercooler" talk -- can't talk about individual episodes, theorize about things, etc. It removes a good chunk of the fun of watching a new season of a series.

    Raised by Wolves

    Isn't it strange that the hyper-religious group is apparently WAY more technologically advanced than the grimy atheists? Hell, if Muslims were launching generation ships to Trappist-1 I'd say sign me up to Islam right freakin' now.

    The Third Day

    OMG what's with HBO and black people?

    Guild Wars 2

    I felt the exact same way. But, like I said in an earlier post, I believe the expansions' elite specializations are better designed and have way more fun and interesting gameplay.

    Holy shit, I just had a Tooth of Frostfang drop from some rando mob in Auric Basin.

    Guild Wars 2

    I've only ever ran like 2-3 fractals, which was a PUG of course. It was fun, definitely...but is there anything worthwhile from those other than the 'experience'? I have already crafted me a full set of ascended gear.

    Guild Wars 2

    You get hero points just from leveling. I'm guessing you won't max every skill line with just those, but could do a HP train at 80 in the expansion content and be good to go in a couple hours or less.

    Best Voip option for a small business?

    I guess I'll post this here, but my question is for residential not business. Some background: my elderly parents are paying $45 a month for a landline. For the past couple of months they've had this constant background noise and it's been HELL to contact Verizon to fix this shit. Finally got...

    Do they actually have any popular characters anymore?

    Overwatch

    I'm new to Overwatch, been playing with a couple friends for the past few months. Lots of fun, but one major aggravation I'm having is how NO ONE COMMUNICATES. There's hardly ever any team coordination because no one talks. Does no one use voice chat or am I somehow missing an option...

    Also, don't be dumb like me and "sell instantly" to the TP -- you can lose a lot of cash that way. Look at the current buy and sell orders and price your stuff accordingly.

    Raised by Wolves

    I thought the first episode was fantastic. Special effect didn't bother me...everything looked pretty good I thought. I also thought the science of it made sense for the most part.

    Guild Wars 2

    What about dwarves? I'm not into the lore so maybe they're not a possibility, but from a technical perspective they could probably use the same armor and weapon models as the Asura. And would add another shorty race.

    Guild Wars 2

    I love solo'ing multiple hydras with my engineer. My particular builds gives me near perma-stability so I can't be knocked down, pushed, or pulled.

    Or you can grow a pair and solo that shit.

    When I came back I had a level 70 guardian with half of his hero points unspent. :rolleyes:

    Yeah this is a must. And I think it's on sale right now?

    The game has always been pretty smooth for me except when there are a bajillion players in an event.

    Guild Wars 2

    I don't think GW2 gets the love it deserves here. I feel this game is perfect for those that are tired of the WoW model.

    Bill & Ted Face the Music

    Yeah, I thought this was pretty good. Better than Bogus Journey, which I never really cared for. My only complaint were the daughters The actresses did a pretty good job of channeling Bill and Ted, but just came off weird with them being female. Lastly, they say Keanu Reeves doesn't age...

    Computer Issues

    Yeah this is what I ultimately ended up doing -- performing a factory reset. This feels like the same problem with Windows where you're %temp% folder and C:\Windows\Temp folders can grow over time when applications don't properly clean up after themselves. Unfortunately, being Apple, there's...
