There will be a 120 Boost available (in the cash shop, of course) in 8.2 or 8.2.5. Mark my words.

If you played D&D/AD&D, there were a few modules that had 'tech' in them. Expedition to the Barrier Peaks being the biggest of those that come to mind... it included powered armor, blaster rifles, and robots. It is considered one of the founding modules as well. The Forgotten Realms had...

Raise your Administration score, but no. If you expand at any sort of rate beyond 'snail', you will have sprawl ramping up quickly. You have to be smart about balancing resources/research/unity buildings to counter it.

Jaina was not... horrible, I guess? Ghuun was aids. Constant aids. On every difficulty.

BfA questing was not horrible, Season 2 Mythic+ was loads of fun, and the first two raids were enjoyable (save for the final bosses). 8.2 should be out on the 25th, but it is just more WQs, new collection items, and a single dungeon/BG.

The problem is that they are terrified of alienating casual or returning players. It is why they have so few evergreen content options and why nearly everything is reset with each expansion.

I loathe the concept of 'squishes', be it item level, damage, and particularly character level. I hate how they 'nerf' our damage down to more 'reasonable' numbers every few expansions (even if they try to do it across the board, so NPCs are as weakened as we are). If there is a level squish...

NEWS! Pre-Order for M20 is up. $49.99 = 50 Packs, 1 x and the 'foil' skin for it.

Aboleths do not hate the illithids and have worked with them when their goals align, however, they do not trust or like them very much - Aboleths have no racial memory of the illithids and given that the racial memory goes back to the birth of the Gods, then it is a big deal for them. I meant...

It absolutely could be a Nautiloid or even a Dreadnaught, as there are still a few of them kicking around, just they can no longer be made. The illithids once controlled entire planes, but the Gith rose up and hunted them to near extinction, which is one of the reasons they ended up on the Prime...

It is all part of the same series 'The Second Apocalypse'. First three books are a series: 'The Prince of Nothing' The Darkness That Comes Before The Warrior-Prophet The Thousandfold Thought The next four books are a series, 'The Aspect Emperor' detailing what happens after the first trilogy...

And yeah... that Mythic Chandra is insane. Particularly it's +2 and Cannot be Countered. Wow.

Guess we will be getting 15-18 Planeswalkers in M20, then? U/R/M for each of the colors.

I Am Mother was tolerable-to-good. Would rate it a B- to a B. Skip the trailer, it gives away too much. Basic story is: A robot is in a bunker with lots of human embryos for some reason. It decides to grow one of them into a person.

Last I heard, the next movie is already steaming through production, but this is not doing anywhere near what they thought it would. Estimates put it around $275m-300m when advertising is factored in and it is just breaking $200m box office this weekend.

^There are MANY stories like it, but it is the most 'western' one I have encountered. Most are not in English, however. Very popular novel type in China/Korea for boys/young men.

No doubt. Trust me, when I was younger, I was full into everything here. I had the X-Files 'I want to believe' poster, followed every magazine/newsletter about the paranormal, etc. Was certain that in my lifetime, disclosure would happen. Now I am older and jaded, so I do not trust anyone. So...

He did not start talking about the alien stuff until he was out of the public office and in his 80s... so take it all with a grain of salt.

Absolutely. I guess they want to 'slow' things down again? Ghuunies were a pain, particularly in a few specific groups where you could not CC reliably. Ghosts are actually lots of fun and you can plan around them. But season 3 being so random is... ugh.

^It is all, 100% about the DM. Before my current 'main' group, I tried five other groups. 1) Seemed like a good group, did three sessions (three hours each) and the DM ghosted us. 2) Was clearly a group of three friends looking for a DM and a +1. One guy refused to use Push to Talk, so we always...

Chapter 2 of the Stained Glass event is ending in around 14 Hours. Chapter 3 begins in 11 hours. It is... SINGLETON! And will be using the new 'London' mulligan system as an experiment. 3 Wins = The Wanderer 9 Wins = Samut, the Tyrant Smasher 15 Wins = Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord

Oh man. Ravenloft was an entire campaign setting, the Demiplane of Dread. All gothic horror, all super terrible. Had specific rules as well... Madness Checks (Things that can permanently alter your character), Terror Checks (Penalties for witnessing horrific things), rules about being Corrupted...

The realms is just a bit of everything. It is also a 'hub' world that most of the others touch on or connect to from various points. It was my second setting (My first was Ravenloft - talk about being tossed into the deep end) and the one I fell in love with.

(Double Post)

The 'Realms' are still in a sort of daze. Most of the old favorites are gone/dead/depowered, due to the time skip. They have dialed some of this back, by bringing most of the Drizzt crew back via magical shenanigan, but many of the loose threads are never going to be resolved (Magical rite that...

Spellplague and the time-skip were the big event to change 3.0/3.5 over to 4.0. Basically, Cyric/Shar decided to assassinate Mystra (Seriously, she dies constantly and it is never good) so they could take over as the Gods of Magic. It caused all magic to collapse/go fucky. Shar tried to recreate...

They worked on OS2. --- Reminds me a great deal of the Abolethic Sovereignty event in 4th edition, the only good thing to have come out of it. Crazy people worship eldritch beings, provide a way for giant fish-squid monsters to rise up, take over a large part of Faerun. Would make more...

Easily the weakest 'season' they have put out so far.

"I fucked a polar bear and I still couldn't get you out of my mind."

Steam Summer sale should be the last week or so of the month. Maybe some discount then. I am still salty about buying the game at full price, then the cost being cut in half a month or two later.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. CGI was a little weak at some points, but Tennant can chew the scenery like few others.

Popular Conspiracy points towards all of this disclosure being a new version of Project Blue Beam.
