    The D&D thread

    In other news -- some friends of mine are at PAX Unplugged and gave D&D Onslaught a whirl and said it was actually pretty fun.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I get the general impression that we are the 'BBEG' in this. My only reason for saying 'nah' is that the primalists are a little on the bloodthirsty side, but then again we're wandering around slaughtering 10ks of thousands of people at a moments notice so maybe its not that different. From...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023)

    Jesus Christ. Bring, like, a whole box of tissues to this one. I have a strong feeling I'll be bawling by the end.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Im glad they kept the 'adventure and gain cool temp powers' aspect of Torghast in places like the Cobolt Assembly. That was part of Shadowlands I truly enjoyed and now they've made it a much more open world / social area.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I know yer not throwing shade at the greatest female antagonist of the 1990s! I will say, however, that all the new voice talent they added for this expansion seems to be knawing the scenery to the Nth degree. On a whim I decided to look at the 'talent build and rotations' for my spec and they...

    Fan Vote Open! - 50 YEARS OF DUNGEONS & DRAGONS! Finalists are...interesting. Several much better entries did not make it to the finals. Anywho people get to vote for the next couple weeks and the winner is announced after.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They instanced the crap outta the campaign and that, honestly, is for the best. You do get to see a person here and there but most of the content is built assuming yer a solo player and in that sense having other people around is just fucking annoying as you compete for resources. Finished...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    You can and should build on the lore. The original was a little too reliant on Warcraft 3 for the entire plotline. *edit* "lets go back to using a boat to get to the expansion area... what could possibly go wrong with that single point of failure?"

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think it's telling that I literally didn't even think to do LFR for the remaining raids in Shadowlands.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Finally finished levelling up the Void Elf Spriest and got the Mechagnome unlock. Chromie-time is crazy fast for leveling. I think I did 50-60 (maybe even 49-60) in Vashj'ir and didn't even finish the zone. Evokers seem fun, at least the DPS spec does. Never tried the healing spec but from...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Okay logged on for the first time in a couple years. Did they do something horrible to heal targeting? Using my Mistweaver I used to target a bad guy and would cast soothing mist or whatever on whoever that badguy was targeting. If I wanted to heal myself I could clear the target and then it...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Quite disappointed in the reports that much of this is just copy-pasta from Vermintide 2. I was hoping the Psyker would be legitimately different than the Bright Wizard, but it doesn't seem to be?

    You would be correct.

    The Star Wars universe in general is not nearly as computer-centric as our own, seemingly because of lack of need. They had more-or-less the same functional level of development for thousands of years. They could travel from planet to planet, they had mechanical servants to do menial tasks...

    Disney gonna show the first two episodes on ABC on the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving and then again on other Disney-owned networks and HULU. Apparently trying to get people to watch as the ratings for this are in the absolute crapper. If we want to see quality stuff like this in the...

    Was actually surprised when this arrived today. I hadn't been following the Kickstarter updates that closely of late. Has some interesting looking new game mechanics including one involving alchemy that involves experimentation via a advent-calendar-ish "open a window to discover what you...

    Andor

    Andor was championed by the Kathleen Kennedy partisan faction within Disney yes? This would seem to cement her position which had seemed tenuous after the pop culture success of the Mandalorian.

    My God. That soliloquy by Luthen at the end. Holy shit. People will be using that for dramatic auditions for years. Mon Mothma as she literally shakes in a combination of anger and fear.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    So we're less than a month from this travesty. Is the core plotline still "oh hai, so we are back from the dead....let's go on a tropical adventure to some islands for the fuck of it?"

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    The 3D for the original was spectacular. I mean it was impressive enough that it spawned a whole decade of post-converted 3D premium releases. I will want to see this in the theater because of this showmanship, but I nevertheless assume this will bomb badly.

    The whole bit with the Dizonites was an interesting bit of world building back story. That the Imperials simply committed genocide against a sentient species rather than change or modify their plans for a refueling depot is fairly chilling. This is just 14 years after the end of the Clone...

    Andor

    He says "they made a mistake" so I took it that they typically put them back into a different facility entirely or in a separate wing or something like that. I suppose they could scramble their memories or something like that, but its clear that they knew it was a big nono hence why they...

    Everything about the prison... my god. Andy Serkis is hammering it out of the park as Kino. I was thinking "with only 12 episodes It amazing that they are spending all these episodes on this Prison..." and then I realized that we only just got to the prison during Episode 8 last week. I...

    Tales of the Jedi

    The Sith Lord was a very nice episode. Also good that they got Liam Neeson and Ian McDiarmid to do the voices. The guy they had doing Palpatine for most of the animated stuff was pretty decent but nothing quite compares to the smoothly malevolent intonations of the OG.

    That prison is a dystopian mindfuck of epic proportions. The whole business with the sentencing doubling and their eagerness to hear how outraged everyone on the outside would be only to be crushed when Cassian said he'd never heard of it. No wonder that guy committed suicide.

    The Chibnall era is going to be talked about for a long long time. Of all the things he did I'm most pleased with the Fugitive Doctor and sincerely do hope that we get a couple of specials or something down the road with Jo Martin really having a chance to show us all she's got. I'm also...

    Overwatch 2

    I guess I never noticed the lack of a skin earning mechanic in OW2. I realize that this game is just not for me as I'm not a PVP team shooter kinda person even though I find the overall setting and aesthetic rather compelling. I mostly just hop on and play through a bot match to get a taste of...
