Last set of episodes from season 1 dropped this evening. Ended well and has a nice set-up for season 2.

Given that he's already used Peacemaker and Judomaster I wonder if James Gunn will continue the trend and reinvigorate other classic Charlton comics characters outside of their Watchmen analogs. I suppose the Questions, Captain Atom, and Blue Beetle have all been fully integrated within DC...

Mana seems to be an odd resource. Playing a Paladin I've never once even noticed the blue bar move much less empty out and yet quite a few skills have mana efficiency options. When I PowerPassed a Sorcerer I did see mana matter, but only when I had the manashield thingy toggled on.

Landing = stuck Fucking brilliant and I can't wait for the insanity to continue.

Hollywood does a lot of shuffling to make sure that big tent pole movies don't collide. The games industry needs to learn proper developmental scheduling and marketing to emulate this. There were many months last year where I was dying for something new and then we get these gluts periodically.

I assumed stuff like that was 'localized' as Western Audiences have less of a tolerance for that, at least lately.

I downloaded the patch and I can't even tell that ray tracing is on.

This game kills me with the cutscenes. So damn many of the freaking things and a good fraction of them have abysmal pacing and/or include on-the-rails plot elements that make me just annoyed. "Yeah okay I can see that the guy is getting his ass kicked, I'm here to help.... Ummm... I'm...

I had fully intended to do a new playthrough leading up to the release but got distracted by other shiny things. I've had to settle with YouTube vids that record the various info you learn towards the end of the game about Zero Dawn, Sobek, etc. That the game actually had, at its core, a very...

Downton Abbey gets away with things because its a period piece. Those lavishly crafted period dramas on British Television get an immediate pass for lack of diversity on account of authenticity. The first time a black man is seen in Downton Abbey itself is quite a shock to many of the characters.

I got a velociraptor mount last night from a quest. It was a nice change of pace from the white horse I had been charging around on. Plus I just get a kick out of a paladin on a velociraptor. I had not done any of the Chaos Dungeons or Honing until after I went to the northern iceland place...

Yeah I figured it had hung so I shut it down and rebooted my machine..... Now I'm locked out as it thinks I'm trying to login multiple times on the same account :(

Did Regulus just shit the bed?

Lego has become a serious dent on my wallet... But I just like it so damn much

That's a pretty sweet Lego Tallneck however...

Im not entirely sure how this happened, but I ended up with Paladin as my guy I got to 50. I think because I was waiting to play other classes with friends but then they all flaked... I kinda enjoy it actually. I'm mostly using him as a caster which seems lightyears more useful than his sword...

Yeah it was already leaked extensively so they decided to lean into it. There is that oft-repeated notion that spoilers actually make people more interested owing to anticipation.

Just hit level 50 at the start of Steampunk land and I have no idea what to do now... I guess I just follow the main "plot"?

There is definitely an overwhelming sensation with all the different skills/stats/levels/collections etc. Taking it easy and just addressing one thing at a time seems to be the way to ease into it. Thankfully most enemies while levelling are weak enough that you have plenty of time to get used...

I love that Vigilante is absolutely aware that he doesn't have emotions like other people do and that doesn't phase him for the same reason. He also seems rather durable given the degree to which he gets damaged each episode yet keeps on ticking.

I will say that I felt overwhelmed when the garrison-thing opened up at the same time as the faceted gems etc. Maybe because I just hammered G when they were explaining everything out of habit...

Who the fuck thought that "Thigh Rain" was a good name?

So I'm level 25 but I've not claimed shit as it all seems to be one-per-accounr and I have FOMO if this isn't gonna be my main dude. Should I just go with it? Theres just so many doodads and collectibles and such.

I am a little surprised that Filoni let someone else direct Cad Bane's swan song... but good that there were some stakes associated with the whole deal. I still gotta wonder who the fuck are all these people arriving on Tatooine daily

I recall there being a 'choose control layout' at the very outset that included a WASD option, but clearly I am misremembering. Seems weird that they would not include that.

Remapping skills to numbers so I could use my NAGA thumb-keypad made all the difference in the world for me. I just could not get a feel for the effective use of abilities before I did that.

I am the guy who usually reads the quest text and likes taking in the atmosphere of the story and I'm just hammering G and esc whenever possible. Hopefully it gets better at some point... or at least less with this insufferable dink of a priest.

The Problem With Critical Role’s Latest Campaign This article pisses me off to the nth degree. It perpetuates its own core thesis of 'Orientalism' by portraying northern africa and southwest asia as exotic, but its written in English by someone in Maryland for fuck's sake. The author is...

I got the names I wanted... I must be exceptionally dull hah

Why even encrypt it in the first place? The people who would pirate the assets and content are the ones who made it...

Yeah they replaced Summoner with Sorcerer so they could have a more direct 'nuker' class. They will add Summoner with the first quarter after launch. Did the korean version add Artist last month? Saw something about 'Aeromancer' as well but honestly getting a real list of all the classes and...

Man I want to throat punch that little shit Paul... which is a testament to how successful they have been in crafting the character. Really everyone on this planet is a walking nightmare with the possible exception of the one asian girl and Father. I feel bad for Father. Poor droid is...

Its not a reboot so much as a continuation. The original Quantum Leap series happened in the context of this new series, which opens up the possibilities for interesting fan service. Shame that its going forward after Dean Stockwell passed as he was a driving force behind trying to get the...

The detective being the detective from iZombie means he's a smidge typecast for my liking, but I'm willing to roll with it. The Reacher books are largely standalone yes? So we are likely to get all new people for season 2 (other than Reacher himself)

The gameplay of BL3 was great and smooth. The loot was fun. The side stories were stellar. Just the main core plot was ass.

I'm curious if history will repeat itself and D&D serves as the intro/gateway into TTRPGs and then people branch out from there to more interesting systems/settings? I was playing in a D&D zoom game for a couple years but then the existing GM wanted a break so I took over with a new steampunk...

Never underestimate the power of Timothy Olyphant

Maybe its meant to ensure we care more about the fate of Azeroth. We've seen what comes after death and its pretty meh. Additionally the fact that they did an entire expansion about life and death without addressing the frequency with which PCs get rezzed / respawn feels rather inauthentic.

Shadowlands should have had such a cosmic scope to it. Even the writing of the different Covenant areas alluded to the concept of moving on and removing yourself from the concerns of your mortal existence as you realize that there is a larger scale to everything. Instead it was just sort of...

Yeah Deputy Dan was toast the moment his mouth opened. Vanth is clearly only winged (and does need to get some damn armor or something)
