To add to this, if anything, all they appear to encourage is further segregation. Compare Trek back in the late 60s where Kirk and Uhura kissed and present day where all black protagonists "stick with their own kind". The girl in this has a black lover, the lead in Discovery has a black lover...

Saw an interview with the main actors on Graham Norton the other day. Don't ordinarily watch it as I can't stand the guy but anyway, Daniel Craig looked on edge the whole interview. Every time one of the other actors were talking the camera kept cutting to him and he looked like he was nervous...

I'm mostly enjoying this but the one thing I find particularly jarring are the numbers they keep flinging around. Like, 100 million people died when X happened, or 30 trillion people depend on this, etc. I get they're going for some grand scale but in case of the first example I just don't see...

FINAL FANTASY XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS CAST Was surprised at some of the faces on there. Bunch I've never heard of but a fair few who are fairly famous on UK tv and in the theatre.

In levelling new jobs I've taken my eye off gearing my current 80s. Thought I'd catch up on the MSQ before EW and discovered I need to be 490 for an instance and I'm sat at 480 on everyone. Could buy gear but it'll clear me out and seems pointless when the gear will be redundant in a little...

Could throw some Squadron Command missions in as well. They're not great but they help you dispense with the DF queues 50-60. 50-53 Brayflox (Hard), 53-57 Sohm Al, and 57-60 The Vault.

Play Monk Problem solved.

Jeez... I am getting old. This was meant for FFXIV.

Haven't been on much this last week but took DRK to 50 so now the real painful grind to 80. Seems simplistic compared to PLD and GNB but I'm getting old and less buttons to mash for similar levels of results is a good thing.

I still love the fact that after having written most of his James Bond novels Fleming went on to write Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang.

When you need someone to guide you around like a blind person because of your wardrobe choice then you need to have a fucking word with yourself. Darwinism needs to exert its influence and hard.

Last weeks' I was a bit late to the show on this one but will keep my eyes peeled for the upcoming week.

I highly value the opinion of a whiny scouse wearing an hawaiian shirt.

Do you not even Priscilla?

Besides the first Matrix and V for Vendetta, what are we basing our expectations on that this is going to be anything half decent?

Yeah, I didn't explain myself very well.

I can't see how people can get too passionate about the Matrix series. I mean, the first movie was excellent but the successive two were hot messes that ruined everything that came before them. Something like making Star Wars then going straight to The Last Jedi, twice.

Yep. I mean, there are standard templates across Trek that are used time and again in each series. Just off the top of my head - time travel, mirror universe, stranded on a planet with hostile environment/locals with the added injured crew member dynamic, prime directive dilemma, coming of age...

Or save yourself the pain and wait for the expansion when all of the endgame gear now is wiped within three levels.

Okay, that made me so not want to watch this movie. I mean, I will, but if the purpose of that trailer was to generate interest it missed the mark by a looooong way.

It's arguably not even Star Trek if they just tool around on Earth for the entire season with Stewart making like a geriatric Sam Beckett.

Missed opportunity to recast Morpheus as Caitlyn Jenner.

What I do in my spare time is my own business. And the sheep's to a lesser degree.

Fuck's sake. Quantum Leap meets Star Trek. Only unfortunately for us the cast are fucking old, awful, or just fat. Like we clearly can see what Dahj and Jurati's actors spent their S1 paycheck on.

The obvious answer is to be a gay vet who loves sci-fi!

And the space trans couple whose love transcends death!

Spare a thought for all of those folks from Hello Kitty Online who are still looking for a home.

Not really, you're pretty restricted on decent zones at 50 and above and even below that it's kind of slow because you can't really pull multiple packs. The party just can't sustain a heavy input of damage.

Mine are all maxed out. All female, mostly FemRoe and Miqo'te. :D They cap at 60 though so you're left with 10 levels before you can use your Trust.

Yeah, but it's fast and not so repetitive for me as I haven't done much PotD. I literally only have Drk and Blm left under 50 to level and the thought of doing multiple Brayfloxs', Qarn, Cutters etc to get to 50 leaves me feeling a bit queasy.

Am I looking at PotD as the best way to take Drk from 32 to 60 with MSQ Roulette included post 50? Resigned to 60+ just being grindy.

I'm getting a feeling of deja vu. Unless you're Dach, in which case it was your story to tell.

The Free Company NPC Party is excellent if you're a healer or deeps but can be really frustrating as a tank. You find yourself pulling small and there's still a significant chance you won't get a heal in time.

Yeah.

Dude, I have a first edition Silmarillion which I managed to snag from an ex 20 or so years ago. In all that time I've never made it past page 16. It really does not need to be turned into a movie.

I honestly hope you find what you're looking for. I personally don't have any Vanguards left in me.

SK friend of mine called Dachande used to cruise round the low level zones offering money to newbies. When they'd turn up at his location he'd tell them to hit /d (for deliver) then proceed to butcher them when, to their surprise, their names turned red. He used to maintain any shit deeds he...

I hear you but there's a game for all those folks who miss a twenty year-old game, it's called Everquest. Unless they're content to have a sub 50k subscription base, and can afford to support that while drawing salaries, I don't see how this is ever going to be anything other than borderline...

Love the delayed clap.

I had that phone. It lasted less than 3 months. Used to make calls while in the bath and the condensation got in and rusted it to fuck.
