I picked this up since it landed in my Steam queue at a severe discount. Seems all right and not something that had been on my RADAR before. I was wondering why there seemed to be a specific ux feature (spacebar) to get behind cover when cover didn't seem to do anything so the 2.0 info above...

The 4:3 makes sense when you realize it was filmed for IMAX and framed as such.

Started watching this while having coffee this AM and got through all of part 1 (37 mins in) and so far I'm liking it. Definitely a much slower pace than the theatrical release but it suits the epic nature of the piece. I might watch it in the distinct parts with some breathing room...

So ActiBlizz lays off 190 people but Bobby Kotick gets a $200M bonus because the company is doing so well...

Dungeons and Dragons XTREEM!!

Coming soon, along with Sorcerers, Monks, Paladins and the like.

Even at Mythic-0 where no shenanigans is even remotely necessary you run into people that act like they are running a +15 and want you to link achievements and gearscore and crap like that. Yes I am sure there are plenty of people who aren't like that, but enough are that it just makes it...

The chief issue with the start of the game is that it blows its load WAAAAY too early. In the opening cinematic you have Dragons, Mindflayers, multiple teleports and a trip to Avernus. Then within the first chapter your party (including a Githyanki and a vampire) are already travelling to...

Well daayumn. I was wondering if I should pre-order for Xbox or PC, but now I need not worry I suppose.

Got to 40 Renown and promptly cancelled my account. 9.1 is far away and even then that content drop seemed to be all about Mythic content. Would love to do Mythic-0 or even Mythic-1 ish stuff but you still face an idiotic match-making system. Maybe they will figure out that there's a...

Watched the first one as I am a big fan of the dude from Kingdom and a few other things. He has a sort of Crispin Glover-if-he-was-an-MMA-fighter' vibe. Unfortunately the first episode was a bit of a let down in terms of it trying to build some intra-team tension between the Americans and the...

There has been a lot of energy poured into these new class and even spec specific legendaries that is totally misplaced. You can only have one so everyone just got the single one that matches their build and called it a day. I mean sure eventually you can wear two, but that seems far off...

http://awinegarner.squarespace.com/duel-of-the-fates I thought I'd give it a once-over and move on and ended up reading the entire first "issue". Its actually not half bad.

That is the one remaining utility of DVDs and BluRays. You can reliably watch something without having to wonder what streaming service it may or may not be on. Disney is playing it smart. They are adding lots of fluff content of the sort they spewed out of Disney channel back in the day but...

Could always get a single d20 as that's really the main die-of-fate in most games.

I don't know why it didn't occur to me that the coda at the very end is at Wundagore mountain, but it makes sense.

http://kck.st/3ekAjYR Funded in 6 mins... As a person who plays D&D over zoom with people all over the damn country I couldnt resist.

Saw an interesting theory that Ralph Bohner is a triple fake -- that we are meant to think 'oh God it's Pietro but then go 'oh it's just some dude that Agatha charmed' but it may really be Pietro and that he is the witness in protection that Jimmy Woo was coming to check on. The logic being...

Apparently they were working right up to the wire on post production. This is part of why the episode run lengths were not known as they didn't have a final cut of the finale until after episode 7 aired! One casualty of this was the Senor Scratchy scene in the finale that they filmed but cut...

Microsoft seems to be running Xbox cross promotions for Falcon and Winter Soldier focusing on missing out on 5 years of games due to the blip hence Game Pass. Interesting angle.

Is there a demo? I looked and there did not seem to be one on Steam

Still can't get over my issue with their magic system, primarily that there isn't one. They just have Life and Fire staves and by picking one up you suddenly just do magic like wielding a laser gun and figuring out it has a couple different settings. I'd be on board if they had something...

Saw this last night in the home cinema (gotta support the economics of releasing films for home screening vs AMC asshatery). Was a fun film with a cool mythology that was clearly SE Asian in nature but with enough fantasy to be its own thing. Metacontextually it had a good view of the...

Yeah they transitioned into fashion and style and are now just professionally fashionable.

The Covenant content ends next week. If they don't have *something* queued up to jump in immediately afterwards then they are truly stupid. It's such an obvious and natural 'end point' that you have to expect people will say 'yeah I'm done now...' in massive numbers. How can that ever get...

There is also creative accounting involved. They are gonna make bank on the Agatha merchandise alone.

Hayward's motivation seems to be aligned with the Sentient Weapons aspect of S.W.O.R.D. inasmuch as he wants a gun to use against the next Thanos that comes-a-calling. He clearly was on the Sokovian Accord side of things and sees superpowered people as a necessary evil at best to fight off...

Especially in a world where in a few weeks time everyone stops and stares at J Jonah Jamison crow about Spiderman being Peter Parker, or which was gushing about the Interdimensional hero Mysterio.

There are two mid-credits scenes

Hopefully by July/August these might be found in a store.

I suspect their goal is to focus much more on the Wonder Twins and Smallville Clark stuff

Played in a three man group from the start of the demo (after the intro) this evening and it was more challenging than solo at first while we were all learning different classes but by the time we were at the end of the demo and had some skill-mod gear etc things were getting smoother. Was a...

Note that not everything stacks. If you are comparing gear that has an ability on it that doesn't stack it will show up in red as part of the UX. This is true even if you are looking to replace the item that the ability is already on but its easy enough to understand.

Trickster with the bullet mod (2 magazine) + light machine gun (100 round clip) is pwnage at least in the demo. I just gotta remember to telepop around a bit more since it comes off cooldown pretty quickly and provides a nice shield. I do like that its a cover-shooter that has abilities built...

I do like the quests, especially the side quests, that make fun of the genre. I actually LOL'd at the 'This isn't a rescue...' mission as well as the douche Lt that backstabs those people then gets shot in the head.

What are essential PC VR games that one would want to try and play on the Quest 2? I don't think I can handle Alyx owing to my extreme motion sickness. I can mostly only do games where I'm moving around a fixed location (though I do have a large room to move in)

In thinking about the episode titles and how they play upon TV tropes 'Now in Color, Live before a Studio Audience, We Interrupt This Program, A Very Special Episode, Don't Touch That Dial etc.' we were speculating what the finale title could be: "Special Guest Star" "After These Messages"...

We also don't know if there are any remaining major cameos for the season since the basis for that was Paul Bettany's interview and we now know who he was referring to...
