I could see if someone wanted to try to make some money competing in the cut throat world of pandemic video card/console shortage acquisition, sure. It's the next Oliver Stone movie. I waited 3 years for prices to come down after I bought my 1080ti at launch and got a 2080ti a year or so later...

My apologies if I misunderstood, sincerely. I would say the "Themepark" MMO isn't quite dead [insert Monty Python gag here] but has stagnated to the point no one is building for it anymore because of all the reasons we were rehashing above. Why build for a genre that one company/game owns? It's...

"Supposed to be about"? Respectfully, what does that even mean? To be part of a larger world, with lots of other people doing things going on that don't involve you. I was present at the start of the MMO era, UO, EQ, (I remember there was something before UO on some service but for the life of...

Just for the record, I said "*I* would have disregarded it, because this seems like a huge overreaction to me, and I don't get the huge tidal wave reaction to the idea of boosts and a cash shop. At least its understandable from a competitor. We will just have to disagree here. Small...

It's not dying because of cash shops, though; its dying because of lack of innovation and a 10 ton whale sitting on the industry, and no one willing to move into the space, including investors, for fear of not getting WoW like returns or crowds. Either they import Asian grind-fests or its...

I've got some occasional stuttering in cutscenes on the PC version, so went back the XSX and have gotten pretty good at the LB/action wheel for weapon switching, which I think will make everything OK for ME2 when I break out the Vanguard.. Also have the console mini game down, which was giving...

Yeah, it's terrible. That said, I would be willing to chip in if someone wanted to buy a license if it got me a 6800XT/6900XT/3080TI at MSRP.

Wow, I knew there would be backlash but holy shit the amount of crying over this. There were some boosts in the GW2 shop from the getgo, I think? I don't remember this level of complaining but that game launched in 2012 and ESO launched in 2015 before we became a country of pure Grade A...

I've played some FemShep and Jennifer Hale is good, and I don't have to suspend my disbelief too much in a future with aliens and biotics but I don't hear this VAST quality difference between her and Mark Meer, who does a great job, too. I mean, She's good, and He's Shepard for me and...

Other folks can correct me but there is no respec in ME1 if recall correctly, but you get plenty of points as you level up, particularly if you have Legendary mode on. ME2 and ME3 have respecs. I don't think you fill out your class but I don't recall feeling pressured about where points went...

A Black woman would be the only one who could say those things in 2021. "Given how poorly we were treated on our own planet, how do we know the aliens aren't going to be Oppressors?"

I love your ambition/retardation.

They did a way better job of showing this in "Jupiter's Circle"; they should have cut all three periods in to the story together, or told it prequel-style the way the did in the comics. The way it unfolds there is way better than this slow/Stupid roll out that makes no fucking sense. If people...

I always thought Matthew Fox would make a great Shepard. But Henry Cavil? Amazing. Of course they could have to blackwash it though in 2021 and find a BIPOC Woman for the role. Raaaaacist. Only Henry Golding dressed as a woman can play femshep. Wait, not authentically Trans, you say? Then...

Playing it on the console now and thought "Why not play through ME1 as an Adept this time?" I had a pretty good run as an Adept on a play through a few years ago, let that be my class. Holy hell using powers on the console is so different. I may either switch back to the Soldier or the PC, I...

The last 16 posts are why adding this "code" BS to the story was a shit idea and completely unnecessary. It's like the last two seasons of GOT but at the start of a show. The showrunners are borderline retarded and need to apologize to the Netflix viewing audience.

Watch it. WATCH IT AGAIN.

-The defined class vs. open class system is always a big debate, and I know lots of people are going to come down on each side of the fence. As long as it's more like Elder Scrolls/ESO and less like ME: Andromeda, it won't be so bad. In games where you know the system or they give you a...

Watched a couple of the videos, Force Gaming and then another video by another guy playing a Dex fighter doing DPS on the same run, Ser Medieval? who did a great job showing off the combat and the UI, weapon switching, etc. He said a couple of things as asides that I didn't know that bummed me...

If you read the book, you see why they are this setting up; the show runners think that there has to be an previously shown visible logical reason for the others to do the things that they do coming up/later on. Sheldon as the Utopian is also so much more powerful than anyone else, the only one...

This. This is the thing right here. I am not a Koster SWG players are the content guy but so much of the richness of EQ came out of the DnD campaign roots of the design, where there was a world with factions, rivalries that the player was dropped into and then earned + or - with. Where you...

I preordered this for the XSX. Looks great, the narrator sounds groovy, the various combat stuff looks amazing. Good price, too, no digital deluxe, just normal stupidly (and a really stupid) priced physical editions. Pre-order bonus is available later in the game through normal play. A little...

Always check, always disappoint.

I won't say I know Lanx but I have seen Lanx post over the years; I voted for him, (not that matters for anything) and we all have our things; I was confusing Zyyzyzzy with someone else, missed the episode in question, and don't have to deal with the retarded monkeys here as AMOD at all. Seemed...

Would that be internalized White Supremcy or exo-ternalized White Supremacy? Do Better, Leadsalad!!!

Wow, I can't ever think of an incident where I didn't support Mods this seems way over the top. Didn't Zx just lose a bet about the election? Was AladinAF really on the defund the police bandwagon? Am I confusing him with someone else? CtC and Lanx have upset my understanding of the world.

I still haven't watched the show yet but can imagine why they are doing what they are doing. It's providing motive for things that are coming in Season 2 should it happen. In the comic its explained in a few panels of dialogue and It would be an unnecessary change if they just stuck with the...

I literally don't know how they could fuck this up that badly.

The spoilered part is literally some of the best stuff. It sounds like they are mixing in Jupiter's Circle and Jupiter Legacy and will end on

So I both love and despise aspects of Millar's work, sometimes in the same book. When I saw the trailer for this, I read this online and liked it so much I bought the 4 physical volumes. I GD love this comic. It's become one of my favorite independent Superhero books. From a narrative...

In Hades it seemed like you could do a whole run in a relatively short period of time. This seems like Doom in hardcore mode. It's a super beautiful game that still calls to me when I see it in videos; I would no doubt have been a Day One Deluxe purchaser of had it not been for this fact right...

This is a terrible post and you are a terrible person.

I literally paid $250 dollars for this in the first Obama administration. I should have invested in Bitcoin. Who knew at the time the other one was the real thing?

It was really really good, Mark is just too much of a bitch in the show compared to the comic. I was defending the show earlier but he just seems so less like the 2nd strongest hero on Earth, the only one who could stand up to Omni-Man and more like Amber's bitch guy. This fight and the Machine...

Yeah, I found a way past this boss; I am just not going to turn on my PS5 for a while. I have several Real Life frustrating things going on, and I am not going to pay full price for an alluring but ultimately frustrating and unsatisfying digital companion piece for them. In this case, art...

Thing about Texas is, its about the same size as France: Hey Guys, I am going to France, what are some good restaurants? Will second most of the recommendations here except Rudy's which admittedly I haven't been to a long time. Everyone raves about Buckee's as the gas station truck stop to...

GD it, I can just feel the money leaving my wallet the next time I turn on my PS5. I STILL HAVE TO FINISH LAST EPOCH, ASSHOLES. Plus I will get frustrated and have to replay areas about a dozen times because I die in these games, I always do: It's just part of how I play, and fuck these people...

This is such a beautiful game. I may go ahead and get it knowing its going to frustrate the hell out of me. I just never got really good at Hades and if I couldn't make that game work, you know the genre is not my cup of tea; I am too locked into ignoring/taking damage to succeed in a...

Launch-era Guild Wars 2 was also exactly what I going to post as well as example of how to do this "right", i.e. to my taste. Large scale public events joinable at any time by individuals or groups, and rewards commensurate with contribution. Public events themselves were so well done in GW2...

But he's/Batroc are Quebecois/French, so...<squint>
