    Path of Exile

    I figured if I'm going to be super casual I can waste resources in the super casual way but my gaming instincts definitely fight it :P I'll send you a message whenever I make it on, probably be later though. Thanks

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    I don't see myself ever subscribing to an individual company's service. Back in the haydays of cable, I would have loved a la carte options and would have loved to be able to pay less for only the shit I wanted, but now? You need to provide a LOT of content to make me go out of my way to...

    Path of Exile

    Super newb question, is there a way to "target" a unique item at lower levels? I just hit 16/17 and want Facebreakers but don't even have 1c and I assume that any Facebreakers I could buy would be much higher level anyway. I just wanna see if I enjoy it before I grind out the rest of the levels...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    If the only thing to come out of an entire one hour episode is that one main character may or may not be dead, that's a pretty fucking weak episode. The dragon charge was out of character for the newer Jaime and especially out of character if you consider his contemplation atop the horse in the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    1. The ballista was only there because they already knew these dragons could be hurt by guys throwing spears at the biggest, meanest of the dragons previously. It didn't even make the dragon drop, it still hovered and burned the ballista right after being hit. 2. It's only character development...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well we got a whole bunch of repetitive rehashed dialogue about the North bending the knee so they obviously couldn't fit in the military council. Which is a shame because I'm sure Tyrion or anybody would have taken the chance to advise against burning the wagons full of food.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Don't have that dumb literally pointless scene that was completely out of the realm of belief and accomplished nothing? Like literally, just cut the entire ballista bit out. It was cheesy action movie trope level nonsense. 2 more minutes of people getting run down by horses would have been...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't care about hyperbole in dialogue, personally. I think Euron's speech was reasonable as a dramatic speech. I do care that the latest episode was almost entirely pointless. The discovery of the paintings / carvings in the and dialogue dragon glass cave? Pointless. The dialogue leading up...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The Iron Islands and Krakens look cool in the show but are way the fuck more well done in the books. In the show they're just all over the place (plot-wise and literally) and seen to largely just be random cameos for effect at this point. As the story starts getting towards the end a lot of...

    I actually like Dizzy's stream a fair bit, she does play games and is pretty open and honest in general about herself. She does not show any skin beyond normal clothes as far as I've ever seen but I still mostly just watch Anthony so maybe I missed it. That being said, I do have as big a crush...

    Path of Exile

    For starter builds do people just do whatever or do you aim for a specific build right out of the gate? I'm looking up builds but I don't know the difference between one you can go for as a first character vs. one that requires 83 particular drops of an exact thing oriented by the 7 moons or...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    I don't think I have it installed to test 100% but the old one never mentioned online only. And their little "WB Play" or whatever feature never seemed to click on half the time anyway so if that's anything to go by, it'll be lots of fun just not being able to play because their login servers...

    Path of Exile

    I'm tempted to give this a shot with all the 3.0 hype. I don't really know what I'd want to try playing, I normally default to martial artsy builds where available - is Facebreaker not a good one to go for right away? How hard is it to get going? Seems like there's a lot of "variations" in the...

    Rick and Morty

    I was pretty meh about Episode 2 of S3 but I like E01 and E03. I generally appreciate and am entertained by Rick being an unstoppable force of universal nature and the whole "wtf is going on" the entire episode of ep. 3 kept me interested.

    It really just never goes where you expect it to.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Color me unimpressed. The battle scene was cool but the whole episode felt kind of hollow. The dialogue was generic at best and over the top at worst. Everything seemed forced. The only parts of the episode I really cared for were the Stark children interacting. Oh and let's burn the supply...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    It's non-cosmetics which means the game, at least to some degree, is balanced around the cash shop. Considering they mentioned things like the power level of your minions and there was pseudo-Diablo loot in the first one, this really is obnoxious. The only reason they'd make it is if they...

    You're capped on how many crates you can grab of each kind per week, and the costs go up pretty high.

    That might just be you, I actually couldn't find anyone on reddit complaining about the servers right now, everyone seems happy. Even people that had issues before the patch.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    People were saying the server diarrhea had a threshold of about ~60 players in the match, so the meta quickly became "land where other people don't because holy shit lag" and hope 39 people die before you find anyone. It was kind of interesting to see it change so fast but also lame :p...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think out of all the possible theories, that makes the least sense. Especially given the context of what else we've seen. But it is technically a potential theory I guess.

    Death Wish (2017)

    Huh. That's a lot of adaptions and stuff around it. I mean, considering the plot itself has been done every which way a few dozen other times in films too, it seems weird to specifically bother to remake it.

    Wolfenstein: The New Colossus

    Why is that such a long word in German? Those promo videos are so good. The villains in the Blitzmensch one are brilliant and spot on. Not many games I've looked forward to this much in a long while.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Like 95% or more of the TNG episodes had no threat whatsoever to the federation, and many episodes had no real threat to even the crew, although sometimes they would artificially force some threat from the 3rd parties to more heavily invest the crew in the plot I guess. DS9 went away from that...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Littlefinger and Varys are such goddamned wildcards even after all this time, it's a little exhausting to ponder what happens to them. I'm glad Arya got this far though, I've been rooting for her for forever. Edit: Ramsey is quite out of the picture now though so that is somewhat irrelevant...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Equilibrium still wins for some of the best gunplay scenes ever. John Wick is up there but considering how... not A-list-movie Equilibrium is, it still looks damn good.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    I was just going off people posting in the thread on Reddit, maybe they got confused. So Gamescon is ONLY new stuff? That's less bad but I still think it should be a whole outfit for real money.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    Honk-sniping was very popular on test server yesterday because it was SO easy to get into a game with the big streamers (Grimmz, Doc). I can't imagine it stays much of a thing on live, although horns are awesome and have tactical uses, especially on duos/squads. Some people complained about the...

    Hearthstone

    1-cost spells are destroyed. It does nothing to minions. Also, it's a 6 mana minion, if it DID kill minions it would more than likely help the other decks more because drawing 1-cost minions on turns 6/7/8 is certainly not great

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I feel like the people complaining that characters are accepting of dragons (with visual evidence) among the other feats, yet not believe in things which haven't even been in common myth for thousands of years, have never actually interacted with people in real life because that is 100% how...

    Lawbreakers PC multiplayer FPS

    I ended up not going for it. Basically just reiterating my previous post, but I only seemed to enjoy playing the 1 character, which is probably a sign I don't enjoy the game enough for the long term (because I usually enjoy playing everything in class games)

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    Like I said before, I disagreed with your opinions, that was my counter-list of why I don't want those things (aside from the window bars which seem universally hated). I haven't played BF1 but sniper rifles in PUBG are the most balanced of any game I've played by far. They are NOT forgiving...

    Hearthstone

    It's 9 mana but also makes it extremely unlikely you die for a turn so it kind of works. The passive is nuts. Seems like it will see play for sure.

    Black Panther (2018)

    That could apply to any non-European country though? This statement still works, not surprisingly: Except China I guess but it wouldn't make sense to do a hidden super-civilization in China when they already did the hidden super-magic people in Tibet.

    I guess get good then? If I have no issue spotting people shooting at me with snipers from 500+ range at 30 hours, you should be able to do it before they even shoot, right?

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    I've been shot from behind cover at long distances plenty. If they don't 1-shot you, you should be able to tell within like 20 degrees or so exactly where they are. It is impossible, without abusing bugs or cheating, to be shooting at someone at have them not be able to see you if they look at...

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    I pretty much disagree with all of these except 5. 1. I have about 30 hours in the game and I can zero in on someone in like 2 shots, and I suck. Brighter muzzle flashes would be super unrealistic and weird looking too unless only SLIGHTLY brighter. If you're relying on muzzle flashes to find...

    For every person I know that has no problem with BT reliability.... actually I've never met anyone that didn't have a complaint about BT, but I work in a very techie company and mostly know techie people so they'd be the ones to bitch I suppose. My dad likes it because it gets rid of the cord...
