    Lotta "chicks" with long swords in that pic. History approves.

    B / low budget movies that should have a modern remake.

    Dragonslayer. I really liked that movie as a kid, especially the lottery scene, and of course all the cool dragon stuff.

    Octopath Traveler

    Haven't had a ton of time with it, but just finished up my 8th person's starting quest. Olberic and Therion are by far my favorite characters, with Tressa being the most "waddafug?" kind of addition. And I am a hardcore crafter/getherer asshole at heart, so it should have been completely in...

    Octopath Traveler

    Whomever did the RPGsite review didn't get past the character collection part of the game, unless I missed something in the review. They also scored the game the lowest, tied with exactly one other rag compared to over a dozen that went for B+ or better. We'll see, but being an outlier doesn't...

    Octopath Traveler

    F'n awesome. Only got to a party size of 3 during the demo, but man is it cool shit. Can't wait for full release next month. Bought switch for the games that -will- be coming out and BoTW, and this is one of the ones I've been waiting for. Glad it releases a solid bit of time before DQ11 hah.

    ThunderCats Roar - Proof there is no God

    Jesus... watched the trailer video, and the first guy they flip to looks like he should be buried in the first level of Super Mario Bros. 2. Why can't people shit on their own childhood instead of mine?

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Nah; we're a den of (admittedly justified) negativity when it comes to Brad-centric games. Too many of us have played EQ/Vanguard and have seen firsthand his shenanigans. We are -not- a good shill spot. If the product is good we'll embrace it, but if it is subpar in -any- way it'll get shit...

    The Concert Thread or Why They Were Better Live

    Slayer farewell show at Irvine was great! Except Behemoth sucks donkey dong compared to literally every other band on the lineup, and didn't fit the vibe at all. Except maybe Satan or something? Lamb of God halting the show so medics could get to a downed mosher, with people behind me yelling...

    Swamp Donkey, Mom of the year.

    This is FOH; if a tranny wasn't involved somehow I don't think I would believe it is real. That's just how FoH do.

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    It's a pretty standard corporate stance: If it makes money, spend money on it. If it just keeps things running, spend as little as possible to keep it running. Operation costs vs. development costs. Both are a cost, but one maintains while the other makes you money. I definitely believe...

    New World

    It's easy to tie crafting into endgame gear. Drops from raid bosses can't be dropped, and they can only be created by crafters who have killed the boss (character flag) and the gear can only be worn by characters who have killed the boss (same character flag!). Voila; best gear in the game as...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Er, I'm not sure what game you played, but Allas certainly wasn't spoiling relevant endgame content with strats when EQ was relevant. The information most certainly was not available for relevant endgame content through at least Velious, and I want to say through Luclin as well. Drops and some...

    Cool, a year of beta in a game based on rare spawns and mild content denial, in the modern era. That won't completely ruin everything by the time it hits actual release or anything! Instead of monopolizing the good shit after discovering it as an uberguild like the good old days... you'll have...

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    That'd be the one. I hadn't heard it before the show, and it was hard to pick out the specific lyrics. Just a pretty big departure from what sounds like the rest of the album.

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    Not specifically Tool-centric, but the APC show at the Arlington in SB tonight was pretty great. They have one song on the new album I'm not stoked about (you know the one if you were at the show; very pop-esque) but the rest was good stuff. Hopefully new Tool early next year!

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    The real pain is that it isn't Trig where most CS degrees stop. At least in California, you're looking at least getting to Multivariable Calc, and most want you to have every non-theory math class completed. The Math reqs for physics and computer science are largely the same, with vastly...

    Wild Arms (2018 - *series* Reboot) : Million Memories

    First Wild Arms was pretty classic (I honestly didn't like the AF remake, but I may be weird) and the second one was pretty decent. Third was different and removed a lot of the "gear" stuff from the games, but was still pretty cool. The rest of the releases were decidedly "meh."

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    They went through and removed all the question wording, due to Cisco finally deciding enough was enough with them. You have the answers, but not what they were asking in the first place for almost all of the material, making it a slog. It's still around, just nowhere near as useful as it once was.

    Weight Loss Thread

    Might fuck up your keto-ing if you start chucking berries (fairly sure they are too high in sugar to be used in most keto diets, but I'll let the experts chime in) into shakes without massaging the carbs out of other spots in your intake. Should look into Erythritol(sp?) as an additive...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Bad two week class! If I remember right, you aren't new to this stuff (I think we're talking R&S, yeah?) so it's probably just nonsense questions where there's a right answer and there's a Cisco answer. When I took my R&S last year, that's what I missed, I'm fairly sure. Some specifics about...

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    I can see not completing 8, but 7 is fairly epic. 6's entire ending section is pretty massive compared to others between 5 and 10, so I can see being daunted by that. 9 is confusing when you are at the final final boss, but 10's ending is really fun, and the battle is pretty rough. Best boss...

    Think I've figured out why you can't figure out the attraction of the DQ series. It's hidden in the "offset by Toriyama's typical character design, unfortunately" comment, haha. If you don't like Toriyama artwork, you wouldn't like the series most likely. Especially with the 8th entry. But...

    Ni No Kuni II

    I'm in chapter 3 right now; liking the game a lot so far, though I do wish combat was a little more tactical at this point. I'm trying to remember any difficulty spikes in the first Ni No Kuni, and about the only one that stands out is the battle in the port/vacation town where you finally kind...

    I think VG was a better "game" than EQ, but this of course brings up all the fun "EQ was a game!" arguments. It was a chatroom for 9/10ths of players. VG was an actual game.

    response to Control - Eh, you know 2-10k people who would pay for that experience. Those people are also incredibly more likely to congregate together, and share similar ideas when they do. So they aren't reaching out to others and making a good case for their game-play style preference; they...

    Monster Hunter: World

    There's a tip above about doing the superman to avoid his basically 1-hit KO dive. Otherwise, the "easiest" way is to grab one of the shield based weapons and just block/counter your way to victory. Works on just about everything, just generally not quickly (charge blade not included!) If you...

    3pc Uragaan can block everything in the game, I'm pretty sure. When I fight Kirin with my Lance, I stand in her face and just up poke after every bolt of lightning (Can get slightly animation locked with a counter, and it can double bolt pretty often) Multiplayer is a flat flag. If you are...

    Retro Game of the Month March 2018: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (Playstation)

    The dialogue I heard the most (of course) was the intro with Richter by far as I learned the moveset in order to start with slightly higher overall stats. It doesn't make a real difference, but hearing the "What is a man?.." speech over and over was oddly kind of worth it haha.

    Just wanted to pop in and say that the Zodiac version that was released recently for the PS4 avoids having all the characters being the same by forcing you to pick classes that get used up once chosen. The license grid also doesn't have every weapon/armor/skill on it. The combat definitely is...

    Real men don't use online crutches. JK, it is just a completely different game with a helper along for the ride. Completely trivializes a lot of the mechanics that make the bosses "hard." Aldrich arrow rain mechanic is pretty rough solo, as you have to actively run away from it and usually...
