    The hilarious part is all this came out because Vinny Mac decided to stop making the agreed upon payments for the NDA which is such a classically Vince move (making an agreement and then not paying, something he did to smaller promoters a hundred times over) that it's damn near Shakespearean...

    Path of Exile

    The conversion direction is phys - lighting - cold - fire - chaos. Penance Brand does 100% phys, converts half to lightning so it's 50/50. If you're doing physical to cold conversion even if it is 100% that doesn't matter because half is already lightning. You can convert everything to lightning...

    There was a league streamer back in the day that finished out a match before yanking it to some Tristana porn. If you're going to get get caught at least stay on brand.

    Road House

    The original works because you've got pretty boy Patrick Swayze at the near peak of his career along with Sam Elliott in a movie that starts reasonably grounded. The first act is just bouncers bouncing as Swayze has time to be charming before we're introduced to our Dukes of Hazzard tier...

    It's not something weird like the map itself isn't actually T16, is it? I don't know if T15s or T14s still generate level 85 areas.

    Path of Exile

    Yeah, I don't think any of the problems are insurmountable but each change they make comes with a couple gremlins and that all takes time to sort out. Right now the thing does technically work so convincing them to upend the apple cart something something PoE2 seems unlikely. When I was buying...

    The issue with the implementation of proper trade is the economy relies on friction inherent in the system to maintain stability. We've all seen the loot explosion highlight reels. If you took all that currency that coordinated team play can generate and then set those people lose in the...

    Nu-Harvest got nerfed for the same reason none of this is going core and why those boots are getting changed - power creep. There's nothing wrong with having a bananas juicer league. I hope no one that plays Path of Exile picked this league to skip because they'd be missing out. But you can't...

    If they were designed and implemented from the get go as T0 than maybe but if you bounce them up next league that's going to piss off the rabble while also being just really lazy.

    They're fine this league because this league is crazy but when it's over I'd prefer they were tossed in the same borrowed power bin as charms and tinctures.

    Yes, a league having something crazy in it isn't by itself a big deal. It's going to drive a streamer like Mathil insane because his whole thing is piloting a large variety of builds each league and Ralakesh is good enough to warp everything around it but he'll survive. Plotting out any...

    Aradune had more GM support but it was the equivalent of hiring some extra meter maids or traffic cops. You were more likely to get in trouble for piddly crap and that was it.

    Patrick Rothfuss Kingkiller Chronicles

    Last November the novella The Narrow Road Between Desires came out. It had been published previously but this was expanded a little, had some illustrations and was a hardcover. The MSRP on it was 26 dollars. I saw it at Target on sale and it was still like 19 dollars and pretty fucking thin. I...

    I knew a bunch of people including Yahtzee left The Escapist but I only just learned today that Yahtz has been doing a retooled version of Zero Punctuation Way to go YouTube for never, ever recommending me their shit. If anyone else liked his video game reviews and other wank here is where he is.

    I meant Sunshine is just space madness rather than being traveling through the warp without a psyker or the benefit of the astral beacon of the god emperor of mankind. Which is what Event Horizon is.

    28 Years Later

    It's the same affliction that Matt Damon suffered from in Interstellar - space madness. It's a common affliction in space. Sunshine is still pretty good up until the final action sequence.

    30 Days of Night is really solid, based on a comic and has a sequel with a fucking hilariously good open. "Hey, how come people don't ever do X OH SHIT SHE'S DOING IT"

    28 Years Later

    Flash Fact - 28 Days Later was inspired in part by Day of the Triffids sharing a very similar opening where our protagonist finds themselves in a hospital after a catastrophic event before wandering a ruined city. Instead of rage zombies it has mutant plant monsters and for the premise being...

    28 Years Later

    28 Days Later is great. 28 Weeks Later is real dumb yet watchable. I'm not sure there's much to do in this world that would be interesting given how many other works have explored zombies/infected.

    I've always had a real fondness for this picture. It's the folks at ILM creating the original Millennium Falcon and on the shelves behind them it looks like they called up Tamiya and ordered two of everything. Which happened to include a bunch of RC cars. The tanks, planes and boats I get...

    Tenet (2020)

    It's got some problems but it is worth a watch. It's well shot, well acted, some very expensive practical effects, all that jazz. This is also the movie that was going to bring the moviegoer back to the cinema after covid stuck giving it a little bit of bonus context.

    Rick and Morty

    This is where I'm at. Rick is fine but Morty randomly doesn't sound like Morty. The "good" episodes this season would be average episodes earlier in the life of the series and the 3-5 genuinely bad episodes (varying a little per person) are really fucking bad. I watch so little TV it's not a...
