I am getting a twinge of FOMO and a desire to make Cyberpunk 2077 look as pretty as possible....

So Spiderman Miles Morales and a bunch of PS4 'classics' are the true launch titles?

The discless at $399 is very compelling. It certainly compares favorably to the 'wtf-level' Xbox Series You-just-fucked-developers-with-a-min-spec-S

Yeah I saw that blurb and immediately thought of this thread. Consider also the whole Black Wall Street massacre in Tulsa OK and how completely unknown it was to most people until just recently. If you have an active disinformation campaign fostered by the Empire's control of interstellar...

Note that the story does continue after the "Campaign" is over. Think of the single player campaign as a very long tutorial / intro. This is similar to Destiny/Division/Anthem, but in this case there does seem to be genuinely an ongoing story that has had thought put into it.

His education has come solely from these people who are in exile. Its entirely possible that, despite his parents being killed in the Clone Wars it looks like, they never made mention of the Jedi as part of his upbringing as a foundling. Its clear he has no idea what the fuck the force is and...

It wasn't even his body most of the time. The melee stunt guy and the marksman stunt guy were in the suit far more frequently than he was.

50% rejection rate on the system-on-a-chip core sounds abysmal. Doubly so when you realize they must have relaxed their testing criteria a bit to even get it to that point and so its likely that somewhere around 10% of the units shipped will have underperforming cores.

Would make for good support superstructure for a goblin/gnome highrise. It is weird that they didn't even try to address this part of the plotline. I can only assume that it will be integral to the post afterlife plot

Make sure to do the Priority Mission each week. The first time you complete it you get stuff like 50 upgrade modules. Right now I'm starved for upgrade modules so this was a godsend.

I'm enjoying these animated previews they have been doing. They make it sound like Shadowlands is pretty cool with a compelling plotline, so good marketing there.

I think the Heroic Elite Hive was broken (the last Avenger standing mechanic doesn't work) and so they needed the exotic drops with the patch. I noticed that each time I did it tonight I got a level 1 item as a reward...

What are the expectations with respect to day one backwards compatibility for this? Now that it looks like both PS5 and Xbox Series X will be out before the release date will people who boot it up on their brand new console get a better experience owing to the superior hardware even before the...

Note that if you get a bad daily or weekly challenge you get one 'mulligan' whereby you can refresh it. This is helpful if you get one which is either bugged and doesn't get counted or which is just really hard to pull off (like defeating a big bot with a takedown...oftentimes it's not quite...

I think painting would be faster on a PC with keyboard mouse setup. The 'pan speed' once you go into paint mode on the controller is awful.

Captain America is fun as a glass cannon stacking precision for +ranged damage, but often at the cost of sturdiness. I have him kitted out for all sorts of procs on range hit and range crit including an invulnerability buff which is what I try and keep rolling to keep him from dying if I miss a...

Adult Swim had already greenlit season 8 back in 2018, what made them go back on this I wonder? From the sound of it the scripts were not done despite the 2 years since the end of production on S10, so maybe that was a factor? I would have expected the 8th season to have been in...

I like the idea they are exploring with Vanya though -- that while it's tempting to keep everything repressed it only leads to horrible things when the damn finally breaks. All the characters seem to be 'levelling up' with respect to what they can do and how they apply their abilities. Well...

I don't deny their efficacy, rather I bemoan that they even need to exist at all. It's all part of the action-based MMO genre whereby you are meant to spam a bajillion abilities in a very arcade-like sequence. It's fun to do, but it has more in common with Street Fighter than it does D&D.

Rotation helpers? It always seems silly to me that a 'rotation' exists. Means that it's not really a strategy / rpg at all and more of a rhythm game with a fancy skin. I suppose its natural with the overall action-y speed of RPGs these days... Very different from the style of even Baldur's...

There's some serious bugs now with outfits. I used the Fabrication Machine to decry..err decipher some patterns and instead of adding those new outfits it actually deleted ones I already had...

The weekly challenge did not reset. Shows the same as before and complete despite the clock resetting to 7 days (well 6d 18h right now)

Echo the opinion on Pym gear. Having the baddies get shrunk is soooo satisfying and they hit like wet noodles as little bitty guys.

So this is weird. Finished both weekly and daily quests on Ms. Marvel and still only showing 14 challenge points total. From these alone there should be 28 (11 each for the two weeklies and 3 each for the dailies) but I've also completed the daily quests on her on several days. This is not on...

Nice that the finally clarified that Diego is a telekinetic...he just hasn't really exercised his power over anything but the knives. Had a chuckle at the Sparrow academy though. Number 5 is really amazing. They really did a smart job with casting that role.

There was a graphics glitch involving hair on the Xbox that is now fixed as of this mornings patch. No idea what else there was but I assume it's similar graphics and stability stuff

Yeah the various gear and ability synergy builds are starting to gel for me. Like Cap can go super offensive with brawling or go ranged combat with shield tossing and Steamroller OR you can use Commanders Call and go super tanky by specializing in resilience and such. Make sure to hover over...

Finished the campaign and opened up the Initiative and good grief there is a LOT to do. If they make regular new characters / content updates this could really be the looter/shooter MMO that Destiny and the Division tried to be. Beating up AIM with buddies is just so damn satisfying .

So problem with the cosmetic scheme is that most of the costumes I'd want (Makeshift Ironman, Weapon-X Cap, Hello my name is Blake Thor) are ones you get just doing the playthrough.

The anthill vendor on the Chimera is just the Roy guy who is next to the cosmetic vendor in the Commons area

Note that each character has their own Daily and Weekly missions so make sure you switch it up for the short strikes in order to get them all done.

I'm having fun with it. The single player experience is a fun story so far and the multiplayer is divorced from it in a way that people who don't want to play as Kamala Khan don't have to go through the story.

This is a fundamental issue with the stat scaling in the game. Right now it's an IQ check to make sure you only put points into the one stat that can improve your primary mode of attack OR choose to go the Con route for health. They should consider some sort of point-buy system whereby you...

Life Staff is especially terrible. It seems as though most elites and anyone you might actually want to hurt has an Elemental armor at least 4x as big as their physical armor. Fire staff has more kick and a larger hit box plus the ability to slow down people who get hit. Life Staff can, in...

So different people have different starting areas and its apparently locked to your account which one you get. My buddy always starts at Monarch's Bluff and I always start at First Light and so trying to adventure together is pretty much impossible until the mid teens when you can readily make...

The game does do exploraholic well. Went out of town to gather hemp and noticed I was close to a faction objective so hit that up and then I was nearish to another one and then I was over by the mine so I might as well get some iron and silver for gemstones while I'm at it and then... Ended...
