    House of the Dragon

    God, that would have been a terrible idea. Its like Jupiters legacy massive fuckup of starting with the prequel stuff. no you morons. you have to start with the main hook of the NOW storyline. Get the hook, THEN show flashbacks. We haven't seen the "now" timeline hook for this show. so...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    Del toro has been putting out a heck of alot more misses then hits. but, I do love anthologies.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    costume complaints are common for this. "they are shit" is of course pretty vague. Wheel of time- shit. Due to anachronistic outfits. Designs don't really fit the world or characters often. unrelealistic as well. Especially fatal is a lack of attention to detail. stitching, modern items...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    no. A volcano is triggered from volcanic movement underground. Pressure buildup of lava, or gas, or, earthquakes, or tectonic shifts. All incidences where there is pressure underground, pushing up. Either slow magma leaks, or a giant explosion as the pressure pops the mountain cap. A...

    Saints Row 5

    that guy is a Yakuzi bike gang boss that tries to kill the player repeatedly.. how is that related? like in SR 5, there is a side mission where some rollerderby girl, hires the Boss to assassinate a Rival, because shes tired of losing. not a gangster, not a criminal, not a bad cop. you...

    Saints Row 5

    I was watching someone stream this game... and it really does feel off. The main characters are giant shitstains as noted. massive hypocrites. sociopaths. I'll admit, I was one of those hopping on with sr3. and having not played sr 1 or 2. SR3 definitely hit a "loveable rogue" tone...

    House of the Dragon

    I went and looked up the scene. I guess he was making a joke or something. it doesn't play out like he said. He claimed she was immune to the fire, and the dragon tried to kill her repeatedly, and it didn't work.

    House of the Dragon

    so I watched preston jacobs epi 6 commentary. and.. so.. some? Targaryen's are immune to dragonfire? I'm very confused on this now. why would they have ceremony of burning the dead, if some are immune to dragon fire? was it even dragon fire, or just regular fire they are immune to? does...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    M&M is probably the Mouth of Sauron. Sauron is a shapeshifter, so could be.. but 99% sure Halbrand is Sauron, and Girl-glad helping him out is supposed to be her big comeuppance with all this girl boss energy.

    watching this now. Matt mercer is half assing it, and taking me out of the show with this character. just do the same cowboy he always does. gus just sounding like Gus as well.

    Return to Monkey Island

    The lucasarts adventure games all have a similar feel. but many that aren't lucasarts are VERY differant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LucasArts_adventure_games In this case, yes, full throttle is fairly similar to Monkey island. Grim fandango and Sam and max in particular. Lucasarts...

    Free Guy (2020)

    got to this now. this is rough. I wish movies like this would be put more effort into being "realistic". What I mean by this is like, when the devs try to find the "hacker", and they log into the game to chase him down in game to stop him.. this movie would hit harder if the real world...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    sounds like you pulled a muscle. not exactly the same as throwing out the back. food poisoning is usually pretty quick. when you say bbq the day before, you mean, that night, then 3am is the next day? or, a full day prior? does sound like food poisoning, which will keep you from sleeping for...

    Cyberpunk: Edgerunners

    Its an interesting question. Lovecraftian stories. cyberpunk as you note. vampire, goth. etc. Bleak dystopias with no happy endings. they are oddly popular. I think its gotten worse in the last 15 years or so. no happy endings. Pyrric at best. They infest video games now too, in no small...

    AI images

    shit already is. did you not see the rittenhouse trial and how utterly incompetent the judges and lawyers were with the images? how even just digitally resizing an image changes it. do you think they would have been able to actually tell if the image was outright doctored fully?

    Babylon 5

    B5 is a heck of alot more soap opera then modern shows. Most of it, is not like modern stuff which has a more set narrative start to finish. Way more episodic drama then what you might expect these days. PS. Jadzia Dax predates B5 by a month. deep space 9 beat b5 to a trans character even...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I hope they show the origin of him smoking weed. and the origin of him making fire works. and the origin of where he got the wagon he was riding at the start of the movie. oh and the origin of his hat.

    House of the Dragon

    Watching this now. I know its a fantasy world.. but I'm triggered by the butchering of jousting tournament rules and etiquette. Tripping a horse would be against the rules. disqualify you, and possibly get you de-knighted. Also, the fight to the death brawl. what? why the fuck would rich...

    Samaritan (2022)

    yeah. I've seen much worse budget "superhero" stuff.. but this is not amazing. 5 or 6/10 maybe. Some issues: Sly being too old, and looking goofy. the main villain is not NEARLY flushed out enough. A good villain is required. And this guy... no powers. no plan. no nothing. All we get is...

    House of the Dragon

    Are you thinking the one used to attempt to kill Bran? that was Petyr Baelish's. who lied to Caitlyn saying belonged to Tyrion Lannister. so this show is actually decent? lots of youtubers are pretty ok on it.

    She-Hulk

    sucking the dick of some third rate e-celeb is fucking retarded in any show. Its amateur beyond belief for the crew, writer/director. Doubly insane they did it so early in the show. You are still setting things up, and trying to get the audience hooked. but you think THIS is the best thing...

    Saints Row 5

    I don't know how anyone can defend this. Watched a streamer. Literally every single sync melee kill was glitched. punching/stabbing air. Half the time the camera would flip out. Shooting someone with a gun within 5ft is garbage. nearly impossible to aim at someone close. enemy npcs just...

    Moonbreaker -- collectible minis tactics game

    look closer. the minis are static. the spin, twirl, shake, etc to mimic movement. and have energy effects from guns, etc, but don't actually move. I suppose the caveat is speed, etc. mtg:arena. Having to watch an animation play out, slows things down. it somehow feels less annoying with...

    Moonbreaker -- collectible minis tactics game

    I really cant even comprehend the idea of digital mini painting. No interest in playing with mini's in a digital space as well. hey, remember Battlechess in 1988.. remember what made it cool and fun? it fucking animated the chess pieces.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I think that answer is greatly influenced by how much you played warband. Theres aspects of warband not in this game, and theirs people that do nothing but complain about that, regardless of what actually is this one, or is new. Theres been huge changes and reworks since it first released...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    eh, theres a bunch of valid reasons to have lots of time in a game, and not recommend it. Early access. I have a number of games with high times played, due to EA. and starting them over and over as they get more content. And often these EA games NEVER come around. they might go unfinished...

    Tribes of Midgard (diablo-like survival PS5/PC)

    Haven't tried it yet, but that seems to be the idea. to make "survival mode" act like a more classical survival building game like others. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/858820?emclan=103582791465002035&emgid=3368148492288843855 old survival mode just acted like a variant on "saga"...
