Surprisingly, Victoria was actually around for most of that. It's a fair point though, WW1/WW2 is closer but the tech base doesn't really have a real world equivalent, given the Edwina massacre was a aircraft carrier group and that was decades before the start of the story. I spose Victorian...

Just caught up on Vigor Mortis. I really like this one. Um, hard to describe - fantasy world which is made up of a bunch of giant floating islands apparently being levitated by an eldritch abomination called the Mistwatcher, which is worshipped as a god by a lot of people. In extreme...

Yeah, it was ok. Odenkirk is kind of a dick though, think John Wick if his wife lived and they had a happy marriage and then he started shit with the russians coz he was bored. The choreography is also pretty pedestrian in comparison.

The least plausible thing in this movie about giant monsters and the earth being hollow was probably the civil engineering that the evil megacorp got up to 8) In fact, probably the civil engineering that *everyone* got up to - how the fuck did they get that many girders to skull island ? Who...

New stories: Dragon Hack - by the Threadbare guy, this is set in the same world (sort of?) but prior to the cataclysm and the sundering of Cylvania. Generica is (mostly) just a game at this point, and it's about the original bunch of real world players as much as the game world. It entirely...

This was really good. A bit of an indictment of amazon prime though, in that I would not have even known it existed without this thread - the homepage and recommendations is just a bunch of shit that I have already seen and random nonsense like australian football documentaries.

Yes it is. Arguing otherwise is nonsensical - the alliance hall of fame didn't even fill until a few weeks ago. There are still only 1800 guilds worldwide across both factions that have even killed mythic sludgefist.

This game is pretty fun. Played through as the humans, doing a run as the swamp people at the moment. The swamp marauders are completely absurd tanks despite having no armor, and their stacking %health bleeds explode big hp stuff surprisingly quickly. Hammers in general aren't much use on low...

The opening sequence was glorious fast and furious style utter nonsense, with a ludicrously elaborate plan which made no sense on any level and STILL the least plausible thing in it was the idea that they would give the slightest fuck about invading Syrian airspace ;p Plausibility of Falcon...

Anyone got a good layout for a critical photon farm? I just seem to end up with a random mess of crap that doesn't line up in any way and it really annoys me. It works, but what is a working layout without good symmetry right ? ;p

It's a nice thought, but Captain Marvel made more money than all of the Expendables AND all of the John Wicks combined.

Doh, that will make life considerably easier. You'd think that would be something you'd put in the description of the railgun, it's kind of important info ;p

Wait, am I missing something ? How do you use railguns to build the sphere ? I thought they could only be used for the swarm.

I read the first of the LN ( it covers up to ep 6 of the anime ) after watching. I was surprised by how close the spider is to the anime given it's a fairly decent sized book, but the human kids timeline made more sense - you get various snippets of them growing up interspersed with the...

At some point you will ask yourself, surely I have enough sorters ? The answer is No. No, you do not ;p

Is it on the starting planet ? If it is, it spends a lot of time blocked from sphere rings by the gas giant that it's orbiting.

I thought the first ep was pretty good. Very different tone from the other arrowverse shows. Their concerns about the kids seemed pretty true to life, but you'd have to think that having kids in the first place was wildly irresponsible. I'm going to assume it was an accident ;p

I agree with this completely, but it's probably worth noting that the first play through is a lot of value. I'm 50ish hours in and nowhere near done. You could certainly do it a lot faster by looking up optimised builds and build orders and cheatsheets, but where is the fun in that ? As it...

Yeah, this is one of the best new ones I've seen in a while. Just generally wholesome.

Tearing up my initial stuff is amusing - 'where does this go ?' 'what the actual fuck ? how did this even work?' My greatest enemy is the 3d sphere - having a row of 3 belts running through assemblers be unable to continue because they bend into each other to match terrain drives me nuts.

It wouldn't be complete unless it has one of the good guys go the wrong way, and then have his teammates tell him he's fucking trash and should kill himself IRL.

In fairness, quite a lot happens in book 1. It's book, uh, 4 I guess ? That you have to watch out for ;p

Individual punishment rather than collective works better for that kind of thing. Like what they did with volcanic, where getting hit launches you into the air and interrupts dps. For a lot of those people, the link between 'mob x casting a spell' and 'tank suddenly dies' isn't clear. A better...

I'm partway through this one at the moment, a bit clumsy writing wise, but fun and entertaining read. I offer a thumbs up. Also partway through 'Two Worlds', which is different from the usual RR fare - it's milsf basically, following various military personnel in different branches in a...

That makes a lot of sense actually, you should suggest that to them 8)

I read the first two chapters of that one, but I've found it a bit hard going so far, as it's basically a blizzard of unfamiliar names, clans, factions, groups, politics, ratings, types, cultivation levels etc. Not helped by a weird quirk where the author is writing in third person but...

In that same argument he continues that if they did settle on the planets, their kids would be adapted for normal gravity and then they wouldn't be Belters anymore. So, it's not evolutionary adaptions, it's just muscular etc development due to microgravity.

It's not like he didn't have it coming 8) I was also entertained at the end by Paul basically admitting that he can't discuss things with him because he knows he's going to lose the argument somehow.

How do you do this ? I have tried changing my labs to research, but they just complain about lack of matrix. Is there something else you need to build or research before you can do that ?

This game is good. One thing that bugs me - how do you reverse the direction on conveyor belts ? I did it once by accident on a huge conveyor and ended up having to rebuild it because I couldn't work it out.

I found this one.. inoffensive. Didn't really excite me, but was decent and watchable.

As far as unsubstantiated rumors go, this one is really kind of content free. What does that quote even *mean* ? On a scale of 'Fuck it, we're filming in Manhattan, noone will notice' through to 'YOU CAN'T FILM HERE ! THOSE ARE REDWOODS THERE ARE NO REDWOODS IN MIDDLE EARTH ! REEEEEE!', what...

I liked this a lot - Chmilenko's other series is pretty good, but I found this book to be much better overall.

It doesn't look THAT ba... oh wait, yes it does.

This is good stuff. Obvious Re:Zero inspiration, but that is kind of a given from the name I guess.

Redo of Healer was ok I guess, didn't really grab me. I agree that Jobless is the clear winner so far.

Fehotep is great, and Khelt is obviously the place you want to live ;p Ironic given that Khelt is the most totalitarian dictatorship that could conceivably exist, given that Fehotep is not only in charge of everything, he's literally both the military AND the industry of the entire country.

I liked the first episode of 'So I'm a Spider', was kind of amusing having the MC ponder philosophical and existential issues, and then shrug it off as 'eh, who cares'. Reminds me of Chrysalis.

Yes. Entertaining story, awful writing ( not as bad as azerite healer, but still pretty bad ). The storyline changes considerably for the better, IMO, during the school tournament arc, not sure where that is chapter wise, but it's quite a different story after that.
