Yes. The first episode started a bit slow, but went nowhere where I expected, leaving me wanting to continue watching. The second two twist what you think is happening around some in interesting ways. I'm looking forward to the rest of it.

Well, that was certainly not what I was expecting from the first episode. That is an admirably hardcore approach to problem solving ;p There may be some subtle hints that Mother is not 100% open and honest there :oops:

It's just skin to skin contact apparently, remember the chick tries to get him to wear the suit to avoid it. Overall I though this was pretty good. It was more technically impressive than enjoyable for me though, so not up to the level of Inception or the Prestige. It's certainly not like...

I actually like the dad. I am not sure why, he's obviously a huge asshole and a terrible father, but something about his no-nonsense take-no-bullshit approach entertains me.

I am glad to see He Who Fights is back, the new setting has some entertaining possibilities and I like what I see so far.

Pretty much everything is known about the first tier of the expansion. There's a lot of stuff missing, but the basic mechanics and outlines of things are all there. Given development pipelines, it's pretty much impossible to change course at this point - reworking major systems or creating a...

Someone coming into the game now isn't going to be able to do 5 mask runs. There's some benefit in gearing up before expansion, but not much. At ilvl 400 ( 78 'new' ilvl ) - depending on class, some quest mobs and rares are dangerous, and it takes a while to chew through 'kill X' quests. At...

You can't even complete the night fae introduction quest on beta at the moment. ( For the third time mind you, they've already fixed it and subsequently rebroken it twice ). Everything is covered in 'Insert cool cinematic here' and 'Awesome in game event happens now' banners, Torghast loot is...

Kovacs was wearing a black sleeve in Broken Angels, so you can't blame that one on wokeness, it's faithful to the book. Whether Mackey did a good job or not is another issue entirely. I didn't think S2 was all that bad, but you can't lead with S1 of tits and ultraviolence and then go pg13 for...

The original parable about the goose that lays golden eggs is about the drawbacks of short term thinking vs long term thinking. I don't know how cows wandered into it ( confusion about the biblical golden calf maybe ? ), but there's no implication that there's only one of them - if you have...

Be fair, this is clearly a fantastic much sought after feature which will absolutely not be instantly switched off in raids due to the fps hit.

It's... not very funny.

I found the first half of ep1 a bit boring, second half was good though, will watch more.

I was curious so: https://starcitizen.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_ship_and_vehicle_prices Survey says : over Yikes.

Metrics are always a management thing, not a developer thing. In fairness though, you need *some* way of judging how much people like things to know what to make more of. If you ignore that aspect completely in favor of your 'vision' you end up with Brad McQuaid, which has it's own problems. I...

"Another apocalypse ? Is it Vanya again ?" "Hey !" "Come on, it's always Vanya"

I'd probably never take them off ;p

You can create a level 50 premade of any race/class combo so that's not an issue.

The talent stays for the same reasons Momentum still exists; so the people that think they are hot shit can delude themselves, and so that the dev whose baby it is doesn't get all butthurt.

Still on my list for one of the best ways to do a plot twist. When you see the reveal and then suddenly everything beforehand suddenly makes so much more sense.

Beta is too unfinished to tell at the moment, but probably. There's still a chance to fix some pants-on-head retarded decisions like locked in covenants and soulbinds not changing per spec, but they seem pretty attached to them, along with the 'build the same legendary 10 times' idea. Bastion...

implies otherwise.

This show only wishes that Sackhoff's acting was the worst thing about it.

Finished up new game+ on this. Overall great fun, and a good recommendation. I was a bit iffy on monsters to start with, but after some experimentation, they are actually super strong. Even average monster builds are competitive with all but the strongest human builds, and strong builds like...

Story wise I like it, but I really dislike the art style of the bots. Hopefully they stay on the other side mostly, the art is just so much more appealing.

The time travel shown in this series is different from Back to the Future in literally every way other than it being time travel ?!

Covenants confuse me - the idea is inherently extremely difficult to balance - even if the abilities were literally 'shoot red laser for 50 damage' or 'shoot green laser for 50 damage', they are probably going to throw in some boss with 5 mechanics all of which are red on red against a red...

Well yes, but the alternative is that he has no value to them at all, and they don't care if he dies regardless. This is the case for pretty much the entirety of the world population, whinging about it makes you look stupid and entitled.

Sometimes what's inside the outer layer is much more important than what the outer layer is made of.

Oh sorry, I think I was unclear. I meant from if the rules were an actual game that people played - having a skill that is 'absorb x% of lifetime experience from a target' in a game where people 'spend' experience on stuff would be so laughably broken. It can work in a story for the same reason...

I've seen a variety of 5120x1440 but none for x2160 - I don't think there will be any gaming ones available until the newer hdmi/dp standards are more common - 4k@10bit@120hz is already more bandwidth than either dp1.4 or hdmi 2.0 can handle.

Deca-Dence : Now *that* is what I call a rocket punch ;p I approve of this first episode in a variety of ways.

Short update this time around due to broken fingers. Only web serials for this one, caught up on a few long ones. Delve - Senescent Soul You know how in Isekai/Litrpg stories the ultra nerd main character has an instant and complete 180 in personality to be an action hero jock, with any...

This covers a lot of what springs to my mind with a dark tone. Some other possibilities in no particular order - Psycho-Pass, Made in Abyss, 'Now and Then, Here and There ', Mirai Nikki, Mnemosyne, Death Note, Shinsekai Yori, Darker than Black, Elfen Lied Note that both Madoka and Made in...

I dunno that I buy in on your prematurely cynical take on this one*, but Wool would make a fucking great show with a decent budget. * Sure, it might be just as shit as you predict, but person of interest and westworld s1 are enough for me give it a few episodes on it's own merits.

I had mixed feelings. The intro was fine, then the first half was a bunch of random nonsense with wildly overexaggerated animation. The tournament itself was good though.

The biggest mystery was never revealed though! How the fuck did the Origin get laid so often, dude is ugly as sin and creepier than Eppstein ;p Did he bring his loopers with him when he did ? Did they just stand there watching ? 8) Jokes aside, the series ended satisfyingly, wrapping...

Apparently the early difficulty was my fault for lack of attention. Patrols are much higher level than the story battles. It got a lot easier a few battles in. I'm about halfway through and liking it a lot. Tame mechanic should be 100% at 1hp, not 65% though - taunting and stalling out for...

Holy shit I suck at this game. One day I will get through a fight without fatalities, but today is not that day ;p
