    Life extension- let’s play EQ1 and keep socking into 2100

    You gonna run SK on the new server? Not sure we've ever actually played at the same time outside of maybe a launch or two.

    Oh damn, that many chapters are out? I'd like to read the whole thing but I'm not sure where I'll find the 90 hours I'd need for it. Shame the creator didn't get to see it through to the end, same thing happened with the Dragonball Super manga which I assume is also going to be drawn to a close...

    Car Insurance / Home Insurance

    Surprised Geico's score is so low, wow. Always thought they were a pretty solid insurance company. Had them for many years until this week. On Monday I'll need to make some phone calls / get some quotes and get something squared away for insurance, will probably start with the top of this list...

    What are you playing?

    Souls games as a Guts cosplay, super fun (and the first time I've ever run the series with a Str build). After this, Stellar Blade, EQ TLP, Elden Ring DLC in back to back months. Though the Souls stuff will probably take me right up through ER, especially if I include Bloodborne.

    Yeah, like, when I read all that I just go "But why?" It seems like they basically just wimped out of showing something remotely graphic.

    I never got the allure of Sleeper loot to begin with (outside of selling them for large krono profits I guess). SoD is a decent weapon I suppose, for a short time. Give me a Primal weap to bandolier in and I'm good on that zone.

    Yeah, even in the early-era Mischief I played (classic/kunark) there was so much loot that most things were basically worthless. When FBSS can drop from any mob (edit: any named) that's like 38ish, there are lots of FBSSes. If one's never played on this kind of server before and plans to farm...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I like that idea too in the way it resembles Terminator (incidentally the Terminator Genisys series was going to be a multiverse arc if it had been made as planned). Seph hunting down Aerith in various timelines is a pretty interesting concept. That brings me back to my biggest issue with the...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    That was a real good episode. I feel like @pysek should watch it because a master race creating mud-people to be their slaves 30,000+ years ago and trying to wipe out or at least reduce the more rebellious / intelligent types of mud-people seems to have a lot of synergy with the modern world...

    Pics plx. Had a GF with a high libido for many years (incidentally including the years where I drank alcohol), maybe that also contributed to my not aging as fast.

    Life extension- let’s play EQ1 and keep socking into 2100

    Anecdotally, I think it probably did. I didn't drink much of anything until I was 26, then drank regularly yet socially, and then completely ceased drinking at 32. Now I'm 40 and almost nobody thinks I'm over age 28 unless they see me close-up in some good light (then they might say...low to mid...

    When does it become convoluted bullshit? In the manga? Looks like the 90's show is like...Volumes 3 through 9 of the manga or something like that, and it's up to 35 volumes now. Show really is just the intro. I assume it's ending soon from where it is now.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    TBH I feel like this game has a multiverse storyline that nobody really asked for. I get it just fine but it's so played-out. Like they saw what Marvel was haphazardly building with Kang the Conqueror and decided to make their own version of it.

    Just recently watched the Berserk series (90's version) for the first time. What a tremendous series... until you get to the end and realize it was just the intro to a much larger story and the show ends right when the "real story" begins. It's basically a ten-hour infomercial for the manga...

    Car Insurance / Home Insurance

    So my car insurance company Geico unceremoniously dropped me without warning because I missed a letter from them asking if I ever did rideshare (so they could jack up my rates, of course). I call them today like "I have before, but not in a while, sorry I missed a mail from you, can we just...

    Any advice on equipment that resembles Guts from Berserk? Mainly need a weapon that resembles his giant sword. Gonna try a Guts playthrough for the DLC. Been tooling around with Guts playthroughs in some of the older games. Demon Souls has the Dragon Bone Smasher, Dark Souls has the Greatsword...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah back in Souls 2 I noticed that I was better off sticking to the back of a boss' foot than trying to get distance on them. One of the many things you have to learn with Soulsborne that are different from how you play everything else. Most of the difficulty people have getting into this...

    -30 costumes available at launch Damn, now we're talking, I'm sure it'll have a bunch of looks I like more than the default. They're probably gonna all be microtransactions though. -No microtransactions Wait what? Well this just moved back to being a "buy at launch" for me.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I think Cloud can be taken out of the main battle party once you beat the game and are going back through with chapter select. However he's always the lead character in the field no matter what, which is pretty lame for anyone hoping to have Tifa in the lead and look at her all the time instead...

    The 1-60 grind is gonna be real hard-core, yeah. Only had to do that once before, on Selo, and that was with both Velious/Luclin unlocked and I think we had an EXP bonus that weekend as well. Here, no Velks, no Grieg, no Acrylia, etc etc. Chardok and Seb are gonna be people's options and 55-60...

    Oh damn, it's two random? Yeah one normal and one random would be $$$. Gonna be harder to get a specific drop focused on. Like prenerf Guise is gonna probably take a lot more camping of nameds of the right level and getting other unneeded drops. Then again with everything droppable, maybe...

    A few thoughts: -Glad they're doing a Mischief, but they're gonna want an overflow server right away. -Kunark start is a good call and will liven things up quite a bit. The launch is gonna be a hell of a grind, time to re-up my Adderall script. -Tormax is DOA and it's a shame they wasted such...

    As the one raid SK/puller who doesn't use MQ or SEQ and has to compete regardless, I'm fine if they go balls to the wall with anti-cheat code to even things out.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah I still like using the RoB and even dual-wielding it (too bad I can't get two during the DLC replay since it's NG-only). Corpse Plier is a lot like Mortal Draw in Sekiro, which is similarly outstanding.

    JRPGs

    Agreed. At this point I really want to do some Souls strength builds now that I've seen Berserk. Kinda given up on keeping up with new games. Eiyuden is something I've wanted for years but we'll see when I even get around to that, might just have to live vicariously through other people's posts.

    JRPGs

    I really wanted to give UO a whirl and had it on my agenda, but it looks too time-consuming. Still glad there's a modern Ogre Battle. Will probably check it out eventually when time permits. "Smash or pass" probably depends on how much free time you've got.

    Probably a 1/100 shot but are you the similar-named iksar SK from 2000 Karana (Terris-Thule maybe)? Guy stood up for me a lot when I was a dumb kid making dumb kid mistakes. Oh yeah, the PoP signet. That's just one of 3 multi-part tradeskill quests required to even start the Artisan's Prize...

    I always really liked this particular dragon model. It's wirey and creepy, perfect for somebody like Trakanon or Zlandicar. And yeah all of the "major" dragons in Kunark/Velious have this model except Phara Dar. Later in SoD you go back in time and see Trakanon in his original form and he's...

    Watched Berserk (90's series) over the last few Mondays with friends and just wrapped it up tonight. Wow, what an incredible story. And it ends right when it gets good, too.

    Alright that's pretty hot. I'll shut up about Eve now. Reminds me of how the sexy dress in Elden Ring also significantly increased your aggro radius because it drew a lot more attention from mobs. Which the game didn't tell you. It's a stealth difficulty spike. So the first time I played the...
