Two thumbs down on the Arden Movie/TV Scale. :emoji_thumbsdown::emoji_thumbsdown: Overwritten, underacted, with plot holes you can drive a mack truck through. I actually like kiernan shipka and think she's a pretty good actress, but this show is a good example of how poor direction and...

Doing "show and tell" demos for the general public takes a surprising amount of time and effort. They would be smarter to focus 100% of their time and resources on the game itself. If the game is good when you are ready for alpha and beta, that's all the hype and press you need. If it isn't...

What if it was a group of NPC thieves instead of just one? And the tower is surrounded by guards and militia but instead of the civilians inside the tower having fled, what if they are being held hostage? You could have the PCs outgunned and outnumbered so they have to use wits and subterfuge...

Gotcha. Was going to say...

Funchess over Boyd and Thomas ..?

Yeah, sounds like your former players played evil alignments. I'm ok with running evil campaigns, but I've found players rarely survive long if the campaign is run right. Few players are actually cunning and ruthless enough to survive a legitimately evil campaign. Those campaigns usually turn...

Was waiting for the fixes to buy this game, but the idea of 10 second loads every 2-3 minutes and especially several times per minute just kills my enthusiasm.

Doing work during load times? Holy Christ, how long are the load times? 10-15 seconds is about as long a load time as is reasonable these days.

From what I've been told, focus item effects have been disabled

From what I gather it was the seafurries dropping way more plat than they should. Kind of a gray area as to if it's "exploiting" by just killing a mob and looting what it drops. You could argue that they thought that's just how this server/client works. You could also argue that they should...

My understanding was that a bug that was exploited for quite a while flooded the economy with plat, devaluing currency altogether. It's been fixed but a lot of the higher level players have a ton of money and consequently haven't needed to sell items. There isn't much for sale and when there...

If the other server is really a Kegz server you don't want to play on it. No offense to the guy, but he has shown he doesn't have the temperament to run a server. Emu is full of guys like that, and you can waste a lot of time investing in characters just to have them lose their shit and...

Great show. Really well done in every sense. I'm really enjoying it.

Explain please

Can't fight stupid- you can only hope to educate.

Trying to skim the thread without getting too many inadvertent spoilers- Is the consensus wait until after a major patch fixes a lot of bugs/balancing issues before starting this?

The other two: Get Shorty Fargo It's hilarious how under the radar Get Shorty is. Easily one of the best shows in recent memory. Two things working against it: 1.They had to be annoying and put it on one of those à la carte networks (AT&T) 2. The name automatically reminds people of the...

Usually annoyed with remakes but for some reason this one doesn't bother me. Maybe it's been long enough since the original or maybe the source material is just good enough to warrant it.

Pace has been annoying for several seasons. It's such a well done show you don't really mind, but a lot of stuff is intentionally dragged out in the way it's shot. A sharp editor could cut every episode down to 20ish minutes of run time without deleting a single scene- just clip and snip the...

Mike isn't good or bad; he's a man with a code. His code isn't quite as simple as a "No women, no children" but he has one. I think it's fair to say that killing a bunch of German engineers who aren't "in the game" just to keep them quiet doesn't really feel consistent with what we have...

Well, maybe not the only reason. Everybody knows, if you want some shit engineered to perfection, get German or Japanese engineers.

For those that played EQ Reborn- any significant differences between this server and that?

So... anyone playing this server?

Anyone have suggestions for dress shirt brand/style? I'm pretty picky about my dress shirts and I have a hard time finding a brand that fits/works well. The fit that usually works best for me would probably be described as "athletic fit." The really slim stuff chokes me to death and I can't...

No, seriously, is Kegz running EQ Reborn? Just rolled a char there and I need to know before spending time leveling.

Wait, Kegz is running the EQ Reborn server?

Fantastic show. Definitely flying under the radar right now. This is going to be one of those shows where in a few years everyone is going to be saying, "how did I miss this?"

That's the only explanation that makes sense to me. Jimmy isn't a great guy, but Chuck was his brother and he spent years taking care of him. No indication he wanted his brother to die. Jimmy was clearly very upset when he learned about Chuck's death, it's not like realizing he caused it...

Pretty thorough write up on Pathfinder 2 for those who are curious, like me: Review: Pathfinder 2 Playtest

Guess this is a good thread to ask- Discovery worth the time to watch? I put it on the back burner and forgot about it. Should I bother?

What are the main differences between old PF and new PF? Any major overhauls, like making it skill-based, or changing major mechanics?

Bro, this is possibly the one thread that still resembles the early foh board years. This is the exact same argument that has going on since 2005, except the word Vanguard has been replaced with the word Pantheon.

According to just about every metric I should love Sopranos. I've been a Gandolfini fan since True Romance, I love the genre, Rome and Deadwood are two of my favorite shows of all time... Yet I still couldn't get into the Sopranos and I can't figure out why. It wasn't bad, it just didn't...

I'm intrigued. Why would it have been better to watch as it was coming out than now?

Other than annoying pvp shit, like zone dancing/plugging, zoning never bothered me- as long as the zone times are fast. I liked having dozens of little microcosms (zones) within the broader game world. Different zones had different feelings- different personalities. I liked being able to run...

My group actually played around with the EQ pnp RPG. I was pretty dubious about it, but it ended up being a blast. The system was well-designed and Norrath makes a surprisingly decent pnp gaming setting. The advantage is that we all knew the setting, so when the GM started describing Felwithe...

You didn't play early EQ if you weren't part of at least one fucked up fear raid that resulted in several hours worth of failed CR attempts and several naked deaths.

My best friend and I actually broke his dad's VCR with this movie when we were kids. His dad was fucking pissed- this was when VCRs were actually pretty expensive. Burned the motor out rewinding, attempting slo-mo, pausing this scene over and over. These were the only tits we had access to...

Lol none of those thing would prevent someone from composing music, but yeah it may very well be a different Nino.
