    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Giant barbarian seems pointless, since you already have Berserker thrower builds which are already OP as hell. I think my next playthrough will be a Hexadin.

    Wait until you get the Earth Myrmidon form. Also, you can easily break this game by stacking AC. Once you hit ~32 AC nothing can hit you. Spells of course can still land if you fail savings throws.

    The Last of Us

    Why anyone is subscribing to any of this shit blows my mind. Do you not know how to use a computer?

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Our engineering team recently got trained in SAFe Agile. We’ve been doing agile for a while, but our new director pushed for SAFe because our feature planning was pretty weak—think vague feature definitions, mostly due to product owners and marketers not digging deep enough. That led to...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Why is anyone a Nintendo "fan"? Reminds me of sports enthusiasts that continue to support their chosen team even though they fucking suck.

    Watched a subclass overview. Honestly, they mostly seem lame.

    Black Mirror

    I actually haven't watched this since, when?... whatever season the Trek parody episode was in. First episode of this season I felt was fucking stupid. Sure, I understand what they're getting at, but framing it like a streaming service was too ridiculous.

    Right, you can just agree to everything and it doesn't change the outcome. "Here! Take the artifact! Sure! I'll kill the Dream Visitor, Vlaketh!". Doesn't impact anything as far as I'm aware.

    Reacher

    I enjoyed the season. It's really not the type of show to think too hard about. Big guy kicking ass and not giving a fuck. Fine with me.

    Are there any specific ones you’d like to highlight? The only mods I’ve bothered to install are QoL improvements. I haven’t been particularly interested in new subclasses or overpowered items or cheats.

    Daredevil: Born Again

    It's mostly boring imo.

    The White Lotus

    Didn't realize that was Arnie's son.

    Daredevil: Born Again

    Someone remind me ... who the fuck is Adam? And yeah big man beating the shit out of a weak and starved prisoner.

    That one female gnome always dies, but you can save all the rest without wiping out the joint.

    House of the Dragon

    I have an idea! -- we'll sneak you in as a nun! Next scene: hundreds of miles away, sneaked in as a nun successfully! Also, another instance of retardery -- an assassin could've easily come up and knifed Alicent. Don't these people have bodyguards?

    House of the Dragon

    I see we're back to characters teleporting around the world.

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    All I know is, on IMDB The Acolyte has a 3.something rating and Andor is 8+. Explain that. It's not like viewers are shitting on all Disney Star Wars works.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah that's it. I assume this has been patched?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah my character is like level 250 or something. I used that jump-off-a-cliff exploit to gain an absurd number of runes. I assume I should be able to mow down anything even on NG+ to get to the DLC.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I really want to play this, but man I don't feel like slogging all the way to Mog or whatever his name. I started a NG+ long ago but never progressed that far in.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I reconnected with an old high school friend a few years ago. We've been texting back and forth for a while now, along with his brothers in a group chat. Anyway, I've come to the realization that I can't stand this guy. Have you ever known someone who takes absolutely no interest in anything...

    Were you running 2560x1440 in the game?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Hearing that this game still stutters and hitches on the PC. Has anyone ever tried running this under Linux? Is this possible? Curious if it exhibits the same issue under that OS.

    House of the Dragon

    This was fucking ridiculous. Allowing random rat catchers to freely roam the castle makes no sense. Are you kidding me? The episode was decent until that point, which defies all logic

    The Acolyte

    Truly, this is peak clown world right here.

    I lost interest at the word "diverse".

    The Acolyte

    At this point, I truly wonder if they are intentionally making this shit bad to drum up "engagement" on the interwebs. Like, that's literally how they measure "success" now instead of Nielsen ratings.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Yeah PS5 runs pretty consistently smooth through the entire game. That's one thing I can't stand with PC games is the inconsistent stuttering and lag.

    Because they are hiding the old UI. Windows is like a patchwork of different UI elements now.

    Right. They definitely don't make the bulk of their money from ticket sales.

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    I'm sure this is in the RLM thread, but might as well link it here too: I think movie theaters are going the way of shopping malls. A friend and I used to go to the movies every couple weeks for years. Last movie I saw in the theater was SpiderMan No Way Home.

    I play on a PS5 and it's great. The only knock is that the dial control gets a little cumbersome in the late stages of the game, with so many abilities and items.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    On my second playthrough currently. Created a dwarf sorcerer focused on cold. Lots of fun casting create water then dropping ice storm on a group. There are numerous early items that buff cold damage and effects.

    Yeah, like I mentioned previously, I want a pure tactical dungeon runner. No blabbing.

    I wonder to what extent can people "mod" the game? Will it be possible to add entirely new content, such as areas?

    Playstation 5

    I've played way more of my PS5 than I ever did with the PS4. Even during the early years of the PS4 I was already super sensitive to low frame rates. 30fps cap sucks bigly.

    Yeah, got all excited and it's just one of those telesync things. I don't know why they bother. shit is terrible.
