    Squid Game

    It got better, but still by the end, it just carried no impact for me until the final scene, which had me somewhat interested in what could come next - and yet not, because the draw of this show for me ultimately was the shock and violence of the first season and the collective reaction in the...

    Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

    There's some weird plot stuff that left me not very happy with it when I saw it last week, but literally everyone else i was there with enjoyed it. It's hard to go wrong w/ dinosaurs on a big screen, they look great for the most part.

    Project Hail Mary

    I've listened to the audio book a dozen times while doing other things since first listening to it a few months ago, it's so good. 2nd only to RC Bray's The Martian narration for me. Disappointing they gave away so much, wish it would have ended at 'object approaching' at about 2:13 and not...

    Dune Awakening

    Fun weekend. Made my first ornithopter. Built a garage for it. Forgot to put the pentashield on the roof. Logged in several hours later to a brand new ornithopter beat to shit. Made a rad suit and wandered over to Sheol not knowing exactly how radiation works. Abruptly died, had to travel...

    I don't recall intrusive console-itis, but the UI did get some attention post-launch to improve it. I've beaten maybe a dozen games in as many years as an adult with awful gaming ADD. Cyberpunk is one of those games. It's fucking pretty and it was decently fun to play, even before they were...

    Squid Game

    I'm through 3 episodes, and I just don't care about any of this anymore. At least with The Bear I could fall back on just watching actors that I really like do their thing, but I'm just so tired of watching Lee Jung-jae run around in extreme anger / disappointment / whatever. It's like...

    Tempest Rising - PC (RTS)

    One of my friends always has a moment in nearly every match where he's suddenly yelling in Discord 'no, fire, no, why are you going there, stop!' and it's fucking hilarious. COHO3 wasn't in good shape when it launched, but we have a lot of fun with it now 3-4 player comp stomping hard and...

    Dune Awakening

    I've got a couple of casuals playing with me, they just barely got to my first base in Western Vermillius. I just started my 2nd base in Jamal Eifrit Al-gharb this morning, and I'm still pre-aluminum, 45 hours in. I ran around and finished the main quest to get death stills yesterday, but...

    The Bear

    It feels like for about 90% of this show more happens on a season of Seinfeld than what happens with this restaurant staff. That being said, the show is kind of like it's entrees, I have no business judging or even eating the fancy shit they make, but I appreciate the quality and craftmanship...

    It's one I've always liked the look of but it's always been at a price that prevented me from impulse buying it. This game is in that category for me too.

    I feel ya man. In the past month I've been diagnosed w/ arthritis in my neck, mild carpel tunnel in both wrists, obstructive sleep apnea and the glasses it was determined i needed for the first time in my life in November feel woefully inadequate, like my eyes have gotten used to them and...

    Dune Awakening

    How did you guys progress base-wise across the map? I married the first open patch I could see basically, and think it's time to establish at least a mining outpost west/ northwest as I need more and more steel / crystal. Or should I be thinking bigger? I recognize making my base way down...

    Dune Awakening

    If you've had one, you have the schematic already to make it. So hit tab, go to crafting at the top, and 20 salvaged metal to make another (per wiki - Construction Tool | Dune Awakening Wiki) Oh, not tab, I for inventory or whatever you've used to open your UI, then crafting, and it'll be...

    Dune Awakening

    Think this is what likely happened, i deleted a column on the floor below it that was... close? to it. Then had the problem shortly after. Kinda dumb, since when you go to delete it directly you get a big warning, but you can delete it accidentally by doing this. Went and paid my taxes for...

    Xbox Megathread

    Yes and no. The announced handheld platform / devices won't play console-only games unless you stream them, and will only play games normally available via the PC store, as I understand it. So for example EA's NHL games and College Football won't be playable, because they're only on consoles...

    The bar was so low when it came out it actually ended up doing better than some expected I think, it even stayed at mixed for a bit after release before finally tipping into mostly negative.

    Dune Awakening

    So weird, was putzing around with the structure of my base and suddenly it said i needed to build the console again. I never destroyed it. Placed another down, aproximately where I thought it needed to go. Nope, was off by a bit, so needed to rebuild it to change the footprint. THEN it warns...

    Dune Awakening

    Do you stand any chance of dodging it really or does it turn pretty quickly? I'd think that if it just setup in a large straight line it'd be easier to avoid if you didn't freak out or continue in the same trajectory. Also, how fucked am I here? I went exploring, and missed my waypoint and...

    Dune Awakening

    Made it 19 hours, a worm finally got me. Saw a ship crash not too far from my base, in SW Western Vermillus... even ran to it with my soft step boots or whatever instead of the bike. No dice.

    Snagged The Ascent, thanks. Last played Ancestor's Legacy 7 years ago now... I remember being disappointed with the map sizes, troop limits, etc. Was a fun game but that made it a no-go for my group of comp-stomping friends. Did the same, my dupes: Just Die Already - 548YL-K4A46-KFWQC Brunch...

    Well yeah, because it's not 'Borderlands 4 CE' like he and Wario64 called it. Man, gamers like to be outraged over some dumb shit. It's effectively just a merch bundle releasing alongside the game, people are being dumb trying to call it what it's not. Other games have done this already, this...

    The Life of Chuck (2025)

    Saw this tonight as part of AMC's Unseen program. Really enjoyed it. It will be hit or miss with people probably, and as a theater full of people who didn't know what they were about to watch, when the credits rolled and you saw Stephen King's name you could feel the collective 'oh, that makes...

    Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025)

    I'm glad I went to see it in the theater, fun action set pieces, and probably will go see more movies in DBOX seats. That being said, was the 3rd or 4th best MI movie to me, I probably liked the prior few more than this one. I just watched them all over the past couple weeks, 3 through 6 for...

    Tempest Rising - PC (RTS)

    I have it, it's pretty but haven't played it a lot. If they don't increase multiplayer beyond 2v2 it'll be really disappointing. Want to see at least 4v4 so my group can get in some comp stomps once it's on a decent sale. Otherwise most of them aren't going to touch it, especially at $40...
