    The E3 2021 Thread

    Basically, outside of Microsoft (plus the "Onnn Dayyyy Ooonnnne on GamePass") the rest of the show is meh, in term of games. (I still think Devolver is the most meta good showing)

    And almost nobody is going to respect that, and you'll have dozens of streams anyway.

    Loki

    And then Loki and Wanda fuck reality sideways, and you get Doctor Strange 2 as the multiverse that the promo video warns about finally occurs.

    Loki

    His simple existence is a crime. That's what he was charged by the judge: being a variant.

    Loved this presentation. "Look at how we modeled even the little cactus spines (that you are never going to see while playing anyway)"

    Ah, Blade Runner 2049 then. (if you haven't watched it, the MC has a such a virtual GF and yes he hires a prostitute to use as an overlay for the projection for him to get touchy-feely with her)

    Trust the International Standards Organization to focus on what's truly important: Online game terminology! https://www.ansi.org/news/standards-news/all-news/2021/04/4-19-21-online-game-terminology-ansi-seeks-comments Looks like all is there.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes. And we would have the survivors in a wandering fleet of spacegoat ships trying to find an habitable world to settle on, and you'd be a trainee on one of those, taking missions and shit on potential planets. (if you're unsure what I'm talking about, that's PSO2, by the way)

    Love the "okay, we're taking a break, we all do a couple dungeons to gear up, then we finish Karazhan in two hours, since nobody's going to be keyed yet."

    Okay, 32k$ sounds more "reasonable". But LOL at 4k$ just for one of every type of box.

    MTG thread

    People playing will use normal cards. No sense in paying a premium for some fancy extended art foil that curls like pringles when you can get a perfectly normal rare-slash-mythic for half the price or even less. That shit is for collectors/speculators/trust fund babies.

    Well, the boosters content change every expansion or so...

    MTG thread

    If I remember right my Rudy videos, draft boosters = just normal cards, with a chance of foil, set boosters = normal cards with one guaranteed foil, plus a chance of reprint of older cards ("the list"), collector boosters = the ones with all foil, alternate frame, alternate art, full art, etc.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I mean, they are still the only country in the world that has multiple papers every year showing that acupuncture "works" (every study done in other countries has concluded it to be undistinguishable from placebo).

    Office and gaming chairs

    I think it's the point. I have cervical spondylosis, and the difference between home Embody (yes, I splurged for one) and my office chair at work is night and day. The office one looks all nice and comfy, but I end up with more aches at the end of the day vs when I'm working from home.

    Ashes of Creation

    Since we just got reminded this is a full world PvP game, I assume you deal with "locking" by killing the person who engaged the mob, then you end stealing its loot once he's dead.

    You don't need hackers. I've been managing computer security in highly sought-after IP situations for a few years and we never got hacked. What we got was the intern with a fistful of small USB keys copying everything on shared drives that wasn't secured (don't get me started on server shares...

    Lots of people have been complaining about this. I paid only once for his patreon, and while I'm not entirely regretting it (since I did enjoy reading the series, so paying the author is a good thing), I'm definitively not paying again for a very long time (I'm never paying for the advance...

    I think the Chinese advertised plans to build that kind of thins using automated rovers already. Although they're still significantly behind, even if I'm pretty sure they're copying all they can from SpaceX.
