    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    It's been out in Alpha for 10 years now. :) There's something to play for sure, but it's pretty bare bone and repetitive. it's definitely a sandbox where you make your own fun. Some people do play it a lot and have tons of player organized activities. It's also very buggy. I have played it on...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I haven’t played in ages but still kinda follow what’s happening to it. I agree that the new expansion seems really good, like where they going with the last few blancs patch where they tried to add new cards to archetype that could use it.

    Halo

    I enjoyed the show for the most part. Definitely not what I expected but it was an ok sci-if show. The Kwan storyline sucked and it a strange that there was no payoff for it not even a bad one. She contributed nothing to the show. Halsey was by far the best character in the show and the...

    Marvel Snap (CCG by ex-Hearthstone devs)

    A new CCG by ex-Heartstones dev Ben Brodie and others. Looks strange, small hand(12 cards), 3 minutes games, simultaneous turns.

    The Netflix Thread

    I just cancelled this and a few other streaming services, not so because of quality but because there’s too many and it’s getting expansive. I will rotate subscriptions every few months and binged what they release while I wasn’t subscribe.

    Halo

    I liked this last episode, the actress playing Halsey is stealing the show in my opinion, the character is very well written and she makes her so fucking unlikeable. The way the strings of event played out flowed very naturally and felt credible. I can’t wait to see the final episode. This...

    The Lost City (2022)

    So watched this tonight, not very good. Sandra is still gorgeous.Brad Pitt was great. That’s about it. Pretty sure I will have forgotten everything about it tomorrow morning when I wake up.

    The Man Who Fell to Earth

    So started watching this yesterday and caught up to all 3 episodes released so far. I like Chiwetel Ejiofor in pretty much everything I’ve seen him in, and this is no different. Solid performance on his part and pretty much everyone else too. I’m enjoying it so far, intriguing premise pretty...

    Halo

    Pretty much a waste of an episode. Asian girl storyline just isn’t interesting.

    Moon Knight

    I thought this was a pretty great ending to a pretty good series. Oscar was just amazing all the way through, this might have been some of his work. The back and forth between Marc and Steven was extremely well done, as someone mentioned you can see who is who even without him having to speak...

    Ashes of Creation

    I haven't followed the game much, but I remember that one of the core gameplay loop was that PVE build and grow the Nodes which would eventually be open to attack by PVP players to take over/destroy. If this still remains this way, it's doomed to fail. I don't see how this is viable. PVE player...

    NHL 2021-22 Season - Now A Turner Classic

    That was awesome.

    Halo

    I enjoy the show, as I said before I'm not very familiar with the source material. That said, it's not what I expected, I expected a lot more action and Spartan vs Covenant fighting each other. That said, I really love the world building as someone mostly new to the setting, there's a lot of...

    NHL 2021-22 Season - Now A Turner Classic

    Habs went from the final last year to clinching the last spot. Now, let's hope we get the first pick, but the way this season went we'll slide to 3. :)

    Moon Knight

    So I’m going to quote myself from after the first episode. I still feel exactly the same way, I enjoy the Marc/Steven aspect of the show and the Moon Knight stuff is just a bonus. I really like the episode and finding out about Marc and how Steven came about. Oscar‘s performance obviously is...

    Black Desert

    Yeah, it’s much better now. You can get to 61 pretty quickly now with mostly just questing on a seasonal server, and get TET boss gear when you graduate from seasonal to regular server. There’s also a feature called Timepiece on seasonal where you can turn your seasonal character into a regular...

    NHL 2021-22 Season - Now A Turner Classic

    Guy Lafleur passed away today at 70 after a long battle with cancer. He was one of the greatest to ever play the game. He was so iconic, flowing blond hair while he skated across the ice. R.I.P. Canadiens icon Lafleur dead at 70 - TSN.ca

    The Batman

    To me this is similar to Man of Steel where Superman snaps Zod's neck. Endless debate about it with people saying he had no choice...probably they are right, but the reason he had no choice was because the writer wrote him in a corner like that, something comic book writers avoided doing so...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I enjoyed the campaign, didn't do much of the end game because of all the issue at the start. I'll most likely give the expansion a shot.

    The Batman

    I think it's fine that it's a young Batman and that he isn't the world's greatest detective yet. There's room to grow I get it. My issue is he solved "nothing", prevented "nothing", and probably the worse offense in my book is that nothing he did affected the Riddler's plan in any ways. It...

    Moon Knight

    Well that was unexpected. I like the episode, everything inside the tomb was pretty well done and tense. I dislike Steven more as the shows goes on though, even though he realizes that Marc might be better suited for some things like keeping Layla safe, he refuses to relinquish control of the...

    NHL 2021-22 Season - Now A Turner Classic

    Poor Carey Price, miss almost the entire season and the team welcomes him back by not scoring a single goal in each of his first 2 starts. :)

    The Batman

    I have mixed feelings about this. It gets an A for doing Batman as a detective which is my favorite version of Batman, but it gets a D in execution. He‘s outsmarted by Riddle from start to finish, basically he’s a detective that prevents nothing from happening, bad execution on what should...

    Moon Knight

    i agree last episode was not as good as previous ones, wasn’t a fan of the gods and how they were introduced. I did like seeing Konshu used godly powers to create an eclipse and turn the sky back into what it looks like in the past. They are leaning full on supernatural with Moon Knight and not...

    Halo

    I’m enjoying the show, even if it’s fairly slow paced. The world building is interesting and generally very well done. I do wish there was more action but it’s still enjoyable. I’m curious to see where they are going with John and the girl spartan who removed her chip as I don’t see this going...

    The Netflix Thread

    I'm still subbed to all the services that I watch, but I am seriously considering dropping a few and basically rotating between them every few months and binge watching what they released while I wasn't subbed. For one thing there are so many of them now, and second some subscription are...

    Twitch.tv

    The thing about this stuff is that it's not necessarily new. When I was in high school over 35 years ago, guys would warn other guys to stay away from a girl they dated because she was a nutjob. The difference today is that it's done on social media, in this case a girl had a bad experience...

    Black Desert

    Well I’m now 59, and heading into Valencia. Got my purified water and Star Anise Tea to combat the desert sickness, got a compass to get around. Fun times ahead, I like the desert mechanics. I‘ve been too busy though to do my gathering, so still months from getting a ship.

    All the Old Knives (2022)

    I just finished this, solid performance, decent enough thriller but very slow paced. That said, I didn’t enjoy the reveal either. I thought it was predictable except for the motivation which felt weak to me.

    Halo

    I enjoyed episode 3, again lots of exposition but it’s interesting. The production value are quite high helping the feel of the show. I‘m curious to see how the relashionship between John and Cortana will evolve, remember I’m not super familiar with the Halo franchise. Right now she feels like...

    Moon Knight

    My theory on the multiple personality disorder is that it’s a recent thing. I don’t think he’s been that way all of his life. Marc Spector is the real personality. The reason for this is that Layla is married to Marc, is aware of Moon Knight persona but not of Steven. So I think that recently...

    Black Desert

    So expansion, new class and new season started yesterday. I made a Drakania like millions of others. The interesting part was that you get to choose if you want to start in the new expansion or do the regular story which I thought was neat. I chose the new expansion so I could experience the...

    Tiny Tina's Wonderlands

    I enjoyed the campaign, had a lot of funny moments, lots, of fun side quests. The way they made fun of d&d was great. That said, zero desire to play the end game.

    Moon Knight

    Ok, episode was pretty good. Isaac still killing it and the dual personality is really interesting. I have so many question about it, is it something that always been there since he’s a child or recent development, who is the dominant personality. I have my theory on this though, curious to...

    Moonfall (2022)

    So my hope for this was dumb fun…it was certainly dumb, but not very fun. Usually these type of movies have really good pacing that keep you engaged throughout so you too busy to think too much about how dumb they are, but this had terrible pacing way too much exposition leaving you with tons...

    Halo

    Ok second episode was a lot of talking and setting stuff up but very little happening. Not good but not bad…we’ll see if there is a payoff to any of this. Still interested to see where it’s going but hopefully gets moving sooner than later.

    All things Brandon Sanderson

    He's kickstarting the publishing aspect, not the writing or ideas. Basically the cost of printing, storage, shipping etc... I wonder if we'll find out how much of that money he ends up with after paying for everything.

    Moon Knight

    Ok, I was hyped for this and I feel it delivered. The interesting part for me was that at some point I didn’t even care about the super hero aspect of the show. I was just genuinely invested in Steven Grant mental issues, and how fucked up he was, Moon Knight just ended up feeling like a bonus...
