It also makes sense in that planet, and presumably much of the rest of the sector, doesn't belong to the Empire - sure you can pay your soldiers with fund transfer to their accounts, but local resources and suppliers are more of a problem - what incentive to they have to take payment into a bank...

Chainsaw Man - not bad, will probably watch more. Reincarnated as Sword - awfully generic, but still entertaining. The eyes on the sword look kind of goofy is my main complaint. Eminence - ehhh, it seems a bit tryhard ( 'In my spare time after school I merged all of Earth's martial arts into...

That was certainly unexpected as far as finales go. I give credit for originality though, hitting Kevin with some zingers about movie structure, heh.

Weeell, not so much - roguelike, on the other hand...

The main problem with that approach is the interconnect latency and bandwidth is waaaaaaaaay behind what's being used on graphics cards at the moment. It'd be like plugging your system RAM in via a USB port. Potentially fixable with a lot of work, but hampered by the problem that AMD and Nvidia...

Banging your clone probably doesn't count as incest anyway. Definitely not legally, absolutely not medically ( not like you are going to have deformed kids ), only question is morally. I suspect people getting worked up about it realized that their answer would be 'yes' if the situation ever...

It'd be easy for Bezos to make you a millionaire, why hasn't he ? He's certainly made some people who work for him millionaires, why are they special ? ;p

D&D is actually strictly built around exactly that concept, so it's traditional ! ;p For Wrath specifically though, pure dps isn't really where you want to evaluate from - on high difficulty you flat out cannot survive without the mage buffs and CC - your unbuffed melee is going to wander into...

...... that is literally exactly what the word means ?

I got this one as a gift recently and quite liked it - played through it to completion with all achieves plus perfect full endless win. Roughly 40 hours worth. It's uh, roguelike tower defense mixed with a deck building card game. You start with a command center which you an upgrade and buy...

Surely not, that wouldn't break the story per se, but it really wouldn't make a lot of sense - given the retro-pub aesthetic, maybe it's Mike Evans ?

Yeah, Vanguard had many flaws, but class design was not one of them.

Does it matter if their kids make them watch it ? It worked out pretty well for Pixar.

This is actually pretty good, kept me interested anyway. I was surprised that they put some effort into their technobabble, although the crushingly wrong definition of 0-day being a plot point was painful. No-one is expecting a TV show to have the level of care that Mr Robot had, but google...

I find the bar is actually pretty high for $10-$20 indie bracket if you aren't after cutting edge graphics - that bracket includes stuff like Terraria, Dyson Sphere Program and Across the Obelisk. The other hommlike one was Songs of Conquest...

This was... ok ? Didn't annoy me, but didn't really grab me, kind of bland overall.

This could turn it around for... Oh wait.

You looked at this and thought - 'Yeah, 26 seems reasonable' ?

Reading that link is interesting and doesn't actually support what you are saying at all. Apparently they are paid with 25% of the income from property holdings *that they fully own*, with the other 75% going to the treasury in exchange for not paying taxes. So, not paying taxes is 'true', if...

Ah good memories. "as I stride through the Gates of Hell, carrying your severed head on a pike !" "Stride ?" "... All right then, roll. Roll through the gates of Hell !"

Gave this a try given it's open beta at the moment, more or less. Didn't grab me at all, I think this one is a pass from me.

Dawn of the Void - a LitRPG Apocalypse | Royal Road This one is surprisingly good. I ignored it for a while because apocalypse litrpg are a dime a dozen, but this one plays out quite differently - it's much more about the apocalypse part than the litrpg part.

I got around to giving this one a go - it's not bad, but the AI is too braindead for skirmish, and the campaign provides challenge of the 'surprise ! a fully levelled hero and army just materialised out of nowhere in your backlines !', or 'your opponent starts with 3 fully levelled cities -...

Not bad, only got one literal lol out of it, but that's still pretty good ;p

Looking at that link, I think if anyone is cherry picking there it's you - that's a shitload of four legged dragon pictures. It's a stupid argument anyway, it's not like there's a canonical answer to the appearance of a mythical creature. Probably telling that it's more interesting than...

This was pretty good overall I think. Great cinematography and set design, solid acting pretty much all around, story interesting enough to make me want to watch the next episode. GoT like attention to detail on sets, props etc - you can certainly see where they spent the money. To my surprise...

I'm confused, are you using a House of the Dragon trailer to prove that the Game of Thrones s1 trailers had dragons in them, or did you think he was saying that no-one was expecting dragons in a show about dragons called House of the Dragon ?

Aw come on, being a parody of itself is what made SR3 great - 'A fucking TIGER?!?!'

No, no there were not.

The trailer appears to show a standard "spray-paint" tool being used on different parts of the models, as well as some entirely unpainted ones. So it *looks* like you can fully paint it yourself if you want to. If I play it, it will be all about pre-painted configurations though, I have zero...

The madness modifiers are a mixed bag - lots of things that just make it harder or more annoying. I don't think I'd ever turn Random Combats off though, the mini bosses add a lot to the game. You kinda get a feel for it anyway - if it's too easy and you are still interested in playing, start...

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2022/08/saints-row-game-review-an-open-world-mess-beyond-redemption/ It stood out a lot because the reviewer usually does very in-depth reviews that are generally pretty boring even when he really likes something.

I was amused, one reviewer I ran across has, as far as I know, never given anything a negative review before and he absolutely savaged this game. It's a shame, SR3 was just so good, to have the series end in a trainwreck is just depressing.

You actually watched Black Panther right ?

You can have any real person play more than one character in the party.

It's not fucked up - the new perk trees are much deeper and more varied, with better customization options. It's just grumbling because with the old one you just ticked all the ones that were pre-assigned to your 'class' and there was zero thought or choice required, now you actually have to...

It seemed.. fine ? Didn't really wow me, the cgi is kind of distracting, but self-aware and happy to make fun of itself and other MCU movies. ( "I've..... got no good explanation for that" ) Mostly it was more amusing than funny though, other than the end-credit scene which was genuinely funny.

Some of it worked for the comedy though, like Bane's censorship. Bane is definitely my favorite character on the show anyway, I lol'ed at the whole thing with his credit card.

What does this actually *mean* ? 2 years of Genshin content will get you a smaller number of the slot machine items than the 'initial release' of ToF ? That seems.. implausible. Or do you mean it would get you a smaller percentage of the total amount of collectible content available in each...

The latter seems more likely - gotta pump those launch numbers, next FY revenues are somebody else's problem.
