    Cyberpunk 2077

    That's what I kept reading, but then again, everyone gushes about Witcher 3 and I liked the Witcher 1 & 2 more than the third one (only got through the third game once). So, a few years ago I figured enough time had passed to make a fresh playthrough of it, with all the DLCs, but nope, by the...

    Because that wasn't a saving throw, it was just a plain stat check (I think I have heard Critical Roll DM ask for one before, but forgot the DnD term for it). Also, on your second picture,

    Cyberpunk 2077

    They had to dump resources into fixing their fucked up game first, so that probably took over a year of developer time, alone. The Witcher 3 DLC was pretty much an Xpac of ye olden days length, so maybe this will be the same. Still, I hate most RPG DLCs because they put them in the middle of...

    I saw a post on the BG3 reddit about them last week, from one of the reddit mods (and we know how trustworthy those are). That they were suspected of using bots to do various things on reddit, like down voting anything negative posted about them and upvoting stuff directing to them. I tried to...

    It does sound a bit like that too. I went more old school but defiantly Disney-esque, it gave me Jaffar from Aladdin-ish vibes:

    That's what you get for reading them. I thought they were copy pasta. Bandwagon was actually being original! Also, obviously Lizard Aliens from under the sea (the voice track is a real call into the syndicated Art Bell radio show "Coast to Coast" in the 90s):

    That music is defiantly the best in the game, and probably one of the most memorable in the past 15 years!

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    They have a lot of experience with this engine by now, so I am confident that they are chugging through it. AFAIK, they have not announced a release date yet, so probably 6+ months out still and who knows where their unstable internal build is at. With every game, the best course of action is...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    A few states have/had laws where people could not pump their own gas for the safety of everyone involved, it is a "hazardous" material after all. There are a bunch of videos around the internet of people doing dumb shit at gas stations, so it kinda makes sense, although I am not sure what...

    Some summons in the game are very strong. I didn't use the two undead summoning spells much, but the Necromancy of Thay book's The Planar Angle's smite does some decent damage and the upcasted (to 6) elementals (myrmidon) all have some bonus thing they can do (water can AoE heal, air can AoE...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Amazon warehouse is surprising. I thought they had people standing in their box, while machines go get everything, and camera's count how efficient each person is, but I guess someone has to load/unload the trucks and put them in the robot accessible racks/bins...for now.

    According to the internets, someone official said, shortly after release, that FSR2 was going to be available at the end of August or beginning of October, so yea, it should be in that patch.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yea, I would assume it's not a FedEx, UPS, or Amazon warehouse, but as people are saying on Reddit, maybe the warehouse knew about the thefts, but were waiting until they could hit him with a bigger charge to make it "worth" the police's time. Especially if they are in a jurisdiction where the...

    I am willing to bet that Amazon has cameras everywhere with all the Chinese tracking algos running, so I would be surprised if this dude was able to get away with it since 2020, working in a Amazon warehouse (Edit: thought reddit said 2020, but the first "sold" listing is currently 10/22)...

    Vaguely recall reading that modern vehicle design is heavily hamstrung by aerodynamics in order to chase an ever rising government requirement for better fleet MPG. Electric vehicles wont help any, due to the higher the drag, the lower the range will be on a full charge.

    Party size is 6, like the Pathfinder games. All the companions look like they could be interesting from that video, but I guess we will see, as there were some pathfinder companions that I didn't much care for, personality wise.

    Again, this is just about plot points feeling weak in the way they did them, for the sake of plot armor or to move the plot along in ways that don't fit with Clone Wars or Rebels experiences. If they wanted to focus on Sabine

    Overall found the show sufficient. My largest criticism (that happens in a bunch of shows) is that some events and choice happen in order to allow the plot to continue, not because they make a whole lot of sense. For example: In Clone Wars we see all the Jedi jump from fast flying ships at...

    It would be pretty worthless anywhere out of reach, if the goal is to put out a fire that is going to burn you alive (or give you enough time to break free). Unfortunately then you run into crowding issues where the extinguisher is taking up leg room on the passenger side. For the case above, I...

    The mountain pass is part of act 2 and you most certainly can go back to the mountain pass after entering the shadowlands through the Grimforge. You must not have explored the whole map in the shadow-cursed lands, or you initiated the end of Act 2 before doing so. The "back door" entrance
