    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    "Don't worry, this is only alpha, they will fix it before release!!!" The talent trees should be easier to fix than past xpac systems that were already a failure in those Alphas, but ActiBliz no longer gets the benefit of the doubt.

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    Yea, no idea how to best remove, on a large scale, grass/plants you don't want without dumping a bunch of chemicals on it. I would assume that it is growing on neighboring properties, so you would need a replacement grass that can out compete it, when you plant new stuff. May have to also take...

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    Don't get on the lawn upkeep treadmill, if you can help it. All the grass sold in big box stores are going to require irrigation and chemicals for weeds and all that shit. It's a bunch of bullshit pushed to keep you paying. Billion dollar industry and all that. Order some native seed if you...

    Not sure this is something to be proud of, chief. It reads like "My mom wiped my ass all the way up until my wife took over." Congrats on never learning an adult "skill," I guess. Did you not go to college? If you lived at home the whole time, your mom still did your washing and put the sheets...

    Wat? Fitted sheets have always had this technology, but I guess people were too dumb to figure it out or had turrable parents & grandparents that didn't teach them how to properly make a bed? The tag always goes in the bottom right corner. All the fitted sheets I have owned have the tag on the...

    Palmer (2021)

    So disappointing, I was convinced this was about the epic journey of Robert Palmer. P.S. Are you trying to step on Ossoi's toes by starting a thread for a shitty movie before he does? I guess that makes the video even more relevant for you and Ossoi.

    House of the Dragon

    Sorry, I forgot to include the German Simpsons guy saying "That's the joke." Maybe there will be more magic, with an army of faceless men running around murderizing everyone. The men women of the north are all wargs that ride direwolves and see through the eyes of hawks. All the evil Lannisters...

    House of the Dragon

    Didn't you watch GoT? The Night King was made by the Children of the Forest in the Third Age to fight Smaug, and since this is the second age, he is not around yet. Also, he was originally white (before he was turned blue) in GoT, so...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That's a new one. I thought it was some marketing bullshit and you were just talking about getting a new set of mufflers for your car; until I looked it up. Seems like an unnecessary part for a performance loadout, but I guess it's probably on all VW turbo engines or something? Who doesn't like...

    My bad, I was speed reading the thread while watching TV, so I read it as a comparison between the twos perceived beauty after reading your post about Smith's part being androgynous.

    Wat? People think that dude is attractive? When he was announced as the next Doctor Who, I lost what little interest I had left due to his weird fucking face.

    Google Drive is the fastest/easiest free hosting service out there and there were ways to get around the download caps (Mega may be as fast, but not as easy).

    Highlander

    A traditional handle doesn't look that hard to make. The main thing would be getting the wrapping correct. It might just take a couple times or ten to get something that passes muster. A good fitting pommel, guard, collars, and scabbard, on the other hand, is probably extremely difficult to...

    Durable? as in you want to hit shit with them? Used to work in a knife store while in high school and we kept those swords in stock; all of them were for show only. They will fall apart if you try to hit things with them very much (how many whacks before destruction depends on the target). Had...

    Fallout 4

    Outside of the mediocre small and unneeded extra chapters/locations that Beamdog added, the Enhanced Editions for Baulder's Gate and Planescape were mostly just taking what modders already did, and putting it into a single neat package that they could resell. I like Fallout 1 and 2 as they are...

    Fallout 4

    For New Vegas, there are so many mods, one should be able to find enough updates to make it tolerable. The problem, like with most mods, is just finding the ones you want to use and work well together. That process alone can take hours; so I usually try to find some mod pack lists (with reviews...

    Even if I wanted to watch this, AMC can fuck right off with their mid season breaks. After Better Call Saul is done, I am done with them. If they make another show that is good, I will stream it years after it is done.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I can live with high settings, so, maybe I should give a try then. It sounds like most the problems from release have been ironed out too. According to SteamDB, there have been a lot of 50% off sales, so it probably wont go much lower until they release a big DLC, and nothing like that is even...

    Total War: Warhammer

    If you have WH 1 and 2 on Steam it should allow you to choose the Mortal Empires map when you go to start a new game in WH2. If that's the case, then yea, Mortal Empires is probably the easiest to jump into. Just try to follow the objectives for short and long game wins. Lizardmen, High Elves...

    I guess you are unlucky with bugs. I have spent 90% of my time running mods in 1165 combined hours of WH 1/2 and I don't recall many bugs (there were probably some, but not frustrating enough to sear in an everlasting memory). The only broke game I can vaguely remember is when Wulfrik was...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Currently, the best game experience is probably one of the free lords or paid DLC races on the Warhammer 2 Vortex map. I really liked the Tomb Kings, but that's a bit pricy. So the next two easiest races are Lizardmen and High Elves. The Free DLC for them are (it has been some time, but I...

    Total War: Warhammer

    I don't really get why people are resistant to using mods. They don't break cheaves, and there are mods that do exactly this already. The one I saw (from months ago) sets the line at tier 3 settlements and regional capitals as the only maps that get siege battles. Additionally, mods like Steel...
