    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    FTFY! Are any of those building worth a shit (outside Xmog and mounts), by the time you can get them, regardless? The portal to Orbos is nice, but all it saves is a couple loading screens over the Dalaran hearth (so, hardly worth the time investment). I wonder if anyone, outside of ActiBliz...

    The Mandalorian

    This is an argument where everyone can make a case for being right. It all depends on how you want to define famous (Chuk's original post was about "before he was famous"). Arnold won his first professional bodybuilding competition in 1968 (Mr. Universe). In 1969 he won Mr. Universe again, and...

    Coming 2 America (2021)

    Void sums it up nicely. Not great, but not terrible. The first movie was one of the best comedies ever made, so if you are going in with those kind of expectations, your going to have a bad time.

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    One room cave in? I don't remember seeing any crypts with just 1 room. There was no sludge in the way that you could use the pick on? I also found tin was plentiful on the shores of the dark forests of my starting island, and didn't spend close the amount of time on it as I did on copper.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    Edit: I read Malkav's post wrong, thinking he meant Mitsota was responsible for all the wokeness. My bad. Still, those writers have a better chance of working on the game again, now, than they did if Hardsuit had found a project for them to be moved too. Lets hope the new team Paradox gives...

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    Brian Mitsoda (narrative lead) and Ka'ai Cluney (creative director) have not made any statements on why they were fired. I would assume they are under a NDA. Even the other high ranking writer (cant remember her name) that quit because those two got fired is not saying anything about it...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    You can go pretty high, right off the bat. With the right support. Below is my first longhouse, made at the start of the game using 0 mods. I was close to a bunch of trees, when I started, so it was just a lot of chopping. In the picture, the round logs in the middle were originally square...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    The game seems to be built with a group of 4 to 6 people in mind, all pooling together. Solo play is a HUGE amount of farming and travel time. Things just get more time intensive as you go, but the variety of things to collect and use also increases. For example, you will need to farm more and...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Correct, before I started digging, that area in the screenshot looked like all the other copper nodes I found (just 10 to 20 percent showing above ground). The 2 other nodes were about the same size.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    From a melee dps perspective, the need/ability for the tank to kite shit in high keys is just dumb, and a major reason I quit this xpac so early. The first M+10 I did, in the first weeks that M+ was released, was with a ~200 ilevel DK tank that had to kite or die. We barely failed it, and after...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Mining into a dirt wall naturally puts dirt under your feet, if you are deep enough. You can start in a 30 foot deep hole, and move forward after every hit, into the wall, and eventually it will make a ramp out (as long as the pick has durability) Tin is only that one little rock on the shore...

    Cheat Engine is easier to use imo. Games like these hold my interest for maybe 30 hours. After that, I use cheat engine to juice a few more out of it.

    Sea Serpents spawn in the "Ocean" at night or during a storm. If you stay close to shore, you wont get serpents. Just don't get too close to "plains" or skeeter might eat ya. @Daidraco The Lox breeding is NYI (they wont reproduce), but I imagine it will be for the same reason you want pigs and...

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    That's just what the patriarchy wants you to think. The Bad Batch moniker is due to them all identifying as women, and the show is actually about fighting the Sith Patriarchy that is trying to suppress trans rights.

    Total War: Warhammer

    You can fix it with mods. There are diplomacy cheat mods that let you confederate by paying a little gold. First though, go find your save game (in c:\users\[user name here]\%AppData%\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Warhammer 2\save_games) and make a back-up, so you can restore it, if you break...

    I don't remember if this has been linked here before but this guy is doing some good work. "Jim Browning" sends scammers his spyware, when they access his virtual machine. He usually owns their network, shortly after. Windows support scam: This is video of a $2 to $5 million a year...

    Weird, must only be Houston then. When I lived there in 98, my neighbors (and their parents, who were 50+), that have never left the Greater Houston area, were calling the ice storm, the worst snow storm they have ever seen. It was hilarious. I have lived in Austin, Houston, and DFW since then...

    I bet we would be surprised by the amount of home owners that don't know how to turn off their water main, even though YouTube probably has 1000 instructional videos on it. I would wager 90% of life long renters have no idea there is a main shut off, at all. We, of course, do have one, and ours...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    They do seem to be releasing to EA slower than expected, but we are also coming off the big holiday slowdown. Also, who knows where the buggy internal build is at. All the other classes could be +50% done, but too many problems to push to EA. Druid was probably the hardest class to implement...

    According to nextdoor and other sources, there were a bunch of people on the same Co-op that were getting blackouts (some for over 12 hours). That said, there was a huge discrepancy between what the companies website was reporting (30,000+), and what poweroutage.us was reporting (less than 1000).

    I am on co-op power in the DFW area and had zero minutes of outage, but the co-op outage map was showing up to 30% of their customers (residences) were without power. I watched the map on Monday, and it looked like they were pretty good about cycling people every 2 hours. If I was to guess why...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    It is a traditional beta early access. They make it clear that they are not going to release acts like some shitty chapter every 3 months game. In the previous Divinity games, the early access was used as a feedback tool to make the game better, that they gave to people who supported them on...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Most of the Kingmaker builds will work fine in Wrath, but they did add some talents to supplement classes using armor (like armor focus) so there should be many more options for building a variety of OP characters (hopefully) for the hardest difficulties. Also, with all the new archtypes, there...

    Car ?'s

    Look at Toyota Tacoma and Nissan Titans too. Last I did some research on them (~10 years ago), they were higher rated by customers and "impartial reviewers" (like consumer reports) alike. They also had a higher percent of the vehicle parts made in the USA. Maybe find an RV enthusiast website...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    I reran the beginning of the game and there was no choice to refuse the pre-mythic stuff you find. I loaded an old game shortly before getting the first mythic point, and I didn't see a way to refuse it, either. So, I will have to file it under not yet implemented, or I missed something in...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Strange. I guess there was some related dialog at the end of the tutorial. So maybe you have to pick a different dialog choice at the start, and it only forces you to go to mythic 3 if you already have at least mythic 1 leveled. Ill run though the beginning again and check.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Currently, you don't have a choice. In order to proceed, to open a door near the end of chapter 2, you must level up to Mythic 3. I think there is going to be a bunch of quests and kingdom things associated with it (I saw a few things in chapter 3 related to it, but I didn't start them, and the...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    I'm not sure what the mythic point pool is, but that tutorial may have been NYI (there are some blank ones). If it is used to cast abilities, then no. Each ability in the game has its own per day usage amount as far as I can see. Like the Angel ability Close to the Heavens is 3 per day +1 every...

    The Angel (1/3): The Angel gets almost a full good clerics spell book. Combined with the Mythic Abilities that increase the duration of your 5+ minute spells, this class can be a nice buff bot. Put it on a Brown Fur Arcanist, and they become a godly buff bot (although I think you can mostly...
