Cyclone feels like garbage in early levels. Not very far in yet, but the change is pretty striking. That is all. Also, I hate summoners, but necros are hilarious at the moment! I prefer to use a life/armor dude to do all the stupid lab stuff first so I will see how cyclone works as the gem...

Can you be a little more coherent, because this is rambling and confusing as fuck. I am unsure why you are in knots over people criticizing the author for making bank on lies about his travails during WWII, but I am genuinely interested in your viewpoint. I don't think anyone resents him for...

The cast is certainly significant. But if it has a bunch of terrible shit happening to animals and a young boy, I will simply skip this. Too sensitive to that shit in my dotage to appreciate it as any sort of "art".

Okay now I want to see this.

One of my favorite movies of all time - in a "that's horrible" amazing kind of way. The scene in the cab is amaze-balls. I watched "Killing of a Sacred Deer" last night, and although the performances were top notch I thought the movie was just slightly too slow paced to keep my attention. The...

I recently put about 130 hours into it duo'ing with a pal on a low pop PvE server over about 2 months. I enjoyed the entire progression, the crafting, the capturing and use of thralls, the various "boss' fights, etc. The lore was decent, the various locations and their history. The gear was...

I am in the same boat. My only summoner build was SRS which is more like a delayed-attack ranged skill. My only miner was Arc Miner when that was actually meta. I did not like either much. I may try a more conventional skelly/zombie build just to see the new stuff but def not as primary. I...

Soooooooo......based on those hilarious tweets (along side the usual "it's all so tiresome"), the fact that he is white trumps (pun intended) mental illness on the virtue stack for the theme of criticism of this movie? I mirror the comment that if the main character was anything but white these...

I watched that trailer, sighed out loud and, in my head, said to myself "Well, shit, I guess I am going to watch this at some point and be at least mildly entertained, just like all the rest since T2. Just like Alien Covenant and Prometheus. But I am still disappointed."

Okay they were clear I am currently over half way through book 2 and Paul has complete regret that the Jihad is being done in his name. The book spends a lot of time emphasizing Paul's incredible powers in direct opposition to his impotence with respect to the Jihad and the masses worship of...

I watched a bunch of this over lunch today and the bit he did on Louis CK blowing his load on his stomach had me actually crying at my desk. I give Netflix grudging kudos for this special, because it was clearly one of the first things in recent memory put up that has any kind of...

I added this to my bottomless unplayed game list in Steam as well, sight unseen, purely based on reviews and the feel that it has shades of Starsector and Darkest Dungeon. Will try out this weekend. Still haven't been able to come to grips with Starsector yet. I hate getting older, my...

Man Joel Edgerton has his dick in everything of late. He co-wrote that too. Also, as an aside, that kid needs to stop missing leg day. If he's supposed to be Muad'dib (is he?) he needs some meat. I just started Book 2. I've been away from the series for a while, and away from Sci-Fi for...

Gods of Egypt would also like a word with you.

Ditto. Handsome hoverboard (Edit - rocket boots, right) wolf-alien warrior though. COME ON. TOO GOOD TO FAIL. I want to know what part of the Wachowski's transition this disaster of a movie speaks to? Cloud Atlas was a pretentious, convoluted mess as well. Hated it like disease - there...

Okay, as 50-ish year old, this franchise is, of course, special to me. My thoughts echo all that was said on the last several pages, and well really, for the last couple of decades. But I would still watch and enjoy if they could just find it in themselves to make A GOOD FUCKING MOVIE. It is...

So I'm done with this league now - I deleted my level 80 ED/Contagion character to preserve slots. Kept the King Cyclone guy though, of course. So I moved on last night to load up Last Epoch, and what is the first thing I did? Created a cyclone-equivalent character. BWahahahahahaha. I have...

lol truth - they are basically turning minions into ranged attack build clear speed/effectiveness. And here we sit with melee changes being Cyclone or GTFO and stick your multistrike up your bunghole. But, moving on, nothing to see here. Seriously, if they nerf the shit out of Cyclone (and I...

Yeah, hate on it if you want, but there is no question that the first movie is truly iconic. You can really tell how iconic by the extent of influence it had on later movies with the bullet-time, slo-mo fighting stuff. Keanu was so bad he was good, how can we not love that guy? I was going to...

The Endless is that low budget sci-fi indie gem that makes Netflix/any extensive movie database worthwhile - then you realize you have seen them all and only shit remains. Great concept incredibly well done, and I have not yet seen the aforementioned sister movie which centers on the two guys...

I agree with almost all of this. However, I have a couple of games calling my name (Outward, KingdomCome Deliverance, Last Epoch to name a few, and maybe Remnant now) so I am thinking I do another game starting this week and by the time I am done the new League will be a couple weeks in and I...

Tower defense, one of my least favorite genres. The Adventures of Van Helsing 2 opened with a big Tower Defense section and I noped and uninstalled it immediately - what I had to do in 1 was already too much and the second game STARTED with it. ! suppose I could just ignore it and enjoy the...

Heeeeeeeeey, who's got two thumbs and finally killed Shaper? This guy! In retrospect, the fight is pretty easy, it is just understanding the mechanics and having enough dps so that the arena is not filled with floor trash. I did an attempt last week on Standard as I was screwing around with a...

Does anyone outside of a small niche market give two shits about this IP anymore? People still cream in their pants at the release of WoW classic, but I think that nostalgia fades quickly outside of a (I also think relatively small) core audience. I went back to EQ a couple of years ago and...

So I just recently read all Lovecraft's work, and in retrospect you can see his influence through SO MUCH horror entertainment. Clearly the Annihilation series was greatly influenced by this story, but the guy took it to more modern technical places with all the genetic mixing and he also...

Right. I have Option 4 (all 5 follow-ups to Dune, I am pleasantly surprised to say, not just 4 as previously noted) on my bookshelf. Ill be honest, I am not sure how far I made it in the past. Right now I am struggling to finish reading the major works of HP Lovecraft (it gets pretty fucking...

The series itself generally fades as the scope of the story expands. With the first book, its focus exclusively on Dune itself makes it a little more accessible to the masses. It gets freaky from there. I always run out of steam after a couple of books. I have tried several times. I have...

Oswald was starting to become a real fucking SJW cuck but this puts a little currency back into his wallet for me. I've enjoyed his comedy over the years, it is a little more cerebral and literary by times, but I have enjoyed it for the most part. His presence on MST3000 was token, because he...

Because, in my personal opinion, D2 represents the pinnacle of loot system design of any ARPG - and loot is why I play. The combination of random drops with boss runs. Set items. Runewords. I loved it all. I am such an ARPG loot nerd that I used to keep track of the rare/legendary/set...

Until that fucking stealth section. That game went from one of the best at the time to one of the worst.

It is, quite literally, just a no-trade league with a separate leaderboard. You get lots of dopes asking for increased drop rates and the like, but it was released by GGG primarily because there was a VERY popular independent (of GGG) movement tracking rankings of people who did not trade...

I read Bandwagon's summary as was like - Yeah, no, that sounds stupid. But that trailer looks hilarious. I look at these movies like a series of funny meme moments rather than a cohesive whole, so I look forward to clips of the best parts. I still haven't brought myself to watch Sausage...

SSF is okay as long as you don't mind the grind. I have never traded lo' these many years, and as a result tend to quit occasionally in frustration and come back fresh in weeks/months. I have played 91 cyclone and 80 ED/Cont builds this league and it has not been bad. Also, as a side note, it...

Just to illustrate what a front-line, A+ gamer I have become in my dotage, I did not realize I had to put minions into the buildings to gain the benefit until I watched a recent review. For some reason I just thought they were primarily global passives and just plowed on. Yeah, I am the...

Spawning for the first time as a Dark Elf in Innoruk, immediately falling into the water and drowning and then spawning outside in the dark forest, not knowing where I was, what was going on. But in awe that I was in a living, breathing 3D world populated by other players as well as NPCs. It...

I love Reservoir Dogs but it was almost ruined by Tim Roth for me - I hate that whiny little shit. I know it's all personal perspective but Roth kills movies for me. On the other hand, I have a special place in my heart for Michael Madsen who is a B- to C actor at best but is always great in a...

Dammit I even saw that and didn't bother to edit it, and you made me regret it.

How in the fuck is Hillary Swank in this movie? Did she get hooked on meth and need a paycheck? And how can this not be a 99% versus 1% typical schlock. Revenge against the rich. Cathartic perhaps, but pretty cliche. Will fastforward on Netflix for the death scenes.

Yeah I tried to connect it like that, but that seems like such empty, sorry revenge compared to what she did to him. Just didn't seem like enough. Edit - like he lost his "kid" and wife in the story, easy parallel. But what do the two/three guys represent? He only had one guy to be "mad" at...

Gah I am so torn. This actually looks like it might be good, but DeNiro has turned into such a fucking cocknozzle that I am finding it difficult to be excited about seeing him in a good movie. So challenge accepted, Scorsese - make a good movie and I may even respect DeNiro in a good role.
