    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I do not know the immediate answer to your question, but after killing the BAWS on the Transport Helicopter mission (like the 4th selectable or something) my log updated with this. So I am x1 out of I don't know how many needed in that 3rd category. So possibly not a 1-for-1 kill to unlock system.

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Interesting. I switched to controller at the start but that may be worth checking out. My main complaint was using Tab but that can be remapped?

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Not understanding the difficulty with the tutorial boss. He killed me 1st time bc I had no idea what he does and it was 5 minutes in to learning the game. I just hid behind a wall, popped up and zoomed to the cockpit and slashy slashy copter go crashy. Rinse and repeat. Like most Souls bosses...

    Snow White (2024)

    Was I the only one that assumed Astro was like 43 in 1980? This is shocking news to me.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I think for me, by about book 8? I got more comfortable with the shifts in writing. The POVs shift so much and the atmosphere of the Legions and the missions change so much that the difference in style didn’t hit as hard. If it were all continuous the whole way through it likely would have been...

    Amazing, such a nostalgia hit. Just last year I was playing this soundtrack remembering back to this release. So many F-you puzzles in this though. Haha

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I paused my re-read for a bit because I had read Wool by Hugh Howey years ago and finally got around to watching the first episode of the TV series. After not remembering a single solitary thing about what I was watching I checked my Kindle and learned that Sand is what I read and never even...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I’ll play it on Gamepass and then come here and post about how I don’t “get” these games but understand that some people love them. Then delete it and visit this thread three times a year wondering if I should give it another shot but ultimately deciding it isn’t worth it. Got a plan, at least.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    It is in the Holo house area, little pond out front. I got the 1,000,000 rod last night. Haven’t been able to get the achievement for 100 combo though, always lose it around 90. Irritating me. You can sell the fish you catch for sand and then convert sand in to Coins to spend. No idea if it is...

    I have an Asus TUF that I purchased last year that is used for work and am 100% satisfied with. Just recently purchased the Alienware for work/gaming and really love it. The Samsung was also highly recommended. The only thing I would say is that I had the same reaction after purchasing...

    Oh shit, that's great. I just paid like $9.99 for Deadhouse Gates because my 1st read through was all paperback.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    Yeah! Take your crap to the SHMUP thread. Besides, everyone knows Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga are the only real shooters! There’s a Steam version, apparently? I spent a lot of time playing the Touhou series and a bunch of other random ones about 8 years ago.

    We started Shrinking tonight and really enjoyed it. About 5 episodes in. Sometimes the writing is just hilarious. The worst thing about the whole show is just how bad and uncomfortable Christa Miller looks. Just stop getting face work done, it doesn’t work and makes chicks look godawful. Derek...

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    I just grabbed it today and during calls spent an hour fishing, walked out with a ton of money and unlocked a bunch of stuff. I'm with you though, initially avoided it b/c no interest in the weeb stuff but after putting some time in tonight it is actually really fun.

    Blue Beetle (2023)

    We saw the most advertisements for it during Peacock or something commercials. Almost every break was a Blue Beetle preview that we couldn't fast forward through.

    Corner Office (2022)

    Just finished this. This is an odd movie. It is sort of like listening to Patrick Bateman's internal monologue about business cards crossed with some Being John Malkovich, crossed with something else. It was good if this is your thing. The oddness reminded me of The Lobster a little, or...

    Yeah I almost made a comment about how tacky that was and the cheap humor. But at this point I don't expect anything less. They could have done the whole thing without sticking Linus's smug and condescending mea culpa at the end. He couldn't even keep from rolling his eyes a few times while...

    Yeah, that is a good point. I think by 40 minutes in I had forgotten that brief intro part showing that comment. *edit: I think where I was coming from is that spending 20m going over that isn't as useful as highlighting the other shady stuff and opens GN up for a rebuttal of every time GN has...

    I had to skip past the first 23 minutes of picking apart issues with their graphs or testing. I get that it is wrong and may be indicative of more systemic issues with procedures, deadlines, and pressures, but it all seemed a bit petty and made me ask "why?" The ethical concerns and other...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    A couple of nights ago wrapped up GotM. Not a whole lot to add to how much enjoyment I had. One thing did stand out, one line actually. When Paran finds Lorn in the alley after her run in with Blues and later Meese and Irilta. Eriksen writes: “Her armor removed, she proved light in his arms.”...

    Been doing a lot of grinding out data entry and reports for work so have pretty much kept bad horror movies on rotation in a side window. Started off with: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20601506/ Pretty terrible. 1.9/10 is REALLY bad but it probably isn't better than 3.5/10. But it did start...

    Don't think I ever posted any updates to any projects I've been trying to close out after these last two months have kept me from doing anything. It also turns out I may have a torn left bicep that was masked / hidden from all the spine pain and medication I was on. So now working through...

    Going to sell off my Eluktronics Max 15. Nothing wrong with it really, just replaced it a few months back with a smaller Thinkpad X1 that works better for traveling on the road. I don't need the 3080 or clunky power supply and more limited battery life while in meetings. I just use an Asus...

    Limitless was also strange in that I think the TV Show was better than the movie, if I remember. Been a long time since watching though.

    Mario Movie… It wasn’t bad, I guess, just extremely underwhelming for what a big Mario movie could have been. Thought it was way worse than Lego Movie or Wreck it Ralph. 6.5/10 ?

    Well that sucks. Almost finished with GotM re-read. Really happy about it and can't imagine doing this as a first timer or what I was thinking at the time. It really makes more sense and isn't boring or ruined by knowing future events. Took me a bit longer b/c of some later work nights and...

    any non predatory child games?

    That Cut the Rope or whatever game with the Frog also does that pretty well, and was mentioned above. There's an occasional ad but our 5 year old knows how to skip it and just laugh at the silly frog.
