Well, I think I hit the wall for PoE for a while. Now understand that I am fully aware at how much "gambling" is inherent in PoE's design and philosophy; how much of an rng machine this game has become. But I thought I would do an experiment: I had one T7 and one T8 map not completed on my...

I JUST started playing DayZ and Miscreated because of an Australian youtuber named Stimpee. I am going to play Rust for the first time soon. Bought new headphones with a decent microphone too. I needed anger management and I figure this is a good start. If I can work on raging at pixels...

I will literally watch anything Hugo Weaving is in so I will have to look for it, never heard of it until now. I have not seen Mortal Engines or whatever that recent flop Hugo is in as the bad guy, but I will. I will.

Titan Quest with the original expansion was my second favorite ARPG of all time, second only to D2. I expect I have well into the thousand hours into it. It is, however, a little slow, and there are definitely builds you can really hamstring yourself with and not be able to progress after a...

Why in the fuck would you opt to play anything other than fighting games/Dark Souls/Minecraft clones on PS4 rather than PC? Then again, I am an old man and controllers still feel foreign in my hand to this day, despite playing split screen PS4 Minecraft and Terraria for hours on end...

Well I burned out quick on PoE FLashback so I picked this up and started a single player game to learn the ropes (and the map) before delving into online play. I am liking it so far. Bit overwhelming going into it cold, as I build my house at the edge of the arrival point and it's such a big...

Welp, it took me close to 12 hours to get to maps. I can do less than 10 on an alt but I forgot about the stupid lab stuff you have to redo. I even skipped the non-skill side quests mostly. I realized about half way through what a huge waste of time Abyss was while leveling. But I cannot...

Just last night I watched a viper strike video by that guy that makes server-crashing builds. Be fucked if I can find it now for some weird reason. He basically made infinite poison stacks that had a 15 minute duration. It had no real survivability so he died a lot, but it was basically cast...

How to kick your game right in the fucking gonads in one sentence. How can studios be so obtuse??????

I feel blessed that I am old enough that Super Mario and Sonic came after my childhood so I could give two shits about either franchise. I actually thought that trailer had a couple of funny parts, and for a kids movie looked okay. All you nerds slapping yourself in the balls over this just...

Farming for Oni is the dumbest thing you can do in this game. It is the only thing I make fun of people for in Global, because it is not an accomplishment to waste 12 hours of your time running the intro zone. That being said, I farmed up 2 when it was short, and made a nice MS build with it...

Why is a ginger trans in a woman's shirt doing play videos on Youtube?

Dood, that gameplay and the boss models looked pretty cool. I was originally meh but the more I see, the more excited I get. Especially when they flash the different gun models and skins, it gets my loot juices flowing. I am reservedly excited.

Due to the fact that I have played this game for so many years, I actually find it difficult to leave to play other games. Every time I start a complex game I just sigh and go back to PoE because I've already figured out all the complexity and play it on cruise control. But if I played...

They are, somewhat transparently, moving more and more towards a direct clone of PoE. They started trying new, different stuff, but obvious recent changes are obvious. Couple of real problems I forgot to mention: (1) No mana pots - it is all regen. It gets really fucking annoying in long...

Well, trash me as you may, but I think Chris Wilson is officially out of touch with his game now. The GDC presentation showcased how GGG is chasing quick returns on quick turnaround leagues. I don't have a problem with their business model aside from the speed meta is not necessarily my thing...

I was not a fan of the game all through Alpha, but it is starting to come together. The passive progression is meh but I've heard they are going to implement something more novel later. I appreciate how they have different progression after level 20 to specialize your character. I also like...

I frighteningly resemble this. I bought it on sale sometime last year, maybe played an hour or two. One of those games I WANT to play but never get around to doing so. I watched a couple of videos - spears are front line melee kings are they not?

I kickstarted this game, so I am looking forward to it finally being fleshed out. I realized I am not one to kickstart games, because I have a hard time seeing the forest for the trees at the start.

Perfect timing for this Flashback - I am done with the league (not challenge done - only at 21, just yawn done), and just under 2 weeks to refresh on other games and then jump into the event will be great. I am going to run with Storm Brand again. I liked worb but after doing BV for a couple...

I fucking hate this game right now. It looks good, it feels decent to play control-wise, but the amount of knockdown effects early in the game is incredibly frustrating to me. Also trying to avoid these effects seems moot, since you dodge behind a mob and still get hit most of the time. I...

The best I can do is an hour an act on average (Act 9 is a lot faster but often 3 is slower) because my OCD will not allow me to skip side quests. I keep trying, but I always do them. So I am a solid 9 hours. A Racer, I am not.

Well, that trailer was certainly pants-raising. So 17 titans, superpowered moves, with apocalyptic death throes - there ain't going to be much left even after Godzilla wins. Dayum. Looks awesome.

You have to assume the CGI in the trailer will be improved in the movie, but holy shit that is some of the worst. That motorcycle falling off the wall bit could have been done better by a high school kid, not even mentioning ALL the Fresh Prince facial nightmares. I get this arrogant - I am so...

For some reason I don't like their games. I have tried Bastion about 6 times and just can't stick with it. This just looks like more of the same to me. One man's garbage is someone else's treasure and all that.

There was some rumors of this a while ago, tied to chance of getting loot, kind of like the seed number in the old Titan Quest days. But there is a counter rumor that if this did exist, it was fixed. So supposedly the answer to your question is NO, but I don't think anyone knows definitively...

I rolled up a Winter Orb elementalist just to see what all the fuss is about. Fun! I actually liked BV, but got annoyed with the mechanic, and the faster power-up with Worb helps a ton. It had a slow spot through about Act 5 and 6 but then started to dominate again, even with shit gear. It...

I cannot put into words why I hated Civil War. Only Avengers movie I turned off before finishing. I dunno - may have been I thought the underlying premise was too ridiculous for an entire movie. Avenger's Infinity War was the best superhero movie I have seen in my life, however, so I look...

Yeah, melee needs as much help on the defense/survivability side as the attack side. MS Jugg works because of high defense, high life on hit, high life and one billion balls hitting the mobs chin per second. Half the issue is clearly surviving while (1) standing still, (2) in close proximity...

Martin has already sold out to a terrible clicker mobile game, it would be nice if he actually gave the license to a developer that could actually make a good game as well. One can hope.

Nice to see Clint Eastwood got a final role after The Mule - he looks good as the zombie cyborg Dad. (Edit - my comedy timing is probably off as this most likely came out before The Mule. Whatever man). Just kidding, I love Eastwood. I wish he would live forever, for real. I will watch this...

Jesus, yeah, this stuff is hilarious in a cringy way. He's gone full Randy Quaid. You don't go full Randy Quaid. Also that Cronos movie is about 0.1% from being qualified to be on RLM's Best of the Worst. Also, I have no idea how I have never heard of this movie because I was it's core...

This. That photographed black hole could come and swallow everything that is Disney from our reality and we would all be better for it. We need to start pulling up some of Walt Disney's especially egregious past and posting it everywhere again. If some fucking Nascar racer can have an...

I guess it would if they weren't all primarily white. I was going to actually say this is going to make me sound accent-ist. I can't really tell the diff between the NZ or Australian accent, that is true. I wish I could do a good accent, I think it is HILARIOUS when people can do accents...

Jesus I know this is going to seem dumb, but Wilson sounds EXACTLY like Ziggy-D. Are they related? Their voices are almost identical. Not like all NZers sound the same (although they do sorta hahahaahah, but seriously...)

Fuck me running, sideways. The media and all this shit cannot die fast enough. Edit - I know I am doing exactly what I shouldn't, which is actually react to this completely empty bullshit, but at some point the dam has to burst. Slaanesh69 just wants to choke a bitch.

Phoenix is undeniably a great character actor, but what the heck is this movie going to be? I will have to say that is the way to do a teaser trailer, whet your appetite with the lead actor but don't reveal much in the way of story. Intrigued.

Underrated - Constantine and the original Silent Hill movie. Two of my all time favorites, subjective as it is. Will rewatch regularly. Overrated - Black Panther. Bitch, please.

I tried the PS4 version briefly. It sure looks great on the big screen. I want to like it - but since I am an older man, controllers are an enigma to me and it would take some getting used to. I dealt with it to play splitscreen Terraria with my kid, but it takes a while. However, I think my...

I am clearly an idiot and cannot figure out how to move previously placed memories without moving them to the queue. Will have to google. Edit, nm figured it out. I'm still an idiot.
