    The Astronomy Thread

    I really hope the idiotic fucktards that comprise American mainstream media aren't celebrating the Russian space failure. A swing and a miss in space, for any nation, is a miss for all of us when it comes down to it.

    Snow White (2024)

    I had a lot of other shit to do besides watch movies. I never saw any of the Karate Kids either (until a few years ago), despite doing a ton of martial arts as a kid and being literally the target audience. Did make time for TMNT1 and 2 though. Incidentally Terminator 2 was the first movie I...

    Snow White (2024)

    Snow White is now a successful lawyer working at a law firm and is the best lawyer ever: Prince Charming, on the other hand, is a stupid idiot legal intern who can't do anything right. Also, he's gay. To avoid ableism, Dopey's name is changed to Cognitively Divergent-y: And he's gay.

    Snow White (2024)

    That's a terrific metaphor. These people wear the skin suits of things that are actually popular, created by people with actual talent, and use those skin suits as trojan horses for their nation-weakening ideological bullshit. Was Weimar this bad?

    Snow White (2024)

    Same, holy shit. And all I said was that she had nice legs. Well, fuck her legs! Except I didn't grow up with Rocky in the 80's. I saw it for the first time in like 2002, after I turned 18, then saw it for the second time like 3 weeks ago. Also it sure sounded like you were taking a roundabout...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    What rustles my jimmies: The seemingly total politicization of the "medical community" -Took my mom to a medical center and they had giant BLM and imperial pride flags prominently displayed outside (flat on the wall, high up, while the actual US flag was all rolled up on a pole). Place was a...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Went ahead and got the first one. It looks a little antiquated and has some "PS3-like" jankyness, probably due to being a first year PS4 game. The art direction is great though and the light effects / particle effects are actually super impressive for 2014. I blasted through it with Warrior and...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    So basically they can keep covering up whatever Lockheed / Raytheon / Freescale Semiconductors are working on, until such a time when they need UFOs to scare people, then they can "announce it to the world". Or just not, climate change is enough to scare people. I expect UFOs to be "a thing"...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I've been historically very bad at retaining friends / staying in touch / spending time with people, as a full-on loner. I make friends pretty easily, I just don't cultivate the friendships, or it takes a huge concerted effort for me to cultivate them / even just stay in touch. So all my grade...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah you never actually need to stop and level in FF6. The parts I pointed out are good places to gain a few extra levels if one's so inclined though. The toughest parts of the game are few and far-between, but I'd say a few notably strong areas/bosses are: -Kefka in Narshe -Zozo in general...

    What are you playing?

    Sort of all over the place now, not really focusing on any one thing. Finished Mortal Shell, now playing Armored Core 1 and Lords of the Fallen until I get AC6 (which'll be a few days after it actually drops, mad busy this weekend). Mostly just killing time cause I don't want to get super into...

    JRPGs

    Is that chick wearing flesh-colored pants? This was definitely on my radar a year ago, looks like a Chrono Trigger homage. They got Yasunori Mitsuda on-board for it (not sure how many tracks he actually contributed). Trinity Trigger was also on my radar since it brought back the composer and...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I still have a couple counterfeit games that I was never able to get a refund for since it is literally impossible to get a real person at Ebay or even to get a call-back from a real person at this point. Hopefully when I finally do get around to talking to someone they'll retroactively help me...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    There's an early level-up trick in FF6 as well, but don't do it. Can gimp the challenge of the first half of the game and gimp your characters in the second half since they'll be missing esper bonuses. I'd also leave the exp/money bonuses off for this one because it's super well-balanced as it...

    Blue Beetle (2023)

    ESG investing brah. Big studios really don't have any shortage of money and no longer have to worry about making actual hits. Smaller studios are just emulating the bigger ones, but can't take the hits, so they'll be the first to roll it back.

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Started playing Armored Core 1. Yeah, the first one (AKA the only one you can actually buy digitally for some reason). I played it through once before, in 2010, but it was with a physical CD and a lot of the music was bugged (didn't play). This time it's digital (on PS3) and all of the music is...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah, VaatiVidya has done so much for the Souls games and Fromsoft in general. From helping people understand the stories and lore to just generally expanding the scope of these games with his content. I don't watch him much at all, but I appreciate his work and he deserves all the Youtube...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    I have no idea but I doubt it. The Switch versions are worth getting just to be able to play these on the go. I got them on PS5 because I wanted those 100% platinums and that was a big part of the recent playthrough for a bunch of us here, but for normal non-autistic folks I'd definitely go with...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Yeah, I can second this. I started at the beginning a couple weeks ago and just finished the latest one, and they're worth a listen for anyone who hasn't. You can pick out the ones about servers you were on first, but soon you'll go back and listen to the ones you weren't as well because there's...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    You're missing out. I went back and watched Juno just to see what Ellen Page was spending so much time banging. Wow this movie is annoying. I'm sure 15 years ago it was a good time but now everything about it is just obnoxious to me. All quirky and shit and quietly legitimizing adults flirting...

    Goldberg's gonna be at All In, motherfuckers I guess Goldberg and Wardlow is gonna be a one-on-one thing after all rather than a tag (not at this show)

    Ryan Nemeth's gonna end up taking off for greener pastures and actually getting used correctly in NXT, much like Pillman probably is. Guy deserves a lot better. Dolph Ziggler's better-looking brother who is a bump machine, and has nothing to do at every show, sitting backstage like a jackass...

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    Obscure bullet hell game few people have ever heard of: Judgement Silversword for the Wonderswan Color. Get yourself Mednafen emulator and give it a shot. WSC is a very underrated system we never got here. Judgement Silversword is probably the hardest vertical shooter I've ever played and later...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Emerald Weapon might work in an FF6 setting, due to Aire Tam Storm being a 9999 AOE (yeah, I know it can be gimped by unequipping all your materia, but where's the fun in that). A fight like that in FF6 would require the player to make judicious use of Life 3 to recover. Combine that with 1M HP...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    It's a mech game, and if it's an improvement on the old ones (especially 4th gen) it might be the best mech game evar. People love mechs. It's also the first AC in almost exactly ten years. AC games also offer incredibly deep levels of customization, have interesting future settings, and...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Why are game journalists hating on this game? Watched Razorfist's video about it and I still don't get it. Is it really because they want it to be more censored? I can't imagine a Baldur's Gate would be the height of gender/racial insensitivity. Does it show a boob? Are the female characters...

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3

    So wait, this is Modern Warfare 3 the sequel to Modern Warfare 1 and 2, NOT Modern Warfare 3 Remastered which they never did for some reason after Modern Warfare 1 and 2 Remastered? I think they have the same showrunners as Lords of the Fallen

    Health Problems

    What's the degenerative arthritis like? I get frequent pains between the shoulderblades (upper thoracic) that are annoying as hell, and sometimes I get lower-down pains (lower thoracic) that basically locks up my entire spine. The lower pains happen if I sleep too flat and the upper pains happen...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It says something that the richest guy in the world (on paper) and also one of the busiest people in the world, when he has time to game, reaches for Elden Ring.

    Health Problems

    Oh yeah, that's L5/S1, the same one I got (well the worse of the two). They told me they didn't have to go from the front, just that it would be "easier" if they did. Speaking from experience, them going in through the front fucking sucks and I wish I could go back and do it over again. Had a...

    Health Problems

    An older guy I knew once told me "youth is wasted on the young". A couple years later he died of cancer and I started to understand what he meant. Fast forward about 15 years and I really understand what he meant. My latest health problem: Cold sweats. I'm tired all the time and the cold sweats...

    Health Problems

    I've gone through this before. What do you mean by "had a discectomy on in 17 is back 26th"? You had a discectomy in 2017? What's 26? Which level is it on, lumbar/thoracic/cervical? I'm guessing lumbar if sitting in chairs is an issue with sciatica. Fusion is very likely going to be needed...

    What are you playing?

    What a ridiculous monstrosity. It looks like the Genesis is on life support. Nope, SNES never had add-ons like this. They kept mining more and more power out of the base system. It's amazing the visual difference between stuff like FF4 in 1991 versus Chrono Trigger and Treasure Hunter G in...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Not in FFV! I wish FFVI had superbosses. The closest thing is Siegfried in the Coliseum. FFVI Advance at least adds a few postgame bosses but none are what I'd consider "super". The Kaiser Dragon is the last and biggest boss, and apparently it was a cut boss from the original FFVI so that's...

    Lords of the Fallen

    I just recently played Mortal Shell and it was a pretty sub-par Souls. Scratched an itch though and was short enough to not really be any sacrifice to play. I can tolerate a lot of sub-par when it comes to this genre. As for LOTF, probably just wait for the new one since apparently there's no...

    Playstation 5

    You should be able to port anything on PS4 onto PS5. With reduced loading times to boot. PS3 games are stuck on that system, but are also account-bound so if you got another PS3 and signed in they should be available for download (unless they changed it) As for the rest yeah they're probably...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Yeah, I assumed it was a debatable topic and that the paintings didn't definitively depict dinosaurs, given how worn-down most cave paintings of advanced age are. Dinosaur-like creatures appearing in worn-down paintings is believable enough, though they could have been interim species of things...

    Playstation 5

    I bet PS5 is going to get discounted even more this holiday season, wouldn't be surprised to see it for $350 at some retailers. Price is gonna come down a lot in advance of the PS5 Pro if it's getting dropped on us next year. Personally I think the base PS5 is so powerful that we don't even...
