Tides of Numenera being so bad is a bummer. I talked about this on the CRPG thread, but when I worked at Gamestop I knew so many people who were STOKED for that game, and watched them all get really bummed within a couple days of getting it. Also sad to hear Star Ocean went off a cliff. Never...

https://www.ebay.com/itm/175747403532 Jeepers! Not that far from that life-sized animatronic version of this now. As long as they can keep the chance of it murdering you under 10%, it'll sell like hotcakes!

I don't understand* why child trafficking is such a subject that the mainstream (Oscars etc) doesn't want anything to do with. Mostly only seeing right-leaning outlets even talking about it. Seems concern about it should be a pretty universal thing rather than a partisan political thing. * -...

This thing is doing worse than Flash? Cool, maybe next time they bring back a beloved legacy character, don't make it a movie that "deconstructs" him to prop up a younger replacement who is better at everything.

I think Grusch is legitimate. He was just hesitant and had weird body language on a couple of things which gave me the impression he didn't actually know all of the answers, and was supplying secondhand info on some of them. None of that means he's illegitimate though. All of this is very...

I'll need to check it out. Glad London is getting some respect as a wrestling city finally. So many cities internationally that would do incredible business for wrestling if anyone would give them a shot.

EQ is full of useful skill-teaching. Three examples: -I always led my own groups in EQ (live) while leveling. Always. Not only did I assemble them myself, I'd also direct traffic. Was always a monk on live, and being puller gives me an advantage for traffic-directing. Was able to lead groups...

"What's a Paladin?" is such a hilarious memory. Did she turn into a whore with you, at least? Good to find someone else who has beef with that game like I do. It's too long, too tedious, and just doesn't have much redeeming about it. I think the low camera angle was the biggest issue, cause...

Yeah, like...wot? Like I said before, raise the potion cap by 2x or 3x and don't refill potions on death. Can keep the checkpoints, whatever, but take away death being an advantage.

Funny, I actually know a guy who spends a fair bit of his sundays painting miniatures and had to make sure his wife accepted it. In any case, you're right that it's better to discuss these things upfront. Most people hide their proclivities, either because they think they'll be judged for the...

Top guild on Vulak... was that EoE? I think Faceless was also on there but wasn't big yet IIRC. Fippy is the one I mostly hear about since it had TL/AoS, Citizen/OGC, etc.

I know what you mean, PSP spinoffs of AAA games tended to be big downgrades from their main serieses, and not even worth it for completionism. I stopped worrying about them after a while. I could probably put "all DS games" on here in the same vein. I really didn't like the DS. So much stylus...

I've had a suspicion from the get-go that you the player would turn out to be the bad guy or something in the overall game. I hope they have the balls to follow through. Has any RPG done anything like that?

I'll never get all that "how do I get my wife to do X" stuff that's all over the internet. Always makes me wonder why they married someone who isn't into their main thing. Usually it's a three-way or buttsex or something. I know people have other priorities and lots of other things can draw you...

This is the one sauce from Hot Ones that I don't recommend because it fucking sucks. I've tried them all too. This one has a super-annoying burn that goes on and on, and continues into the stomach. No other sauce gives me an immediate stomachache, this one does though. So get this if you want to...

All the talk about games taking X amount of time or people powering through so they have time to go outside and touch grass, it got me thinking. What are some games that you spent a lot of time on and regret it? Not necessarily the worst games, but more games that took up time that you'll never...

Same. I'll also go Resolution Mode for Hogwarts Legacy whenever I actually play that. Yeah the lower framerate sucks. Not only is it higher resolution though, they also do some nutso effects with light and reflections via ray-tracing. Between HL and this, it's kind of cool to see devs making...

Yeah, pretty much. We were only together two months before she dumped me via text because I asked her to make some weekend time for me after she told me she'd be too busy. Like "I told you I couldn't and you're expecting too much from me and my career is first and I don't think this'll work, I'm...

The labs had to be done immediately yeah, and I guess there was no other way to do it. She got put on an antibiotic later that same evening and I had to go pick that up, so I guess it was a pretty serious deal.

Ackshually, Tsushima is also on PS4. But yeah, one should play a game that gorgeous on PS5. Same goes for Elden Ring. It also has Horizon 2 and God of War 2 if you're a fan of those serieses. AND plays all PS4 games, with faster loading times. @1987 Just go get one. I did on day one and have...

Yeah, I think R&C is finally beaten on PS5 visuals. I'm glad FF16 is a PS5 exclusive and they didn't dumb it down to be cross-platform with PS4.

They probably measure the completion percentage by certain benchmarks in the game, or something like that, that don't really jive with the actual exact game progression. All I know is what it says: I don't work by the hour, so I believe it. Araysar answered this above so you might want to...

Looks like I'm at 15 hours and 41% progress. Whoa, a lot further than I thought I was. Still avoiding sidequests. I'll give it the full robust 80 hour playthrough somewhere down the line. I owe FF15 a second run as well, did the same thing there. Just arrived within eyesight of the Empire's...

Kirsten Gillibrand cancelled Al Franken, so fuck 'er

So, you can go back and replay earlier stages. In Final Fantasy. Not "dungeons", not even "maps". Stages. They should just go all the way into action game ville and give you a letter ranking at the end of each "stage".

So good to see this guy have so many live viewers and millions of subs, considering I started watching him when he had like 60K subs (which...wasn't that long ago)

As a kid I never understood wtf Quick did. Thought it was some kind of Haste spell and I already had one of those. So I never fooled with it. They should have called it Time Stop or something like that to properly convey how OP it is. Whenever I play FF6 again I might try a low level game...

Ifrit and the Dark Link version of Clive, I believe. Damn, I might be nowhere near the end. Then again I tend to book it through games like 2x as fast as the norm. Not doing side quests and not talking to everyone saves a lot of time. If I really like the game I'll 100% it on a second run and...

Imitating things you've seen in porn is the absolute worst thing you can do with women. From what I've heard from them, tons of men didn't get this memo. Yeah, my redheaded super-sexual ex wanted me pulling her hair all the time (like even if we were out going for a hike or something, if I got...

That's what I was talking about, and yes. Never feels like I really win anything, but more like I threw lives at it or something. Unless I win in one shot, so I try to do that. Monster Hunter is probably the biggest "thing I should really like, but wasn't able to get into at all" out there. I...

It might have a chance if they keep it limited to basically just FF6 boss fights. Which I'm not sure what else to do with it anyway.

Reminds me of a bunch of friends of mine who are all PC and blatantly inoffensive now (the kind of people who go "IT WAS A DIFFERENT TIME" every time anything remotely un-PC from the past comes up). Every single one of them were into WWF Attitude and/or South Park and/or Eminem growing up...

The girl I was with for like 7 years, a (legitimately) crazy redhead with a bonkers sex drive... she loved that. I'd go down on her and use two fingers, sometimes reaching up so she could suck on them. I didn't stick them in her mouth like some kind of buffoon, I just reached up there so she was...

I've kept women at arm's length at the end of a first date (made out, said goodnight instead of following them in), then had them ghost me, multiple times. I think not putting out is taken as some sort of mortal insult to their attractiveness or something. Weird thing is that you didn't just...

Yeah, there's no way the world is 6000 years old or the Great Flood was 5000 years ago. My guess is 10-14k years ago for the flood, or 8000 BC to 12000 BC, and I think the advanced civilizations that preceded it were likely existing in the neighborhood of 17000-12000 BC.

Haven't had time to watch it yet and can't vouch, but this looks like it might be interesting.

Nobody answered that last question. Should I keep equipment around for later / should I buy one of everything since that's what it lets you do? Or does it not matter at all? I've got Invictus now which completely obsoletes any store-bought weapons...

Like I said, I don't know why. My mom needed me to bring her over there so I did. Something about her primary being too far away and not able to see her for several days anyway, but she needed lab work done. I'm pretty sure we could have gone to some other lab but IDK. Good question. Most of...

I took my mom to the ER on Monday so she could give samples for lab work she had to get done and her primary is temporarily closed or something. I don't know. I'm sure there was a better option than an ER but when something comes up I don't ask questions, I just go get her and drive. Rustled...

Wow, well that sucks. I went blonde to cover up a bald spot. Hopefully it doesn't make things worse. As for covering up a bald spot, blonde actually works pretty well for a light-skinned person. Ric Flair had a big ol' bald spot for like ten years before anyone in the mainstream started...
