    Niiiice. I used to collect both Dungeon magazine and Dragon magazine, think I preferred Dragon. Always thought Asmodeus was like the "final boss" of AD&D but now I guess Demogorgon is. Asmodeus is more like a deity/manipulator who lurks in Nessus, while Demogorgon will actually show up and...

    A Man Called Otto (2022)

    Didn't this guy go to Epstein Island? Who knows, not like they actually investigated anything. I'm gonna operate under the assumption that all those motherfuckers be guilty.

    Culmination of Zayn and KO's year long ROH feud where KO endlessly tormented Zayn who just wanted to be his bro. 30:40 onward is probably the best match ending I've ever seen. "This guy finally wants to be my friend again. Wait, just remembered how he tormented me for a year, fuck him"

    The Food Thread

    These "candy sushi" things are awesome. Anyone know what that round gold thing is? It's crunchy and pretty good. I'd buy a pack of them if I knew what it was. Also wondering about the strawberry strip around the marshmallow.

    Post Your Pet

    I get Purina dry food for my cat because sometimes he won't eat anything else. He's been eating it off and on for 14 years and is the picture of health despite already being beyond the average life expectancy IIRC. Didn't know there were any Purina issues. I mean I don't trust cat food in general.

    Drizzt in any of these CRPGs? I'd think maybe Icewind Dale? Only time I've ever gotten to play as him was in that very subpar D&D game we got recently. Dark Alliance or something.

    Shouldn't be that much. I paid like $20 for the BG1+2 EE set two years ago brand new. Think I saw it on PSN for like $12 recently and if you want a physical copy I'm sure it's on Ebay for less than 50.

    Does this guy show up in any of these games? This is the "Out of the Abyss" module. Would be rad to fight him in a game (or go into the Abyss at all). I think someone said Pathfinder 2 has some Abyss?

    PS4 version with a 65" 4K OLED. The fonts and everything on the default settings are just right. Here's another shot, Vishimtar down.

    Baldur's Gate 2 update! Just reached Chapter 5 so I'm closing in on the end. The whole asylum part of the game was a total PITA. Not sure why exactly, it just was. I pushed through though. Boo's fur is erect with anticipation. I really like the dialogue in these games. Found an infinite EXP...

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    I don't want Nintendo to go bankrupt cause I grew up with them, but I sure do want to see their games at least be available on more systems. Don't think it'd even be the death knell for Nintendo's hardware. If a game like TOTK has a PS5 version, that's just more revenue for Nintendo, right? And...

    I heard it's good. Kinda surprised. I'll make time for it somewhere this month, hopefully it stays in theaters long enough.

    Any Fallout 1 mod suggestions? Wouldn't mind improving that experience a bit. Also a bit concerned about the game not working anymore so I might leave it alone. Seems very tenuous already that I got these super-old games (FO, TOEE) working.

    Final Fantasy 16

    I agree, FFX-2 is criminally underrated. Only two strikes I had against it were 1. The Dark Knight class breaks probably the first 95% of the game. I've got a file about halfway through the PS4 version where I lost interest because my characters were all DKs and could all one-shot every random...

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

    Thanks, this is a lot more readable. So what's the deal with the Protocols of Zion? I've seen them referenced in so many places (like this) but half the time when they come up it's in the form of "the discredited Protocols". Yet I still see them cited, and I don't know if the "discredited"...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I expect them to pay off the cab driver and tell everyone accusing him to shut up if they know what's good for them. They really want Majors to be the Hollywood golden boy now. Who's they? IDK. Besides all that, he still has to do the George Floyd Movie eventually. Probably coming out in May...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    He's a hell of an actor and I really liked him in everything I've seen him in. That said something about him also gave me the willies, and I'm a good judge of character, so not surprised he's got a violent/abusive edge. I expect Marvel to keep him on and take the drubbing for it. Guy was...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    What's the Rift, anyway? Also, any content from the Hobbit? It's been 27ish years since I read the book, and I don't even remember The Battle of Five Armies being a part of it at all. Like I remember the book ending with the fall of Smaug. I need to look this up.

    Final Fantasy 16

    The Pixel Remasters are coming out on console in like a month or so. Can get some of those, think they're retailing at $15 each on the e-stores. For straight turn-based, FF1 and FF3 are solid AF. 4-6 use ATB which I don't think is what you're specifically talking about but regardless they'll be...

    At one point I got tired of all these rich people talking down to the protagonist so I just went postal on a bunch of them. Then ALL of my party members immediately ditched me and had a lot of choice complaints to make. It was hilarious. Then I reloaded of course. A lot of the environments in...

    How different from BG1+2 is Divinity? Since BG3 is apparently gonna be more like Divinity I'm curious what the difference is. Yeah it seems like the Abyss is really the big threat of the D&D verse, not Hell (which I always thought was the ultimate foe). So now I'm getting more interested in...

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    Naw. I'm the same way. While PS4 and PS5 were both day-one buys for me, the last 5 Nintendo systems were all things I bought 1-3 years after they launched when they had a couple of exclusives I had to play.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I think this actually has a reasonable chance of being close to the truth. Server 1 being truebox sux though. All I want from TLP this year is to try running an RTS box group like Tuco and I'm not gonna run a bunch of laptops. Server 2 would be pretty DOA. A few of the power players on here...

    Is it the Keep Key? That's the only key I've got in the inventory. Might have to go back in there and figure this out. Just finished the longest quest I've done so far in the BG series (go into the Ruined Temple and defeat the Shade Lord to basically free the nearby town from their murdering)...

    I got the key off the wizard guy. I think it was used up when I freed The Child from the jail cell though cause I don't see it in the inventory now... One of my party members (the girl with the wealthy friends) just got arrested out of nowhere so I'm down a member. Yeah I've got +1 across the...

    That's a good answer. Hell would almost certainly be playing defense the whole time and fighting on their own terrain. I never even considered the idea of Hell invading the Abyss and conquering it because such a thing seems impossible. And the attrition would be a big thing too. Somebody should...

    Tricksy hobbitses? I have an important question if anyone wants to answer it: Do you get to raid the Balrog? Not necessarily THE Balrog (Durin's Bane? Was that his name?) but A Balrog that's like equivalently cool?

    Top Gun: Maverick (2020)

    Yeah. I got a small whiff of "lol white man dumb" early on when they were all in the bar and Phoenix was acting more like an overconfident ace pilot man than any of the actual men were and that one timid nerd showed up. But no, the movie didn't continue on that track at all. Everyone in the...

    Since the subject of D&D lower planes came up earlier, and "Descent Into Avernus" talks about the Blood War quite a bit, I've got a question for D&D lore hounds. If Hell and the Abyss fought to the death, which side would win? They're the two biggest and baddest monster-oriented planes in the...

    That reminds me of how I discovered the Mailer-Daemon and how weird it was. In 1997 or so I was reading a guide on Gamefaqs or whatever the equivalent was back then. There was a major error in the guide and the guy said to email him with any corrections or additions, etc, so I did. His email...
