    The Cloverfield Paradox (2018)

    I thought the way that scene was going to go was the dude was going to find himself between the putty and the magnetic field and bad things would occur. I have no idea why it snatched him like tentacles, pulled him back to the wall, and tried to assimilate him into the Borg Collective.

    The Cloverfield Paradox (2018)

    I hate all of these. Overall movie was fine for watching something at home but I wish that the amount of effort put into the rest of the film was put into the script. It's just goofy.

    Luclin has a version of the fungi that is BST usable and requires level 51. There's also a no-drop fungi with big stats out of Vex Thal.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Um, so hypothetically if I never even got to 110 last go around (stopped at 107) and have done essentially nothing in the game how long am I looking at before I can make the moose antler cow I want to make?

    Is unlocking one of the new sub races something that can be done pretty quickly after purchase of the expansion goes through?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Ah, not just me then. Yesterday I started up WoW for the first time in eight months and was plagued by everything crashing including the repair tool. A full reinstall got things going. Now I was thinking about buying the expansion and went to play and every char select screen was black. I've had...

    Hearthstone

    I think it's an indication that they at least acknowledge that Wild exists. Raza and Patches see plenty of play in Wild and I guess they didn't them to just always be doing the things that they do in that format.

    One of the side formats you can play on MTGO is a community driven format called Penny Dreadful. It is an eternal format where the legal cards are those that had average price of 0.01 tickets in the months between expansions. When a new expansion is released a nice price snapshot is taken and...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    With Luclin it's super easy to just LFG and murder stuff as it's convenient for you. Lots of outdoor zones, short runs, and stuff to stab. If you can only play 20 minutes it's whatever because you're just squatting at a zone line anyway.

    League Of Legends

    John-Paul Satre wrote a play about League of Legends back in the 1940s. It was written about League specifically but the lessons can be applied to Counterstrike, DotA, etc. I consider it required reading.

    Again, do you think it's reasonable that the game be changed for everyone rather than you choosing to wear slightly less heirloom gear?

    I agree with that to an extent but would you want the experience for everyone to change because you didn't like to play in a way you feel is less than optimal?

    I had one of these as a kid. It came with a warning to not get the goo on carpeting. Part of the agreement in my getting it was that I wouldn't get the goo on the carpet. I got the goo on the carpet. Fucked the carpeting up bad. Real bad.

    DVD bonus feature stuff for this and the deleted scenes are pretty good. A few things they cut I think hindered the movie a little bit even.

    There's just a world of difference between having a mature internet and not having a mature internet. Back forever ago there were local magic communities that not only were immediately on board the Necropotence train the instant that Black Vise was restricted but also developed Stasis based...

    People were trying to break LED almost immediately. The first deck it saw use in was a combo deck called Reap Lace. You make your opponents shit black with prismatic lace, cast Reap to return LED + another Reap. This was popping up once Tempest was out. Brainstorm is card that I don't think...

    We made it a long time without Standard bans and now in the span of 12ish months we've had three separate bannings totaling eight cards. That's a lot of cards to ban.

    It (2017)

    I watched it for a second time just a couple days ago and found myself still enjoying it very much. That probably means the film is better than my initial perception. I just wish it was a little more patient with its scares and I wish Mike and Stan had a bit more to do. I think I said this...

    Mortal Engines (2018)

    I see I never updated this. Book one was pretty good, the world was interesting, characters were decent, etc. The ending did an odd thing where but other than that it was a solid "C+". I don't plan on going any further in the series though. It wasn't something that I finished and immediately...

    The Predator (2018)

    Have you seen The Divide? It's about people locked in a bomb shelter under a sky scraper after a nuclear attack. It has Hicks in it. It's not great. There's definitely this thing where an actor does one or two awesome sci fi films and then a whole bunch of crap.

    The Predator (2018)

    Have you seen The Colony? He's in The Colony. Attempts to stop global warming caused global cooling and an ice age, marauding cannibals living in the wastes, it also has Hicks in it. It's not great.

    They are billions

    I would like a last man standing versus mode where you can't actually fight each other directly but instead each do your best to fuck over your neighbor as hard as possible with trains, obstructive building, and general asshole behavior. The match continues until only one side is left uneaten.

    Hearthstone

    If that combo was still available in its current form and with Innervate to boot it would certainly be a problem. The ramp's even more consistent and with every Ultimate Infestation you would just assume that if you couldn't respond you were going to take 21+ the following turn. But that's...

    I remember when Force of Nature was nerfed because threating 14 points of burst with Force of Nature / Savage Roar was just too much. Fourteen points of burst is positively quaint by today's standards.

    Retail Apocalypse aka The E-Commerce Thread

    Each Wal-Mart store does a full inventory audit once per year. Losses in the 1-2% range are considered normal. You get north of that and it triggers things like having to do inventory twice a year, additional managers on duty, more security, etc.

    Return of Reckoning - Warhammer Online Private Server

    Coming up on ten years later I am still sad that the Archmage trait Golden Gaze got removed and the overall AE power of their dps spec neutered.
