Taking a break from Crisis Core (about halfway done with the plat) for a bit and I'm liking Nioh enough to maybe stick with it this time. Been bouncing between that and Salt+Sacrifice the last couple nights. I actually like S+S so far. Did the first two Mage hunts (the things people say are so...

Yeah, I know guys like him too. The douchey pretentious guys who pretend to give a shit about their GF/dates while not even knowing how to listen to them. Anya Taylor-Joy isn't that good looking but she isn't bad either, has a really nice 'bod, and knows how to dress to accentuate it. Or...

Titanic is way better than people give it credit for.

Any advice on said breakage? I wanted to do some farming early in the game to get used to the different controls. That's how I got anywhere with Bloodborne / Souls in the first place, by just farming for levels for a few hours until I was actually good at fighting stuff. If I can farm stuff of...

Supposedly it's going to get a bluray set at some point soon, but I've been reading that since 2019. In Europe you could already get bluray box sets for, I think, the first 3 seasons. They sold out everywhere though. The only thing I can still find is Season 1 which got a region-free release...

I think Galactus is too big to be a Kang goon. Expecting him to be the next Marvel Big Bad for like Phase 7-9 once they have full X-Men integration going. Not sure if Kang is the boss in Avengers 5 and 6, or just 5. Heard a lot of rumors about Doctor Doom being the bad guy in 6. Though it's...

Watched a few things lately, gonna pull an RLM and rapid-fire review them here rather than bumping a bunch of threads. Spoilers: Screamers (1996) - Very good sci-fi movie based on "Second Variety" by Phillip K. Dick. Had some really chilling moments and felt like a particularly nihilistic...

Yeah, a lot of this didn't make any sense / came off as a bit farcical. The guy who brought Margot there didn't seem like somebody okay with dying at the end of the evening. Those crooked businessmen and the cheating Joe Biden guy definitely didn't. Margot was hired by the guy to be his date...

What's harder, Nioh 2 or Sekiro? What about Nioh 1? I'm sure I've asked this before cause I've had all 3 of them on my shortlist for two+ years. I started Nioh 1 (again) not too long ago. Looking for a build that makes that game easier, cause I kinda just want to get through it after all...

Yeah, I wish they'd drop one of these servers in like, February. I'm never doing much in February. I think one of those predictions will be right but not both. They always have at least one classic-launch server. It's possible this will be the time they don't, given how many we've gotten...

I'm so sick of hearing "kill the animals" / "save the animals" 12 times every time someone plays Super Metroid on these things. The way they say those things, you can tell it's like the edgiest thing they've dared to say in public in years

I did a couple posts on the EQ live boards about the issues with Vaniki's AAs, like how we'd insta-get all of them as it is and it might make sense to lower the level reqs on them by 5, things like that, and had a bunch of live posters just said I wanted the game to be easy or whatever. Lo and...

I might try to re-create Khan Noonien Singh's attempt to conquer the world using some sort of India/Middle-East based empire. Though it's also appealing to take over Africa and turn the continent into one big powerhouse country that sits on and utilizes the world's biggest reserves of natural...

I've got this and it's one of those games I struggle with. I think my saves are about halfway through both THPSes. It's like I just start hitting a wall around 40% of the way through the campaigns and by 50% I can't meet any objectives anymore. The score objectives are higher than I can possibly...

Made some more progress in Crisis Core, on Chapter 4 now. Making sure to 100% everything as I go so it's taking a bit longer than just a normal playthrough. I left the game on for like 4 hours and went out, with the DMW running in Mission 1-1-1, and came back to...no gained levels. I thought...

I hear this game has an incredible soundtrack. Any recommended tracks to listen to?

That game is long and arduous. A lot of people complained that AC Odyssey's main campaign ran way too long, so they...doubled the length for Valhalla. After a while I just beelined every mission and sprinted to the next waypoint over and over trying to just get the damn thing over with. Was fun...

Funny cause I was supposed to play Crisis Core today and instead I fired up Elden Ring and ended up playing it for a couple hours and discovering new stuff. I think it's up to like 250 hours because half the time when I'm intending to play something else, I end up defaulting to it. This is...

I hope Avatar 3 has a decline / shows diminishing returns simply because I don't think we need more than 3 of these. Make it a really solid trilogy and call it a day. Cameron is too good to spend the rest of his career turning Avatar into a bi-yearly franchise where we're getting Avatar 9 in...

NG++, double platinum, and I just found another area that I've never seen before. Auriza Hero's Grave. I was looking around the edges of Leyndell to figure out if that north area of the map could be home to a DLC (probably not, looks like it's all jagged mountaintops and a big ravine). What I...

Some actual good movies on this adjusted for inflation list. I'm glad Doctor Zhivago did so well. It's a great movie about the horrors of Bolshevikism in the 1920's that more people in the modern era should see.

The last scene with Superman arriving to confront Black Adam was chill-inducing. Good to see Cavill again and man, I can't wait for Black Adam 2 or Man of Steel 2 to see what happens with these two. Easily the best scene in the movie. ...then I remember absolutely nothing is happening and none...

I predict Avatar 2 will end up landing at #7 on the list. There's a big gulf between Jurassic World and Spider-Man. And 1.8B is about as good as this can do I think.

Does this game take geographic barriers into account? Things like Germany's elevation and the Rhine making them harder to invade, the Pyrenees separating France/Spain, etc. Also how feasible would it be to start an African Empire and take over the world? Is there even such a thing? Seems like...

I agree...except in the case of Demon Souls. Going in blind is how you end up with completely borked world tendency and end up having to start the game over because you spent 8 hours dying on World 4-2 with red phantoms everywhere (Yes, this was what happened to me the first time). Demon Souls...

Demon Souls and Elden Ring are probably the two easiest of the six From Soulsbornes. Both give you major avenues to lower the difficulty. You can overlevel in both, use summons in Elden, and use sorcery in Demon. Sorcery also works pretty well in Dark Souls 1, but won't help you much in Souls 2...

I think she's cute from a normal person perspective, but from a Hollyweird perspective she is indeed odd. Considering how she gets cast in everything like Margot (which is, funnily enough, her name in this movie), I wonder if she's in with the Epstein crowd. Kinda sad that if a woman is...

Watching this right now on HBO Max. It's about 80% over. Pretty bad movie TBH. The first half of it is just nonstop noise where I could barely tell what was going on, reminded me of a Transformers movie. At least the red-haired latina is kind of hot. That's about all I've liked. This movie is...

Starting Crisis Core tomorrow, looking forward to that. Also trying to knock off more challenges in the Mega Man Collection and the last 3 bosses I didn't defeat in Cuphead's DLC. One of them is Chef Saltbaker and I hear he's a real bastard.

Nice, I kinda wanted to see this, gonna load it up today. The main actress in this is really cute, probably gonna be the next Margot Robbie who is cast in Everything whether we like it or not.

I've been reading the T2 sequel trilogy by S.M. Stirling on and off for a few years. It took a while but I finally got to the last book and have about 150 pages left. This trilogy functions as a sequel to T2 but it doesn't actually mess with the canon much, aside from Judgment Day happening...

Fast Five, Fast and Furious 6, Furious 7, and if you want to see more of it, Hobbs & Shaw (Spinoff). Those four in particular are way superior to everything before them. The trilogy of 5/6/7 is pretty much a thrill a minute. I think 7 ended on the perfect note so everything since then has been...

Sounds like a movie written for the Epstein crowd of uber-elites. No wonder it's called Babylon

I might well take a swing at this. Armored Core has run into a few roadblocks, like all of the games costing exorbitant amounts and emulation being iffy. Good chance I'll end up just playing the PS1 ACs.

Yeah, that pack-in game punches way above its weight. It's one of the best 3D Mario games I've played and it isn't even a Mario game. Does some really cool stuff with the DualSense controller too, so I tell people to give it a go to see what the controller is capable of. The only full game on...

What is Flower Girls? *googles it* Oh, it turns all the NPCs into hot women? Well, that's a thought. OpenMW looks good. I've got the Morrowind copy that includes the Morrowind Construction Set on another disc. Never fooled with it, I guess that's a mod-creating tool of some sort? I figured...

The prices on all these games I'm looking at are ludicrous. Yeah, I really made a mistake selling all my games in 2010. Looks like the PS2 gen is now reaching pricey retro levels and the PS3 gen is starting to climb up too.

Yeah Front Mission is nowhere near as fun as Armored Core. Both have similar vibes and settings though so I've been thinking about both of them. Front Mission usually devolves into "equip every mech with two of the strongest available weapon so they can fire twice at once, then the game...

Looked into it and there's a translated ROM of Front Mission 2 on PS1. So there's pretty much nothing stopping me from getting ROMs of all the AC and FM games on PS1 and PS2, provided PS2 emulation is stable (PS1 certainly is). Might have my game project for 2023 now: The whole AC series, mixed...
