    Dune Awakening

    Do you just have like a half dozen of the large water storages? Like I said the other day, my issue with death is that you can't "start" a corpse until you've got space. So unless you just have tons of extra space, they seem a little inefficient.

    How long does this fucking corialis sandstorm last? Or is the first one (not sure if the early access had one)? Super obnoxious to have a constant sandstorm. Maybe that's why servers shit the bed?

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah, if that's real, they deserve it. How does a script that bad get through any kind of checks and still get filmed? And not a single person checked in on filming? No one from the studio watched dailies? If true, it's no wonder they're such a clusterfuck of failures lately. They apparently...

    Shit, guess I need to get off my ass and get the buggy made then. Spent most of the day moving my shit to that spot Cinge mentioned the other day at that 4 way zone intersection. I did go up to those intel areas near the border wall. The first one I went to (that overlooks everything on top of...

    Apple TV+ thread

    https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/248830-stick Don't bother. It could've been a slam dunk, with the "burnout loser professional athlete mentors young guy with tons of talent" and they couldn't help themselves. Sadly it started out decent, and I can't think of any shows about golf like this. But...

    Dune Awakening

    We got out of Hagga Basin yesterday, and man, this one is addicting as shit so far. A lot of it is probably the newness. And bonus is that there aren't shit tons of guides out there laying everything out. Think we'll be getting to steel real soon. Will probably end up moving the base again when...

    7 Days to Die

    You kind of said it yourself. You can't actually build a base anymore that withstands zombies. And regarding survival, they've decided instead of scrounging up shit, they'd rather you do quest zones constantly.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    This one is a Spotify special for me. There's something I really like about it, apart from the hilarious mental image of a dinosaur pile up.

    Amazon Prime Video Thread

    I've been telling my wife we need to cancel Prime for years. She did some math though, and we have an Amazon credit card just for Amazon, and even though we do little shopping there, it basically pays for itself. So for now we keep Prime. I don't really ever watch anything on it though. It's...

    I think that's my only complaint so far. The research and crafting windows are cluttered messes. Hard to make sense of anything.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Figured the guys in Nitzer Ebb would've been way older. Dudes in Ministry are all mid-60's. Even Trent Reznor is 60.

    So pretty sure I'll be picking this up tomorrow. Any idea when the normal servers go live? And anyone doing a FoH...guild? Or got a server in mind?

    Dept. Q

    I generally hate British shows like this cause they just seem...not really overacted, but like they're trying to mimic American shows and doing it poorly. Like a child trying to imitate adult behavior and it's just off. Not finished with this one yet, but I was kind of hooked in the first...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Not at all. See my posts earlier in this thread where I was dumping on jrpg's and how they're just weeb shit now, and then a few weeks later where I binged the hell out of the game.

    Good luck parrying Simon. That sounds like a blast.

    That Call of Duty that had the Warzone battle royale (Modern Warfare?) used to do it pretty much every launch. Shit was obnoxious.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    If you're already in act 3, you're basically done. Just go finish the shit up, it'll probably take an hour or two (if that). Act 3's story is incredibly short. It's just the non-mandatory stuff that you can dick around with forever. You don't need any additional grinding to finish the story either.

    If this was really originally a Ray Donovan thing, I guess it makes sense. His wife on that show was repugnant.

    MobLand

    Yeah, I already thought the Kat McAllister character was a bit much already. Don't know her story, but she's obviously involved with much bigger fish than the UK offers (her own words). I guess we'll just wait and see. It was definitely a good first season.
  24. Gravel

    MobLand

    Yeah, my only issue is that they really blew their load with this first season. Where do you go from here? It's where shows like this get into trouble, because they're going to keep trying to up the ante to keep people "engaged." Which is always a recipe for failure.

    Dune Awakening

    That's fair. In fact, I was talking about the 7 Days 2.0 release, and that combat is jank as fuck too. Appreciate the responses though. Instead of just calling everyone a faggot for "only watching videos and not playing." I'm 50/50 on this one still. Seems like people in this thread either love...

    So are you saying the combat is good?

    Dune Awakening

    That's been the thing I notice every time I look at a stream of this. The combat looks absolutely retarded. Like, something you'd see 25+ years ago bad. Then again, whenever I watch, there's very little actual combat. Mostly just gathering shit. Everyone playing it seems super engrossed, but...

    7 Days to Die

    Seems like the game is turning more and more into a linear first person shooter zombie game, with survival elements. They continue to kill the base building portion of it.

    I mean, watch the video? His example is a photon clock on a spaceship. The photon is really what I'm referencing as far as "spaceship." The photon can never reach the speed of light, because it requires infinite energy in order to do so. It can approach it but never hit it. And what is light if...

    This whole derail makes me feel retarded. Physics was never really my thing. But watching this video, the one question I have is if all of that is true, how does anything travel at the speed of light? If we're breaking this down to how fast atoms are traveling, what difference does it make if...

    It's funny, because I'll read all the spoilers for these movies because I know I'll never actually watch any of these so it doesn't matter. Wife and I went and watched every Marvel movie sometime around when Infinity War and End Game came out. Of the new ones, I saw Black Widow and Shang Chi...

    Stranger Things

    I'm amazed at how long people will stick with these shows (looking at you Walking Dead). I checked out after season 2. Saw this thread got bumped and didn't even realize they were still making it. This was nostalgia bait with 80s shit. Are they even still in the 80s at this point?

    Wow, yeah, reading that and that sounds fucking retarded. You can tell they thought they had a great idea, but thinking about it as a player it sounds bad. Really bad.
