    KOTOR Reboot

    Yeah the SNES Star Wars games were harder than Souls back in their day. I was obsessed with them for a while in 1993-1995. Actually Super Empire Strikes back is the reason I even got into Star Wars to begin with, since it prompted me to go back and watch all of the movies. Previously I'd only...

    Funny, I was just wondering if there was a thread on this yet. Yeah, this looks seriously good. Actually excited to play it.

    KOTOR Reboot

    I'll probably wait a bit on selling it then. I've sold hundreds of games over the years, starting with my 90's / 00's collections and then moving on to selling things as I finish with them. Something like AC Valhalla I could expect to recoup at least two thirds of what I spent. Still have a lot...

    KOTOR Reboot

    What would be a good time to sell my OG Xbox version of KOTOR? Complete in the case and everything. Wondering if it'll go up on this announcement, or down, or what effect the actual remake release will have on prices for the original... I could see a situation where the remake has so many...

    Fell Seal: Arbiters Mark

    I still need to finish this. Left off about 8 hours in. I need to find a job where I spend a lot more time on planes or trains because that seems to be when I get all the portable stuff done.

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    This is a great trilogy. Played all 3 of them in 2000 so they remind me of that year and yes, road trips. That said this is a pretty ehh collection. How about Romancing SaGa 1-3 instead, or included? That would be a must-have collection. I know we got remasters of RS2 and RS3 but we've never...

    Metroid Dread

    Another interesting trailer. This one reveals quite a bit more of the gameplay. You can tell how late in the game different scenes are by how many energy tanks Samus has. I'd like to know what that gold thing is at 3:39. Can't tell if it's regenerating immediately from her slash or if it's an...

    AEW Predictions just because I feel like the next couple of years have endless potential: Grand Slam -Kingston defeats Miro for the TNT Championship in his hometown via cage escape or some other means that doesn't involve a pin or submission -Lucha Bros defeat Jungle Express to retain -Malakai...

    Miniature Painting

    Cool. I need a Klingon Bird of Prey too. Would be nice to get a set that are all somewhat to scale versus each other but it doesn't look possible, everything is a uniform size. I don't like the subtle Enterprise-B changes so I'll probably go with a normal Excelsior model for that one...

    Aliens: Fireteam

    Got this on PS5 for $30 after coupons. Does it support online multiplayer or just couch co-op? Does the multiplayer work cross-platform so I can play with non-PS5 people? It's installing but I'm not sure if I'll get to it today.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Dalnir dungeon crawl was awesome. I hope people are checking out some of these under-used dungeons and not just sticking to the Unrest->Guk->Velks meta. There's some really cool stuff out there if you go off the beaten path.

    Miniature Painting

    Don't know if there's a thread for this already, but maybe the crowd here will have an idea: Any recommendations for Star Trek die-cast models? As a kid I had a die-cast metal Enterprise-D and I didn't like it because it wasn't Kirk's ship and "Next Generation is boring" (I had no taste). I...

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    I finished all 3 of my FF1 runs. Each one flew by....except the Red Mage which took a while. Monk was BY FAR the easiest. Red Mage on the nerfed PS1 version was an extremely slow process. And, get this, four Black Mages in the Pixel Remaster was actually HARDER than the NES version because of...

    Tales of Arise

    Checked out the pay2win DLCs on this thing. Yow. I like costumes and everything (prolly get a few of those in Berseria) but all of the "Add 10 levels for $3" stuff is nuts. Unless, maybe, it's a one-time, one-use kind of thing. And even then it's still kind of WTF. Berseria has some DLC like...

    Dragon Quest: The Definitive Thread

    At the point in DQ5 Remake where I have to marry somebody. I think in the Super Famicom version I married Flora (Nera now) which is really pointless in retrospect since she isn't playable. Bianca was a way better choice. So I was going to go that route this time, only to discover that this new...

    Yeah Sen's Fortress is something else. I found Anor Londo right after it to be the big trial for me personally though.

    KOTOR Reboot

    Oh God, she looks almost exactly like a friend of a friend who I almost started going out with in 2017 until I checked out her social media and found out she was a raging leftist lunatic. Maybe I'll just deal with the outdated visuals and play KOTOR on XBox. Edit: Is the best way to play...

    KOTOR Reboot

    I grabbed the original and the sequel for $5 each at a flea market a while back (with cases and instructions and everything, worth way more than that). Been meaning to give them a run on XBox for years now, but I have to say the visuals are a huge obstacle. I love KOTOR1's classes and design but...

    God of War: Ragnarok

    Yeah, PS4/PS5 dual-releases aren't going to look that great. They're more like PS4.5 visually. The difference between PS5 exclusives like Demon's Souls and cross-platform releases is HUGE. The same thing happened with PS3/PS4. For the first year or two of PS4 everything was dual-release and...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Not really, just make sure everyone has DoN progression done for the critical hit and stat bonuses. Can see if you have it already in the AA window by checking the special tab (the one with Lesson of the Devoted etc) for Power of the Keepers. I think the alternative is called Power of the Dark...

    Tales of Arise

    Yeah, I grabbed Berseria for $10. The anime tropes jumped off the page with this demo. Hypercompetent and stoic female belittling her feckless yet jovial male partner? Check That trope is on the same tier of annoyance as "male protagonist who has no idea that women like him and has never had a...

    Dark Souls

    Lost Izalith was definitely unfinished. I also love DS1 and its map / world design. It's the closest thing I've played to Super Metroid's perfect world layout since...well, Super Metroid. The way everything is interconnected is awesome. Never played DS3, still saving it. I'm hoping it'll take...

    Tales of Arise

    I thought about picking this up, but I don't think I have time for it unfortunately. Not even close. It looks good though, and I want to play a Tales game. I've tried to get into this series multiple times and it never clicks past the first couple of hours. I think the furthest I ever got was...

    Aliens: Fireteam

    This is getting better reviews than expected. It's only 8 hours or so for the campaign so I kinda want to give it a whirl. Since I'm not gonna buy it, is there any good way left to rent a game for a day or two that doesn't involve being a twit and returning a game?

    Yeah, at this point they REALLY need to make some cuts. Problem is, TK doesn't really fire people. Sonny Kiss gets monster reactions from the live crowd but he's on TV like once every six months. Wardlow had a MASSIVE line at Fan Fest and I don't even see him as getting a real push yet. I...

    Daaaaamn. MATIC went from 1.65 when I went to sleep to 1.16 a little while ago. Bounced to 1.35 so it's back where it was a month ago. What an epic crash. ETH went from 3.9k to 3.4k which is still way up from a month ago. My only regret is that I didn't sell VET too. It dropped from 15 cents to...

    I still haven't finished XC2 and I haven't even played Torna or XCX. I'm such a massive Xenogears/Xenosaga fan too. XC2 and XCX are top of the "things to play" shortlist for me...but so are like 30 other things. I really hope XCX gets a Switch port before I get to it. I'd be fine if they left...

    Truebit hasn't cratered. It started out in the first week higher than it has been since then, but it's been on a slight ascent and I've made money on it. It started out overvalued as a lot of things do (see also the COIN stock) and it just needed to adjust. This is how it has done post...

    MATIC took a 13 cent tumble this morning at 7 AM it looks like. Not sure why. Rebounded halfway since then to 1.65. Sold mine yesterday at 1.71 and was entirely expecting a spike to follow. I'll get back in when it's in the 1.30s area again.

    Discounting part-timers like Rock, who wrestle once every 7 Wrestlemanias, and factoring in only full-time rosters, I think AEW somehow has far more star power than WWE now. WWE obviously has the massive star power of the brand name alone to carry it, but as far as who the audience sees when...

    Lucha Bros were the only team that IMO were portrayed as equal to the Young Bucks for the past couple of years. It's actually fitting that they're the ones to finally beat them. My question is, who do they pass the torch to, if anybody? I'd honestly have them drop the titles to Proud & Powerful...

    Man, that really was sick. When Adam Cole came out at the end I thought he was going to have a standoff with Omega and they'd debut Bryan on Dynamite or something, then THEY GOT ME. They waited until like the last second of Omega's "good night" schtick to hit the music, like they put that doubt...
