    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    This is another big problem. Arch mentioned it. Too much fog, and atmospheric lighting. and then grey on grey on grey. wander comments on it pretty quick too.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah. for ref, arch was playing vet sharpshooter. I would guess he was doing 60/40 ranged/melee. way more then he liked, and I would have liked either.. Several things to consider though. 1. newb with no perks. its possible the perks greatly increase gun uptime. 2. newb all around. he wasn't...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    watching arch stream. he seems like enjoy it overall. he has 2 major issues. one, it seems buggier then before even. has crashed repeatedly. "I wanted to try several classes, but haven't even been able to finish 2 missions in a row" and, the other, he wishes the gameplay focused more on...

    Warrior Nun

    Barely remembered much from s1. S2. action packed. plot and motivations.. eh. some spoilers. also, I know nothing about the comic. on one level I can like the idea of planeswalker pretending to be a god, and the ramifications of that, on the locals. But, this is also yet another tv show...

    What are you playing?

    Vigil:the longest night, is one of the metroidvanias that hits the feel of Bloodstained/igavanias the closet. I enjoyed that one pretty well too.

    The Dragon Prince

    ohh, this is starting off bad. Voice acting seems worse. Writing seems even more childish then before. The childish writing could be passed off as either child characters, or child target audience. But when you create properties like this, you need to grow with your audience. its been 4...

    The Dragon Prince

    starting this now. imho. the previous seasons don't deserve that high of praise. The story line is kindof fucked. and, alot of characters actions and motivations are just ????? Viren especially. what even the fuck is this guys plan? for my king and country, kills his king. for...

    The Peripheral

    why the fuck would they A. not kill the assassin on the bridge with future tech. B. let him go with the town sheriff off alone. why the hell would the sheriff arrest the guy alone?

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    yeah, still digging bodies out of the rubble, and we get this: the pa kent insanity and this scene is what destroyed him. you can have metropolis destroyed, but you need to have proper catharsis for it. and instead of him mourning the dead, helping rebuild, and saying, "im sorry for...

    Terraria

    damn. well first to this, I wasn't sure. corruption/hallow mechanic I think itself is already that mid game exploration system, making you redo areas you skipped over, or revisit. A great mechanic so many other games of this type completely ignore. especially the conan/ark style survival...

    The Peripheral

    now, do remember, they don't care about polluting the past. when they contact the past, an alternate timeline is created. that alt timeline has no direct effect on them. they could kill everyone in that alt Earth, and it won't affect them. of course then theres the, they aren't even really...

    The Peripheral

    I suppose I overlooked the obvious. They are harvesting other timelines for technology. So, they only had to make ONE advancement, then steal the rest. they don't have limited time, and people. they have literally unlimited amounts of people and time. find an overachiever. lets say elon...

    The Peripheral

    starting epi4 now. did blow through 1-3. I feel like the future tech is a bit much. way too much is like literal magic. Its bad enough to have such insane advancements in 70 years time. but have so many in so many different fields. but then, also place that on top of a massive global...

    The Peripheral

    starting this now. I just loled at the "you would have to play with your brothers avatar, so the boys don't know its a girl" lol what. if a girl was actually good at games, dudes would be all over that shit. the idea that a girl would have to hide her gender for respect is idiotic. if...

    What are you playing?

    This one completely passed under my radar. I don't recognize it at all. let me know if its any good, those that try it. Vigil: the longest night I found a pretty solid metroidvania. Deedlit: wonder labyrinth was also good. but very short/easy. get on big sale, or gamepass.

    Trollhunter is fantastic. this however just looks like a bad Emmerich style disaster movie.

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    The trailer.. poster, etc. They are marketing this as if anyone gives any shit about these characters etc. its like they massively overestimate the public demand, awareness, and fanbase.

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    sadly, I actively chose to watch the non-3d version of Dredd, because a string of terrible forced 3d movies had been in theaters previously. including Coraline. I had given up on that shit, and was actively avoiding it. yeah, took like 3 minutes into the movie and that first slo-mo scene to...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    epi.8 the Murmuring is solid as well. A very slow burn ala, Hill house, or the lady in black. Setting up bird watching, recording, and slow reveals at relationship/motherhood issues. 8 is probably the best of the bunch. low on scares, but very emotional and humans acting like actual people...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    epi7. 90% of its great. character driven. all talking... then completely drops the ball on the finale.

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    epi6. witches house. is ok. again, too many plot threads. characters. it introduces all these characters it does nothing with. Lots of rules I don't understand. the main character messing with things he doesn't understand and not asking questions. bonus points for woke casting, but not...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    spronk actually means epi4 here btw, with the ugly chicks. episode 5 is pickmans model. which itself is also a too long disjointed mess. its a very loose adaptation of Pickman's Model, from Lovecraft. but, greatly extended out, adding all sorts of pointless filler, and Lovecrafting themes...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    I mean, yeah. thats usually how anthologies go. not quite done with epi4 yet. but 75% through or so, this is some real "tales from the darkside"/Creepshow shit. Very solid. we will have to see if they stick the landing. edit: sadly, no they don't end it well. If it just ended after she...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    epi 2. was meh. actor overacting. (David Hewlett.) I think the story lost its way with, rats>giant rat>zombie cultist back to rats. like, it would have been solid with just rats. or, if the rats, and even giant rats leading into the cult then staying with that, would have been something...

    Skyrim

    yeah. I was saying this in the "what are you playing thread". possibly why this was bumped, and you gave it a shot too? I had 100% forgotten how good Skyrim really was. So much content packed into every inch. Some issues. the UI is shit. clearly consolitis. I remember back in the day...

    The Witcher

    Who fucking knows? I think this is one of those times you have to remember Hollywood is full of cokehaed, pedo, rapist, narcist assholes. If you or I, were in charge at Warnerbrothers/DC, or Netflix/witcher, we'd think, Cavil is the only reason either of these properties exist, surely we can...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    yeah. it hinted at mythology and story, but didn't actually explain anything. first lady, says the candlabra is shit, and worthless. but, is fiddling with the candles, and hands it over. either she did know and was lying, or just was somehow ignorant about them? she didn't lie when seeing...

    House of the Dragon

    probably more UK+Scandinavia+Iceland. Can't think of any real USA allusions. Like, the north is flipped. Ibben is Iceland. but its to the east, instead of the west. and the entire top of Europe/Asia is missing... and is instead attached to Westeroes, and north/northeast. Summer isles is...

    What are you playing?

    nah. Via gamepass. Special edition+anniversary edition, and all dlc. I've never actauly played oblivion, morrowind, or daggerfall believe it or not. I'm not really sure how I missed them all. I know alot of people insist morrowind is better still. for daggerfall, yeah, ,theres a few...

    Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

    my favorite part is, he wasn't even a racist. The black super said racist shit to him, and he just responded "hey fuck you". Then the Mexican lady did it as well. and he just said "hey fuck you, if you are going to insult me, do it in English." They can't help themselves. Imagine it was a...

    Return to Moria

    for referance: http://readonlinefreebook.com/the-fellowship-of-the-ring-the-lord-of-the-rings-1-s19-c18-h Frodo says he can't read it, and Gandolf says its elvish, west of Middle earth, and elder. I don't think it was sindarin. but yes, Gandolf does say, its literally written on the door. If...

    What are you playing?

    Idk, I was level 30... pretty far along. if I can't figure this out, might be done with it again. a real shame. especially If I have no guarantee it won't happen again. Its not even like I was relying on quick save or autosaves, or overwriting previous saves. no. I have like 40...

    What are you playing?

    of course, as soon as I post that. like, literally loading the game up while posting... suddenly my saves are busted or something. Every time I try loading a save on that character, crash to desktop. I can start a NEW game, and load that character, but none of the previous. no mods at all.

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    its not that they walked away. its just that dev time on indie games is never as fast as you would like. Slow dev time on this was obvious right from the get go. Especially true with Early access. Always a huge potential problem. Slow time. and god forbid you have to pivot game design or...
