    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    Awesome, I just got Incendiary Powder. Just the first book, second looks unnecessary. Any other skills that are really worth getting or OP? I like the look of Vengeance of Thor and Feign Death, going to grab both ranks of both. And what about the two-hander ability that breaks through barred...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I mean, most of them will let you purchase instantly...it's the getting money back that has turned into an issue. For example, Stash has owed me $554 for about a week now. It's less of an issue with Robinhood because they'll make the funds available right away to re-invest at least, but you...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    What's a good trading app for selling quickly (aka avoiding a massive delay on bank transfers)? I've got Coinbase and Coinbase Pro, but haven't sold much yet and haven't paid attention to the turnaround time when I did. I just know that when I sell stocks on apps like Stash, it can take like 6...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Just want to quote the first post on this thread, from the beginning of 2013. $17.40 for a Bitcoin. ...........sigh. Anyway, is Ethereum still a good bet? Seems like it has a much higher ceiling for growth than BTC due to the lower value at this time. Wanted to buy some last week during the...

    There's no way flying taxis will be a thing with human drivers. Automated self-driving cars are becoming a thing sooner than flying cars are. From there it'll be a quick step to combine the two. The potential for terrorism is WAY too high with people driving flying cars (look at the very picture...

    Nioh 2 (PS4 (PC in November?:emoji_nose:

    I ordered the PS5 version for $70...probably would have been cheaper to get the first two for like...$10 and $20 and then downloaded the free upgrades. Oh well. Been waiting for the PS5 version since the PS5 dropped. Going to hit this hard this weekend. All I've played of either game previously...

    Just imagining Apple's dev team being comprised of black women and gay Latino men, with several rainbow-haired transgender people crying in the corner from emotional breakdowns and a couple of full-time therapists trying to console everyone. It would be something to behold, at least.

    This is like a mini IQ test and also a test to see how much of a n00b you are at stocks. "How soon did you realize this was a joke at first reading?" For me it was #3

    Babylon 5

    The plot of this one looks a lot like Battlestar. Another show that got axed WAY too fast was Jericho. Not a space show, but it could have been the next Lost (except better IMO). First season is OUTSTANDING. Second season is, IIRC, like eight episodes long and packs in like four seasons worth...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I see that a lot on Phinny, esp with wolves/bears. Then other times they'll look normal. I don't know if it's because they're different models or the game doesn't load right sometimes or what. Sorta tempted to get on and fool around in Luclin with my enc, did Deep AOE groups really get banned?

    Babylon 5

    Space shows are probably my favorite genre. Took me years to get through the various Star Trek shows, and all I have left now is DS9. However I've been dragging on it because the first few seasons are just so slow. I hear it picks up a LOT in S4 onward. But now after reading some of this I kinda...

    JRPGs

    Wasn't able to finish Ys Seven (think I got about a third of the way) in time so I'm going to jump ahead to Ys IX. I'm playing them in such a weird order. Looks like it'll be IX->Seven->Celceta->VIII. No clue when I'll get to Origins since it's so massive, probably not for a while. Same goes for...

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    Where are these abilities? The arrow skill that blows up walls, and the smash down barred doors skill. I can't find them anywhere in the skill tree. I've got a ton of ability points piled up (at least 20) since I haven't spent any since I got Dual Wield 2-Handers. Are they from books of...

    What does this mean? Feb 11th is going to be a surge for Palantir? I'm trying to figure out that chart. I got some Palantir last week.

    Lost 75% of what I still had in GME ($200, so lost $150). Everyone who waited past Friday to sell was making a huge mistake in retrospect. It was pretty much an endless descent once the brokers blocked purchases of it and people started to panic. Good news is there are lots of better things to...

    I was looking for HCMC yesterday morning and it isn't available on any of the trading apps I use. Maybe it's too small. I was willing to put some money on it and couldn't, and then it doubled. IDK about now. Lost $150 on the GME debacle. I make that in 4-5 hours so I shouldn't be too fussed...

    I grabbed BTNB at about 12.20 as well. Feels good to catch something on the low end for a change. Gamestop value is down to 55% of what I paid for it...lul, here's hoping for another rally before noon tomorrow. This will offset all the gains I made this week in other areas, but I suppose that's...

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    A bunch of the costumes were clearly based on like, Iron Man or Wonder Woman, one of the characters looked like Aquaman, the title image for the first DLC looked exactly like the Episode 8 poster... I mean none of this even came off like they were paying tongue-in-cheek tribute to pop culture...

    I'm not too sure what's going on either. GME had a brief rally a little while ago, but it didn't go anywhere...certainly not moon. At this point it's more interesting to me than anything else, making a profit on GME isn't even really on the table for me.

    Bunch of Johnny-come-latelies around here. *looks around* Oh. Blackberry sold, recouped 80% of the initial investment. It didn't go above 79% all week until this morning. They can rocketship it all they want but I wasn't seeing results, and a steep decline seems inevitable. Also got out of...

    I concur, but right now I've got buying power in RH that I'm trying to use (rather than having to pull more funds out of the bank). They must be completely backlogged because all of my transactions across all of these apps are on hours-long delays.

    Any Robinhood users here know wtf the deal is with buying crypto on there? It says I have no buying power, even though I've got over $300 worth of buying power on there now. Unless that only applies to stocks and there's a different fund for crypto? Either way it isn't giving me any choices...

    Wow, GME tanking. Had a chance to recoup my initial investment this morning and held instead, now I'm down to 75% of said investment and trending downward. Rebound potential good or GTFO now?

    Now that I have two greatswords, this looks even more like a Witcher 3 clone. Ubisoft has really been lacking in originality the last few years eh? Fenyx Rising is a BOTW clone, and AC Odyssey ripped off a bunch of Marvel movies (and Star Wars Ep 8).

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Fallout 1+2+Tactics collection with current-gen resolution and balancing tweaks to the early game. Who can I throw money at to make this happen? In addition to the ten CRPGs above, I've also now gotten ahold of Pillars of Eternity 2 and Warcraft 3 (plus expansions). Never played any of the...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I wish they'd release a Fallout 1 and 2 Remastered set like they've done with all of these other games. It's really conspicuous by its absence, and should sell like hotcakes...unless FO4 and 76 really did burn the audience too much. The first two have been at the top of my "missed CRPGs I'd like...

    Not a bad idea. This seems like something to play when you're hankering for an AC game and have nothing else to play for a couple weeks. ...if that ever happens. So far I'm also finding it to be the least AC-like AC that I've played, and it has more in common with Witcher 3. Which isn't the...

    Alright, I'll go for the arrow skill that blows up walls. Also the Bear skill bonuses since those affect 2H if I'm understanding the game right. Is the dual 2-hander smash down barred doors thing a skill as well, or just a passive bonus? Looking at the list Daidraco posted, I see another...

    You can get one two-hander from one of the town merchants (Ravensthorpe, merchant upgraded to L2) if it's an upgrade: I'm still looking for a second one. Missed my chance to get that really good spear in Norway cause I'm in Britain now. Not sure how far along I am with the game. Guides make...

    Ever get a dose of nostalgia about something you never actually experienced? Like someone else's second-hand nostalgia? I just got that reading this. I may not have played any CRPGs growing up, but I sure was into the AD&D and Forgotten Realms stuff. Being as socially inactive as I was, a lot of...
