I think Midnight looks promising, I liked TWW even though most of it is just filler busy-work content (Siren's Isle was particularly lazy, and K'aresh isn't much better, Undermine was okay). It gave me enough time to catch up on all the pent up years of farming / collecting work thanks to...

I just saw the Brawler's Guild is returning in the next patch, that's pretty cool. I wonder why they keep taking it away for years every time.

Marie didn't have to channel anything when she exploded Cate's forearm, it was just reflex. She's only channeling when she is trying to do something carefully (like not exploding the goat), and even then it's clear she's holding herself back involuntarily, with the useless hand gestures (per...

Honestly, dumb youngsters aside I think this season is pretty interesting story-wise. Cipher is a pretty interesting character and quite funny, even if the "twist" can be seen coming from miles away. I agree however that there is a complete unbalance in the balls to tits ratio.

If by kids you mean 30+ women then yes. Kids couldn't care less about Star Wars these days for the most part.

@Chanur Here's a link to Aliexpress for the store where I got my son's APC : For the Warhammer 40K stuff unfortunately, only a few days after I received both the vehicle and the minifigures, I got an e-mail from Aliexpress saying they were sorry about the products I bought because they were...

That can be explained by Boy Kavallier's backstory, mostly from the last episode. We know he felt way more intelligent than everyone around him from a very young age, we know he felt he wasn't taken seriously as a child and was resentful about the limitations put on him for his child status...

I have a few third party and/or chinese LEGO-like sets at home, mostly for my teenage son and they range from meh to great. I got him a Warhammer 40K tank with a few UItramarines from a chinese brand, also the Armored Personel Carrier from Aliens for his birthday because he really loved that...

"Ahhh yes, time to play my video game about warring middle-eastern cultures to escape from reality for a bit"

At first glance I thought the green/yellow striped belt between Fatsquez and the rifle was some sort of freak zucchini. It did not help this picture at all.

Considering the care they put into making sure absolutely everyone returns for season 2 including the dead guy, I'm half convinced Private Red Dreads returns as the host of the plant creature with green leafy dreads. But otherwise keeps acting like a completely normal magician person.

@pwe's going to have to roll the game back to version 0.13 once Trump cures autism some time this week.

Probably warrants its own thread, but I don't know how to make them fancy threads with the poster and cast so this'll do.

As for Romulus, I thought it was fine if a bit too heavy-handed on the callbacks, but there's at least one thing I'm thankful for, they managed to find a clever way to reconcile the stupid ass black goo from Prometheus/Covenant and the actual Alien lore. The scientists on Renaissance Station...

Prometheus has cool visuals, but that's pretty much it. If I had to rank Alien and Alien-adjacent films, I too would probably rank it below AvP. Why? Because I didn't expect much from AvP but it's still a fun time with dumb stuff yes but it's pretty entertaining and is the kind of thing I wanted...

Shredder's Revenge is the best TMNT game since Turtles in Time back on SNES, it's a love letter to the old TMNT cartoon, features basically every character imaginable and has had several (rather low-priced) DLC that add even more characters to play including some fan favorites like Mondo Gecko...

How many Eye Monsters though?

N64 had some of the best and some of the worst 3D games I've ever played. It's hard to reconcile that the same system that had Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, Goldeneye, Mario Kart 64, Lylat Wars, Turok 2 and Perfect Dark also had Superman (at least I didn't buy THAT one) and Mission Impossible (my...

I mean, every Metroid Prime game has had its gimmicks so far.. Metroid Prime itself was a huge change from the classic 2D Metroid games in gameplay, pacing and the focus on scanning the environment, Metroid Prime 2 was all about the light and dark phase shifting and Metroid Prime 3 had a lot of...

On a related topic although the gameplay is different because it's more like a continuation of the original Ninja Gaiden series on older consoles, Ninja Gaiden Ragebound just came out and it's really great. It's the same developpers as Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT Shredder's Revenge, so it's...

Fed spotted.

I'm sure the showrunners for Gen V are just as unapologetically "progressive" as the Boys' showrunner, but I imagine there's still some really annoyed studio executives about those shows that had seasons being worked on when woke was still the winning ticket and the wind's been turning really...

This looks more like the Tropic Thunder version of Anaconda.

Yes, the best time to introduce a new important leader character is in the middle of episode 7 of a 8 episode season. Also, have the second most important character of the antagonist faction and with the most screen time suddenly do nothing anymore after 6 episodes and just watch from the...

It's hard to tell exactly about xenomorph communication / language because we don't see it too often in the films : Alien : there is only one xenomorph, so we just get the usual attack hisses/shrieks, no discernible language. Aliens : the hive wakes up when the marines kill/burn the...

Wendy was special because she could hear the xenomorph embryo, inside the facehugger, itself inside the egg... that's the frequency no one could pick up. Once Kavallier asks her to vocalize it through her built-in speaker, she's been using it in human-ear range ever since the xenomorph hatched...

You misunderstand. I'm not saying the writers thought all this through, or that they worship the previous canon entries so much they know every little detail. I'm saying there's enough groundwork for it to to make sense in the larger universe, which I guess is more a compliment to the writers of...

The shotgun was inserted inside the alien's mouth, I'm sure that contributed greatly to how much damage it did. Vasquez was shooting pretty much point-blank (she was using her foot to keep the alien's head fixed while she emptied her clip into its head), and we don't really have information...

The Weyland-Yutani team had one of their dudes shoot like 5 or 6 times up at the xenomorph when it pounced down onto him and yet he was completely undamaged. It's possible he might have missed, but I think you're onto something, nobody has the gear or ammo required to take on xenomorphs reliably...

The obvious solution is to keep making the credits faster and faster for the FoH poopsockers, and secretly make a second website for normal people without telling us.

To be fair, do you know what would happen to any of those soldier dudes if their excuse for shooting down a 6 billion dollar pet project of their boss is "but she was hurtin' a human, sir!"..? Prodigy (and the other four companies probably) doesn't give a fuck about humans anymore, Atom didn't...

That was a weird (and short) episode by itself, hopefully redeemed by a solid, longer season finale. That scene with Slightly and the facehugger's disgusting noises and how he tries to make Arthur drink through the process was funny in a horrible way. I was also half expecting him to accidently...

The outro songs are meant to sync with the episode theme, I'm guessing. Spoilers for length

With 2 episodes left, there's about a 90% chance the genius and his island turn into a mushroom cloud soon, so I'd say genius is a relative word there.

I don't mind the show as it is so far because I enjoy the half Blade Runner half Alien setting, but I see your point. I've seen rumors that a "season 2" could be about Hadley's Hope to tell us what went on between Newt's father getting facehugged and the Colonial Marines getting there with...

Black scientist lady in episode 5 made dumb mistakes, and should not have even been working alone in the lab, but I chalk that up to field promotion and many dead crew members and some of them still in stasis. It's possible this chick was never meant to examine the specimens herself until the...

The crew of the Maginot also seemed to have no knowledge whatsoever. They likely didn't know about facehuggers hatching out of the eggs because even though it is mentioned in the first episode that they lost a bunch of crew members trying to catch those creatures, it makes sense that if they...

@Haus after he tells himself today is the day he won't freak out about a misplaced %, a letter slightly extending out of its frame, or a 0.000023% decrease in his DPS on specifically Arena 37201.

Who could have guessed that Doug Bowser would make stupid decisions regarding Mario..?
