    Soulstone Survivors

    the more I play this one, the less I like it. It doesn't understand the concept of monster waves. they just spawn nonstop constantly. even during bosses.

    Soulstone Survivors

    looked at the "what you are playing" thread, to see the discussion. and checked out Rogue:genesia demo. that one is looking real good to me. it solves a few problems. one, it uses the slay the spire map system. so, you have that overworld map progression, with monster, chest, gold, event, etc...

    Soulstone Survivors

    yeah, there's so many copycats now. some have good ideas, some have bad. I'm not sure which is best. I like this ones dodge. This one can be hard to see. giving the enemies aoe's and projectiles is a bad idea. I have nomad survivors too. That one has skill evolutions which is nice. skills...

    The Midnight Club

    I'm on episode 3 so far. out of 10.. ugh. This is a slog. 50min episodes, of which like 35 are devoted to the wraparound story of the cancer kids, who telling the stories. only 15 min on the actual scary stories being told. Its SLOW and boring. its just sad most of the time. The main...

    Roguelike... City Builder (Against the Storm)

    well, lets come up with a better term, and popularize it. The issue: firstly, theres Roguelike, and Rogue-lite. roguelike originally meant games like rogue. so, specifically rng perma-death proc gen dungeon crawls. I'd be more ok with "roguelike" if it kept to that more specifically...

    I clapped when I saw they replaced actual choreographed fight scenes with physics-less CGI Daredevil props. It was so beautiful.

    Manor lords

    I lost alot of people at first having a hard time with the work assignments. the "enable" idle workers button is super unintuitive. I have no idea which one is active still... is it on or off when its yellow? A house=1 family. 1 family is the numbers up top on the right, and you assign...

    This has a temporary demo on steam some may wish to check out. through the 10th. https://manorlords.com/ (dev makes a joke about a demo for an EA game in the opening menu.) Right now, its just an early town building demo. Pretty solid opening however. This city builder will stand out in...

    House of the Dragon

    what a weird post. I was agreeing with Ossai. Basically following through his hypothetical. have you seen Jupiters legacy, or read the comic? The comic has a "now" storyline issues 1-3, with some major plothooks. Then goes back to the prequel of the older characters origins, which lead up...

    House of the Dragon

    God, that would have been a terrible idea. Its like Jupiters legacy massive fuckup of starting with the prequel stuff. no you morons. you have to start with the main hook of the NOW storyline. Get the hook, THEN show flashbacks. We haven't seen the "now" timeline hook for this show. so...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    costume complaints are common for this. "they are shit" is of course pretty vague. Wheel of time- shit. Due to anachronistic outfits. Designs don't really fit the world or characters often. unrelealistic as well. Especially fatal is a lack of attention to detail. stitching, modern items...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    no. A volcano is triggered from volcanic movement underground. Pressure buildup of lava, or gas, or, earthquakes, or tectonic shifts. All incidences where there is pressure underground, pushing up. Either slow magma leaks, or a giant explosion as the pressure pops the mountain cap. A...

    Saints Row 5

    that guy is a Yakuzi bike gang boss that tries to kill the player repeatedly.. how is that related? like in SR 5, there is a side mission where some rollerderby girl, hires the Boss to assassinate a Rival, because shes tired of losing. not a gangster, not a criminal, not a bad cop. you...

    Saints Row 5

    I was watching someone stream this game... and it really does feel off. The main characters are giant shitstains as noted. massive hypocrites. sociopaths. I'll admit, I was one of those hopping on with sr3. and having not played sr 1 or 2. SR3 definitely hit a "loveable rogue" tone...

    House of the Dragon

    I went and looked up the scene. I guess he was making a joke or something. it doesn't play out like he said. He claimed she was immune to the fire, and the dragon tried to kill her repeatedly, and it didn't work.

    House of the Dragon

    so I watched preston jacobs epi 6 commentary. and.. so.. some? Targaryen's are immune to dragonfire? I'm very confused on this now. why would they have ceremony of burning the dead, if some are immune to dragon fire? was it even dragon fire, or just regular fire they are immune to? does...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    M&M is probably the Mouth of Sauron. Sauron is a shapeshifter, so could be.. but 99% sure Halbrand is Sauron, and Girl-glad helping him out is supposed to be her big comeuppance with all this girl boss energy.

    Return to Monkey Island

    The lucasarts adventure games all have a similar feel. but many that aren't lucasarts are VERY differant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LucasArts_adventure_games In this case, yes, full throttle is fairly similar to Monkey island. Grim fandango and Sam and max in particular. Lucasarts...

    Free Guy (2020)

    got to this now. this is rough. I wish movies like this would be put more effort into being "realistic". What I mean by this is like, when the devs try to find the "hacker", and they log into the game to chase him down in game to stop him.. this movie would hit harder if the real world...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    sounds like you pulled a muscle. not exactly the same as throwing out the back. food poisoning is usually pretty quick. when you say bbq the day before, you mean, that night, then 3am is the next day? or, a full day prior? does sound like food poisoning, which will keep you from sleeping for...

    Cyberpunk: Edgerunners

    Its an interesting question. Lovecraftian stories. cyberpunk as you note. vampire, goth. etc. Bleak dystopias with no happy endings. they are oddly popular. I think its gotten worse in the last 15 years or so. no happy endings. Pyrric at best. They infest video games now too, in no small...

    AI images

    shit already is. did you not see the rittenhouse trial and how utterly incompetent the judges and lawyers were with the images? how even just digitally resizing an image changes it. do you think they would have been able to actually tell if the image was outright doctored fully?

    Babylon 5

    B5 is a heck of alot more soap opera then modern shows. Most of it, is not like modern stuff which has a more set narrative start to finish. Way more episodic drama then what you might expect these days. PS. Jadzia Dax predates B5 by a month. deep space 9 beat b5 to a trans character even...
