    Return to Monkey Island

    Apparently Leigh Graner has been working on this. don't know what to think of that.. "she" is often quite insufferable.. presumably as a programmer, not writing or anything. but, if you watch day9 at all, probably already know they have a series for playing all sorts of Adventure games.

    The Umbrella Academy

    yeah. theres show's where its clearly the whole team. like, batwoman. Ruby rose may have been awful, but so was the entire show. Felicity in Arrow maybe. Weasley crusher. Author favorites who ruin the show. but, this was more then that as well. horrible, horrible acting. just totally...

    Weird West

    tried it on gamepass. struggled to enjoy it. The controls are fairly clunky. the action combat moreso. I am pretty sure this game would be 10000x better as a standard real time with pause tactical combat game. I think the Weird west aspects do feel off. not really in the same way skill...

    Nobody (2021)

    Caught this. didnt love it. its no john wick. Too much of the movie depends on the bad guys being morons. like, his plans seem to depend on them making poor choices. the bad guys drive up to his house. like 15 cars in plain sight. he just happens to see them drive up out the window...

    Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)

    I feel like this is something that would be a 10/10 animated movie, or comic book. but is going to really struggle to be even "ok" as live action.

    Collosal Cave 3D - a game from Ken and Roberta Williams

    sortof. I also thought they oversold that statement. "most gamers" are not 40+ year old pc/amiga gamers... that said, it has been referenced repeatedly in many other games. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xyzzy_(computing) xyzzy is something you may not even have noticed was being referenced.

    A reminder on the tax thing. If you are using turbotax, it asks you if you bought crypto.. but then, does not actually work you through entering your gains at all. You'll need to do it manually. Here's intuits guide on doing it...

    Justice League (2017)

    the Avengers also has a guy with a bow and arrow, a chick whos powers are being sexy, and a literal god on the team. its not that either. The issue is just shitty movies written and directed by idiots who do not understand the characters at all. The snyder movies were the anthesis of Superman...

    Reacher

    naturally gifted doesn't equal mary sue. if they put in the work, they are just heroic. the super man. I would agree a bit of window dressing to suggest he does actually work out, and eat well to stay perfectly fit would have helped. his "I just wander and do good deeds", is explained by the...

    my favorite part of this is I see at least 3 people that threw BOTH hands up, as if they couldn't decide which hand for the L and said, "fuck it. going to be right, one way or the other."

    Ms. Marvel

    Drinker is off on this a few times. First, lets go with the "hero that is only out for fame is a terrible hero". this is wrong. one of the best super heroes of all time expressly has this as his initial motivation and a primary character trait. now, obviously it works because its almost...

    The Random Questions About Gaming Thread - or TRQAGT for short

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WaveBird_Wireless_Controller I think it was the wavebird, when "modern" systems really pushed for wireless. and reading the wiki, they agree. basically every modern game controller is just copying Nintendo. top buttons, vibration, trigger, d-pad, and joy stick...

    The Cursed (2021)

    ha. humans are the real monster, and more dangerous is the plot of like 97% of horror movies. it comes in all forms. sometimes is Frankenstien. man playing god, and monster is misunderstood as the people are the real monsters. other times, its civilization is awful, and the protags are driven...

    I was pretty hyped a while ago. more recently I've had some concerns. not in tech, but the question of speculation, and investor behavior. A decent amount of people have had their Eth locked into staking while it was in process. Whats going to happen when all that Eth is back in play? are...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    the overall level/world design seems great. layers circling back into each other. secrets, etc.. theres a few things, that keep me away though. (basically, their studios entire library) 1. its ugly as sin. its dark, brown and ugly. full of death, decay and rot. 2. its depressing as fuck...

    Lost Ark Online

    so, I quit. but there was something I was curious about, and never asked. how do you transfer items to alts? like, good roll earrings. you have to mail it to yourself? Auction House it, and just try to buy it back up asap?

    Ms. Marvel

    the mean girl says, kahm -ah-la. khan says its "Kah-mala". same as Harris. not the other way around. that line is clearly a Harris reference. because somehow not being psychic and knowing how to someone prefers their name pronounced is racist. now, I don't know if the correct...

    Lost Ark Online

    I personally hadn't even really hit that part. much of the honing mats are locked into dailies... but not entirely, right? honing mats CAN be farmed in endless chaos. or, by farming other things, and selling them on the AH, and buying the honing mats with that gold, correct?

    mokokos is a good point, and shows the issue or even back to the EQ farming. do you see me complaining about mokoko collecting? or the chaos dungeon skins? hell no. thats great. lets say I have 1 hour to play/day, and 7hours to play on friday. I can farm the shit out of mokoko or eq on...

    Lost Ark Online

    I decided to cold turkey quit. The game was becoming just too time consuming. It is largely the daily format. like you say, "fomo" you don't have to do that daily shit. But, you kindof do. like, for example, una's tasks. I had actually off and on decided on this. on Saturday, I...

    yeah. surge is pretty fun on the deathblade. it makes it so attacks while in the deathtrance add a stacking buff, when you use other skills other then basic attacks, and awakening skills, gain a stack. max 20. each stack is +7.5% death surge skill damage, and 5% death orb refill upon exhaustion...

    definitely don't know that answer. It might be more useful just to have people describe how a class they play, actually plays end game. As the class preview system sucks balls, and gives you a terrible indication of how it plays. all t1 experience.. and pugs. many classes do change as they...

    my main is 500 as well. thats where t1 hits the 70 or less chance to upgrade and higher honing mats gap. and probably starts checking out alts.. main story, I just visited shushire once, and we back to vern doing dungeons, unas tasks.. so yeah thats probably were most people are at.
