    Episode 1 rough start. Apparently TV visuals are a solved problem but writing is far from it. 😐

    They Cloned Tyrone (2023)

    Pretty fun.. Worth the watch. Barely recognized Finn from Star Wars playing a drug dealer. 👍

    Will Sex Dolls Replace Partners In The Future ?

    Lmao that has a Wikipedia entry? 😅 Also, being raped in 14th season is like an average Game of Thrones plotline. That's a super early cancel culture example.

    Haunted Mansion (2023)

    50-ish Critic Reviews. 85% audience. Looks kinda fun. Also I forgot the Eddie Murphy film existed. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/haunted_mansion_2023

    Sound of Freedom (2023)

    Just saw it.. Pretty well done. Half the women in theater crying the whole time. 😢

    Secret Invasion

    It's really that bad?

    Remnant 2

    Yep if there was trait cap it needs to be 100 minimum. Really dumb change.

    Remnant 2

    I didn't follow the news much on this ... but damn you can multi-class and there are 8 classes. 4 initial and 4 unlockable. Also there are dedicated support classes. Wiki page with all the classes: https://remnant2.wiki.fextralife.com/Classes

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    Oh no ... the writers of Wheel of Time, The Witcher, and Rings of Power are striking ... how will we ever get well written shows? o_O

    The Witcher

    Like The Last of Us, they should have just included the Witcher game writing team from the start. Whatever people they have writing and directing this show is incredibly inept.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Unlike Picard or later seasons of Discovery, show is worth a watch. :emoji_thumbsup:

    Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

    Last Season probably best season. Whole show worth watching. Ending was great. 👍

    XCOM 2

    Been a while, but yeah I remember Xcom-2 making some ... questionable ... gameplay decisions vs. XCom 1. With mods you can fix the issues though. Among multiple reasons I put Xcom-1 and Chimaera Squad above Xcom-2 out of the box, with no mods.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Been said, but shipping with no match-making was huge mistake. Solo slog after 70 is boring as hell. Would be cool to at least queue with others for better XP.

    Games You Regret Spending Time On?

    TBH cannot think of any game. If the game sucked I quit pretty fast. Even Tides of Numenera wasn't that bad. One thing I do regret is time on a forum - the Vanguard Saga of Heroes forum. I had a 2-digit user ID and wasted a ton of time on there debating game mechanics. Only for the game to be a...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Level 12 cap is disappointing but leaves room for expansions. IIRC BG1 had a level cap of like 8-10 (?), BG2 was 20 (?), and the BG2 Throne of Bhaal Expansion was level 40.

    Snowfall

    Yeah so anyone watch all this? Had it recently recommend as a modern The Wire. TBH trailers look great.

    This movie is legit good. 👍

    The Flash (2023)

    Damn this is great. Besides a few wonky CG scenes this is better than anything Marvel has done since Endgame. 👍👍👍

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    About to hit 60 on Frostburn Sorcerer. This is the best of Wow Frost Mage, Diablo 2 Sorceress, and Jaina from HOTS, all combined. Super fun class.

    Lol this dude calls out individuals on Reddit who don't like his music. He's also half responsible for this masterpiece with Sam Hyde.

    John Wick: Chapter 4 (2022)

    Every installment gets more video-gamey. - everyone has bullet proof clothes and you had to break their armor before kill - John takes enough damage to kill an elephant then takes cover to regen to 100% - Magic Tracker Man with killer attack dog special - was dying when they are having gun and...

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    You cannot be serious. Presentation-wise this is vastly better than any Xcom game to date... I'd say it is Chimera Squad 2.0 with a different world skin.

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    Besides the cards how isn't it like Xcom? - turn based tactical team combat - home base hub - recruit, level up, and gear up units - units can get injured or be out for training for days - story unfolds with missions of increasing difficulty - go out on primary and optional missions - day to...

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    Grabbed this for half price. Still on sale. Its Xcom + Card Game + Marvel which turns out to be pretty fun. Game looks great and quality voice acting. On sale well worth the price. :emoji_thumbsup: From the reviews, the DLCs are only a few missions plus a character. Probably not worth...

    Jagged Alliance 3

    I really enjoyed Fallout Tactics. Was one of the earliest games where you could toggle between real-time and turn-based combat. It was less open ended but the combat was solid. You could also drive an APC and shoot out the windows. Running over rats and rad scorpions with the APC was hilarious...
