    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    The ultimate buffbot combo IMHO is: Sylvan Sorcerer + Animal/Community Domain Cleric. Every good Arcane and Divine buff plus two pet tanks. Make the pets Leopards and they will have higher AC than 90% of main tank builds without barding. So basically 2 character slots gives you every buff and...

    Surprisingly well done video on the history, mechanics, and current state of TF2:

    House of the Dragon

    This episode was the most classic GOT. Show is getting better. If anyone watched The Tudors, great show, and this episode is reminiscent.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Arondir. Yeah he's probably one of the best actors in the show. Show is decent but some real questionable direction. That slow mo horse was cringe. Also that CG warg was like stop motion. Horrible.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Watched the 2nd episode. TBH there's not many weakest links here. Is it LOTR? No ... but it is well done. There's never been female Dwarves on screen and the lady playing Durin's wife absolutely nailed the part. 👍

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Not bad TBH. But has more of an Elder Scrolls TV show vibe than LOTR.

    Nope (2022)

    Well done and a pretty damn original premise. Some genuinely funny moments and looks superb. A bit long though and a couple of questionable plot decisions. Worth streaming for sure. 3.5 / 5. 👍

    The Sandman

    This bonus cat shit is absurd lol? 👎 Anyway enjoyed the main plot. Best episodes were Cereal Convention and the guy who chose to live forever. Every episode had some good stuff though. Yeah a few miscasts, but Death, Corinthian, and Lucienne were great. Also grandma's solicitor was like a...

    House of the Dragon

    Yeah there's no real mystery compared to the first run. It can still be a good show without that. But the mystery really helps.

    The Expanse: A Telltale Series

    I'll probably support it because Expanse. And pray there is a Mass Effect : Expanse clone. :emoji_pray:

    House of the Dragon

    Was decent. But yeah no start of episode mystery (bodies in the North) or end of episode hook (Bran chucked off tower) IIRC.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    If you wanna save yourself a lot of trouble follow this starter guide: After that check a bunch of early to mid-game rune farm guides. You can get to 100+ pretty easily without progressing much of the game.

    The Ascent

    Picking this up again since I quit due to bugs on release. Looks and plays great. Some caveats: - had to start over because original character had game breaking bug (cyberdeck bugged, no way to fix it) - manually back up your save files!!! (since Elden Ring I do this religiously now) - they...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    The tradeoff is "needing less content" vs. running 24/7 customer service, running your own servers, databases, login system, vastly higher network requirements, etc. Making some zones and quests is vastly cheaper than bare minimum MMOG infrastructure ...

    Industrial? (Ministry, CombiChrist?)

    IMHO the best Skinny Puppy track:

    Industrial? (Ministry, CombiChrist?)

    KMFDM remix of Skinny Puppy that is possibly better than the original? Kill Memory Crash would have been considered industrial classic if they were from the 90's:

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Said it before but ... just make this a COOP RPG game. Any low budget MMOG is gonna be hacked to oblivion. Not even Blizzard, Valve, or Epic can 100% stop hackers. Everyone besides them has ZERO chance. New World had Amazon budget and it was hack ridden. Just make this a damn COOP RPG.

    Punk Music

    Underrated 90's band. They went major label after the Green Day rush, but never got that big. Every track on this is solid: This was their first big track was 1989 but the whole album was low budget. A complete remaster would be nice.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    On PC, but everything feels a bit snappier and the graphics seem a bit crisper after patch? I dunno if placebo affect or they made engine upgrades. I have not changed any settings.

    How much real money have MMOs made you?

    Sold Vanilla WoW Tauren Warrior on PVP server for $300 on Ebay. Sold TBC Gnome Rogue for $250 on PlayerAuctions or similar site . At that point IIRC eBay banned game account sales ... 🤔

    This doesn't look horrible but not great either. They are sitting on Dragonlance which could be the next LOTR but with better characters.

    Movie wasn't terrible just a total misfire on director. The Evil Dead is campy but totally out of place for this movie. 😵

    Clerks III

    Uhhh yeah. Thread might be overreacting. This seems decent IMHO (at least compared to Smith's recent trash). Speaking of Clerks 2 .... ass-to-mouth with Rosario Dawson, yes please. :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_thumbsup:
