    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Not exactly... for unfair, almost all the builds have 2 or 3 different class dips. I'm not sure I have seen a single pure class meta build. My first playthrough was Oracle Angle with a reach weapon on a mount. I think I gave grave singer to a companion, but then ending up turning the two melee...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    The Oracle is versatile and strong and fits pretty perfect with Angel. The War Oracle with reach weapon can build into monster melee even. Early game on a caster heavy party in indeed a little bit harder, but buffs and pets are king by mid game. Buffs are the most tedious part, and I would...

    Pax Dei

    Both "balanced" and ganking pvp can be fun for different types of people, but one type seems easier to manage and retain players. Just to clarify, by balance, I mean relatively balanced, not e-sports "fair" fight bullshit homogenization. The most fun I had with WoW pvp was in Vanilla, facing...

    Home Improvement

    Ethanol free gas is hard to find in most big cities, so if you are far away from the rural areas, it might not be worth driving out to get some. Boating places on the lake are the most likely places to find it, but of course they usually sell at higher prices. That website I linked looks old...

    Home Improvement

    Possibly depends a lot on location. Here in Texas, people have been mowing since early to mid march, so 3 or 4 months of sitting isn't going to need all that mess. While I have family who run a lawn care business up north of the Mason-Dixon, and they do all that shit on all their equipment every...

    Song of Conquest

    Oops, brain fart on typing out that release date. As for HOMM clones/adjacent games, it can kinda be more of the same'ol same'ol, but I usually get enough play time out of these types of games. I did run into a bit of burnout with King's Bounty Crossworld, where I lost interest about half way...

    Been watching this one for a while. Finally out of EA on April 20 Edit: May 20 (Brain malfunction, looked up at the current date and wrote April instead of May). https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/867210/view/4204748561350605603

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    I even did a quick search on google after posting, to see how old the character was (older than I thought) and the quick glance at the wiki bio failed me:

    Wait, what? I thought Jug has been a X-men villain for 40+ years.

    The Video Thread

    Posted in the weather thread, but good enough to go here. Dude chases a mile+ (1.6km) wide tornado (probably) and gets within a 100ish yards (91m) of the wall: He also chased 3 other "smaller" tornadoes, on that same stream (link: 1:14:56 and 2:51:32).

    Weather

    I've tried to chase tornadoes before, but never get "lucky." Last time was when I was out in the field, driving to a job and the weather got bad. My co-worker was going nuts about driving toward the storm, so I had to turn around...

    Anyway, here are some videos of yesterday's tornadoes: A (mile+ wide?) tornado in Iowa: Different view of the same one (probably). He gets rather close, at the end (he also chased 3 other "smaller" tornadoes, on his stream (link: 1:14:56 and 2:51:32): No sound and all you can see is...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I'm super paranoid around electricity, but that looks like none of the batteries hook up in parallel until they are plugged in to whatever item interfaces between the batteries, the house (inverter?), and the car. Although it also looks like he used a male outlet on the battery side (at the end...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    The demon must been getting some good hits/crits/saves to kill the mindflayer so fast. For tactician, most of the time he should last 4, maybe 5 turns with good rolls, since the mindflayer AoE stun seemed fairly hard for the demon to resist and he usually fires that ability off right away.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Get gud son, and read/listen. The mindflayer friend tells you to get to the ship controls, meaning you don't have to kill a single thing on the last fight of the tutorial, if you don't want to. Of course most people are going to kill at least the first two imps and people who read spoilers are...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That Tesla is like most other 4 door cars in that they are "ugly" but usually make up for it in other areas. If going by exterior looks alone, I would rather have a 2020 Honda Civic Coupe.

    Well, if you are counting Pluto, it would be planet 13 or 14 (not including Ceres), since there are multiple bodies around the size of Pluto in the Kuiper belt (which Pluto is also in).

    Woodworking

    My dad owned one for a long time and used it fairly regularly for home maintenance projects (never as a substitute to a table saw, that I know of). He still has all 10 fingers. I also used it, probably a dozen or so times, in place of a miter and for cross cuts for length on MDF that's already...

    There is no gay sex scenes or even overt gay characters, that I remember, it's just hinted at, in parts (there is girl/girl stuff though). The first 2 seasons are great, the 3rd season is still good, and the 4th season is above average when compared with most everything on TV today. Plus it...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I can't think of a worse activity in WoW than grinding rep, which was a major contributor to burnout for me. So the human racial kept me raiding with friends longer because that 10% would equate to at least a week or two of chores that I no longer had to do.

    Fallout

    I wasn't even talking about the show, but @Homsar saying he uses a pipe wrench on nuts and bolts when he cant find (or is to lazy to get) one of the numerous better tools for the job. Show/game wise, it's kinda ludicrous that anything would be functional after 200 years without having access to...

    Fallout

    Using the wrong tool for the job is how you strip nuts and make more work for yourself, instead of walking over to your tool box or driving to the store to get the right tool. A pipe wrench is at least 5th down the line on tools that should be used if you have absolutely no way to get or fix a...

    I didn't watch the last season with Cavil in it (since he announced he was leaving before it even aired) as a way to support a gaming bro just trying to make the show true to the rest of the IP. I thought that was season 4, though, and the announcement above was that they were done after the...
