Best show overall: the wire. honorable mentions to Simpsons pre season 11, rick and morty, X-files, game of thrones, seinfeld.

2 mages with focus on summoning and then putting some on different magic schools on the side, same as in original sin 1. On the first round I usually summon up stuff and go invisible, get to a safe distance and let the summons clean stuff up. this is one of my gripes with this game, to include...

Agree with the sentiments that this movie easily could have cut down 30-40 mins of long scenery and atmosphere set-up. Overall a 6/10.

Another of those fights with a bunch of weird tech weapons, like good rick vs. toxic rick, good stuff. but yeah, lame ending. Hoo wee, what a season indeed.

for sure RPG of the year, and it definitely improved on the previous. still find the voice acting lacking, and in general I think pretty ridiculous that there is this strong drive to voice act everything in modern RPGs, when it then impacts the dialogue writing. counting the last few years...

been trying the bone widow for a while, and it's good, but the versatility of the buffed incarnate is just the more useful at many times, with knockdowns, whirlwind, range, magic attack etc.

New one is creepier, but lacks the classic "oh yes, they float..." line

Playing lone wolf with 2x summoners on tactician, going pretty well thus far. once I hit lvl 4 and had 10 points in summoning it got pretty OP. Just let incarnate champion take care of things while running around hiding and summoning totems.

this episode... oh jeez... finally getting on with the overarching story

good movie, a pretty smart adaptation of an 80s type of story to the 2010s. it was smarter to divide it up this way in kids first, then adults rather than mixing. it relied a bit too heavily on people seeing/hearing something weird and wandering off to investigate. in the old movie the...

90% on RT with some 90 reviews seems pretty solid for a horror movie.

because successful streamers have realized it is actually like 90% based on personality, not game, that gives a solid, expanding subscriber base. personality comes across far better with a face cam.

have a pretty bad case of baby fever... me and the missus are trying, and have been for a while. it's hard when one has been feeling ready for a family a long time, and in the mid 30s.

good episodes thus far, but they should really revist evil morty soon

The whole lake island scene was so stupid, if the wraiths can survive under water, and try to get up, why would they not just pile up under water and get on top? why wouldn't the white walkers throw spears at them while standing there? was it only one day for gendry to run all the way back and...

since modern fps feel more like cut-scenes, quick-time events and annoying npc characters than proper fps, I've been on the lookout for one for a while. tried out episode I, which is out now. pretty decent so far, feels like quake I

Have to agree on the points made, that the movie was too condensed, trying to introduce a complex world and story in a 1.5 hour timeframe, thus simplifying it into a way too predictable storyline in order to appeal to as large an audience as possible, but still missing a lot of point plots. Like...

the problem is just as much GRRM's bloated writing, and the TV series trying to salvage an already sunken ship. the problem has in large part been the introduction of more and more characters and not getting to the finish line. Euron in the book is just as much of a shoe-in the books as in the...

This was touched upon a bit on Dropped Frames (some fairly high impact twitch bros discussing the latest stream news/games), that since the Bob Ross marathon twitch is doing more TV-series marathons (power rangers and now crunchy roll), side-stepping the streamers. Of course, streamers are not...

So far the best ones were the Swordless Link to the Past and Jedi Knight II.

HotPokket

how come they stopped the bonus streams they used to have a few years back? it was like getting a double agdq, and more relaxed atmosphere.

watched it today. meandering first hour that doesn't really go anywhere, filled with bland impulsive characters one never has a chance to care about. a generic evil guy-robot who listens to classical music and talks about how misunderstood he is... if only they would have replaced his flute with...

I always liked the first three, felt like a very piratey trilogy that should have ended on that. I don't really understand why people disliked them so much, it's an action comedy poking fun at as many things piratey and maritime as they could think of in an over-the-top kind of way. like when he...

well, considering how the books collapsed after somewhere around the middle of wolves of the calla, (probably because King had written the manuscript for that one when his mind and the material was still fresh so that book was still fairly OK) I'm going to give this a go. Even if they skip on...

Pretty good, although the story took a while to get going, felt a lot heavier on just character exploration and interactions. Really sweet to see a space opera setting done well, just weird that it had to be a superhero movie to do it. It went a bit too try-hard on cramming as many jokes as...

This is one of those movies where they should actually have played down the original stuff even more than they already did. Too many small nods that are probably just confusing to most people. Section 9 should have been removed. The batous losing his eyes part felt completely unnecessary. Having...

teaser trailer for the teaser trailer!

No, sexual selection, genetic drift, are all part of natural selection, on the individual level and on the genetic level. Speech through sound is far more effective on animal levels for everyday life. Touch requires proximity, sign requires a clear view of the speaker, whereas sound can travel...

If you're going to discuss natural selection and brain then there's no point in citing natural philosophers and linguists, it's all biology (or if you want to get serious, chemistry and physics). Everything a human does is a result of natural selection. Every part of your brain that pertains to...

of course he has sub mode on, and not only because of spoilers.

a lot of big twitch personalities are trying to sell the game pretty hard, then again they do that for most big titles these days.

Some categories, also considering over a longer time period: Best RPG - Baldur's Gate 2 Best FPS - Half Life Best RTS - Warcraft 3 Best MMORPG - WoW Best TBS - HoMM 3 Best adventure - Quest for Glory Best platformer - Super mario world

it's like that scene in V for Vendetta:

oh well, video removed...

Finally finished the game. overall, pretty good but a lot of mechanical clunkiness: with the whole short pause and sound effect every time one interacts with npcs or stuff, which gets pretty annoying after a while. but the main problem was that it felt a lot shorter than Planescape Torment, and...

the lack of reproduction of studies has many explanations. in part I believe generally there's simply no glory in reproducing others results, it takes a lot of time and won't get you any publication to speak of, which is really all research groups are about. today it's all about "publish or...
