    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    depends how you look at it. Most people realized it was obviously a sequel, and expected changes. I agree they could have done some of the elements for that better in Part 1, but actually like where it's set up to potentially go (although they can obviously fuck it up even worse depending on...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Depends on if you are set on only turn based old style combat or not. Personally prefer it, but 7 Remake's combat system actually ended up being pretty amazing to play, with a whole lot you can do with it. As for the story, 95% of the game is about as faithful a remake as can be, near the end...

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Like holy fuck, can we get a GM in there that can surround them with ANY bargain steals for one season so we can see how far they could carry them?

    I didn't mind taking the risk on the guy we took in Round 1, but going DB again in Round 2 just seemed like a bad decision with some of the good interior OL that was still on the board at 47. We did grab a couple of OL after that, but it just seemed like they didn't figure out when the runs on...

    Ravens caved. Hope it doesn't turn out like Murray's deal in Arizona so far. I think that's too much for Lamar, personally, but guess we'll see.

    2023 NFL Offseason Thread - Now with less QB sneaks!

    A lot of the reports I read were about it being for Jets 1st this year versus next year. At #13 this year, could easily get a very valuable player, but if Packers settled for Jets' 1st next year, could be a pick in the 20's (with the presumption that a healthy Rodgers would lead that Jets...

    Kinda weird all the supposed road block on the deal was the Packers wanting the Jets 1st (#13) this year outright as part of the deal with the Jets wanting to hold out for future 1st. So they basically send Rodgers and a 5th to swap up 2 spots in mid round 1 this year, get a 2nd and a 6th this...

    I wonder how long it'll be after XVI release before they let out some more Rebirth news. Part 1 ended up with like 4 or 5 different trailers before actual release, didn't it?

    6 game suspension for betting on non NFL games is fucking stupid. League pushes betting lines, odds, FD/DK whatever constantly these days, but if one of their players uses the app while in a team facility they get suspended? Fucking ridiculous.

    Question is what he costs. If it's just a 4th or something, are you really losing out on much not taking it versus risking he can show something once healthy and getting just 1 GM to think he's worth more?

    Not convinced Purdy is surefire starter going forward once healthy. Haven't seen enough from Lance to know whether he's anything or a bust at this point. Played in two monsoon games last year and got hurt.

    I mean, unless something really weird happens, he's not lasting past the Texans at #2 even if Panthers went with Stroud.

    Burrow is going to get the new richest deal whenever he signs his. Maybe $55M a year? Herbert might need to have another good season to really push the bubble...but either way, it's not like the Chargers are going to start over, he's their guy for the foreseeable future.

    Hurts deserves the deal, but I'm not sure the Eagles will be able to dominate for years to come. It is quite a bit of money. Mahomes deal way more team friendly. But NFC is weaker currently, and if the cap goes up a good bit, his deal could end up being a bargain compared to what...

    I mean, you say never, but it's a 5 or 6% chance or something? Honestly I think he should end up in Anaheim. Let the Ducks revival happen.

    One of the few things I liked about EU was in some of the very later 9 book series, Fett plays a pretty integral role at times and more gets discussed about the cloning, Kamino, etc.

    Real bids. My paranoia is Snyder will still somehow not sell the team. But it's starting to feel real.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Not sure which part of SB we're talking about. Post 2.0 content is worst part of the game, really, although the trimming has helped some. Frankly, 4.3-4.5 is some of the best stuff in SB, and a tremendous lead up into Shadowbringers. Granted, even I forgot about a lot of the cutscenes, etc...

    Thing is his play has dropped off a little since the MVP year. His TD% was obviously unsustainable from that season, predictably dropped off. Could they go on a run and make a Super Bowl? Sure, in theory. I wouldn't want to bet on anyone in the AFC, though. Just so stacked. Difference...

    Going to be interesting to see how he fits. Lamb still a really high pick in fantasy next year, but I wonder how rest of targets will shake out with Gallup likely feeling much better another season removed from his injury recovery, plus whatever they do at TE if they don't bring Schultz back.

    Welp, definitely feels like our playoff streak coming to an end this year. Too many injuries all year, keep losing guys. Too many points lost. At this point rest of the year is just about Ovechkin scoring as many goals as he can to lower the number he needs, heck another goal and he'll hit 40...

    Not sure I totally agree with the recap of that SB, as the Packers were absolutely rolling them in the 1st half with Rodgers dropping dimes wherever he wanted a lot of that game (and most of that playoff run). All part of Big Ben's amazing first 10 Super Bowl quarters of his career where he had...

    Having the new hot bar/abilities simplifies keeping them separate, as we've seen plenty in the past history of WoW how abilities being overpowered in pvp or pve and vice versa cause issues with class balancing.

    The narrative on Rodgers is funny, it wasn't just the defense that won that Super Bowl for them, he was lights out in that playoffs other than the Bears game (the actual team who got carried by their D). D hasn't exactly been one of their assets in the playoffs most of the time. There's no...
