Shape of Water was competently filmed but the movie was terrible, in my opinion. Going back to his roots of semi-horror will hopefully serve Del Toro better than a smarmy monster romance. I wish he would get on some Cthulhu shit though! Edit - I have no real idea why but I despise Bradley...

Man, the passing of Eastwood is going to be the real end of an era in cinema. His iconic spaghetti Western roles as the wanderer with no name, Dirty Harry, his directorial successes, the world of entertainment will be a lesser place with his absence. He is looking so old and frail, and his...

Love you guys! Yes, I do recall reading MW5 being far more restrictive in the mechlab as compared to Battletech. Lots of people bitched a bit about the specific hardpoints for designated energy, ballistic and missile weapons, but as a non-nerd scrub mech equipper, works just fine for me.

Wow, all you faggots have some sort of beer stick up your ass? Can't have jokes around here. Jokes, people.

WOW. He drank the equivalent alcoholic content of one Canadian Beer. What a hero. My fav Canadian beer of my youth

As soon as I saw the helicopter pad pic with the mist and the evergreens and the water I knew it was Alaska/Yukon/Northern frontier.

So I was having a nap on the couch 2 weeks ago and I woke up with the unflinching desire to play Mechwarrior 5 - no idea why, but the drive was strong!. So in that game I recently acquired my first Atlas and am approaching the last quarter of the game. By the by, I have owned it since...

I cannot possible give this more thumbs up or solidarities. Prior to this league, Dash was a revelation and part of what made the feel and flow of the game awesome. I was more disappointed by this change than all the damage nerfs and mana increases combined.

Replying to my own post, the narcissism. I was too lazy to look for Ronne's post - but MAN you were right about the lack of defense. I admit to being a total scrub on defensive stacking, I usually "make do" but I also usually play melee builds. In early mapping gear this FR totem build with...

Extra totem and faster totem placement. So the Mantle and the Ascension resulted in 2 more totems and significantly faster placement.

My other passion for the last 2 years is the epitome of data-driven game design failure - War Thunder. It has the best armor penetration, locality damage, weapon/ammo modelling of any tank/plane game of all time, and is just a fucking joy to play, IN GENERAL. But as far as I can tell, they...

I decided to try this totem build , and as soon as I put on the Soul Mantle (5L) and got my first Ascension, the clear speed went from ugh to WEEEEEE in the Acts lol. I am actually interested to see it in mapping soonest.

Welp, let's head back to the Expedition League and the updated gameplay for this version of PoE, as reported by Typical Scrub Gamer69. I've been playing Mechwarrior 5 here recently so I am a little behind. I am now at Awakened 5 and running Tier 14 to 16 maps with my Gladiator bleed SSD build...

The best thing about this is that not a single white person is rustled in the slightest. As a matter of fact, I bet most would actually love to have that shirt. The libtards are all "Yeah, Chief TattoosRCool, you show the cis white patriarchy!" and the conservatives are all "Holy shit that is...

Huh. Dawson had a nose job? She is still hot as shit though. The rest of them have not aged well. Other improvements:

The freezer:

Edit - I know, it's obvious, but thought I would post it anyway.

My kid loved this movie. He is under 12. Enough said. I did not watch.

Yeah their "online" addition is really going to push people away, I think. I have hopes that it will provide some additional content as a "GAMES AS A SERVICE" (reeeeeeeeeeee) but it is a net negative so far for sure.

When you read the first paragraph this comes across as AKSHUALLY and Knees to Sharp. But then you read the second and you go - fuck, that is totally right. Jordan spent pages describing the tiniest things, so details are actually pretty important here. By the by, I never did get through three...

Agreed, but that is not really recent (2007!). I admit to thinking of Daniel Day-Lewis and Gary Oldman as comparable amazing character actors as I typed that. Edit - And, let's face it, Ledger's Joker was pretty impressive as well, albeit in a less "dramatic" role if you catch my meaning.

Thread Necro. It is out on Canadian Netflix so I just watched this for the first time. Best movie I have seen in the last 2 years. A feel-good ride it ain't, and I was low level anxious the entire time from the background string soundtrack, the acting, and the awkward situations, but that is...

I despise D3. I mean, it looks okay and plays ok but it is boring and trite and formulaic to a fault. It has no SOUL.

Couple of issues with the Remaster: (1) Dungeons are too fucking dark. Even at the highest brightness they are oppressively dark. On the original, the higher brightness settings made it more bearable, not in the remaster. (2) Dungeon textures are too reflective and shiny under higher lighting...

It's still a slog. Your perspective is askew. I don't think PoE is a slog, but ask people new to the game. For both games, expansions have made it a massive slog. In Grim Dawn I made it to the end of regular difficulty, through one expansion and part of way through another and ran out of...

THIS is the state of the Path of Exile in 2021? Don't disturb the delicate genius of the founder? Or get dogpiled by NOT disturbing the delicate genius? Jesus, I hate the state of us as a goddamn society. Just calmly and logically ask poignant questions that are pertinent and of interest to...

Maybe it is part of the experience, like the shitty low locked resolution. I always felt like D2 ran a little janky no matter how good the machine, apparently that was a feature not a bug.

Dammit, I did NOT know that. Reason to play closed beta now waning. Edit - Every time I start playing D2 I forget about the bottleneck that is Duriel. GD it. Yeah, esp early game as you and everyone said. I am just going to get gut rot from drinking all those blue potions instead. You...

Yes, it is coming back to me now.

Sometimes I would like to know if I died because of a million cuts or some big hit. Was it a bad luck cascade of crits, was it a shock followed by a big crit? Was it just me being stupid and missing my anti-freeze after opening a chest? It would be easier to min/max your defenses if you had...

Yup, It's Diablo II all right. Just spent 15 mins buzzing around the first zone and the opening cave. Looks sharp. Nothing special because they did not increase the resolution. Is that in homage to the original and you can switch back and forth between old and new graphics? Who wanted that...

Socializing is my favorite argument. Cut and paste message. Join team. Port to hideout. Wait for trade window. Inspect item. Trade. Whisper "Thanks!". Leave group. Port home. So socialization, much wow. To the point, I used to hate trading, but nowadays I just raise a couple of...

Ooh I will look at that.

For whatever reason, about 10-15% of the time I use a move skill I get rubber banding. That Bodyswap build would be unplayable for me, I would have no idea where I am most of the time. I play Texas servers from Canada, and it is not that great.

Can't we all remember when they killed some build we love? I recall the nerf to Ghost Pact or whatever the life to ES leech conversion is/was called, and the destruction of the Whispering Ice build as a leader. The poet's pen build with the exploding bodies and the teleporting - the game could...

Picture heading: Himmler teaching the other German school boys what they will do with boys who wear dresses when they grow up, circa 1909. Next picture not related.

I have to say, this is the first league in several years where I am taking a long AF time to kill low red map bosses, and even some tankier high yellow map bosses. I am still not gear min/maxxed yet, but I clear these maps likety-split, but still slog through the Division-level hp-sponge...

Really? I prefer Blade Fall/Blade Blast (Blade Vortex can eat a bag of dicks, what a horrible playstyle skill, I've done it three times and wanted to /wrist every time). I got Chieftain with this up to high 70s before I realized Ultimatum was done the next day, was thinking about restarting it...

I've said it before but I kickstarted this bitch from day 1. And I still can't get into it much. I played it to endgame a couple of months ago before a wipe but only dabbled in the final systems. I started again here a couple of weeks ago but only got like 2 hours in and just went back to...
