    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I'll start by saying that I own both consoles so it's not a huge deal for me personally. That said, I think it's pretty awful deal, more exclusives is not a a good thing for consumers in general, and MS will obviously make as much of this exclusives and I don't blame them for it. Also, I don't...

    It's awesome to finally see Hugh Jackman in a classic Wolverine costume. :)

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Having played the early access, I think the game is awesome and I’m excited to play it. That said the gay bear sex scene won’t happen in my playthrough as I’ll be making different choices.

    Ok, gay romance and sex scene with a bear are in, this is called spectrum right? :)

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I have both consoles so I can play whatever I want. That said exclusives sucks. I usually play games on the PS5 because that's where all my friends are, and even while we play different games, we are usually in a group chat so for that reason, I'd prefer the deal not to go through but it's not...

    Final Fantasy 16

    I'm about halfway in, and loving it so far. The story is great, much darker than I ever expected and the characters are good so far. I think Clive has a nice story arc so far. The villains are pretty interesting too, a lot are truly despicable. It has a nice pacing too, and still has some...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Dammit, I knew getting up at 5AM to play for 2 hours would end up being a bad idea at my age, and here I am at work and it's 10:45 and I can't stop yawning already. I'm too old for this shit.

    Final Fantasy 16

    So the plan was to play this in the last 2 weeks of July while I am on vacation since I am playing Diablo 4 and Black Desert new expansion right now. Seeing all the great reviews and everything and I was weak and got the game last night and started playing this morning before work for about 2.5...

    Fast X (2023)

    I think this has a reported production budget of $340M, add marketing of $80-100M to that and this does not look like it's going to turn in a profit. It's most likely going to affect the planned sequels, either they won't happen or will have to cut down on budget by a lot.

    Final Fantasy 16

    It’s going to suck but I’m waiting for the my vacation in the last 2 weeks of July to play this. I’m still playing Diablo 4 with a friend and going through Black Desert new expansion so not a lot of time for this. I’m going to need to avoid the thread in case of spoilers.

    Remakes You Would Like To See.

    If something was good, leave it alone. If something was bad but could have been good if done properly then why not. As a general rule though no, don't make remakes, be creative and take chances and create something new...that's so much more exciting. There's so much more room to be awed and...

    Black Desert

    Only in BDO is getting a 2nd drop of something after 3 months considered luck, in most games that's terrible luck. :)

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    Ok, I’m excited. I’m a sucker for Star Wars. This looks great, some stealth gameplay, shooting, pet to interact with stuff remotely, speeder chase, dialog options, space battle. And i like that you seem to be playing as an outlaw rather than a Jedi.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I'm slow as hell, I'm 49 and maybe halfway through Act 2. :) I'm doing all the side content I find though, ended up doing a bunch of dungeons twice since I explore it and then get a side quest that sends me back there. I don't mind though, I'm playing with a friend and we're having a good time.

    Not only that but they all bought deluxe edition for early access. :)

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    My issues with the PSVR2 is not the price, although it’s expansive. Like all VR there’s very few games I’m interested in. VR is still missing that killer game that’s going to make me buy one in combination with a steady flow of good games.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I played a little bit with a friend, only made it to the first town. No complaint so far. I don’t know if there has been issues, but on pc it was a flawless launch for us so far. Looking forward to playing some more over the weekend.

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    Yeah saw a few video and this is looking absolutely awful. I expected NCSoft to have a good game plagued by p2w stuff, apparently its and awful and most likely plagued by p2w stuff.

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    So got around to watching this, and wasn’t impressed. I actually like Kang and his story, but too much happening and way too much CGI that ended up distracting. What happened to Evangeline, terrible haircut made her look like she’s in her mid 50s, and she’s just 43(had to look it up). She’s not...

    Woot, just got my first dream horse after 18 attempts. Got the unicorn Dine. I don’t try very often still have mats for 9 more attempts. I guess I need a new T8. :)

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Well 2 teams that have never won a cup are up 2-0 in their respective series. This could be a fun final if both go through.

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    There’s probably a month or so worth of fun to be had. As far as cash shop go I’m usually fine with spending money on a cash shop about the equivalent of a subscription. So $50 or so every 3 months I play. I don’t see myself playing this long term unless there’s some feature we haven’t seen.

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    OT again, at this rate whoever wins This series is going to be too tired for the final.

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    That’s not surprising to me. They use to always have a Star Wars or Marvel tv show running at all time, maybe 2 weeks break at most between them. They haven‘t kept to that pace in a while. Also they are a lot slower to have their movies streaming after their theater release. Both these things...

    STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor™ (PS5, XSX, Steam, Epic) - early 2023

    Well I just finished the story. Really enjoyed it. Like the first game, the story and how well they capture the Star Wars setting are the strongest point of the game. Gameplay wise it improves on the first one but it’s more or less the same and while it’s great at the beginning toward the end...

    STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor™ (PS5, XSX, Steam, Epic) - early 2023

    I’m playing this on PS5 right now and having a lot of fun. Mostly using the blaster stance, it’s kinda fun shooting people in the face point blank. :) I just had an interesting sequence with Merrin, you know I wouldn’t mind a spin-off for her, she’s badass, funny and has a cool power set. Like...

    Horizon 2: Forbidden West

    I finished the dlc, it was ok. The issue I had is that it takes me a while to get back into the combat, not the controls which are easy to remember but remembering which weapon to use to do the best type of damage, remembering the diverse abilities that I have and which is best when...

    The Mandalorian

    While I did enjoy this season, and the show itself overall. Djin is fairly bland character overall. The best part of the show has often been what happens around him, rather than what happens to him if that makes any sense. Also Grogu has run it's course, it did a long time ago if you ask me...

    Super Mario Bros. (2022)

    Now, mind you I haven't kept in touch with the Super Mario universe very closely, but I've seen a few article saying they did right by Princess Peach in the movie by changing her from a damsel in distress to a pretty badass character which sounds woke to me.

    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)

    I'm betting on Neville being trans. Starts out as a male, insecure and clumsy like in the movies, transitions into female and becomes confident and badass by the end. Perfect arc for wokeism, weak when misgender, powerful when properly gendered.

    The Marvels (2023)

    It didn't look that bad to me to be honest...maybe aside from first CGI scene of Monica in the space suit, that looked so fake. I said this a few times in the Ms. Marvel tv show, but the girl playing Kamala is great, she has that innocence when something cool happens, or disgusting with cat. I...

    Horizon 2: Forbidden West

    I loved the first one, one of my top 5 of all time easily. I liked the second one, mostly because I love the gameplay and it was still awesome but the story was disappointing, especially all the sidequests that were cut and paste..."Oh so and so is trying to prove themselves, but got into...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    So what we are going to discover in the first movie set in the past is the first person to feel the force was female, and she was able to commune with it peacefully and that peace existed in the galaxy. Then a male touch it and was turned to the dark side, and that all males were seduced by the...

    Ahsoka

    I liked the trailer, the casting of the rebel characters seemed to be on point. So I'm cautiously optimistic about this. My bar is pretty low these days, not being bad would actually be good. :)

    No Man's Sky

    These guys just don’t stop with the free updates. I wonder how they still make enough money to do this. Are people still buying enough of the game to justify this after all these years.

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    I watched this last night. I enjoyed it a lot, for me it's great escapism. I leave my brain at the door, and just enjoy it for what it is. I think the first one was better overall. I preferred the story of the guy who goes native, than pushing the family aspect of the second one. I'll agree...
