    They do that with everything. Back in 1995 there was the Collision in Korea, a professional wrestling event put together by Antonio Inoki in conjunction with WCW. The Norks no sold the entire two-day show up until Inoki versus Rick Flair to close things out at the end of day two.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Your baseline configuration is all of the tutorial armor in combination with the Lavastorm quest items capped off with some of the more common Gates of Discord droppables and quest rewards. Raiders might have a couple of things from lower tier bosses (Va'Dyn, Lcea Katta, Grieg Venificous...

    Just a mannequin torso was enough to keep Dahmer from killing people for a while until it fell apart. He might of been a contributing member of society if he had a quality silicon Cloud doll he could fuck in the eye socket after work.

    That's not the case. The fanciest stuff he's wearing came from the first Kael raids where you'd be rather foolish to pass out premium droppables to strangers.

    If you're raiding than the Vicious profile is not inconsistent with a high play time person. That Necromancer is below average for even medium play time.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    In the books you've got these little drips and drabs throughout the series with people speculating all the way back during the usenet days about Jon's true heritage. After a quarter century of waiting to see where it all goes the answer is basically nowhere. Oh hey I'm actually legitimate...

    Jon Snow never clashing swords with the Night King after all the build up and with that being all his arc is legendarily bad storytelling.

    The D&D thread

    That's really the proper criticism versus listing all the bits and bobs that are shitty like I did. It's so very "gamey" with all the RP taking the backseat. The players and the DM aren't constrained or anything but it's like taking a squad-based small unit tactics table top miniatures game and...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The corpses of Star Wars and Star Trek can go on for a quite a while longer. They had long runs and build big fan bases. For a whole lot of people Game of Thrones is just a show that shit all over itself in the final seasons and barely even memorable a few years later.

    The D&D thread

    It was/is even worse than that. WotC tried to repackage 4th edition as Dungeons and Dragons Essentials. Basically they stripped it way down while claiming it was compatible with the existing system. That was true but aside from very specific cream skimming you would never incorporate anything...

    The Adams Family being good and having a sequel that was good is almost a minor miracle. The Adams Family pinball machine is the best selling and maybe greatest pinball machine of all time.

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    WWZ can eat my ass. The book is excellent. The movie has one or two lines of dialogue from the book plus it kept the title AND NOTHING ELSE while also being really fucking generic. Oh hey, the main character's daughter is diabetic and that will be a source of conflict and none of these people...

    The D&D thread

    Oh yeah, most of them were just cheap looking. There was also an incentive to include overpowered shit in them so someone would buy your book versus someone else's. There were also really gimmick ones like all adult themed wank or all evil stuff.

    While 3.0 and 3.5 were very good editions of Dungeons and Dragons the SRD opening gaming license thing led to every game company making a d20 version of their game and a sea of d20 products on the shelves. Shadowrun d20, Deadlands d20, 7th Sea d20, Star Wars d20, Legend of the Five Rings d20...

    4th edition launched in a terrible state. Aesthetically the core three books themselves were all really bad. You put a 5th edition phb next to a 4th edition phb and flip through them both and it stands out how much effort went in to 5th and how little in to 4th. The 4th edition classes are all...

    This scene for sure. Looking at the Wikipedia entry it looks like the author was drew some inspiration from the student that disappeared back in '79 that got blamed on DnD. Kid goes missing, must be DnD, has nothing to do with DnD, people still bring it up years later.

    I know now it's an anti-DnD movie but I had no clue of that when I first saw it. I knew what DnD was. I knew about some of the Christian fundie outage over it. The movie does almost nothing to establish its the game that messes Tom Hanks up. He's the only one that goes crazy and its very plainly...

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    There's certainly an argument to be made regarding what is and is not up for consideration in a discussion of worst movies. No, your shot-on-video puke gore fetish video is not a film. There's a level of time, money and effort that needs to go in or it just doesn't count.

    Audition was it for me regarding gore. I know it's not on the same level as what would come after but that was the one that taught me that I don't give a single fuck about torture porn. It has zero of the things I like about the horror genre and I don't find any part of it scary. Reading a...

    I linked this somewhere else but I'll do it again here He explains in as "don't ban me please" as possible what happens in everything down a couple levels and it gets really bad. A Serbian Film only makes it down three steps. It gets so much worse.
