    No Man's Sky

    Played it for a few hours last night (ps4 obviously) and I really liked what it was. Flying around the surface of planets looking for ?s and random outcroppings of stuff, then crafting/trading and upgrading. I can see dumping a lot more time into this pretty easily. The inventory thing is a...

    Arrival (2016)

    Space Whales, clearly. Amy Adams will have to travel back to 1984 to learn Humpback in order to tell them not to destroy our planet. Looks interesting, actually. And the low budget actually sort of makes me think that the story will be good since there won't be tremendous amounts of CGI...

    For the record, I had a couple of drinks and a literal ball of blubber was lying to me on the phone about his weight and diet antics. I don't like doing multi-post sprees if I can possibly avoid it, so I edited it into my previous post. Wasn't actually targeting anyone here, just my slightly...

    Are You Team Taylor or Team Kim?

    I think we should put Trex in charge of a forum. That worked out super well in the past.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You're still talking about hardmodes as if they weren't completely different dungeons outside of a similar art style. It makes it very difficult to believe you have any end game FFXIV knowledge at all to draw from, so your comparisons on endgame content fall very flat. You do type a lot of...

    The D&D thread

    That's actually been one of my go-to philosophies when DMing. If it's just something that happens vs. a combat roll or something incredibly specific like the final attempt to disarm a trapped door that everyone knows is going to blow up if done wrong, I tend to err on letting the roleplaying...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Tanaan was basically one big daily grind, very much akin to the beast tribe stuff where successive tiers (or in WoW's case, flight in Draenor) was locked behind a daily wall. They didn't actually add a new zone (you could go into it during WoD previously, it just wasn't really populated) so...

    Terrible Jokes Thread

    I heard that as a busload of nuns going off a cliff. Classics. I'd link that "Better Nate than Lever" joke but it's a combination of too much effort and TL;DR fodder. I'm not sure why I know jokes that apparently involve Texans, but I do. Three guys are on a trek through the jungles of...

    The RPG Thread

    According to Wikipedia, only 1.8million units were sold worldwide. And that's with the market penetration of the SNES behind it. 1.5m were sold in Japan, while only 330,000 were sold total in other countries. It's incredibly popular with people who played it, and folks like us who congregate...

    MTG thread

    Probably depends on how much money you spend/spent on the game. I had a couple of mox jets from Alpha and some other power 9, but I actually played with the cards from day one vs. putting them into sleeves for selling later. I was 13 though, and had adult me known about relative value I would...

    Well, our autist count is definitely up to at least -1- now. Thanks for joining, Himeo! See you in 6 months. You forgot to link one of the "sugars are killing everyone" books, though. -1 points for execution.

    2016 Olympics. - Brazil

    Judo isn't a team sport hah. Yeah there's a lot of good players internationally and it is definitely played all over the world. What I was getting at is that each country is going to have a couple of good to decent guys, while our olympic basketball teams tend to be consistently stacked with...

    2016 Olympics. - Brazil

    It's been almost 30 years since that was a thing =| Even then, it seems silly to not allow pro players who are the best at what they do to compete in a competition specifically designed to put the best each nation has against each other. To me it just seems like a stupid sport to include in...

    <Fires of Heaven> WoW Guild - [Horde] [Hyjal-US]

    Given how OP heirlooms and everything else is pre-80 (at a minimum) using healer in the DF is like queueing as a DPS that occasionally casts a heal. It's hilarious.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Combination of both, probably. EQ had such a specific atmosphere given the time it was a big deal. Almost zero competition with incredible time in game requirements. Every server was effectively a microcosm of internet culture at that time. There were known trolls, power users (uberguilds)...

    And you feel ok? If you do, hey go get'em. But that's under what a 100lb 8 year old needs to consume to not die. I get that you have some reserves to work from, but that process is almost 100% across the board sort of debilitating. Theoretically you should feel like complete shit and barely...

    I was always curious why you disappeared on fohguild.org. You had shittons of multiquote posts with links that you clearly spent time on, and then poof. What was the reason for that, if I may ask? You were gone for a long ass time and then the forum imploded, then back to normal on rerolled...

    The Studio Ghibli Thread

    The dubbed version is superb. So is Howl's Moving Castle's dub version. It's been almost 20 years since I watched either Kiki or Totoro, so no idea how those would hold up. But Howl's and Mononoke were extremely well acted in English.

    2016 Olympics. - Brazil

    I'm always surprised that there's an olympic basketball event. It'd be like if there was an olympic football ('murica football) event. Literally the absolute best players in the world come to -one- country. It isn't like Soccer and their being powerhouses in multiple euro/south...

    New ownership might change some things as various contracts run out. UFC is still the absolute biggest stage in the MMA world though, so even if they re-up with Reebok it's not like the majority of fighters would jump ship. I have no idea how much money UFC was/is making from the deal, but as...

    The Studio Ghibli Thread

    I really enjoyed Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, and Howl's Moving Castle. To a lesser extent, I liked Kiki's Delivery Service and My Neighbor Totoro. Really I thoroughly enjoy the art style. To me it is the flip side of the coin that is the Project A-Ko "anime" look, and they both remind...

    T2: Trainspotting (2017)

    I haven't read the books, but loved the movie. I'm assuming something happens between whatever the first movie is based on and this, because Begbie would have absolutely killed Renton after he ganked all the cash(Minus Spud's portion). Especially with the state of mind Begbie ended the movie in.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I love these threads. May they continue unto perpetuity. The only thing I really liked from EQ compared to games that have done basically every aspect substantially better in recent years, is the lack of playerbase. Every real game these days hits 1m followers before it releases, there's...

    Warhammer 40k

    Dawn of War 1 is fun but a -huge- slog through the first campaign (Space Marines in the vanilla game) and it doesn't really hit its stride until Dark Crusade. The reason for the slog feeling is that you will eventually just need sheer numbers and maxed research stuff to really destroy the...

    The RPG Thread

    I mean I guess it is an rpg. I played it on PS2, and while the slowdowns (and there were -tons-) were annoying, it was definitely more sidescroller than RPG in my opinion. What little I've read of the remaster tell me it's basically the same sans slowdowns and with a bit better graphical...

    It sort of depends largely on how much you weigh and how active your lifestyle is, as well as how much carbs you were consuming before making the switch. The more active you are, the faster you'll burn through your excess glycogen stores and start progressing into ketosis. Expect a bit of an...

    Does nearly everyone under 24 seem autistic to you?

    Honestly, sub-24 folks are not autistic, or even close. Granted, we -have- upgraded the autism spectrum to include a few more observable activities/predilections, but I don't think it encompasses the youth as much as it is a more global awareness. The various people who are simply more...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    A substantially more powerful handheld system that also acts as a standard yet dated console when needed. I know there's a lot of doom and gloom, but handhelds have never exactly been a Nintendo weak point. Depending on how the unveiling goes and how they promote it in the media, it could be a...
