    Dragon blood is probably good for something right ? Fuck it, I'm getting some buckets. lol.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    You can use Fane's mask regardless of what race you are. Death fog is the king of cheese though true, right from the starter boat ;p

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    I can confirm this one, so I'd imagine the others the author did are also legit. It's designed for soloing honor mode ( hardest difficulty plus 1 save and wipe = game over ), but you can use it in a two person party if you don't feel like putting any effort into combat ;p

    Archer

    I've had a few good laughs out of this current season, last episode especially. This is more than I can say for most of the last few seasons, so there's definite improvement.

    Magic-Smithing I didn't like as much, it was a bit erm, 'flat' I guess ? Very little emotional resonance from the dialogue or fighting etc. I think it's just writing skill, so could improve with time. It was still ok though, will keep reading. Ar'Kendrithyst I caught up to current, and really...

    Spoiler up chap 35 or so? You were right with this recommendation though, I am partway through this one and really enjoying it. The plot has managed to surprise me at almost every turn, which is rare these days. Elliot is a dickhead, but I dig his sense of humor ;p

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    If that's the 'smoking gun' that shows how mean the devs are to them, then I think it's safe to dismiss the entire rant as pathetic whining.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Finding the mistakes and issues with something someone else built, and building something from scratch are very different skillsets. In my experience, there isn't a lot of overlap, think of authors vs editors for example.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I thought 3x1 was ok. Disco has many flaws, but it is super pretty, you have to give it that. I agree with Grizzle though, she like straight up murders 20 or so cops. They didn't appear to be particularly objectionable either, and approximately zero fucks were given as to their fate ;p

    I am a little vexed by the current Infinite Worlds arc - don't the wardens have some huge hate-on for people who do essence/stat stealing ? I seem to remember him having to prove that all his previous victims were willing. He clearly doesn't give a fuck about that now though ;p Also Zach is...

    Nah, the different serials vary quite a lot. TWI, for example, tends to be mostly self contained chapters rather than longer continuing arcs.

    The Boys

    The irony of all the whining about this is that in the show, 'Girls get it done' is *literally* a cynical marketing slogan from the PR branch of an evil megacorp. An additional level of irony is that none of the 'girls' in question actually manage to get *anything* done. It's unlikely this is...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    You call that pay to win ?! What they really need to is have popups when you are losing that show your character beaten and up and crying with the equivalent of 'insert coin to continue' plastered across the screen ;p

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    They are also one of the highest dps of the all the classes IIRC, mostly because of the ability that lets them learn any other classes spells - smite and endless quiver being particularly broken examples.

    Will Wight

    Lindon missed out on a prime opportunity for a guilt-free threesome there 8). Also Malice thinking that being married to Fury would be a reward is pretty funny, even if he did get the comedy highlight of the book Overall a great addition to the series.

    First EverQuest, 3 screenshots

    Yeah, there was some data mining going on, I data mined and maintained a list of item haste values because they were too stubborn to put important shit like that in tooltips. I agree completely that you aren't going to end up in that situation these days unless noone gives a shit about your game.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Potency conduits are different for each class and spec, so it's not that. You only get 4 per spec though, so only being able to use 2 gets you some actual choice - with being able to use 3/4 you just skip the shittiest one, and everyone will use the same 3. Everyone will *probably* still try to...

    Mmm, maybe. It buffed the lowbies up to level 30, and presumably effects the entire army, no matter how big it is, so it's more a matter of using it at an incredibly shitty time in a more or less panic.

    I think the political organization of Delve is deliberate, in that it is looking at how individuals with godlike power shape society around themselves. The wardens are the result of one uber-powerful person deciding that she is going to enforce order on the world, something that could never...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I think it's simpler than that - as part of the settlement they agreed to pay money to WOTC for 'licensing', and they can't afford to pay it any more.

    Hah, that was great. I even forgive the Deep for shitting up this season just for that moment of hilarity during ultra-violence.

    Away

    This was pretty eh, but at least it wasn't 'Another World'. Was sort of serious science, not as much as 'For All Mankind', but better than average in that respect. The interpersonal drama was silly and fabricated though - are we to believe they just grabbed a bunch of people at random and...

    Utopia

    My take after 4 episodes is this one isn't bad, other than a lack of subtlety, but just unnecessary really. I will say though, the amazon R.B. is a pale plastic imitation of the UK one. I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out the UK actor is actually a lizard person.

    Dreamhaven Games

    It's not a capitalist thing, just the bigger an organization is, the more people you have who don't give a shit about the stated goals of that organization. It's not like a state owned game studio where everyone is paid the same amount is going to do any better on that front. This isn't even...

    Jessica Hyde from the UK show is what is commonly referred to as a 'right cunt'.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Shackle is worthless in all situations. Death's Due is best at aoe, single target and tanking, even after being nerfed in 3 different ways. Swarming Mist's uptime is too low to make any impact outside of giant pad pulls, which won't happen due to target caps. Abomination Limb is best at pulling...

    True, but like secret kungfu moves or dope archery skills, it's still less effective than a basic handgun.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    No it isn't. Almost everything is unfinished in beta, let alone polished. At BFA launch you could at least level up without getting trapped by broken quests on mandatory questlines, and once you got there islands and warfronts at least worked properly, even if they were dogshit. Unless they...

    The Boys

    She is basically Claire from Heroes and has the same problems - no offensive ability, no range, no mobility, and regeneration doesn't stop you getting hurt, it just stops you from staying that way. This doesn't help you if, for example, you get folded up into a small bag and then buried in...

    The Boys

    I though that would be the obvious conclusion - Stormfront wants stable compound-v so she can make an army of nazi supersoldiers, Edgar wants stable compound-v so he can make a shitload of money. That's plenty of reason for them both to work on it without shared values or motivations.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    My favorite is the end of the night fae play. Jump on dragon to fly 30 ft that way. Can't just walk it, not an optional step, must jump on dragon. Obviously you can't jump on the dragon. They have fixed and re-broken this quest at least 4 times so far, which says great things about QA, source...

    Yeah, an actor able to play multiple different characters so well that you can tell them apart when they are pretending to be each other is not something you see every day.

    I think the implication is that the church of Mithras nuked all it's enemies back into the stone age.

    Not sure if randomly weird, or weirdly random. I kind of lost interest partway through the first episode.
