When I finished Shogun I had mostly enjoyed it, but I was excited for a season 2 because basically nothing happened but world building and character development for the entire season. After so much buildup with no payoff I was surprised and glad I never listened to the 56hour audio book that I...

It was fine. It was something a colleague purchased for the office to sort of take turns putting together as a mental break. I inherited it when he left. Same with the moon lander which we also attached a LED thing into. I might just disassemble them both and throw them in the general use...

Yep. Got it as a gift when I was 5 years old in 1990.

Yep! I love seeing my kids enjoy Legos, even if they mostly want to play with new legos and not what i had as a kid :D

Yeah the long shots of the pod people were very enjoyable. I'm guessing they'll transition from disaster recovery to infrastructure change to building a giant orbital message transmitter to aim at Alpha Centauri or whatever, while getting interrupted by whatever third party enters the show to...

What do you predict the story will be this season?

Got the https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/the-going-merry-pirate-ship-75639 set for my birthday, been having fun with my kids putting it together. I also added a new shelving unit to Lego Land (The one with Black Seas Barracuda (Dark Shark) : Set 6285-1 | BrickLink on top)

I'm looking forward to the game too but the writing in this vid sounds like bro just prompted ChatGPT with "Glaze this game so hard to scoop the attention of all the desperate plebs who can't play the game yet."

We'll see how it turns out, but Rhea Sheehorn's character is definitely no Mary Sue teaching us how progressive ideals are the optimal choice. She's a deeply flawed character that was miserable, bitter and petty even before the apocalypse when she had love, fame and money. Now she's the lone...

Yep. I think Caesar II - Wikipedia was my first city builder game.

Any kind of analysis of the character's decisions is pretty foolish without assuming a bunch of information we don't have. But most TV shows with this kind of mystery just kinda get retarded (Severance) once the show explains why things are the way they are, so it's fun to predict and explain...

I've always thought the Turian War would've made a great game, especially if they supported non canonical endings where you can choose to wipe out the Turians, destroy the humans or choose a peacefulish ending that's canonical.

I've enjoyed this very briefly: Everweave It's fine. There's something uhm.... boring? About AI content though. When you're playing a game you're enjoying the labor other humans made for you and every good game surprises, thrills and challenges you. When you're playing an AI game there's none...

Based on the two minutes and ... 24 seconds I watched of this season, Witcher is really turning around. Is that the new main character?

Me as a parent with older kids hearing the sweet sounds of someone else's baby fussing at a restaurant, plane or basically anywhere (as long as the parents are doing their best).

Everyone is different but i find these games more tractable when i just focus on one thing at a time and don't worry too much about the big picture. For 117 that might mean spending a few nights on aqueducts or slavery or bath houses or something and not worry that the gauls are taking my...

Making your own tier list and asking for recommendations might provide better advice! My tier list is based purely on what I enjoyed, not what I think the general litrpg fan would enjoy.

I can definitely see the concept of a teleoperated bipedal robot working out. Especially if you have swappable naughty bits for it.

There's a lot going on there, lol. But Space Exploration and Krastroio 2.

Amazing. *Pushes glasses up* Merging belts without splitters is more UPS efficient, see the top right where I'm merging my steel ingots.

*Skips to middle of video* "Does this breakthrough break encryption?" *Checks bitcoin value* Nope.

I'm just finishing Reborn: Apocalypse 4 and this fits it totally, except that I still recommend it for people digging into the mid-tier LitRPG books. This might be my personal preference but the amount of present-time recaps totally kills the tension. So many critical moments of the story read...

Yeah, Serpent Isle just kinda hits different. If Ultima's world, Britannia, is literally "Let's do Britain but gamify it.", Serpent Isle is, "Let's imagine an entirely new game world". I dunno if they fixed all the issues in the rushed second half of it, but it's still a top CRPG to add to any list.

Yeah Ultima 8 and 9 were kind of a mess for a lot of reasons, and then the Ultima series got consumed by Ultima Online.

Biggest thing that bothered me about Anno 1800 is how the game focuses on the Item system, so you spend so much time basically farming items rather than building your city. I kind of thought to myself I'd enjoy it more if I just ignored that feature, but they are just too powerful to ignore. I...

From a quick read of Resurrected seems like an HD remaster with some QOL, so I'd recommend that.

I dunno about D2 Resurrected, but in the original game depending on your build, D2's necromancer is also one of the few games where you feel like you're raising a literal army of the dead. You can defeat content off-screen while you're just raising skeletons, zombies and a golem to do your bidding.

Diablo 2 would be a crpg if a few hours of unskippable dialog and a combat autoresolve feature were added.

Trailer just dropped. Man is not ready for AI actresses

Would Jim Carey be George's dad?

I thought this clip was interesting: One of the constant complaints I have of the Mandoverse shows, even the episodes I like, is that they are disjointed. They seem to connect one storyboard to the next with incomprehensible plotlines and character decisions. I don't really understand the...
