What's wrong with women being lawyers? What about all those "high-powered lawyer girlboss" characters in movies and shows? They win all their cases easily while also trying to juggle a love life involving their simp, who is handsome and rich of course.

That was your takeaway from that absurdly close fight? "Hurr durr lady boys"? I actually agree with you on guys playing chicks in MMOs, when it's a largely first-person game and other people are interacting with you as if you're a chick, that's kinda fucked up. Never played a chick in an MMO...

Bayle, what an absolutely insane fight. Totally worthy of the title of "superboss" alongside Radahn. Had a much tougher time with this than Malenia even. Look at the HP remaining on all the meters, and look at the complete lack of heals remaining. Just a hell of a fight.

Seems to me like there might be more evidence of Atlas being a craft than there is of Atlas being a natural phenomenon, at this point. They can't explain it's behavior, and every attempt to attribute it to natural causes falls apart. This also calls into question what the hell Oumuamua actually...

Have cleared everything in Shadow of the Erdtree that I've found, except Bayle and Radahn. As we can see here, I can still barely even scratch Bayle. Using +25 Keen Backhand Blades with S tier Dex scaling and it's still chip damage. Unreal. Going to have to go back to 2x Blood Curved Swords (the...

Figured out why this show doesn't feel big or important. I've never once felt like Earth is in any kind of peril from the Xenomorph menaces. The characters all seem pretty unconcerned (most of them being androids doesn't help) and while everything has been confined to the wrecked ship, I don't...

Finally got around to this. The bipedal sheep controlled by the eyeball parasite was the freakiest thing on the show. The eyeball parasite in general was the most horrifying alien (the cat scene is something you can't un-see). Liked all of the world building. It was a bit slow at times, and...

I might have already posted this a while back, but I love how Cyrodil/The Empire makes such good use of natural geographic borders. It's got mountains to the north, rivers to the east, and the capitol itself is surrounded by a massive moat. They've also got two outlets to the sea for ports. As...

Anybody playing the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake this weekend? Best Metal Gear Solid game out of all of them, and it's getting a Demon Souls style makeover from Bluepoint (do Bloodborne next plx) Don't see a thread for it, surprised there isn't any discussion about it. It's going to be a good...

Playing this finally, went with a Dark Elf from Morrowind, with a Thief star sign (since Luck tends to be the hardest stat to raise) and the Spellsword as a class since it had no wasted skills and I'd like to go Heavy Armor for a change. Couple questions about the story: Who is the Emperor...

Nice, I'm tracking it down now. I'll check out that Aliens version too. Anything worth revisiting Alien 1 for?

Well guys, I'm gonna probably be going to prison for a while. It's been good

This dude's creation of new threads is tiring One does not simply create new threads willy-nilly

Didn't know this song even existed, it must be suppressed as fuck, lol

Didn't know this was a thing, I'll need to track down the Assembly Cut. Know what DVD set includes it? "Alien Quadrilogy" says it has extra versions of the movies, so maybe that one?

The waggle-motion controls really pissed me off when I did try to play Skyward Sword. I tapped out during the bird flight section because the motion controls were so unbelievably bad during that part. Would it kill Nintendo to just make a really powerful system that doesn't have Waggle-Motion...

Was that last one actually in the game? Da fuq? Time to get the series done! I'm (tentatively, which means 30% chance I have time for it) planning to finally play Skyrim in November (11/11 onward) to simulate the time period when people played it originally. It's very much a "winter game"...

Absolutely. I also have trouble getting into NES games because I didn't grow up with them, I grew up with SNES. NES games tend to feel insanely antiquated to play. When I hear someone speaking reverently about something like Zelda 1 (which I have beaten) I don't really get it because I found...

If there's any substantial price difference, just go for normal. IIRC Pro doesn't even take discs which is ridiculous.

I'd go way further back than that. The NES era is hyper based with your Contras and Bad Dudes and Double Dragon type games. So much so that Samus being a female was a huge revelation. And Samus was based too, obliterating everything in sight and exterminating entire alien species if the...

Out of the five existing Elder Scrolls main series games - which at this point we might as well call the TOD on and declare the whole series - which is your favorite? Arena - Has the whole of Tamriel, go anywhere and do anything, a zillion builds, lot of jank Daggerfall - The biggest world in...

When does this take place? Weyland-Yutani is a thing (as opposed to it just being Weyland Corp in Prometheus) but also Yutani is one of the characters (the founder, or maybe her daughter?) so I doubt it's that far into the future if she's alive and well. Where is it in relation to Alien 1?

Have they given any sort of in-universe reason that ostensibly Tony Stark is now Victor von Doom? I figured he'd be an evil TS from the F4 universe (and that Johnny Storm would be his younger self, given the actor's striking resemblance to a young RDJ) but none of that has materialized yet (nor...

This idea reminds me of "the shine" in The Shining and the recent sequel Doctor Sleep (the latter is well worth seeing, and most people... slept on it) The Shine is basically human consciousness resonating at a higher frequency with the universe. Most have it early on as a kid, but hardly...

I see what other people mean, gayness sure takes up a lot of real estate in your brain for some reason.

I gave up on trying to join the "Disney Universe!" or whatever the fuck after the 5th or 6th six-digit code got emailed to me and none of the logins I tried worked and it was 10:00 at night and I was already exhausted from the day. Not sure if it's using my old Hulu login or my HBO Max login or...

Got two different friends playing Elden Ring for the first time right now, and both of them told me separately in the last week or two that they wished they were playing the PC version so they could get the multiplayer mod (since co-op on the PS5 version is so bad).

Wonder if I have a ton of accumulated points. I've bought probably $2000 worth of stuff from Best Buy in the past year, not counting the TV I got for $3000 a couple years before that. No idea if I'm in any sort of rewards program or anything. This year's purchases were mostly on a Best Buy...

Played this back a bunch of times. He was going to say "it's not up to me" but caught himself. That could of course just mean that it's classified and he's respecting that / doesn't want to admit that he's beholden to anyone else's rules so he stopped himself. It sure sounds sus though.

So would you say the government has anti-gravity tech and is suppressing anyone else from having it by taking out those researchers? Or that they're taking out said researchers because they don't want anybody having anti-gravity tech at all and want humanity to languish technologically?

Disney Plus is a bunch of bullshit. Against my better judgment I decided to plunk down $11 to try and watch this. Usually when you sub to a channel on Roku, it'll immediately let you access that channel and log you in. Disney though has an extra layer of bullshit to deal with, and that extends...

This is the first really interesting thing I've read about the show. Sounds like some solid Alien series worldbuilding here. I always assumed Weyland-Yutani was a U.S./China axis (or maybe U.S./Japan) and probably controlled most of the world.

She probably has that... can't remember what that's called, Oppositional Defiant Disorder or something like that. That plus perpetual victimhood = Practically has to be shackled just to load into a vehicle. Why'd she drop her weight to the ground every time they tried to get her to move...

How's the writing? Any Marvel-ness? Do the Xenomorphs fly now? Will definitely get Hulu for a month to watch this, once all the episodes are out.

Well, let him start the job first and then spring it on him. Don't give any chance for him to stall or back out of it. Actually I'm pretty sure Koush just wants this guy to go away at this point. He's got his job, that'll help him go away quicker.

I disagree, this woman was clearly unwilling to show any respect to anybody present, so no wonder none of them were in any hurry to do her any favors. She didn't listen to the cops, but she immediately listened to whoever that "yes daddy" was on the phone (which she refused to hang up for the...

Around a decade ago, the house I shared with my GF and her hot best friend had a balcony that was on the opposite side of the house from all the other houses on that street, meaning nobody had a direct sight on it. We fooled around out there by moonlight regularly. There's something awesome...

Interdasting. So I should only have a password on while trying to co-op with that one friend, and turn it off the rest of the time. Too bad it doesn't block invasions, we get invaded literally every 3-5 minutes while we're hanging out and it gets annoying quick.
