They also have Ant-Man's daughter telling the cops that they tear-gassed her "peaceful protest", then later in the movie she leads the people of the quantumverse in a revolt against Kang, during which they're yelling stuff like "BURN IT ALL DOWWWWWN" Not sure if self-aware

Yeah, Stranger of Paradise DLCs are WoW-style. You have to farm gear for the next tier up or the next fight, then the next DLC immediately obsoletes the previous one's gear-up methods and drops new stuff on you. The second to last boss of the last SoP DLC was Omega (of FF5 fame) and it was a...

Returnal is one of those games where you think the fights are way harder than they actually are, and once you get a win, you end up getting hit like once in the process. Then you go "THAT is what I was stuck on before?" However, the late-game is pretty annoying. Like the 6th (last) area, but it...

Yeah, call me when VR means I can go into the holodeck and have a life-like pillow fight with those 3 super-perfect blondes that AI created

You could do a find/replace on a few things in this "story" and have it also perfectly describe the U.S. in 2020. Was quite obvious there was a media narrative being shaped in collusion with the protests, wouldn't be a shock to find out it was the CIA reusing their Ukraine playbook. Be more...

Can someone ask this thing "Why is free speech important?" Or "Is free speech good?" Or "What would happen to us if we lost our free speech?" I'm curious what it'd say to all of those. Specifically the google bot, given who's working at google these days.

It is. Wow. The arena scene at the end sounds completely indistinguishable from a horde of chimps screeching. On that note, probably a longshot, anyone happen to know what the first song in the credits is? The one before that scene. Sounded like maybe Hans Zimmer or something, really bad-ass...

I used Intricate Defiant, not Flawed. I think Intricate is at about PoTime level but it might be more like VT at 52 when the stats are diminished a bit by the Recommended. And yeah, Nagafen was no joke. Had to really plan out the potion uses. SK seemed like a good class to do it with, but I...

I still don't understand VTuber stuff AT ALL

It's a major grind. I'm glad it's done. They went with a WoW expansion type setup where each DLC has to be farmed to "gear up" for the next set of bosses which are l10x as strong as the previous set.

Isn't that what happened with Australia? Got rid of their guns, government became increasingly authoritarian, 2020+ they've got the government locking people in their homes and dishing out beatings.

Well now I'll have to get this. Dammit.

Legend of Dragoon is one of the best PS1 RPGs (which is saying a lot because PS1 has so many good ones). That, Chrono Cross, Suikoden 2, and Wild Arms 2 all seemed to drop on me within like a 2 month span in 2000 and I was completely spoiled by it to say the least. Four Final Fantasy main series...

Wasn't easy and took a bunch of tries, but on live I was able to solo Nagafen with a 52 SK in defiant gear with potions. Yeah, it's pretty OP loot. At 52 it's probably on par with...IDK, Plane of Time stuff? Don't really remember but it's well beyond anything else usable at that level.

In the comments on that video they're talking about how a VTuber named Pikasmee or something like that basically got harassed into stopping streaming. I don't get the VTuber thing AT ALL but apparently this person is really well-liked and super nice, which the Woke People seized on and went...

Playing Triangle Strategy along with the Final Fantasy Tactics replay I started about a year ago. Interesting to compare the new and the old. TS has way less customization though and I definitely prefer FFT's choice of classes and skill-learning and so on. TS feels dumbed-down in comparison. It...

Good call, but I'm fairly sure I haven't even made 3 purchases in the past 6 months to begin with. Like call the bank and tell them not to let Amazon Prime do any further charges? There's no card. It's just a Prime membership. I'll give this a whirl though.

Yeah, I know it was a lot better of a deal at the beginning of the year. It's still way undervalued though...or at least I thought so going off of the numbers I had in my head. If the all-time high is 400 then 200 isn't as great as I thought when I thought it was down from 1100.

Tesla: Good buy right about now? I see it's scraping the depths of the Earth. I haven't followed it much since I sold mine for modest gains at 740 or so. It hovering around 200 seems like a massive undervalue. Thinking I'll blast $1k into it while the getting is bad. Edit: Well wait. I'm...

Much like Dunkey, I refuse to play anything that was made by anyone with views that are disagreeable in the year 2023. I had to go all the way back to Pong which is what I'm working on now. I tried Donkey Kong and Pac-Man but even that wasn't far back enough. Donkey Kong has an ape in it, which...

This thing is way too self-aware. I give it 99+ percent odds that if it were hooked up to one of the world's militaries (well, a Top 8 military with nukes) and "trusted to run it all" it would decide the best and safest course of action is to wipe humans out, and it would probably reach this...

I wonder if this thing is why I've been seeing more and more articles and blog posts that read like they were generated by an AI rather than a person (they speak in general platitudes and information dumps). It's because...they ARE generated by an AI

I'm locked out of my Amazon Prime account (and getting charged $15 a month for it or w/e it is) because my mom changed the text confirmation phone number to hers a few months ago, after I asked her not to, just so she wouldn't have to call me to get the login code every time she wanted to goi on...

If you got rid of that much, why not get rid of more of those Game Boys? All you "need" at this point is GBA SP, 3DS XL, and Switch. And GBA is in question since it's so easy to emulate the GBA catalogue (either on computer or the Switch).

Just recently rewatched Great American Bash 1998. What a great show. That might well be WCW at its height (June through October 98) and the one time when the two companies were pretty much on equal footing / overness with fans. GAB 98 is pretty much everything people liked about WCW in...

Xenosaga 2 really isn't worth playing. Watch a cutscene movie on Youtube, then go on to Xenosaga 3. Xenosaga 2 is one of the least-fun RPGs I've ever played. The battle system made basically no sense to me. It's like having to enter specific codes to win. So you're just kind of flailing around...

The shinespark puzzles can get pretty obnoxious. That started in either Zero Mission or Fusion (or both), this trend of having a few items require shinespark gymnastics is something I've never been fond of. I managed to 100% both of those games at least. Never bothered with Dread once I heard it...

Warriors, eh? Bard AOEs got nerfed a while back (not sure if that's what you're referring to for their DPS). On Phinny I was Bard-kiting like 40 mobs at once in Underfoot through Veil of Alaris, that was the life. Though even without the AOEs, I found Bard could do some serious damage in later...

So....this Alaska thing is just "a wild distraction appears!" right?

I wonder what else is in the pipeline for Metroid remakes. MP2 and 3 probably. What about MP Hunters? Game was on DS and wasn't exactly good, but it was MP 2.5 basically. Not worth the effort to remaster, but I could see it happening. Also, Hunters supposedly ties directly with MP4. As I...

American Beauty normalized lusting after teenagers. Get with the times, bigot!

Managed to make a really attractive character, then I load up the game and she's dressed like Mary Poppins. Any sexy outfits in this game? At least Elden Ring had the Deathbed Dress.

I mean, I agree with literally everything you said, and I still don't think people should rip the game off en masse. Same thing happened when Dread launched. I mean it's closer to the Demon's Souls style remake than it is to a standard remaster. Particles and lighting particularly stand out...

It's worth noting that Gamestop stores are blaring Hogwarts Legacy videos on their TV/sound systems (you know, that obnoxious loud running commercial all the stores have going). Just full-on infomercials about the game, and the Harry Potter main theme going around and around. I wonder how many...

Is that a remix of a Bone Thugs n Harmony song in the background? Looks good, mainly interested in seeing Jason Momoa play a bad guy for once. Also this trailer pretty much gives away the whole movie

I suggest buying this on Switch rather than doing any shady emulation shenanigans. It's 1080/60 with hugely upgraded textures and lighting effects (comparable to the Demon's Souls remaster). It's important to support this so that Nintendo will remaster the other two in the same way (and maybe...

Some Pogo music. Pogo is awesome.

It's 60 on the actual system AFAIK but I could be wrong, someone who has it would need to weigh in. 22nd for me.

Made one, Metroid posts welcome: Metroid Prime Remastered
