Whoever does AEW thumbnails either needs to be fired or needs a raise, not sure which

Well, it was a couple years ago. I'll still get it checked out. They must have been from the vent and got projected (along with the sound of the pop) across the room to where I was. Welp, at least there's a rational explanation and they didn't warp in through some unknown phenomenon. That's...

LEAVE FF8 ALONE

Interesting. I should have put a ruler or something there for scale, now that I think about it. Each one is about the length of a quarter, across long-way. Looks to me like they're supposed to be connected in links of two, and somehow got separated. The sides that were separated look all...

So if I'm reading all of this right...Affliction Warlock was tops in the previous 3 expansions, now Elemental Shamans out-do them but Warlock is a strong 2nd? Balance Druid is 3rd. Pretty cool since those are the 3 main classes I was considering for this go-around and I didn't even know any of...

Yeah, I have to go through Shadowlands. Also, that's half the point of coming back. I'm there to see the expansion I missed, then the new one. I haven't missed a single WoW expansion in the past and usually played them close to release. This time around I'm just getting in under the wire. Even...

So a few years ago I was sitting in a chair in a room and heard a loud POP behind my head. Loud enough pop that I got a headache afterwards. Immediately following the pop, a bunch of pieces of metal clinked onto the floor around the room. Four of them to be exact. I put 3 away and set the other...

Was a tossup for me between playing this or Ori next. So I'm kinda jumping between them. The Bayonetta series is weird and I don't think I "get it" in general, but it's fun. Looking at Bayonetta 3 in motion, the gulf between Switch graphics and what this would look like on a PS5 is humongous...

Movies too, across the board, creativity has plummeted since its apex in the 80's and 90's. We were all exceedingly lucky to live through that era as media-fans. People born post-2001 really missed out.

So the "new Witcher game" in development (that people thought would be a Witcher 4) turned out to be this Witcher 1 remake? I'm okay with this. I liked Witcher 2 and 3 a lot. Wanted an excuse to do W1 at some point but not in its current state. I also want to see more Unreal 5 games in...

Started Ori and the Blind Forest. Man, the beginning of this game made me sad as hell. I kinda figured the game was gonna be something like this. It made me feel things. Looking at this game's 2D-HD kind of high contrast glowy look made me realize that, for the first time ever, I'm not opposed...

Interdasting. I'm gonna try running a Super Metroid with that at some point in the near future. I'll do a trial run-through to jog my memory and then an actual speed run to get my area times recorded for future plays. It could be a lot more interesting than my usual "see if my final time is...

The vet appointment was also a pre-existing vet appointment. So it isn't like it was an emergency vet appointment called to check Larry for post-brawl injuries. They happened to find an issue during a routine appointment and somebody attributed that to the brawl, but we're only now hearing...

Might be thinking of the second one. The third is more of a traditional RPG (and the best one). I THINK the first one is too. I barely remember the first, except that it didn't have much music and all my friends and I thought it was Xenogears Episode 1 so we were playing it like six hours a day...

What about Arena? I liked Arena a LOT. It doesn't even look that bad in the modern era, somehow. Had friends try to get me into Oblivion over the years but it wasn't until Skyrim that I got really into the series (watching friends play it). That's when I went back to the beginning. ES Arena was...

Sounds to me like Ardenweald and Korthia are the main zones worth doing. I heard Ardenweald looked incredible. PUGs in WoW seem better this go-around than I remember. Maybe it's because the content is so unbelievably easy, but I haven't had any issues with groups wiping out over idiocy. I...

Maybe I'll hold off on playing more until then, to give me more levels in Shadowlands? 42 now so it might not even matter, given that SL starts at 48 (?) and I'm nearly there. Good to see that it's indeed free now. They did that super quietly (nothing about it on the launcher) which might mean...

This is, literally, what friends of mine say about Trump and the 2020 election. It's a tough sell to go on about Bellwether Counties and whatnot that they've never heard of, or laws being changed at the last minute. They want to see definitive proof. Why wouldn't they? Puts me in a tough...

You playing the Elder Scrolls collector's edition box set on PC? I haven't played any of the ES games on console, but I played the first two in that box set. Daggerfall was such a complete mess of bugs that I ended up uninstalling it and downloading a shareware ROM online instead, which worked...

How does this work? Is it a program that runs alongside the game, or is it Twitch with a regular capture box or what? Are you playing on OG hardware or SNES Classic or emulator? Also how does the game know when you've passed one of the milestones on the list? Do you have to remember to hit a...

Of course it's a lie. Most likely, the dog already had loose teeth, being an older dog, and this was attributed to the brawl by Punk. He likely believes himself about it too. He needs professional help.

The Mana Beast is probably a translation thing, like FF7's "attack when its tail is up!" being the opposite of what you're supposed to do. I didn't even know it was killable without using Mana Magic. The end of Xenogears Disc 1 is actually a potentially good stopping point and feels like the...

Larry: "Alright Phil, if we're gonna get people back on our side, you gotta hit me." Punk: "What?" "Hit me! And make it look good! DO IT!!" "No! I'm not gonna do it Larry! I love you!" "Right in the front teeth! Do it! DO IT!" "NO! I WON'T DO IT LARRY! I WON'T!" "DO IT, PUSSY! DO YOU...

Just remembered an almost ruined-game. God of War Ascension. Trials of Archimedes, near the end of the game. That part was so goddamn ridiculously hard. Took me like two hours before I finally lucked into a win. It's right at the end of the game, before the final boss, and totally slows the...

This brings back a deep forgotten memory. I think I played this as a kid. I loved RPGs like this that were like 90% imagination and featured micromanaging of levels and equipment.

Noticed a fair amount of people seem to be in the camp that Punk's behavior was justified and that The Elite are a backstage cancer and it's all their fault for spreading rumors and holding people back. I have one friend who thinks that the people criticizing Punk are just "AEW fanboys" upset...

In FF12's newer Zodiac Age version, there's some kind of trial mode where you play a series of battles with your characters from the main game (then take whatever you get back to the main game). I was able to totally jack up the game and make my characters OP with this. Near the beginning once...

Playing Bloodstained. Really good game, sort of Symphony of the Night 2.0. The heroine is hot as fuck and a joy to play as. Also has a lot of game modes and extra additions (like the creator of Castlevania as a secret uberboss). Reminds me of Shovel Knight in that regard, like it's a labor of...

God damn, the micro bar is tiny now. I'm trying to click on talents and quests etc and I have to squint despite having near-perfect vision. Looks like normal talent trees, but it auto-filled in the tree for me because God Forbid players have to think about anything with their brain more than...

Getting stuck in a final area with no Exit type spell seems to be a common cause of the topic of this thread. NES TMNT hurt everyone. I couldn't get into Ninja Gaiden Black either. Now I have the patience for it but I'm gonna play Sekiro instead. Super Return of the Jedi is worth playing...

Wait, so what was the issue with this dance off? Was it bugged out? This was the thing that drove me nuts in the Persona games, main character death being game over. Combined with the fact that insta-death spells were SOMEHOW A THING at the same time. Can't count how many times I lost progress...

Reminds me of one of my cool game memories: Rented Super Metroid on release day, was unbelievably excited for it. Got it home, played for like six hours straight, having a blast. Then ran into the wall of a boss that is Draygon, the boss of Maridia. It kept doing that...

That's hilarious. Last time I went out with a girl, it was someone I met at a game convention and we bonded over discussing Zelda dungeons. She loved Wind Waker and Ocarina's dungeons the most, I sung the praises of LTTP. On our date I was playing different Zelda dungeon themes in the car, like...

Anyone heard anything about how Tristen actually died? Guy was super young. One of AEW's producers, also a fairly young guy, just dropped dead out of nowhere.

That place was tough for me to get through too. I was much more dedicated in 99 so I finished it eventually through trial and error. A few years later they released OoT Master Quest on the Gamecube which remixed OoT's dungeons quite a bit (probably other stuff too, can't remember). The funny...

I like how he emphasized AUDIENCE SCORE. I think this movie will have a nice second wave in theaters now that people see it as being a bit anti-establishment. I'll definitely go see it this week just to support it.

Not sure, but I had a few Icecrown quests send me there so I did have quests there. They just didn't originate there. Did a few levels in Zul, a few in Storm Peaks, wasn't too impressed with either. Icecrown is pretty cool though, did 30-40 there and probably sticking around til SL.

Crystalsong is still one of the nicest zones I've ever seen in any game, damn.

I ask cause of situations like this where the item levels are identical and the main difference is whether it has versatility/crit/haste:
