    It seems like the uber-rich class automatically defaults to Racial Stuff as their go-to defense for shutting down anybody at odds with them. Probably...because it works.

    Isn't Palantir considered a solid long-term prospect? We'll see in March if my hopes about Lordstown are founded.

    It was both, I'm all about sticking it to the man. However I also don't know what I'm doing yet. This week has been a crash course, hopefully I'll take away enough knowledge to get the ball rolling on some more legitimate stock trading (something I've wanted to get into for years).

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Yeah, I love the idea of just being turned loose in a hostile world, where every direction you go in will lead to a different adventure. The original Zelda did that, and it was what got me glued to Fallout 3 when I first fired it up. Unfortunately for the most part outside of EQ I've spent...

    Even before the memeing of the last month, Tesla was on a long climb. Now debatably it'll fall back down to normal for a while and this is a bad time to invest, which is where my being a n00b shows itself. BTC though I'm pretty confident will keep trending upward like it always has. I'll put...

    Getting out of AMC, held long enough. The price keeps rising during the time the transaction has been sitting there pending, too. I'm putting that into Tesla or BTC, enough meme stocks for me. Keeping GME but it seems to be stalling out, so I don't know how much longer I'll stick with it. Maybe...

    I'm just glad HD versions of all of these things exist now. There's even an HD version of the original Wizardry on PC. Ultima series next? Crazy stuff. In my middle age I'm going to make up for all the CRPGs I missed growing up.

    Wow, impressive late night gains in GME. At this rate it'll break its own record tomorrow, hopefully. AMC is lagging quite a bit unfortunately. Noob question: If you sell in the middle of the night and it goes through the next day at 9:30 or so, does it sell at the price it was at when you...

    What do you use for Doge? Don't remember seeing it available in any of my apps. Considered investing in it yesterday and didn't, bad move. I did put $500 in Bitcoin when it dipped to 30 though, could make a quick $100 profit but I'm going to leave it alone.

    I've lost a grand total of $200 on GME so far and I'm not goin' anywhere yet. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

    I'm not seeing it, I stopped watching or reading any of those news networks months ago (except when I'm forced to, since they're all perpetually in everyone's face) I do know a couple of them put out articles trying to tear the redditors down, though. They were mentioned earlier in the thread...

    Did you ever get your money back? I'm still pissed that I have $400 locked up in Robinhood from when I signed up for it and then decided to go with Stash instead. I still haven't fixed that issue, and they don't have a customer support phone number of any kind to call and cancel anything...

    Just talked to them, they said they can do a block on Robinhood accessing my account but it'll cost me a $25 fee. Whatever. I'd rather wait and let Robinhood take the money and then just withdraw it back, but at this point I don't know if there'll be a Robinhood in a week to do that. $25 it is...

    I put $400 into a Robinhood account earlier this week before all of this happened. Ended up using Stash instead, so that $400 "buying power" is still sitting in Robinhood untouched. Unfortunately I can't seem to get it out and close the account. They haven't actually taken the $400 out of my...

    I wanted to get Fidelity to begin with, but ended up going with Stash. The problem is that some employer already opened a Fidelity account in my name at some point, and I couldn't open a new one or use the existing one to trade stocks. Until I get in touch with them to sort it out, Fidelity is...

    I'm with you for now. How can it go up if people aren't allowed to buy, though? Utter horseshit. I'm holding, tomorrow will be interesting. I don't suppose anyone can step in and save the day in terms of one of these trading platforms opening GME to people so it can have a big resurgence.

    Put $500 (combined) on AMC and GME yesterday morning. Didn't expect much of a return but was hopeful. What's going on now seems like total horseshit though. Down about halfway on the investment and WANT to hold the line, but it seems like I'm not being given any choice in the matter.

    Would Pathfinder be a good game to start with out of this group? As in, the first one I play all the way through? I'm looking for the most user-friendly one to start off. Maybe the easiest one. Granular difficulty settings usually accomodate that. Or would Pillars of Eternity be a good one to do...

    How can I avoid that when I play it? Just put Kingdom on autopilot? I think the only time I ever lost 60+ hours on a game was the infamous Velius fight in Final Fantasy Tactics. Like a lot of other players, I got boxed in on that fight and my party had no chance of defeating the boss (since...

    For real though, what it did was pique my interest and give me an understanding of the basic fundamentals. It also held my interest, which I doubt any actual finance class could have as a teenager. Course, now I'm studying up on whatever I can get.

    Good points. I think you're right about what the BTC ceiling is right now and that it'll exceed that, but not this year. I'm thinking I'll drop some funds on it as a long-term investment, leave that alone, and see what happens with it over time. Meanwhile, try doing some swing trading of BTC...

    Welp, I got 'em all. Now I have ten CRPGs to play: Planescape Torment, Torment: Tides of Numenera, Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: Original Sin 1 and 2, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights, and Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Basically catching up on like all the CRPGs ever. Not sure...

    I've seen a lot of people say that Planescape: Torment is their favorite game of all time. Probably a comparable number to things like Chrono Trigger and Super Metroid. I mean it has HYPE around it. I can't wait to check it out. Is Torment: Tides of Numeria a sequel to it? It doesn't seem...

    Grabbed Planescape Torment + Icewind Dale, the Baldur's Gate duogy, Neverwinter Nights, and I think I'll get Pathfinder: Kingmaker soon. I've heard Divinity: Original Sin 2 recommended a lot, but what about the first one? Are they both worth a run? Looks like the second is pretty cheap on PS4...

    So uh...when's a good time to buy into Bitcoin? I feel like it's going to surge under Biden while everything else drops, due to being disconnected from the banking system that they can now ban people from. Unless they're going to go after it for that very reason. And maybe I'm wrong and it's...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I've got World/Iceborne on PS4 and I really like this style of game, it's something I didn't realize I needed. I should have figured this out when my favorite parts of Final Fantasy 12 and 13 were the optional hunts. Dunno if I'll ever actually finish this monstrosity, but if I do, what other...

    After ignoring CRPGs for years, I got Torment: Tides and Pillars of Eternity on PS4 and like 'em so far. What else is worth getting from the genre? There's a Baldur's Gate duo-gy, and an Icewind Dale + Planescape Torment two-fer. Thinking about grabbing 'em both.

    Welp, I finished Cyberpunk and I'm almost done with Yakuza 7, Ys 7, and Fenyx Rising (been bouncing between them for the past month). Think I'll get back to this next. I left off midway through, with a few territories in England conquered. What I'm reading has me pretty worried though. Why did...

    Had a chance to get this for a measily $23 so I did. Hopefully I enjoy it. Been wanting to play a good modern Star Wars game for years and the Lego Star Wars series just doesn't really tickle my pickle the way I want. Main concern here is that I don't know if I have 20+ hours to put aside for...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    I didn't say it was worth $1500, I said I've got about that much worth of relic draws on the account. I assume FFRK accounts are worth a lot less, even moderately well-geared ones like mine. Regardless, if anyone wants to make an offer or see the wares PM me and I'll send screenshots. At this...

    Kingdom of Amalur: Re-Reckoning remaster releasing soon

    Not gonna lie, stuff like that can make mediocre games a lot more tolerable.

Even the dull ones...

    JRPGs

    I probably won't get to Ys 8 before Ys 9 because time isn't gonna permit it. So I'll be going 7-9-8. At least the story isn't super-important to follow in order. 8 sounds like it's got some issues. I'm really into the Souls style of attacks feeling deliberate/weighted. One of the reasons Hyrule...

    Best phone games?

    Anyone know how feasible it is to play games like Dragon Quest 5 or Final Fantasy Dimensions with a controller on a tablet? As much as I like them on phone with touchscreen controls, I feel like it'd be a much better experience to put them on a tablet with a controller plugged in. Specifically...
