Really depends how the super serum works - if it makes them 400% stronger, then sure, if it adds X strength, then no - he'd still be stronger but the gap would be tiny. It was obviously the latter for the original cap in that he was weak as shit to start with, and not noticeably weaker than...

This is surprisingly good. Great casting for Brekker, which is ironic given he isn't supposed to be in it ;p. I'm guessing they are taking the long view toward future seasons.

I liked the ending, even if it was a bit sappy. Hope they get another season. One thing that bugged me : One thing that didn't bug me :

Mark is right there - he doesn't want to look like a shithead in front of him.

In the episode for less than 5 seconds, still steals the show.

"Four hundred billion dollars for the world's most expensive nosebleed" LOL. Even Rex was firing on all cylinders this one, his reaction to why he was chosen was hilarious.

This was bad 8(. The opening sequence was pretty good quality, massive bloodbath action sequence. Then the rest of the movie happened. It's about what you'd expect from a Mortal Kombat movie I guess, although the character introductions and catchphrases were so forced I wouldn't be surprised...

Eh, that's art for you. Nothing wrong with not liking a particular style. Plenty of shows I've never watched because I don't like the art.

Vivy : this just seems very good overall. My predictions - the bear is a lying sack of shit. Joran : this has really nice art, good animation and an interesting story. Will keep going with this one. To Your Eternity : remains intriguing. One of the benefits of such a strong first episode is...

The author is pretty good, Six of Crows was a great book, so I look forward to this with interest.

And yeah, the human drama stories are pretty bad. The lesbian one is bearable, but everything to do with Ed's wife is absolutely awful.

There are obviously some huge space enthusiasts involved in the show. The painstaking recreation of the old space tech, but real and theoretical, is pretty amazing. I am betting there were some bitter arguments from technical consultants over that scene and 'drama' won ;p ( A bigger problem is...

Personally, I kind of wonder about that, I suspect a lot of it is unfamiliarity of nuance in language. I wonder what native Japanese speakers think on that topic.

Fumetsu no Atana was unexpectedly very different from the usual run of stuff. I thought it was really good

I felt bad for the Titan, poor guy, all he wants is a snack and nice lie down but he can't find his house and people keep attacking him for no reason ! ;p

It seems a fair guess that missions 1 through 9 got killed by various aliens ;p Seriously though I think it was more the first *human* mission to mars, not the first mission to mars.

Surprisingly, Victoria was actually around for most of that. It's a fair point though, WW1/WW2 is closer but the tech base doesn't really have a real world equivalent, given the Edwina massacre was a aircraft carrier group and that was decades before the start of the story. I spose Victorian...

Just caught up on Vigor Mortis. I really like this one. Um, hard to describe - fantasy world which is made up of a bunch of giant floating islands apparently being levitated by an eldritch abomination called the Mistwatcher, which is worshipped as a god by a lot of people. In extreme...

Yeah, it was ok. Odenkirk is kind of a dick though, think John Wick if his wife lived and they had a happy marriage and then he started shit with the russians coz he was bored. The choreography is also pretty pedestrian in comparison.

The least plausible thing in this movie about giant monsters and the earth being hollow was probably the civil engineering that the evil megacorp got up to 8) In fact, probably the civil engineering that *everyone* got up to - how the fuck did they get that many girders to skull island ? Who...

New stories: Dragon Hack - by the Threadbare guy, this is set in the same world (sort of?) but prior to the cataclysm and the sundering of Cylvania. Generica is (mostly) just a game at this point, and it's about the original bunch of real world players as much as the game world. It entirely...

This was really good. A bit of an indictment of amazon prime though, in that I would not have even known it existed without this thread - the homepage and recommendations is just a bunch of shit that I have already seen and random nonsense like australian football documentaries.

Yes it is. Arguing otherwise is nonsensical - the alliance hall of fame didn't even fill until a few weeks ago. There are still only 1800 guilds worldwide across both factions that have even killed mythic sludgefist.

This game is pretty fun. Played through as the humans, doing a run as the swamp people at the moment. The swamp marauders are completely absurd tanks despite having no armor, and their stacking %health bleeds explode big hp stuff surprisingly quickly. Hammers in general aren't much use on low...

The opening sequence was glorious fast and furious style utter nonsense, with a ludicrously elaborate plan which made no sense on any level and STILL the least plausible thing in it was the idea that they would give the slightest fuck about invading Syrian airspace ;p Plausibility of Falcon...

Anyone got a good layout for a critical photon farm? I just seem to end up with a random mess of crap that doesn't line up in any way and it really annoys me. It works, but what is a working layout without good symmetry right ? ;p

It's a nice thought, but Captain Marvel made more money than all of the Expendables AND all of the John Wicks combined.

Doh, that will make life considerably easier. You'd think that would be something you'd put in the description of the railgun, it's kind of important info ;p

Wait, am I missing something ? How do you use railguns to build the sphere ? I thought they could only be used for the swarm.

I read the first of the LN ( it covers up to ep 6 of the anime ) after watching. I was surprised by how close the spider is to the anime given it's a fairly decent sized book, but the human kids timeline made more sense - you get various snippets of them growing up interspersed with the...

At some point you will ask yourself, surely I have enough sorters ? The answer is No. No, you do not ;p

Is it on the starting planet ? If it is, it spends a lot of time blocked from sphere rings by the gas giant that it's orbiting.

I thought the first ep was pretty good. Very different tone from the other arrowverse shows. Their concerns about the kids seemed pretty true to life, but you'd have to think that having kids in the first place was wildly irresponsible. I'm going to assume it was an accident ;p

I agree with this completely, but it's probably worth noting that the first play through is a lot of value. I'm 50ish hours in and nowhere near done. You could certainly do it a lot faster by looking up optimised builds and build orders and cheatsheets, but where is the fun in that ? As it...

Yeah, this is one of the best new ones I've seen in a while. Just generally wholesome.

Tearing up my initial stuff is amusing - 'where does this go ?' 'what the actual fuck ? how did this even work?' My greatest enemy is the 3d sphere - having a row of 3 belts running through assemblers be unable to continue because they bend into each other to match terrain drives me nuts.

It wouldn't be complete unless it has one of the good guys go the wrong way, and then have his teammates tell him he's fucking trash and should kill himself IRL.

In fairness, quite a lot happens in book 1. It's book, uh, 4 I guess ? That you have to watch out for ;p

Individual punishment rather than collective works better for that kind of thing. Like what they did with volcanic, where getting hit launches you into the air and interrupts dps. For a lot of those people, the link between 'mob x casting a spell' and 'tank suddenly dies' isn't clear. A better...

I'm partway through this one at the moment, a bit clumsy writing wise, but fun and entertaining read. I offer a thumbs up. Also partway through 'Two Worlds', which is different from the usual RR fare - it's milsf basically, following various military personnel in different branches in a...
