    idk. im new to this. I'm not sure this cycle is going to drop any time soon. but, even if it does, it looks like 20k will be the new normal at least to me. old trends. 600 average to 17k peak, and dropped back down to about 6k average. dropped to 3.5k for a bit, then up to 11k spike, and 8k...

    Investing General Discussion

    yeah. I had meant it entirely as snark. but basically regretted it immediately. Wheres the shame in making an additional 10-25% over that? its only a matter of time/effort. if you put in alot of stress, time and work into another 5-10%, that might be bad, but otherwise.. yeah, I'd be pretty...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    Haven't watch it proper. but did watch Mauler's stream yesterday.. I think, there is a mix of ideas and execution here. like they repeated came up to the idea, that the movie would often try presenting an idea, and.. the audience was left confused. example being, like, why exactly did WW...

    2020 GOTY

    I'm not saying the studio sells ITSELF. I'm saying the studio sells its product to the AAA studio. Big studios go the other way all the time. Like, Nintendo farming out Metroid to Rare, got Metroid Prime. Theres countless of examples of sequels, etc being farmed out to other studios...

    2020 GOTY

    Theres alot of games we just don't talk about much here. the array of genres we talk about is kindof small. many here just play the same stuff, and don't really branch out much. or just don't talk about the ones they do.

    2020 GOTY

    The entire point of their studio was to break away from AAA grind, and make their own finely crafted games, in a small studio environment. They'll never balloon up to AAA. They are the craft beer comparison... Which... huh. indie craft studio innovates/pioneers... then sells IP and design...

    2020 GOTY

    I was going to say, Bannerlord sure got 334 hours played out of me so far. Far and away the most played game I got this year. Even when playing other games, like Wasteland 3.. I got sucked back into Bannerlord, pausing the wasteland run, and probably never going back to it... but, its a buggy...

    Terraria

    its basically Metroid, with a billion times more class builds and progression, with town building, and the ability to just DIG through the ground.

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    yeah. Although the technique is not really the problem with that Flash clip. its the artistic design. I'll break it down in a bit. heading out the door atm. [edit:bleh. thats too much work, I don't care enough to bother.]

    The Flash is going to have lightning. its part of his powers.

    The Batman

    the repercussions are still with us today. and in no small part of the final death of comics now. Sure the 90's boom made people rich on superheroes and shit. but... again, those other genres never came back. Comic readership stayed among itself, and never actually grew. Now everyone is...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    lol. they both do it. quicksilver went from, fast, to like 350mph, to 10k mph. hes still not faster then the speed of light, like the flash.. but hes edging up... scarlett witch, bad luck magic.... reality warping on an interdimensional level.. jean grey. mild telekinisis... I AM AM THE...

    The Batman

    how can you not be aware the CCA killed the comics industry? Everything that was not Superheroes died. Westerns, romance, horror, war comics, all dead. It was voluntary, as stated, in that retailers and distributors would not sell or distribute comics, without the seal. Small print in...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    idk if overall she was really miscast. but, its infurating to me, she refused? to dye her hair. Imagine casting Superman, and the actor dyes their hair strawberry blond and refuses to change it? wtf.

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    power creep like Superman, etc. "faster then a speeding bullet, able to leap tall buildings, stronger then a locamotive" "faster then the speed of light, able to fly, stronger then a black hole." WW scaled up along with Superman to keep her on top of every other female superhuman. She can...

    netflix's Started good. But, quickly went nowhere imo. emo edgelord is super powerful. Everyone just stays in place. monsters become basically irrelevant after the first episode. never redeems itself.

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    The thing WW values most is her family. Mother, sisters aunts on Paradise island. I haven't seen this. But, if it wasn't just taking away her powers, but instead making her human, so she can't return, would be a real curse to her.

    The Netflix Thread

    yeah. watching it now. such a weird movie. Can't recommend. multiple laughable premises. "oh theres a life sustaining moon around Jupiter, we just didn't notice before." The entire Earth went dark to the space ship at the same time. Crazy high tech artic astronomy center. also, a second one...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    1.5.5 stable up. https://www.taleworlds.com/en/News/422 I actually thought it was a bit small. cross bow thing one of the most notable. Maybe the multiplayer stuff, which I ignore? Almost nothing mentioned in the dev update #6 mentioned previously is in this. looking at 1.5.6 beta...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    IDK. Half of reddit is "zomg not as many features as warband". then theres always someone that retorts. yeah well warband has had years of mods.. half those features you are talking about, are mods, not base game. Personally im at 334hours on Bannerlord. and keep coming back to it. They just...

    why is Mandalorian good? Filoni and Favreu. Filoni on what duel of the fates is about, and why its called that. tell me this doesn't make you reconsider Anakins bullshit.

    Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019)

    lovely movie. but yeah, movies like this always drive me nuts. Rich entitled women laments having responsibilities. wants freedom to do whatever, whenever. also running away and living like a peasant getting a job is not an option obviously. Color wheel talk. RGB is LIGHT. Paint is red...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    yeah. Timers in video games are a trainwreck. And 99% of the time insufferable. its one of the things, game devs keep doing over and over, and its 100% retarded. as you said. often, quests "sound" like they are time sensitive. but are not. Sometimes, they are time sensitive in relation...

    The Mandalorian

    alot of people 100% gloss over the insane dumb shit in the cartoons which Lucas himself was part of. and the EU in general, even when saying how the EU has so much source to pull from. There is just as many landmines of fiction breaking dumb shit in those, as TLJ. Like, the question of Jedi...

    from the politics thread. 35% of US dollars have been printed in the last 10 months. Their take away was Assets good. Cash bad. Bitcoin now. this is out of my depth, but seemed pretty compelling to me.

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    lol. I liked Underwater. and I recommend it. And she did a great job in it as well. but yeah, "hot" is not the word I would have used to describe her in that movie. ha.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah, Space hulks certainly occurred to me as well. and I'm sure them. Although, is this the first time we've even seen a Hive city in games? I'm pretty ok with that, due to that. I wonder if an undergang member will be a character reveal? Previous are all wearing Inquisition markings.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I guess with "horde shooter" we need to consider hordes too. like, if you are using 40k, I want xenos... but, what Xenos will "horde". Orks, tyranids, chaos, IG themselves basically.. Maybe eldar/dark eldar? would love to kill some space communists, but they do not horde. And some of the...

    Who do you rely the most on for game reviews?

    Sseth is the only real reviewer. ACG is good. but, even he, along with just about any. you just need to listen to what they say about the game, and compare that to what you want in games. Not listen to their scores or the like.
