So ummm... Is anyone gonna do something about that giant mile-high sword sticking out of the planet? I thought for sure 8.1 would bring the story back to the whole 'oh yeah Azerite is the life blood of the planet that is hemorrhaging all over' stuff, but it seems to be completely ignoring...

On the 'Game Room' side of the equation, who here has experience building a retro arcade machine? I found a cool video on how to do a total conversion of one of those Arcade 1UP 3/4 scale machines, but by that point I felt like maybe it'd be easier to go full scale. Thoughts?

Anytime Michael McKean shows up you know her in for a treat. I pegged this particular plot twist awhile back, so at the very least I grok the general thought process of Schur and the writing staff.

So I rewatched some old She-Ra cartoons this AM to compare as I genuinely had little memory of any specific plot elements in the original. Turns out the reason why I had such little memory of the actual story beats is that there was little actual story! Every episode is a few Horde troopers...

Anthem = Destiny+the Division+Titanfall Everything I've seen has reinforced that basic assumption.

Logged in last night to do the weekly bosses and went to Arathi to do the quests and in the middle of all that realized it was completely pointless and just logged out in the middle of Arathi. The difference between this shitshow and Legion is palpable, and the advance spoiler videos for the...

Too easy for a 5 year old... Okay maybe I'll pass on this then

Entrapta is the best character. She's the embodiment of Chaotic Neutral.

No wonder they went bankrupt!

Do people in general use War Mode? I was reading the recent blue posts about trying to even out the faction imbalance and found it amusing. As an Alliance player I never even considered that War Mode would be a good idea. Fuck in Drustvar and Stormsong I encounter way more Horde than I do...

The problem here is 'class balance' combined with 'spreadsheet engineering'. If your goal is to make everyone average across a fairly narrow range of events then you are already restricting yourself. If you then elect to implement that by a fairly limited set of options then you are walled up...

A few more episodes in and I gotta say I'm liking the dynamic. Having the main group of Adora, Glimmer and Bow works well especially as Glimmer is the one clearly in charge of getting the Princess Alliance back together and not 'She-Ra'. She makes the most of what is admittedly a crap power...

They do rework the Eternian lore quite a bit with this. Has a certain legacy-type feel to it ala Legend of Zelda. In addition the 'magic' seems to be actually super crazy advanced technology that is indistinguishable from magic. One of the biggest changes (other than making Kowl a stuffed...

The whole premise of Pokemon is indeed fucked up beyond imagining. Not only do these people kick their kids out of the house at an early age to go fend for themselves, but the whole world is populated by seemingly sentient creatures who are happily enslaved.

This actually launched a few days early and is available on Netflix as of this morning. Has a definite Sailor-Moon kind of vibe to it. Not nearly as man-hating as I would have expected it to be.

Title: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power Genre: Animation, Kids Cast: Aimee Carrero, Karen Fukuhara, AJ Michalka, Marcus Scribner, Reshma Shetty, Lorraine Toussaint, Keston John, Lauren Ash, Christine Woods, Génesis Rodríguez, Jordan Fisher First aired: 2018-11-16 Overview: In this...

Oh my sweet lord...

Title: Pokémon: Detective Pikachu (2019) Genre: Mystery, Action, Family Director: Rob Letterman Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Justice Smith, Kathryn Newton, Bill Nighy, Suki Waterhouse, Ken Watanabe, Chris Geere, Rita Ora Release: 2019-05-09 Plot: A live-action film franchise based on...

Well they even talk about that during the episode, why the line means people should start beating on each other when they have been friendly for generations. Then again if we were today to say 'this land is for secular liberals and this other land is for Evangelical conservatives' you might...

I think they genuinely have run out of Christmas ideas as the last couple have not involved Christmas at all. Still even with a 2019 New Year's theme I would have liked the episode on Xmas day as it's become tradition in my house to watch it as part of the day's festivities. I guess 'Demons of...

So I got to play this yesterday and I found myself really having quite a bit of fun. Its Unreal4 based so it has the usual semi floaty-physics feel of any Unreal game but beyond that it is a lot of fun to run around and do a dungeon-run with an active antagonist player. Main Premise The setup...

D'onofrio is perfection as Fisk. My one regret is that he has become so intrinsically linked to the 'Hell's Kitchen' level of the MCU that we will never see him against Spiderman or anyone else.

‘Crazy Rich Asians’ Michelle Yeoh In Talks For ‘Star Trek’ Spinoff On CBS All Access Emperor Georgiou and her wild Section 31 adventures is something I could be down with. Loves me some Michelle Yeoh.

Hmm was supposed to see this tomorrow, I guess I'll wait for home cinema instead.

This game is the most fun I've ever had getting kicked in the balls.

1st/3rd person (depending on abilities) but less an FPS than Borderlands was. Think of a game where you start at Max level and are just running dungeons for gear and that's BattleBorn. Just has the added MOBA feel by 'leveling' up in each dungeon as you progress. I maintain had it not...

Well Alan Tudyk always seems game for new series and this would only need his voice... I have to imagine K2SO would be involved. I'm actually a bit more interested in a Cassian Andor series than The Mandalorian only because we know the character already and I enjoyed Diego Luna's portrayal...

That was pretty much BattleBorn...

Title: Andor Genre: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Drama, Action & Adventure, Mystery Creator: Tony Gilroy Cast: Diego Luna, Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Fiona Shaw, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Genevieve O'Reilly Overview: The adventures of rebel spy Cassian Andor during the formative years of...

Cassian Andor Live-Action Series Announced | StarWars.com Well that was certainly unexpected

The biggest dangers come not from without, but from within. Lots of Problems that erode 'Stability' in particular.

I actually forgot that we had to 'h'ail everything in EQ. It really was a system that needed help.

Mass Effect: Infiltrator been there... it was awful

It absolutely was not. The exclamation marks and quest hubs made the whole game feel less like an open world and more like a theme park...but it was clearly more fun.

Day 1 of Beta (I came in during the Forsaken phase) was quite eye opening in that there were exclamation marks over the heads of people who wanted to give me quests...like a lot of quests just being blatantly advertised with a huge glowing icon. Coming from Everquest this was totally foreign.

So this show is a slow burn... like REALLY slow. They are starting to sort of get to a bigger plot involving the First Order but its taking ages. I keep thinking they didn't hire a story editor as each week seems to be the same basic plot of Kaz failing to fix something and having to go get a...

The funny thing is that since the Nazi's and Japanese have been so free with slaughtering people, especially Americans, there are likely a great many more people from alternate worlds that can come in than can go out... The exception being, likely, the hitler youth psychos who don't necessarily...

Happy N7 day everyone... Mass Effect Andromeda Finally Got Enhanced for Xbox One X, First Screenshots Out; Game Now Discounted What everyone really wanted was higher resolution Andromeda on Xbox I'm sure. Remind me again, what's the nominal time period the IP needs to lay fallow before...

So this is a thing...

This should have been announced on a blog post < 1 month from release. Mobile games just show up on the store or with very little fanfare, there isn't a tradition of lengthy lead-up for a mobile game because of the nature of the platform. It should not have been announced as the flagship...
