    On a side note, the Allagan stuff you get that makes furniture from the Coils raid goes for a fuckton. It only drops in sync runs. On my server, just the parts are going for like 6-9 million for some

    Interesting, Non Political News

    https://www.bbc.com/news/64919126 I am curious how much of those record sales are for actual listening vs. collecting. I have a friend who buys records, but he typically is just buying them for the collection aspect. He doesn't even own a record player AFAIK.

    The Last of Us

    Acceptable is going to be relativistic. If we place ourselves in the position of the main character, then how we view it will be different than a dispassionate and completely neutral 3rd party

    Presumably. It’s also possible there will be additional crafting relic steps. I’ve never known them to release a relic that was 100% done in a single patch

    The Last of Us

    Marlene was willing to sacrifice Ellie for the chance of a cure. Just a chance, no guarantees. Joel didn’t want to lose another child. For him, it was like a chance to redo the events that led to Sarah’s death. He’s had that shit bottled up for decades and now stares in the face of forces...

    Speaking of the new deep dungeon, the framers kit you get for 10 shards is cool. Can make it look like your character is trapped inside an Allagan biological containment chamber

    2023 Academy Awards. No Baldies allowed!

    It’s too bad in a way Indiana Jones 5 was made when it was. If it was being made after Ke Huy Quan’s resurgence, then Indy could have passed the torch to an adult Short Round instead and the fans would probably have been more on board with it

    Ideally they would just dump PVP gear altogether and just have normalized gear in instanced PVP

    I presume they will have additional steps for the crafting relics. Don't forget there will be another tier of crafting gear coming in the coming patches that will raise the ilevel

    The Last of Us

    It was true to the game - it pretty much was the same. And now you can enjoy this single season of TLOU, because there are no other games or additional seasons. The end. Yup...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Luclin zone size was basically "hey guys, we have mounts now! Imagine if you had a mount...you could cross this more quickly!" Until you could afford a horse, you had to deal with zones designed to assume you had a horse

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That probably has more to do with the change from 1st to 3rd person as the default means of interacting with the game world. When you're in 3rd person, you now have to account for the elevated camera following the player around, which requires larger indoor spaces lest you run into camera...

    You don't "need" to play with real people if you don't want to for most of it. However, you will be forced to engage in content with other players for MSQ required trials and raids. Once you beat the 2.0 ARR, you'll eventually have to do the Crystal Tower raid (basically think a 24 man...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I decided to try it out after being away for probably 5 years. First thing that struck me was how fucking old the game looked (I mean, the game is essentially 20 years old at this point, so can't expect much) and how I was unused to the game itself at this point. To their credit, they do try...

    The X.X5 patches, with the exception of the last patch of the expansion (X.55), tend to have no MSQ content. However, they sometimes will include MSQ adjacent content in the X.X5 patches. This patch mostly just added a new beast tribe series, a new deep dungeon, new relic weapon steps for...

    I did like this scene in the episode

    Final Fantasy 16

    Part of the reason I refuse to click into obviously clickbait shit (like Quartering/Doomcock). Every click feeds the algorithm, which gives them more views and more prominence, which gives them more money, which encourages them to keep making clickbait shit

    DMZ has its own specific quests you have to do in DMZ only. Basically Tarkov-like mission/quests to unlock shit

    I want to skip pacific foothold, but my only other option is killing 3 players inside the mall and no one ever goes to the mall in the game. Plus pretty sure they have to be inside…I killed a dude right outside the parking garage and didn’t get credit

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 both have us start the games in a nice peaceful home/vault. Starfield will probably split the difference: we will start in a nice house, then it turns out it is a VR simulation and we are in space prison

    There is an actual law in Japan called the Unfair Competition Prevention Law. A lot focuses on consoles (modding a console can lead to jail time technically), but it also has provisions for modifying a game or save file I think. Regardless as to scope and if it could be applied or not to the...

    The final floor of the new deep dungeon. The story only goes to floor 30, but there are floors past that like PotD and HoH. There is a legality element to mods in Japan. My understanding is there are potentially penalties that SquareEnix could suffer if they are found culpable in allowing them

    People are theorycrafting that most melee dps will be able to solo if they learn the tells/mechanics Warrior got world first solo I think. Title you get is “once and future king”

    Star Trek: Picard

    In DS9, they did establish parts of a changling separated from the individual could exist as non-sentient but shapeshifted objects. That is all I can figure the deal with the hand was. The changling goo didn’t do anything until the machine was activated

    I’m stuck on those stupid drill charge /C4 vehicle detonate kill missions because the shit is buggy AF Also fuck the Pacific Foothold mission. Gun oil/blow torches are even more rare on Ashika

    Star Trek: Picard

    The space squid things did sort of look like the Farpoint alien on a bigger budget. Honestly, if you removed the Shrike and serialized elements from that episode, it would have been a regular TNG episode: ship is stuck, crew eventually figures out how to escape after talking, they make a nice...

    The Hildibrand quests have been great this expansion. The math meme and failed clone had me laughing IRL.

    There is only one correct answer to this one lol

    The Mandalorian

    Awesome episode. The post-apocalypse Mandalore was great. The reveal in the mines at the end was very interesting - although I am curious what will happen with that. Not like they can fit that in a ship

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    The Crosshair bottle episodes have been fantastic. The slow realization that no matter how good a soldier he is, he is destined to be thrown on the heap and wasted on meaningless missions

    Star Trek: Picard

    The best part about the root beer scene is it was originally intended to just be episode filler fluff for laughs…but both actors agreed to play it serious and build on the subtext and now it ranks high on favorite DS9 scenes Just goes to show how having talented actors can elevate material

    Star Trek: Picard

    Beverly's excuse was valid in the sense that the attacks against Picard post-Enterprise were targeted vs. incidental. Shit happened on the Enterprise in TNG because stuff happened. Most wasn't because of Picard being on the ship, with some exceptions. But the things Beverly was describing...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I think it just made it more realistic. Think Vulcans. Vulcans have emotions, but they effectively suppress them through active effort to the point that they are essentially "emotionless". They have to work to achieve that emotionless state. If they were 100% incapable of any emotion...

    Star Trek: Picard

    lol I forgot about that. Originally he wanted giant cod pieces for the Ferrengi I think the show ultimately wanted to show that humans were still...human. As a society, we could evolve. DS9 never tries to shy away from that and there are countless examples where even alien species make...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I'm having trouble finding it, but there were some odd ideas that came towards the end of his life in the late 1980s that I recall reading about that other producers/writers tried to temper Blaming DS9 is dumb. Roddenberry died in 1991. Even if DS9 never existed and tried to push the...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Roddenberry was great and all, but don't forget that in other ways he held back TNG and wasn't really keen on DS9 (which didn't really fully start development until after he had passed away).

    Star Trek: Picard

    I do agree that s3 does have a similar vibe to the TNG movies, but I think that has more to do with the fact they are going for a much more serialized story. SNW is really the only modern live action Trek still in the same vein as the pre-2000s era where you have adventures of the week with...
