    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Ya, the base/ship building looks fucking cool. My favorite parts of the more recent Fallouts was the base building, so glad they are going fullbore with this in Starfield. Looks like 3 factions from the trailer: UCC, the space "Texans", and the Pirates. I'll be curious to see what the...

    Overwatch 2

    I wouldn't be shocked if they go the Warzone route: Battlepass and rotating store selection for maximum FOMO.

    New World

    The PVP XP track they added is another way to earn really nice gear - most people run the PVP missions in GC to get XP because you can run 2 missions in sub-5 minutes (fastest in the game), which has resulted in a lot more world PVP because you earn even more XP if you kill people. The PVP XP...

    Overwatch 2

    This is interesting. It looks like they will be releasing the PVP part of OW2 as "early access" on October 4th and it will be free to play. I'm curious how the f2p model will end up shaking out - that makes me think that there won't be any free cosmetics anymore, outside of special events or...

    New World

    One idea I had to both encourage town management and discourage "lol free money!" for the controlling company would to remove all funds automatically going into the company coffers. Instead, the money ends up in a town bank. The company in control can withdraw money from the town bank, but the...

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    I forget the name of that movie, but it was that pretentious film where the brother dies and the mother is "WHYYY???" and it randomly cuts to follow some fucking dinosaurs before the asteroid hits. That movie was award bait trash

    New World

    I suspect the Ancient Rome/Egyptian zones will be the "big" content piece they will hope draw people back. Some additional things I would like to see 1) Wars are great content, but only a very small subset of the population actually gets to experience it (either due to RNG or because no one...

    DOTA: Dragon's Blood

    Season 3 is coming this August. That is a pretty fast turn around, which makes me think the rushed feel of S2 may have been the result something that impacted production

    New World

    What is funny about your post is they have pretty much rolled back/changed everything you quoted as problems, which all but confirms those were major driving factors with players quitting the games

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    The shitty Avengers game scared Square-Enix away from Western live service games

    New World

    The basic lore is basically this is some lost continent that used to have some type of ancient, powerful civilization on it. There is some resource called Azoth that functionally makes everything immortal/undead. So you've got Conquistador shit, but then you've also got Colonial times outfits...

    They got renewed for a 4th season

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    Reva is a lame character - like others mentioned, she hams it up too much for her scenes. Since they have taken quite a bit from the Fallen Order game thus far, I wonder if this was Reva's original ending in the mini-series: Admit that falling to the dark side was a mistake, then Vader shows...

    Maybe they decided to channel this? lol

    Mounts are less of an concern now with the fast travel changes and the addition of new teleport shrines

    They should have done this months ago - the “buy dungeon spot” shit was an immediate turnoff for most of the Playerbase

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    This weeks episode was solid - great moral dilemma.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    Ya, that was odd. It looked like they were flying into the hanger and were just mere feet away from a wall, then they are suddenly outside again

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    I thought it was kind of funny that they had a youngling in the trophy room. Like Vader embraced the meme

    Prey

    You didn’t watch the trailer - it showed some European dudes with muskets as well. So guessing this is 1600s/1700s maybe? They showed horses, so it is post Spanish reintroducing them to North America (fun fact: Horses AND Camels both evolved in North America. They went extinct here around...

    New World

    I still play the game. I had a really active guild until all the sweat lords xfered to Marammas and took over the server and we lost our towns and couldn’t get war declarations. Now we’ve fractured, with a good chunk going to Orofena or Castle of Steel I still log in mostly for the people -...

    Some pretty good laughs. I lol'd when he started to shake his ass and the Sin Eater gets scared and runs away

    I liked the Omega quest they added.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Interested to see what the Omega stuff ends up being - between all the Omega/Dragon stuff in EW and now this bonus quest, I am 100% convinced they are going to bring back the Omicrons as the focus of an expansion in the future...

    Love, Death & Robots

    One reason to appreciate it is the original ElDorado “myth” had origins in Conquistadors supposedly observing a ritual where a royal figure, covered in gold dust/other riches, would step into the water and the water would wash away the gold dust and they would leave the other riches as an...

    His plan will probably backfire because Cruz is an idiot and the takeaway message he will get is "ban video games"

    He snagged Mia Malkova as a gf and got her to stop doing b/g porn, so he must be doing something right

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    Vader just casually murdering families and people just to draw Obi-Wan out was pretty good. I will say one thing about the newer Star Wars stuff with Vader: They do try to go out of their way to try to explain why so many people piss their pants at the mention of Darth Vader

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    I’m reserving judgement until the next episode. If it turns out Vader let Obi go because he wants to get more info on the fledgling help network, that might make a bit more sense. Although this show has a running theme of easy to bypass obstacles stopping characters (branches, laser fence)

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Chapel was all ready for Spock to dish on what he did in the body lol. Farscape still holds the title for “most realistic depiction of what would happen if people swapped bodies” I did like the Diplomatic b story. You’re right that it had shades of Darmak: really unorthodox diplomatic/...

    Beavis and Butt-head

    SNW is good - feels like Classic/90s Trek. Characters are likable, adventure of the week with serialized character elements. I can’t stand Discovery and Picard was mostly mediocre with a few bits I liked. Paramount also has the South Park movies

    The Book of Boba Fett

    They left the door open for Cad Bane to return if they want. Them doing a slow zoom on the blinking light on his outfit with the beep sound was 100% intentional.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Still don't forget the Mando episode of Boba Fett was better than the rest of the series. I think it was just a case of "we don't know what to do with this character" with Boba

    Cyberpunk 2077

    The mayor storyline is definitely the strongest thread to pull on for a main story continuation for the DLC. Combine that with the AI beyond the wall infiltrating Night City and you've got a really solid recipe for a good story continuation and a potential solve for V's issue that the main...

    The Expanse

    There are 3 books that take place after the end of the show. They also take place over 20 years later, so in a way it is sort of like a "soft sequel" to wrap up all the shit left unresolved in the first 6 books (Protomolecule/Wormhole aliens and Laconia)
