    They really haven’t gone into any detail on islands, but YoshiP has tried to temper expectations on them being full fledged housing Think more MoP farm from WoW

    I want that dark souls looking skin Asmon showed on stream - was all white with a Red Cross across the face of the helm

    Not a big fan of them removing the kaitsen ability from Sam - 50% damage boost on demand was nice

    Halo

    Ya, 2nd episode was pretty much exposition dump and setting up a more familiar plot (Cortana being authorized, the Halo ring)

    Star Trek: Picard

    Pretty good episode - referenced Gary 7 from ToS and hinted at the genesis of the eugenics wars. Only triggering thing is Picard mentions the Europa mission finding life in Io - what??? Why the fuck would a mission to Europa go to a volcanic moon?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    City of Heroes tried with controllers - the idea of mitigation of damage through disabling enemies. It’s very difficult to balance correctly, though. Anything that involves your party not hitting the mobs is always going to fail

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Warlocks came the closest, with demons anyways. You could charm a demon, banish one, or fear juggle them.

    Crystal Tower wasn't made MSQ mandatory until like 5.1 I think. When ShB first launched, it was optional and dialogue options were different depending on whether or not your character ever completed the Crystal Tower raid series. I strongly suspect they will make another one of the trial/raid...

    Most people guessed the identity that paid attention/did the story in ARR, but the game made you second guess yourself a bunch of times.

    Halo

    There was female Spartans over 20 years ago in the Fall of Reach novel. This was pre-fall, the Spartan II program had a mix of both male and female Spartans.

    Twitch.tv

    It's just doing what TV and even Youtube did many years ago - guest stars, crossovers between channels/shows, etc. Helps raise awareness for their own respective properties, and depending on the pairing and their chemistry or their interplay, it can enhance overall viewer numbers.

    My guess is season 3 will bring back the reaper AI shit. Nu-Borg and the synths will save the galaxy, tying the first 2 seasons together

    Halo

    I liked it, but I never followed Halo lore too much. I liked the Fall of Reach book. The Mando comparison is pretty straight on, though. Colony girl is baby Yoda lol

    Star Trek: Picard

    Nah, they are going for a racial analogy, although it’s being handled clumsily. Episode 1 has Seven feeling uncomfortable with the way she is treated because it’s clear she was Borg once. Borg appear and everyone (rightfully) freaks out and Picard opts to destroy the ship rather than risk it...

    Star Trek: Picard

    It seems that way. Ignoring those dumb fucking "Borg Queen is Picard's mom!!!1!!" theories, Agnes makes the most sense. The Borg Queen seems to see something useful about her/similar to herself in Agnes, and you can tell Agnes is tempted but still cautious enough to avoid just getting straight...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    The one thing I did like is the 10-C alien concept - extremely alien in both how they view other life or even communicate. Plus they weren't bad or evil, they just didn't realize what they were doing was causing damage to intelligent life because their concept of intelligence was so different...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Raffi feels like the least Trek like Trek character - she is constantly irrational unless the plot calls for her to be rational suddenly, flies off the handle randomly, is generally unlikable, etc. And you're supposed to be a Federation Captain/Officer? She feels the most out of place of the...

    Halo

    Haven’t watched this yet, but from what I recall, the original Spartans were basically like that Kurt Russel movie “Soldier”. They kidnapped/raised a bunch of kids under grueling conditions with a high fatality rate, augmented them further (more fatalities), and produced a small but super elite...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Kind of a sleepy episode. Biggest take aways are something is in fact wrong with Q, Laris might not be a Romulan, and hiring a new actor is cheaper than de-aging Whoopi Goldberg

    FFXIV: uses concepts like Great Filter/Fermi Paradox and Ancient Greek philosophy for story inspiration WoW: uses the MCU for story inspiration and recycles the “…there is a bigger evil than me!” trope

    Regarding bots, I went to do Blackfang quests and saw a lot of bots. I had to go to Atlas island (pvp) and there was a high level zerker standing at the quest handin and just murdering the nonstop stream of bots. I killed about 80 before I got bored and left lol

    Gravity lens could be used with our own sun as well - in theory, if you placed the telescope in just the right spot at the right distance, you could potentially be able to directly image an exoplanet in another star system

    Ya, software or massive airframe failure are the most likely reasons. The brief pull-up suggests the former

    Doctor Who

    Couple years back Twitch was showing all the classic Doctor Who from the 60s through 80s. Early Daleks were lol. Pushed off a boat and the thing falling apart mid fall, or people owning a Dalek with a metal pipe alone. Or getting hit by a crappy car and shattering
