    What We Do in the Shadows

    Hah, Guillermo is quickly becoming my favorite character.

    DDO (D&D Online)

    Why does this game cause my video card's fans to spin up? Holy crap.

    Penny Dreadful: City of Angels

    How was the original series? I watched a little bit until the gay shit starting piling on.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    I'm sure all of us here have watched that Joe Rogan interview. But from what Lazar described the technology is so far advanced it sounded as if we have no fucking clue how to reverse engineer any of it. So I don't think anything productive has come from it. Again, I'm thinking some of these...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    If Bob Lazar isn't lying then all these sightings could simply be us experimenting with the technology.

    The Last Kingdom

    I believe the "Aethel" prefix denotes royalty.

    Future Man

    Yeah this was a great series. First season probably contained the most laughs for me, although all were great. Derek Wilson definitely needs his own show. Funny dude.

    Westworld

    What I find particularly hilarious is the constant droning of dramatic music during boring scenes.

    Investing General Discussion

    Serious question: doesn't one think that the nations that depend on oil revenue will, at some point in the not-so-distant-future, do something to drive the price up?

    Pets

    I'm actually having a similar experience. I've had a rather large female cat come around the house. Previously, when it saw me, it would run off. But one day I knelt down and it came right up to me. Now, if I open the deck door, it'll stroll right into the house. It appears well fed and it...

    Tales from the Loop

    I watched the first 3 episodes and liked it well enough, but may drop it since the general consensus seems to be thumbs-down. But, question for those that watched the entire season:

    Westworld

    Serious question: what motivates people to keep watching this? It's been an absolute bore-fest.

    DDO (D&D Online)

    Never played this. I assume this has dungeons? If so, what are they like? Require any strategy? Or are they dumbed down for the average retard?

    Do you guys have a favorite keyboard for coding?

    Guild Wars 2

    Same here. I played a Guardian at release and stopped about a month in. I decided to try it again and switched to a thief. Having way, WAY more fun. Combat is entirely enjoyable. Absolutely love the pew-pew Deadeye thief.

    Guild Wars 2

    By the way, if anyone is looking for a good PvE build guide for a particular profession check out this series: Best Guild Wars 2 Builds for PvE I followed his P/P Deadeye build and I'm solo'ing stuff in PoF pretty easily now.

    Star Trek: Picard

    I stopped watching about 5 episodes in. Did the Borg cube storyline have any significance?

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Any opinions or facts on the reliability of Chargers, Challengers, and Dodge in general? I've consistently heard, throughout the years, that Dodge has garbage reliability and it's gotten even worse after the Fiat takeover. I have a friend that insists that they are amazingly reliable vehicles...

    The Magicians

    Isn't this show based on a series of books? I just assumed each season was basically adapting the story to whatever occurred in book 'X'. I enjoyed the series, but season 1 was my favorite with The Beast. The battle with him during that season finale was edge-of-your-seat.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Maybe its just me but at this point in my MMO career I have ZERO desire to run around talking to NPCs with "!" over their head and then clicking through numerous dialog options. This is fine for a single player RPG, but for an MMO I have no patience for it anymore.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Another good one:

    Star Trek: Picard

    Frustrates me that Patrick Stewart signed up for this shit.

    Westworld

    I actually enjoyed the 2nd episode. I find Maeve more interesting than Dolores. Hotter too, honestly. Looked great in that white dress.

    Guild Wars 2

    So, riddle me this, what's the point of doing the high-end content if gear upgrades are minimal past exotic? Anyway, I followed your advice and looked at the Metabattle site. My spec was already close to what they recommended for Deadeye P/P. However, I bit the bullet and bought all exotic...

    Guild Wars 2

    I feel kind of lost in this game. I recently made 80 and accumulated enough hero points to have bought all my core thief skills. Everything's great. So then, I bought the deal which includes Path of Fire and Heart of Thorns .Started the PoF story in order to get my mount. Holy shit, got...

    Westworld

    I miss Clementine. Was she permanently killed? I can't remember.
  27. ShakyJake

    Westworld

    The problem for me is, no one is likable. Dolores and Maeve used to be sympathetic characters. Now they are blood thirsty murderers. Who is the hero in this story? Who am I supposed to root for? There is no one!

    Star Trek: Picard

    I stopped watching 3 episodes back. But, what the fuck?

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    That's what I'm playing. But healing isn't very exciting. Slap down the AoE healing circle and mash the big heal if someone takes a lot of damage. Rinse and repeat. Are all abilities instant cast? Besides maybe the ultimates? There doesn't seem to be any timing required at all for ability...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Just coming here to rant. So I'm taking my final college course this semester in which I'll finally complete my degree in Computer Science. The course is Discrete Mathematics. I swear to God I'm ready to punch my monitor this shit is so stupid. We have this teacher who is obviously a math...

    Batwoman

    I haven't watched the show, but is it full of typical CW SJW shit? Or is the show just bad?

    Stumptown

    It isn't too bad. Actually, not bad at all. I think that was about the only episode that may be construed as SJW-ish. Good show. Not my favorite but I like the characters.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    This game's art is so strange. Some things look and animate fantastic. Whereas other parts look nearly as amateurish as EQ2. Even though I know the community here hates such things, I do appreciate that there exists a dungeon finder in ESO. At this point in my MMO career I really don't have...

    Finished season 1. Quite good but the finale shocking reveal revealed a plot hole? Spoilering this because of potential new viewers...

    Good to know! I just recently picked this back up. One episode left, will watch tonight.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Honestly, I think attempting to go there is folly. Risk of failure way too high. Orbital habitats is the way to go.

    This is one of the many reasons I dislike ESO...

    The Magicians

    Honestly, I think the show has run its course and probably should conclude. But would prefer it to wrap up in a meaningful way.

    Doctor Who

    Has anyone on the production staff acknowledged they fucked up bigly?
