    Odyssey, A Blizzard Entertainment Project

    Interesting to be sure. I’ll be curious how “massive” the servers are, though, in terms of simultaneous players. At a certain point you have to cap that in a resource gathering driven game, otherwise you get Rust where the island is a stripped bare wasteland a month later

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Phantom Liberty will be a paid DLC afaik and probably won’t be until later this year

    He is that guy, after all

    Grogu in basically a mech was pretty funny.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Marshlands are pretty important ecosystem wise - they act as buffers for coastal erosion, play a role in ground water supplies, and lots of animals (including ones we eat) use marshlands for spawning/breeding/getting food As for Starship, I do wonder why they aren't trying to land the Starship...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I understand. The season has been pretty solid and I have confidence they won’t fudge the landing. Ending prediction: The big bad will end up being Keiko O’Brian when she straps those brainwashing game things that Wesley and Ashley Judd tried to thwart to everyone’s head, except this time it...

    Han got killed off because Harrison Ford wanted that

    Star Trek: Picard

    I can say right now you can ignore the first 2 seasons and jump into season 3 and not be lost if you watched TNG/DS9/VOY. There are a couple plot points from the first 2 seasons that carry over, but they still get some exposition in S3 to give a bit of context

    The Astronomy Thread

    That’s cool - looks like the back of a lizard like animal

    Super Mario Bros. (2022)

    Reminds me of that old manga excerpt where the guy logics that people throughout history used non-photographic representations of sex or hot women to get aroused, so if a human is unable to do that with drawings, then they have a defective brain

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    Mostly bad timing on release. The Mario movie is going to poach a lot of the family audience

    No Man's Sky

    Technically you’re always online with randos unless you turn off that feature. You can host games that let you are your friends spawn near eachother, though. You’re still online with randos. You also have to upload your base to the servers to allow other players to find them It’s scale as...

    Super Mario Bros. (2022)

    How is it wrong? I know this forum has the memory of goldfish at times, but the phenomenon of critics sniffing their own farts and being divorced from how general audiences receive a movie has been a thing for a very long time. Specifically, the late 90s/early 2000s is when you start to see a...

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Best part of Bad Batch is it really does a decent job of showing the gradual change that leads to the Empire we know about - the senate still exists, clones are still being used although less and less, and Imperial presence is very slowly starting to creep outwards (which Andor also showed)

    No Man's Sky

    They have added more variety. There are more weird worlds, new animals variety, etc it is very different than launch. Usually the most desirable planet is a paradise planet with bioluminescent plant life

    Super Mario Bros. (2022)

    You act like that is a recent thing. Critics have been out of sync with general audiences for decades The only thing that has really changed is what counts as a critic and too many clout chasers basically do "clickbait" reviews to get eyeballs on them

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    It also wasn't made in Japan by the regular FF developers. Square's US division made it. When it got released in Japan, the title was even changed a bit to reflect it was an American Final Fantasy game.

    Interesting, Non Political News

    Point is at the end of the day, the family and buyer negotiated to keep the goat alive. Then some dipshit at the fairground is like “no! I want goat meat!” and bypassed both of them

    The Mandalorian

    Well he did find some more Ungolants. If they wanted to revisit that plot point, he could take the droid there

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    Even if the movie ends up being bad, the old school hand drawn art movie poster looks great

    Ahsoka

    Apparently they also announced a Star Wars crossover movie that will be the culmination of Mando and Ashoka - so I suspect Thrawn won’t get defeated in Ashoka and the movie will be the team up to try to defeat Thrawn and the Imperial remnants

    Ahsoka

    Cartoon Thrawn is pretty faithful to the books. Rewards creative thinking from people under his command and constantly playing 5D chess. Studies the culture of his foes to get insight into their thought process. In the cartoon the plans failing usually were because of 3rd party Imperial...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I also really liked how they resolved the Data/Lore thing. That is great writing there and 100% in character for both

    Riot Games MMO

    Those sort of decisions don't exist in a vacuum, though. I mean I was never a Ghostcrawler fan in WoW (tbh I was usually indifferent), but it isn't like he would just say "this goes" and then everyone lock steps behind him.

    I don't get much stuttering/lag, although I turned down my graphics settings to make the 50v50 shit perform better

    Star Trek: Picard

    Sisko did hate Picard, initially at least. Don’t forget he was in the pilot episode of DS9

    The PVP Meta got shaken up hard is one thing. I feel like I have a fraction of the survivability I used to have

    The Mandalorian

    Star Wars droids act and seem sentient, but they are property and essentially slaves. Did extended universe ever explore this, like droid uprisings?

    Star Trek: Picard

    They are dragging out the Jack thing, but Troi did give us more clues 1) All consuming darkness 2) Ancient and Weak 3) It is swirling around Jack vs actually being a part of Jack Plus the red door was literally giving off black smoke in the vision and has multiple voices. I still think Pah...

    The Mandalorian

    Also it makes Bo-Katan look better morally and let her develop. The fact she didn't take the saber and tell Dinn it was hers now helped highlight she wasn't in a power hungry mindset. Think about how she was portrayed at the end of season 2 - totally gave off the "fuck you, that was my...

    No Man's Sky

    You can find other players - problem is the galaxy is so big that you never run across them randomly. The weekend events usually put everyone in the same system and people start to explore planets from there, so you can come across other players for weeks afterwards

    The Mandalorian

    They literally called the Mon Calamari a prince and was a guy’s voice and the squid alien had a woman’s voice You’re welcome to dive deeper into the biological lore of those alien species on your own time if you want to really focus on this lol

    Secret Invasion

    I would be ecstatic if they brought some Agents of Shield show characters into this, but I doubt they will lol

    The Mandalorian

    This episode will result in fish x squid erotic Star Wars fanfic now It sort of felt like a cartoon episode in live action. Not horrible, but definitely not great. I did like how they actually addressed the audience question of why Bo Katan saving Mando after he lost the saber didn’t count -...

    Obiwan was so bad, I forgot that was a show until you mentioned it. I had blocked the memories

    New World

    Speaking of gear, apparently the patch caused some people to spawn into the game naked and unable to move, with all their gear missing lol

    New World

    The game has a really odd armor skin issue: The ingame drops look decent many times, but the paid skins frequently look like ass with some rare exceptions. The last paid skin that looked really nice was the winged knight set, which came out a year ago

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Puts in perspective how relatively "old" they were when they were active in wrestling - most were in their mid to late 30s

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    37% complete rate is pretty bad for a big budget show like that.
