    Star Trek: Picard

    I saw a good theory online Remember when Odo got punished and turned into a solid? I recall that Bashir did medical scans and basically confirmed he was human. But Odo was able to become a changeling again when he absorbs that wounded changeling Since the great link could do that to Odo...

    The Mandalorian

    Regard Bo-Katan, I think she will leverage the mythosaur to try to gain power over the group. Since they are ultra traditional, she could easily use that to cement a place of power

    The Mandalorian

    If they're willing to wipe the mind of an asset like that, then that suggests they either have someone who can carry on his work, or they didn't need him anymore. Assassination would have drawn too much attention and clearly they want to stay on the DL - effectively eliminating someone who...

    The Last of Us

    They really need to during the second season. The audience is going to tune out if they don’t make Abby sympathetic before she does that deed. Trying to make her sympathetic after the fact will backfire

    Willow

    It had some redeeming qualities. The dude who played Boorman as a Mad Martigan standin was one of the few likable characters. And some of the callbacks were nice. IMO they could have cut down on the CW teen angst crap and made the some characters more likable (the daughter was too unlikable...

    Willow

    It couldn’t have been cheap and there have been pushes to cut costs, so not surprised it was axed. It did ok on the site, but it never really seemed to generate any major buzz

    Wednesday

    https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/jenna-ortega-rejected-wednesday-offers-film-star-1235554072/ Interesting interview. Seems like Jenna Ortega was getting annoyed by how Wednesday was being written and had to actively try to fix it on set.

    Cocaine Bear (2023)

    It was “Sharknado” funny - basically the dumb premise is the humor and it is an intentionally dumb premise vs unintentionally. But if that doesn’t appeal, then the movie is just dumb Syfy Saturday schlock

    The Last of Us

    That detail alone made me question their plan. If it was interconnected with the host in some manner of symbiotic relationship (or benign parasite), then wouldn’t it be more important to figure how that works? If you kill the host and try to replicate the infection and it doesn’t work, then...

    The Last of Us

    In the game, didn’t they want to kill Ellie because they wanted to harvest all the fungus that had grown interconnected with her brain and nervous system? It always came across to me they wanted a lot of material to work with and didn’t have any contingencies to find a safer option, which seems...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Ammo is fairly easy to get now for free, even high end ammo. If you run Daily Ops (the dungeon thing), all the enemies drop the Ammo type you used to kill them. Even ultracite ammo. The only thing they don’t drop is fusion/plasma cores. They also drop enough of it that you leave with more...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yes and no. Carry weight was a thing in Fallout 4 and since 76 was essentially Fallout 4 mechanics, they kept that. The other problem was because 76 was online and because of Bethesda’s spaghetti code, all that individual shit had to be tracked by the server. I recall early on there were...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Carry weight is the fucking bane of FO76. Like 1/6th my characters perks are for weight reduction and I perma run around in power armor with extra carry weight mods on the legs. They just arbitrarily add too much weight to shit. Like stimpacks or nuka colas weighing 1 lb each by default, etc

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    They released a slightly upscaled fallout 1,2, and tactics on steam. If you had bought fallout 76 way back when Bethesda had its own launcher, you actually got those for free I think. When I converted my Bethesda launcher stuff to steam, the old fallout games carried over as well

    Btw is it just me, or if the first 10 floors in eureka county orthos solo extra hard? Feels like I get non-stop mob spawning bullshit and get fucked over by bad mob combos all aggro at once Granted I am doing it on Samurai and you lose a lot of burst pre90, so that 81-89 stretch is a bit more...

    Carnival Row

    Final 2 episodes land this Friday. It feels like they’re trying to fit 2 seasons of story into one and they’ve been murdering characters left and right. It’s a shame really, as I’ve enjoyed the world building. I’m trying to figure how it ends. The Stalinist commies are pretty clearly the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I kind of like how FF handles PvP. Gear means nothing, you basically get a default template for your class stat wise and some PvP only abilities (your hot bar is different for pvp as well). Most of the abilities are similar to regular abilities, although most are simplified. All classes get...

    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

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    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

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    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

    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...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    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...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    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...

    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
