    Final Fantasy 16

    People always forget FF games have had sci-fi elements since day 1. In FF1, you go to a space station and fight robots and mechs and shit. And I love that. Pure High fantasy (Aka not even any magic tech) puts me to fucking sleep.

    Can always do the FFT raid series in FFXIV to temporarily ease your pain lol Back to the thread, I haven’t seen any confirmation you only play as 1 person only in combat. The trailer only showed that, but I would reserve judgement until something more official comes out from a gameplay...

    I do agree that Superbad is pretty much 100% forgettable outside McLovin.

    Venus had lots of things that impacted it: Slow rotation (a Venus day is pretty much the same as a year), no plate tectonics, no magnetic field. I would be curious if the slow rotation was the eventual result of the thick atmosphere, or if something else caused that. Slow rotation would have...

    Awhile back they automatically flipped everyone to hide adult content, so you have to turn that off. Media search was also nerfed a couple years back to not return any adult results. However, regular searches work just fine.

    Tatooine can be forgiven because the Hutts ran the planet and they knew well of the Jedi. Not a stretch that the broader organization would have had a greater awareness of them.

    TBH not surprised. Twitter is a fucking cesspit of trolls and bullies. If it wasn't for the fact it was the only major social media site that hasn't banned tits, then there would be no reason to use it lol

    Yoshida did a great job with FFXIV and honestly the story in FFXIV is the best story in a FF game for decades. Cautiously optimistic.

    Fallout 76

    New patch dropped. Biggest changes are dynamic mob levels like ESO (high level and low level can fight same mob and get a comparable challenge based on their level specific build/etc) and daily ops. Daily Ops are like a timed challenge run where you have to do certain tasks within a time...

    I still don’t buy that filter hypothesis. Is it reasonable that a civilization or species ends for various reasons? Sure, we see it all the time. But life being common in the universe doesn’t mean we’re fucked because we haven’t encountered advanced life.

    They did, but they were basically Ancients level in tech and during the show, SG never got to that level of tech.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Battle Royale is overrated, to be honest. I remember watching it back in the early 2000s. Maybe it was because people had been hyping it up, but I thought it was merely okay. I think if they had gone full Running Man with it and embraced the whole "watch people murder each other for...

    The Russian space program sent a successful balloon probe to Venus back in the 70s, so doing something similar would be completely viable. They would just need to figure out something that is significantly more resistant to acid so they could get a longer term mission going.

    Stargate: Origins

    This is likely. They'll go to some galaxy that is far beyond the range of their current hyperdrive tech, so they can't just have the Earth fleet show up and kick ass. Then they will keep it that way until the plot requires otherwise.

    Well, it would have been a one way trip. He would never see his people ever again.

    Stargate: Origins

    Probably a solid bet and good way to "clear the table". Basically make it like an extreme version of Atlantis, where they now have a new galaxy to explore.

    Stargate: Origins

    SGU started to get a bit better when they realized they aren't Battlestar Galactica and they lightened up a bit. It also (plot wise) was getting more interesting just prior to cancelation. It's rough for Sci-fi shows now. A show like ST: Enterprise probably would have gotten the standard 7...

    Stargate: Origins

    Potentially. They would also have to find an angle. 1) Earth is super powerful by the end of SG1 and Atlantis. You either make a threat that matches that (not the fucking Lucien Alliance, the pilot to SGU was fucking dumb when a bunch of standard Gouald motherships are beating the shit out...

    Pretty intriguing if true. Despite Venus' surface being a hellscape, it's upper atmosphere is rather temperate and also dense. Venus is also theorized to have been more conducive to life in it's distant past, so it is quite possible life evolved, some of it ended up in the upper atmosphere and...

    It's basically a Rogue-Like dungeon crawl. You progress up the floors until you hit the top. It is mostly for leveling alts, but there are other rewards locked behind them. The biggest thing is your progress is saved on a per-party basis, so it makes it nearly impossible to PUG (ie, if...

    I agree they could have. One thing that stood out when I watched a brand new player stream their first time playing ARR is that there were still a lot of "let's recap what we literally just discussed 5 minutes ago" that existed because of the original gaps in MSQ story patches. I'm honestly...

    You hit on another point: WoW both elevated and killed the MMO market, and now it is much harder to fund AAA mmos because the investment vs. return just isn't there. Part of FFXIV's success is no doubt people sick of WoW and wanting something on that same tier (it also helped that Yoshi P had...

    Pretty much Mafia/Werewolf. It's basically The Thing. 1-2 players are The Thing and have to sabotage/kill other players, and the other players have to try to guess who The Thing is. Like if someone finds a dead body and reports it, then all players go into a lobby and discuss/vote. You can...

    I fucking hate that. Korean dev houses always produce amazing beautiful games with interesting gameplay mechanics...then they pay2win the fuck out of it and make it so if you aren't paying hundreds of dollars a month, you'll never be top tier.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The MSQ pacing was them trimming out a lot of the "go here, talk to dude, pray return to the waking sands, talk, go here, repeat" crap that made the post-Ultima->Heavensward MSQ grind even more of a chore. I don't see how removing that is "bad". I've always used the analogy that FFXIV is...

    Butcher is more likable in the show, but he is definitely a "are you useful? do you forward my agenda/goal?" type of guy. He's shown that he has no issues dropping folks when they no longer suit his needs. This entire time, it has been revolving around his wife (be it revenge for her "death"...
