    The Mandalorian

    Mando is playing EQ1: Quest design is shit so he is basically spamming key phrases to random NPCs and hopes he finds the next part of the quest

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    If you have at least a small house, you're golden. You don't have to fight other buyers and it is first come-first serve. If you do this, you get a credit of 30% of the minimum value of your current plot towards the purchase. Keep in mind the minimum value is like half the normal plot price...

    No Man's Sky

    One thing I do is if I find a planet I really like, I'll setup a simple base that is basically just a portal and power systems, then I can just teleport back to it whenever I feel like to build out the base more. The biome patch fucked one of my paradise planets, though. It went from a...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    5.4 is supposed to drop in Early Dec. It will feature the finale of the Eden raids and start to lay the main story groundwork for the upcoming expansion. In Feb I think they will have their online fanfaire and it is expected they will reveal the next xpac.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    That will free up a significant number of plots to be sure. It has been off for like 8 months or so.

    No Man's Sky

    You can basically save scum and reroll the frieghter encounter so the free freighter is actually good.

    Netflix officially renewed for season 3. Production starts in Feb.

    Marvel's Avengers

    Their biggest problem was the main campaign was so short. I think if the main campaign had been much longer and you had more variety in the online co-op mission stuff, it may have had longer legs.

    No Man's Sky

    There is a channel called JasonPlays or something that does almost exclusive No Man's Sky videos.

    I'm in the same boat. I remember that being a fad back in the 90s and kids would bring that into school and I could never see shit in them

    Jeopardy!

    Ugh, horrible to hear, but I think everyone feared the worst when the cancer came back. Jeopardy is a cultural institution and he was always synonymous with it. Dude was a legend. Ya, he will never be truly replaced, but I strongly suspect they'll end up going with Ken Jennings as a new...

    At least at self-checkout, you dont have to tell anyone to double bag. A couple years ago I noticed they started to single bag shit, even if it was heavy, unless you specifically told them to double bag. Gee, thanks for putting a bunch of heavy liquids into a single paper bag that is going to...

    The prime discounts can be nice (when they exist), but it def has changed. One thing that concerns me is not many Whole Foods actually have on-site full blown bakery facilities. One I visit has had one for decades, but their bakery department recently changed in terms of layout/etc and I'm...

    The Mandalorian

    Recap video I watched made a funny observation that this episode gave us with GoT never did: Giant ice spiders.

    Summit is a pretty huge streamer. Twitch would be idiotic if they started just doing 3 strikes you're out on their money makers. I suspect they will end up changing their policy soon to something a little less draconian.

    Youtube got in bed with the music industry as well. I'm sure they get a cut of that ad revenue. RIAA is just playing hard ball because they want Twitch to capitulate and give them some nice deal as well, even though music brings virtually nothing to a stream that is actually playing a game.

    The Mandalorian

    After these first couple episodes, I wonder if that will hint at the “tone” shift that rumor mills talked about. It’s currently following an episodic “problem of the week” format with an underlying mission of finding other Mandos and in turn Jedi. Maybe once he finds them, it becomes more...

    That has been an idea bounced around before and it will probably never be solved until we find more evidence on Mars

    The Mandalorian

    Mando literally used a vibro knife at the start of the episode when he got attacked by that crime dude's goons as well.

    Lots of streamers are nuking their VODs on Twitch anyways and tossing them on Youtube because of the DCMA shit going on.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Not a surprise and easy to do if that ends up being real. Limited scenes without the mask and use CGI to show the actor, then majority of his scenes he has mask on. Give him a big sacrifice hero moment, make it all emotional and heartfelt, then pass the mantle on to an established character...

    The Mandalorian

    Ya, those seem like questionable numbers. Everything I can find on the topic shows Boys S2 had higher ratings, but Mando grew over last year and is still the biggest draw on D+

    Apex Legends new free to play battle royale game from Respawn

    Main problem I had with Apex is they kept changing the guns massively in terms of how they performed and it has an extremely long TTK comparatively speaking. Granted I haven't played it in a long time.

    Reasonable latency as well. 100ms or less is better than the 500-600+ stuff with those other carriers. In theory you could actually game on Starlink

    Ashes of Creation

    Virtually every MMO since EQ1 has had a way to turn off spell effects, so it seems like a non-issue to me.

    The most exciting thing for investors is Starlink would have virtually no competition in the satellite high speed internet space for the foreseeable future. You'd basically be able to tap previous markets that had no option for high speed (rural), enhanced travel options (planes and ships...

    Twitch.tv

    The worst thing they do, and plenty of streamers have complained about it, is the instant ad you get the moment you try to join a channel. Most people will just move on immediately, much in the same way where if you are flipping through channels on TV and if you come to a channel with a...

    The Mandalorian

    Only one of the Jango clones anyways. In the prequels, that was Jango's only request for payment: He wanted a clone with no accelerated aging and that would just age normally like any person. All the clone troopers, like Rex, had accelerated aging so while chronologically speaking they would...

    Japanese trains are fucking legendary for being punctual. If the train schedule says a train will be arriving or departing at a specific time, then those are the times.

    If you’ve never experienced it, ya. I was in Japan many years ago and woke up to the entire room swaying/moving. I just sort of kept lying on the bed because I wasn’t sure what to do/still trying to process it after being woken up. I didn’t hear and sirens or alarms after it stopped, so I...

    Batwoman

    Apparently she wears the Ruby outfit for the first episode and then gets her own suit after. Kinda makes sense, sort of like how Spider-Man wore a bootleg outfit until he got a better one.

    Disney spearheaded the current trademark and copyright laws I believe. At this juncture, there is so much money tied up in copyrights, trademarks, and IP that it would be virtually impossible to roll it back to how it used to be long ago.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    As much as people say “lol lore”, having an engaging lore/story is critical to engagement.
