    Ascent: Infinite Realm

    Game's name is now Elyon. Probably should change the thread title. Closed beta is coming early May. You can sign up at the website. It's Kakao Games who use to publish BDO, so you can use that account if you have one. Elyon Don't hold out much hope for this. Kakao will be wanting a...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Yep. Usually the best way to win a SB though is to have an awesome defense and a QB who is at least good enough to get some points and not turn it over. Trent Dilfer comes to mind. Even Payton Manning at the end of his career was more a game manager. His best days behind him.

    True. And young people are dumber than rocks. Another truth. It all balances out.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    It's interesting that the league and the Texans have not disowned Watson yet. Given the current "me too" culture, the NFL would throw Watson under the bus in a micro-second if there were any concrete proof of misdeeds. He may yet get thrown under the bus, but so far Watson is still a NFL QB.

    Black Desert

    I love the ability to afk and progress in this game. For someone like me who works waaay too fucking much, it's very cool to be able to set up my toon up and come back 12 hours later to see tangible results. My main toon has over 200 days played now and I doubt i've spent more than 5 or 6 of...

    Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)

    Saw this on HBO. Entertaining popcorn movie. You can't take these to seriously, just enjoy the ride. Liked the previous one "Godzilla, King of the Monsters" a bit more. The acting and dialogue are definitely the weak points in these movies but the CGI and fight scenes are glorious. I like that...

    Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

    Just kill off Ryan and make him the series focus. Better character and better actor. Not going to happen given the source material, but it would be a much better show. It's not watchable as it is.

    Be sure to research whatever life skills you intend to do. Some of them like Training and Farming have almost no use for mastery gear. It doesn't hurt, but not really worth investing silver in the high mastery gear for those professions.

    Gangs of London

    Saw the first episode a few weeks back. Really great start. Was looking forward to more when I realized it was just a tease on Amazon Prime (US) to get me to pay for AMC+. Ugg. I'm too cheap. Hope they put the rest on prime eventually.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Watson is going to have issues getting out of this no doubt. But if all of those girls actually said NO! and he forced himself on them then why did NONE of them report it at the time with the police? Yeah, right. Some of these girls might have legitimate complaints, but most of these...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Not a popular opinion, but I always hated Q in TNG. The actor did a good enough job, i just thought the whole concept was very idiotic. Any being that advanced wouldn't bother talking to us "animals". They would be millions or billions of years ahead of us. It would be like us talking to...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Interesting watch. Didn't know that Mooves gave Kurtzman such a strong contract. What a moron. And because of it, Kurtzman will probably be fucking up Star Trek for a long time. What a shame. Star Trek has had it's share of ups and downs. Lots of downs actually. But Trek somehow always managed...

    It's a different game for sure. The gear grind can be overwhelming. But there is also a lot to do that doesn't involve much combat. Some people just life skill and have little interest in spending billions getting +1 on their combat gear. They would rather spend billions getting mastery gear...

    Just wish they would have said something before I turned all of my pen Naru in for Tuvala. Don't have the mats to do a full set again. They thow gear at you so I'm not that bothered by it, but it would have been nice to have gear for some of my umpteenbazillion alts.

    Justified

    I really liked this show at first. But when his ex stole the money and they were playing hide and seek with it, it just seemed a little too contrived (lazy writing) and I lost interest. Need to push through that part and continue someday.

    Harsh. I can never tell wtf is going on with these accusations, especially after they pile up. Is the dude a total cretin or are the accusers all just jumping on the money train?

    Not really that odd. Gruden has likes a 1 2 punch running combo. It mixes up the options and helps keep the backs healthy through the season. Jacobs is great but is already taking a lot of wear and tear after 2 years. He played the last games of the 2019 season with a fractured right shoulder...

    150 family level limit is going keep many, many players out of Velia servers from now on. It's very easy to have 3 toons over level 50, so they still need a catch up mechanic for returning players.

    BDO also has a huge variety of very deep systems to keep you busy. A lot of players don't even bother with combat and just do life skills. Way too much to do in BDO even if you play 24/7. I've been playing off an on since launch and sill haven't gotten around to most of the content.
