Anyone playing Trails in the Sky? While I'm not generally into anime aesthetic games at this point, friend got me the remake so I'm playing it. Never played any of the Trails games, but I've heard they're the great traditional RPG series of the 2010's+ in the mold of your Suikodens and Grandias...

Another thing about the 10,000 BC movie that I forgot to mention: When they're showing the three Great Pyramids being constructed by the slave legions and elephants while the Atlanteans oversee it, there is a giant gold point installed at the apex of one of them to turn it into a sharply-pointed...

The fuck does all this mean? I get Modern Warfare II on disc, I install Modern Warfare II, I patch Modern Warfare II, and now I go through that platform to install the Modern Warfare II Launcher. The hell is a "premium game sold separately"? What did I actually buy? Why are games all retarded...

Well, unless Bethesda issues a "the intern who runs our Twitter posted something inappropriate and inaccurate and has been fired" type statement, they just lost whatever interest I still had in Elder Scrolls 6. Nothing was lost, Bethesda sucks now anyway. Still have to play Skyrim, but I...

This Virtual Boy thing would be cool if it was just straight emulation (playing it on the TV in as 3D-ish as they can make it). However, you need a $100 add-on, and it's a headache-inducing headset, plus you need the Switch Online Plus or whatever the expensive subscription is. What teh fock

The one cool thing about Virtual Boy is the Wario Land game on there. TBH I like that game (and the Wii one, Wario Land: Shake It) more than I liked any of the actual numbered Wario Land sequels on the GBC and GBA. I mean, Wario Land 4 was okay, but 2 and 3 bored me to tears and went on way too...

I'll believe Metroid Prime 4 exists when I actually see it on a store shelf. The bike stuff...why Nintendo has burned through all their goodwill with me over the years so I'm not going to jump up and down cheering every time they announce something like their fanbase does.

I think it's safe to say that this thread has a TV show record for instances of the word "retarded"...and unfortunately, it's deserved. Still liked watching it.

I predict the eye monster gets Boy Kavalier before the end (after his order to place the eye monster in a "low IQ" person like the janitor to see what happens, he deserves a bit of comeuppance). Then the island gets nuked. It's the only way to be sure. Season 2 can be about the other...

They are, though. There's a subsection of the population that has never heard "no" in their lives.

Agreed. The goat standing around just sorta casually watching all the chaos happening around it has been a consistent source of amusement. It's a weird, malevolent goat.

Episode 8 must be the one that people were hugely into. Just saw it. Wild episode. I don't know what the hell was going on for 70% of it, or what all of those parts had to do with anything, but it was visually-stunning the same way 2001: A Space Odyssey was. Tammy is so goddamn hot. I need...

5th episode was awesome and easily the high point of the show so far (and given that it's a bit of a standalone prequel, it'll probably remain the best thing the show did). The first 15 minutes of Episode 1 can be watched right before Episode 5 to get the full story of the Maginot. That plus Ep...

Finished the original show, recommend it to anyone who hasn't. Can definitely say that the show aged decently and is still worth watching, though it isn't for everyone, and it's easy to trail off during the back half of the original series. It felt like the most bizarre, written-on-drugs soap...

Yeah, definitely looks like counter measures. Notice how the missile arcs around after impact? Not sure if it's responding to a gravitational field around the object, or automatically regaining its initial trajectory (I don't know how advanced hellfires are). If hellfires are about 4 feet...

Does seem slow for a missile, but maybe the footage is slowed down. Wondering what the three small orbs are that "break off" of the main orb while continuing to follow it. Some sort of defensive mechanism? Actual damage to the object?

You know you're getting old when you see Charlie Kirk was born in 1993 and realize he was actually ten years younger than you.

Also my issue. Having characters be kids in adult bodies seems like a good way to cover up for the writers also being kids in adult bodies. Considering that a lot of the other characters also sound like they were written by kids.

Keep getting distracted away from my Morrowind run, it still isn't finished. My character is probably at "endgame level" and can fly, but I've hardly done any of the main story. Went through a whole odyssey of selling things to the Mudcrab Merchant to make exorbitant amounts of money. Every play...

I 'member when it was called the Rosemont Horizon back in the day. Surprised they didn't run the much bigger/nicer United Center, it would have filled up for a momentous event like this. The AJ return probably came together fairly recently, after the building was signed off.

Sekiro was by and large a lot easier than I expected it to be after all the hype. The only fights that really gave me any legitimate grief on NG were Headless Ape, Demon of Hatred, and the final boss. (And Shura Ending Isshin on NG+) Demon of Hatred was the worst out of all of them and took me...

I've been thinking this for a while. Got a couple friends playing and they're suited up in astronaut suits worth of armor to try and survive. I keep emphasizing that being fast (and using the right talismans) is probably a lot more important than armor but they insist that they survive better...

Midir and Gael are the only two bosses left in the entire Soulsborne universe that I haven't killed. Didn't really try Gael, DID try Midir and couldn't do it. By that point in Souls 3 I was pretty tuckered out with the game and trying over and over wasn't that appealing anymore. Can also more or...

Radahn down, SOTE down. 3rd try (of this last set of attempts, I lost a bunch of times at earlier points). Did everything I could possibly find in the DLC before this latest try, including the super secret under-the-ocean legacy dungeon with a bunch of grace points and St. Trina... didn't even...

That's wrestling star Liv Morgan. She a good farm girl. Her arrest was kinda bullshit, she was super polite to the cops and she wasn't speeding by that much IIRC. Went to jail because she had a micro amount of weed in the car and it was in Florida. Great state for not having the government...

Oh no kidding, didn't realize the Dragon-Hunter sword had some sort of +dragon component to it. Makes sense though. Says "designed for colossal dragons" on the L2 skill which I'm guessing is very specific (maybe just Bayle) and it won't benefit me on regular dragons (if there are any left)...

Found an actual pleasant woman in the minefield of Exorcist-screeching main character girlbosses getting arrested: This girl is very pleasant and charming (many would say annoying). Fun-loving, pierced tongue, pierced nipple (the top is see-through once the channel stops blurring it). Most...

Hey I know that last one! Been binge-watching body cam arrest videos while I do other things lately, and seeing how the women act in those videos, with the screeching and wailing and rolling up into a ball and shit... If this is in any way emblematic of how young women behave these days, then...

What's wrong with women being lawyers? What about all those "high-powered lawyer girlboss" characters in movies and shows? They win all their cases easily while also trying to juggle a love life involving their simp, who is handsome and rich of course.

That was your takeaway from that absurdly close fight? "Hurr durr lady boys"? I actually agree with you on guys playing chicks in MMOs, when it's a largely first-person game and other people are interacting with you as if you're a chick, that's kinda fucked up. Never played a chick in an MMO...

Bayle, what an absolutely insane fight. Totally worthy of the title of "superboss" alongside Radahn. Had a much tougher time with this than Malenia even. Look at the HP remaining on all the meters, and look at the complete lack of heals remaining. Just a hell of a fight.

Seems to me like there might be more evidence of Atlas being a craft than there is of Atlas being a natural phenomenon, at this point. They can't explain it's behavior, and every attempt to attribute it to natural causes falls apart. This also calls into question what the hell Oumuamua actually...

Have cleared everything in Shadow of the Erdtree that I've found, except Bayle and Radahn. As we can see here, I can still barely even scratch Bayle. Using +25 Keen Backhand Blades with S tier Dex scaling and it's still chip damage. Unreal. Going to have to go back to 2x Blood Curved Swords (the...

Figured out why this show doesn't feel big or important. I've never once felt like Earth is in any kind of peril from the Xenomorph menaces. The characters all seem pretty unconcerned (most of them being androids doesn't help) and while everything has been confined to the wrecked ship, I don't...

Finally got around to this. The bipedal sheep controlled by the eyeball parasite was the freakiest thing on the show. The eyeball parasite in general was the most horrifying alien (the cat scene is something you can't un-see). Liked all of the world building. It was a bit slow at times, and...

I might have already posted this a while back, but I love how Cyrodil/The Empire makes such good use of natural geographic borders. It's got mountains to the north, rivers to the east, and the capitol itself is surrounded by a massive moat. They've also got two outlets to the sea for ports. As...

Anybody playing the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake this weekend? Best Metal Gear Solid game out of all of them, and it's getting a Demon Souls style makeover from Bluepoint (do Bloodborne next plx) Don't see a thread for it, surprised there isn't any discussion about it. It's going to be a good...

Playing this finally, went with a Dark Elf from Morrowind, with a Thief star sign (since Luck tends to be the hardest stat to raise) and the Spellsword as a class since it had no wasted skills and I'd like to go Heavy Armor for a change. Couple questions about the story: Who is the Emperor...

Nice, I'm tracking it down now. I'll check out that Aliens version too. Anything worth revisiting Alien 1 for?

Well guys, I'm gonna probably be going to prison for a while. It's been good
