    The Book of Boba Fett

    Scooter gang was dumb, but I did like the Rancor. They seem to be hinting we will see a battle rancor later with Boba wanting to learn to ride one. The Hutts basically selling out the Wookie was predictable and will probably fit into my previous “saved = loyalty” post about the underlying...

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    I disagree with one of his points: from the getgo, it was clear this was a moba model. He talks about it like it was a bait and switch that went from shooter to moba all of a sudden. Anyways, main cause of decline is simple: it got stale. They never really shook up the gameplay, people got...

    I mean they waited so long to do a follow up, no surprise it’s gonna be a full reboot.

    Direct VoD dumps usually don’t get many views. Editing takes time and money. If the time+money part exceeds what you get back in as dollars, then it isn’t worth it

    Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty...

    It’s about control. Usually that type of mentality is insecure, so they weaponize that insecurity to “prevent” the loss they are insecure about. They don’t want to leave, they want to control the situation on their own terms. It’s basically emotional terrorism: meet my demands or suffer the...

    MMORPG vs RPG?

    It wouldn’t. The most EQ like MMO to come out in terms of tone recently was New World and 90% of the population peaced out

    I can't recall where that was mentioned, but it may have been one of the short stories they posted on their website

    It had less to do with being exceptional than being in the right place at right time to avoid being sundered was my understanding. If Emet wasn’t exploring the lifestream when it happened, he would have been split too

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Ascians in the past were decent was the point. I’m not talking ARR, I’m talking the unsundered world. But yes, they became monsters later. Emet even mentions at the end end that his ideals and what have you didn’t change. The game does do an excellent job of making you understand why Emet...

    MMORPG vs RPG?

    Not sure why the original post is comparing live service games with single player games. Apples/oranges, if only in support unless you count a modding community churning out content like for Skyrim

    Dexter: New Blood

    In season 2, Dexter wrestled with the Doakes dilemma. I mean, at his core Dexter was a psychopath that had direction for his urges. He went cold turkey and got a taste of his drug and flat out started to loosen his code adherence to get that high again. Then Harrison gets into the picture and...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    They should have a scene where Boba kills the Hutts, then 20 years later gets invited to a Mandalorian ceremony, but the room is empty and Fennec shoots him in the back of the head

    Twitch.tv

    That post makes me think he is applying to companies that aren’t a good fit, but he thinks they are. I have a cousin who was a web developer and always applied for those types of jobs, but ran into stability issues. I recall one piece of advice given was try to focus on jobs at companies that...

    LEGO thing is probably mostly due to money. Cooling IP probably means less sales, so they pull this to get out of or renegotiate the licensing deal

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    JesseCox had a pretty good theory: Lahabrea is just a title, so we don’t know the real name of Lahabrea in ARR/HW. Another theme is the Ascians in the past have generally turned out to be mostly decent people. His theory is the Lahabrea in the raid isn’t the Lahabrea we know. Rather, we...

    If he just likes to rush in, the devastator would probably be a good fit for him since they are tanky with the right abilities

    They could go for it, but it could horribly backfire on them. Twitch wont just crackdown on TV shows, they'll crackdown on reacting to youtube videos and shit

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    This is just more "get off my lawn" syndrome. Twitch chat speak is just the new internet shorthand, although those phrases show up as words in that screen because you dont have TTV installed or the streamer has them disabled. We looked just as fucking dumb to outsiders when we were using ASCII...

    The Expanse

    It's a valid point if you are adapting material. Usually TV adaptations trim the fat, so to speak. If you spread out the story even more, you basically are reinserting that fat into the story. Nice for world building, but it doesnt always make good TV.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Technomancer blight builds are pretty solo friendly. I would use a tactical AR and you want perks for your build that stack damage, free reload upon kills or whatever, the one that gives you a bonus clip of blight rounds, and a perk that makes shit you kill blow up and hurt other stuff...

    7 Days to Die

    They still keep chugging away at it, which is great. But ya, optimization is ass in the game. If you try to run it at anything except the lowest of settings, most PCs are going to chug horribly in any area with environmental density

    Poki was streaming episodes of Avatar: Last Airbender on her channel, which led to the ban

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Techno has some cool builds, but most of them really need end game legendaries to really shine (like frost builds). Blight rounds are beastly - all you need is some perks that give you free ammo reloads, a couple DPS boosts, and you can melt shit fast.

    The Expanse

    Again, for all those complaints, those come straight from the book itself. The book spent a bunch of time on Naomi and Filip. As a book reader I hated Filip as well. You can't blame them that much when they're mostly sticking to the plot of the books. The most major deviations has been...

    Btw, new treasure map is neat. It's basically Loporites make Las Vegas as the treasure dungeon lol During 1 run, we got the gamble chest. The map owner went all the way and 6 Cloth of Happiness was the reward (makes the new Hobbit outfit glamour). I won the roll and got all 6, but I gave...

    Interesting balance on show runners, though. Captain Marvel (poop) and Silicon Valley (good).

    He locks the blessing of light, but we're still immune to tempering during that whole bit

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Valid point. 1) Everyone with echo is shown to be immune from tempering. However, the power of the echo isn't limited to that (seeing the past/future, allowing soul transference, allowing communication with anything with a soul, etc) 2) This also applies to "artificial" echo, like Zenos or...

    They established in ShB that Hydealyn doesnt grant the echo, just takes advantage of it. The only thing specific to her is the Blessing of Light.

    There was them hinting they wanted to continue the story, but who knows what form that takes They could cheap out and go Farscape style with the comic book “season 5 and beyond” route

    New World

    New World continues to surprise me as a mmo that takes old mmo ideas, put them into action, then are too inexperienced to understand why most MMOs dumped those ideas. Resist gear is a perfect example: it sounds cool on paper, but in practice it’s just another grind for a niche armor set with...

    There was 7 rejoinings, then we got a bonus shard in the first, so 8. Graha is the only other person with the same number of shards as us, since he lived through the 8th rejoining Everyone else on the first would be 7 shards. That is why Emet makes that comment that people on the source are...

    Isn’t Ukalale or whatever hinted to be a WoL? No one that can see soul colors has seen him I think. I wouldn’t be shocked if he turns out to be an Azem fragment
