    Hawkeye

    The weird contrast thing they are doing where the entire world treats the Avengers era as basically the movies and Hawkeye is just some like war-scarred normal dude that hates all of it is pretty amusing.

    Arcane

    My mom texted me today asking if I'd heard of this and claims it's the best thing she's ever seen on Netflix. She's 74 lol. Riot execs must be having such massive coke parties right now.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    This is the setup I've landed on as optimal for work/games. Vertical monitor is pretty fucking nice to dump teams/slack/discord in to for text scrolling. Ultrawide is enough screen real-estate for terminals, text editors, etc. Top is for web portal bullshit/jira/confluence/twitch. Need to...

    Don't they already have a roster of a couple dozen of those.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Just be careful buying an ultrawide, the cheaper ones all using those VA panels and they absolutely suck dick. Terrible motion blur and ghosting problems on any kind of dark background.

    Cowboy Bebop

    This shit is pure pain. Entire thing feels like a fucking soap opera somehow? Visuals all look completely cheap on every set, almost like the Star Wars prequels in a way with their greenscreen everything? Completely soulless throughout. It's like they copied/lifted as much as they could...

    Ruined King: Riot Single Player Turn-Based RPG

    Yea the scope of Riot's influence is pretty wild. Their fake waifu kpop band hit like a billion views on youtube. They've got all the groundwork and fan investment in place that if their MMO and fighting game (probably a brawler/party game tbh) are even half way decent they are gonna be fucking...

    Last Epoch

    Do they have any kind of ETA for multiplayer or ladders etc? Game looks dope but I don't wanna burn myself out grinding the singplayer before the 'real' game is available.

    The Harder They Fall (2021)

    We've swung all the way back around the circle to 70s era Blacksploitation lol. I didn't actually hate this, but it's pretty ridiculous. It's in the same realm as stuff like Dolemite Is My Name or that bad thirteen chambers or whatever it was kung fu thing that rapper made a few years ago.

    The Riftbreaker

    Hrm I hadn't heard of that one. Maybe they meant this was their first "large" production just in terms of scope of the game. They didn't speak amazing english, but at that point in the night none of us really did heh.

    New World

    What the fuck is it about MMOs that no one can seem to get one right? Hell, no one can even seem to get one half right. Is it just massive technical issues with the persistent world and network/server architecture? Are MMOs not popular enough to command real dev/money investment? I find that...

    The Riftbreaker

    I got drunk with two of the devs that made this at PAX a couple years ago lol. Polish dudes that got their studio funded by a grant from the government under some art thing or another. Pretty chill dudes. Game is a ton of fun, but still has some flaws which isn't surprising given this is their...

    Path of Exile

    Assuming flicker will target and teleport you to the hydrosphere that has to just be cancer right? On any boss that moves even slightly the sphere is just constantly gonna be out of range and sending you off to the middle of nowhere. What the fuck do I know though, that's apparently what...

    Ruined King: Riot Single Player Turn-Based RPG

    Their MMO isn't even a secret, it's just official knowledge. Only question is the timeline really. 2023? 2025? Who knows.

    Path of Exile

    What strike skills even exist that get played that could use melee splash? Ain't no one running around out there playing double strike or anything like that. Lightning strike can't use it, flicker can and sometimes uses it but the hydrosphere interaction is irrelevant because you can't control...

    Ruined King: Riot Single Player Turn-Based RPG

    Battle Chasers had some flaws yea but it was still a blast. I'll probably give this a shot, largely just to have something chill I play and not pay infinite attention to.

    Path of Exile

    Adding nemesis to your map a bunch of times via rolling the map + sextant + infused zana mod etc. Usually with a couple layers of delirium orbs and whatever flavor scarabs you like. Unique watchstones or well rolled magic ones if you really wanna get in to it. It's just another way to mega...

    Every other animation studio in current year should commit sudoku in shame compared to this, holy fuck.

    Nice. I'm not super in to the pet so probably won't bother going all the way to 36, but the wings are sick this league.

    Path of Exile

    Oh I'd never participate in that garbage. It's more of a conceptual problem that I have as GGG seems to be unable or unwilling to learn anything from mistakes they've already made with league design.

    Path of Exile

    I've decided this league fucking sucks. There's a lot of good going on with the new tree and remade atlas etc, but scourge itself is a travesty. It's like Legion all over again only way worse? All your incentive is in raw mob quantity, with no consideration for the level/tier of content. It...

    Path of Exile

    Alright PoB warriors, anything obvious I'm missing here? I know my gear is pretty garbage still, but I'm stuck on INT requirements for a few key upgrades currently to get rid of the stupid Atziri shield which then frees up some other pieces for upgrade as well. Still need to get +1 helix...

    Investing General Discussion

    Yea it's at Fidelity, but I wasn't sure if there is some risk I'm not realizing having it all invested via one broker. Though I guess if Fidelity goes down we're all fucked anyway at this point. I doubt I'm investing it anything fancy, probably just some kind of boring ass ETF blend. And maybe...

    Alright bros where do I stash 70k in cash? I was gonna buy a house but for a variety of reasons that isn't happening for at least another year, and it's going to/already has been get demolished just sitting around liquid. Who do you all use for individual investment accounts? I've got a well...

    Path of Exile

    Time for our bi-weekly 1000+ comment harvest bitch fest thread: I'm so fucking sick of it. Delete harvest from the game, put a big fucking banner on the login screen with "IT'S NEVER COMING BACK STOP ASKING". Worst goddamn thing they ever did to this game.

    Path of Exile

    If you want just omega boss DPS it's probably generals cry berserker using like blade flurry or shield crush. Can also do it with lancing steel on a champion but that requires a fair bit more gear investment. The new generation of inquisitor CoC builds with winter orb get up there as well...

    Rimworld

    The sectoids are extremely vulnerable to getting meleed to death. They have giga piercing armor, which means it's very hard to shoot them to death, especially the bigger ones. Their blunt armor however is trash, and their melee DPS isn't much more than a normal human with fists. Getting in to a...

    MTG thread

    Depends how much time/effort you want to put in to it. If you want to get max value and time spent isn't a concern you'll want to list things on eBay yourself, or set up and sell via TCGplayer. Both of these options are hard though, as without being an established seller you're relatively...

    The very very top-end of energy blade is absolutely bonkers in terms of flat lightning damage, so I'd believe 300k average hit if they are battlemage.

    Path of Exile

    All the new uniques are just busted. So busted I'm not even sure why they made them? Like there are precisely 0 builds that won't use a mageblood or the quad annoint neck etc. Squire is just infinity DPS for anything mjolnir adjacent, or even just basic ass shaper weapons. Damage recoup chest is...
