    Health Problems

    An older guy I knew once told me "youth is wasted on the young". A couple years later he died of cancer and I started to understand what he meant. Fast forward about 15 years and I really understand what he meant. My latest health problem: Cold sweats. I'm tired all the time and the cold sweats...

    Health Problems

    I've gone through this before. What do you mean by "had a discectomy on in 17 is back 26th"? You had a discectomy in 2017? What's 26? Which level is it on, lumbar/thoracic/cervical? I'm guessing lumbar if sitting in chairs is an issue with sciatica. Fusion is very likely going to be needed...

    What are you playing?

    What a ridiculous monstrosity. It looks like the Genesis is on life support. Nope, SNES never had add-ons like this. They kept mining more and more power out of the base system. It's amazing the visual difference between stuff like FF4 in 1991 versus Chrono Trigger and Treasure Hunter G in...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Not in FFV! I wish FFVI had superbosses. The closest thing is Siegfried in the Coliseum. FFVI Advance at least adds a few postgame bosses but none are what I'd consider "super". The Kaiser Dragon is the last and biggest boss, and apparently it was a cut boss from the original FFVI so that's...

    Lords of the Fallen

    I just recently played Mortal Shell and it was a pretty sub-par Souls. Scratched an itch though and was short enough to not really be any sacrifice to play. I can tolerate a lot of sub-par when it comes to this genre. As for LOTF, probably just wait for the new one since apparently there's no...

    Playstation 5

    You should be able to port anything on PS4 onto PS5. With reduced loading times to boot. PS3 games are stuck on that system, but are also account-bound so if you got another PS3 and signed in they should be available for download (unless they changed it) As for the rest yeah they're probably...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Yeah, I assumed it was a debatable topic and that the paintings didn't definitively depict dinosaurs, given how worn-down most cave paintings of advanced age are. Dinosaur-like creatures appearing in worn-down paintings is believable enough, though they could have been interim species of things...

    Playstation 5

    I bet PS5 is going to get discounted even more this holiday season, wouldn't be surprised to see it for $350 at some retailers. Price is gonna come down a lot in advance of the PS5 Pro if it's getting dropped on us next year. Personally I think the base PS5 is so powerful that we don't even...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Thought the same thing right after I typed it LOL I bet this'll end up turning into a rare day one buy for me. Is the original, uh, Lords of the Fallen (LOTF Zero?) worth checking out before that?

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Interesting post, but remember, as @Frenzic learned recently everyone on here makes six to seven figures and scoffs at such minor amounts as making $7k in a month from playing.

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah, power gaming can kinda rob you of some enjoyment. I tend to do it more with replays, or when I just want to knock something out quick. It is fun to completely break Bloodborne with a gun build after having trouble with it in the past.

    Lords of the Fallen

    Yeah but this is like... bro. If you click to a random point in the video showing gameplay and don't know what it is, you'd think they announced a Bloodborne 2.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    My unofficial list of countries with the most likelihood of having super-advanced tech beyond what we have that no one knows about: 3. Russia 2. China 1. Israel Russia I'm sure has better stuff than we're aware of, by a likely mild margin, because why show their hand? "Super-advanced", though...

    @Tide27 He said NES bruv Yeah for real. Not having a family helps a lot with having time to check out so many things I missed when I was younger, but I'd trade one for the other easily if I could go back and do it over again. Crystalis holds up from everything I've heard. There's a GBC...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    What do you think about the theories that some dinosaurs stuck around WAY longer than the rest of them? I heard there's early human artwork showing dinosaurs, which would seem to be impossible. If modern humans have been around for 200k years, then maybe just maybe the last few dinosaurs existed...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    The thing about Bigfoot is that there are HUUUUGE areas that people barely even go into. The U.S. has a few, central Australia, some of Siberia, central Asia, north Africa all have large areas with just like...nothing in them human-wise. The champ is no doubt Canada though. Massive swathes of...

    Lords of the Fallen

    So this is basically Bloodborne + Souls 2. Looks like an actual next-gen (current now) Souls game though and we haven't really gotten one of those that wasn't a remake or port. Probably gonna be a must-play. I am wondering how Fromsoft isn't suing everybody at this point though...

    What are you playing?

    Looking at a few screenshots, they look like Fire Emblem + traditional RPG. Not sure if that's correct I'm convinced that when it came to RPGs at least, Sega Genesis had way less than SNES did, but what it did have punched above their weight for sure.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Nope, just a lot of Youtube clickbait pretending there was. AFAIK, haven't really checked lately. A lot of people thought the DLC would be out by the end of this year, or on the anniversary early next year, but now I'm hearing some "Q4 2024" stuff. I really doubt that and Fromsoft keeps things...

    What are you playing?

    Oh man, as a kid I always heard about Shining Force and Phantasy Star being things I'd like, but I didn't have a Genesis. Eventually did get one years out of era and played Phantasy Star 4 which was incredible, then the first three (had to emulate the first game of course). Never got around to...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Except the NWO/Power Structure doesn't NEED to "play their last card". And if they did, it wouldn't be this, it'd be the "climate emergency". These people on Reddit are talking like the Power Structure is on the ropes right now or something. No, they're doing exceedingly well, probably than...

    This month I finally finished Ghost of Tsushima, then blasted through Mortal Shell. The world's shortest Souls game. Attempt #6 or so to get into Uncharted 4 fell flat and I put it down again. Kind of funny how I powered through Uncharted 1-3 in like a couple weeks back in 2015, just loved the...

    Mortal Shell - Soulslike RPG

    Finished this, actually a really good game once you get sorted out with a better weapon and some powerups and can progress. It's super short though (8 hrs) and probably only worth like $10. It's impressive how pretty it looks for an indy game. Like it's right up there with Elden Ring sometimes...

    What are you playing?

    If you're only gonna play one, play AC4. It's pretty awesome. If you've got room for 2-3, play AC2 and its sequels. The Ezio trilogy really is a memorable experience and now there's a remaster so it won't look awful by modern standards. Brotherhood is a great game and direct sequel to AC2...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    FF4 kinda had the "sealed weapons" thing in the final dungeon, bunch of optional bosses in there guarding ultimate weapons for Cecil, Edge, and Kain + Ribbons (BIS helm for Rydia and Rosa I think). I really like the sealed weapons as a concept and wish more games did that. 4x job points + the...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Well this didn't happen, was like a $2000 buy-in to get the whole series, plus the time investment, plus the antiquated graphics. I actually did get ahold of AC5 and give that a shot (to work backwards) and couldn't get into the game at all, it was just so clunky. Looked nice at least. Too bad...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    It's possible Mangosteen fumes mixed with something they weren't supposed to and caused a gas explosion, which was one of the many theories. TBH that sounds as plausible as anything else for how it disappeared. Normally I'd just assume the plane crashed in such a way that the debris couldn't be...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    If I can interrupt you guys and your parade of gayness, there's a lot of interesting stuff on MH370 Reddit about a company that I've never heard of before today: Possibly owned by Jacob Rothschild through a front and funded by Blackstone Corp, does cutting-edge semi-conductor R&D and chip...

    Dredd 2 (2027 for Sure This Time!)

    Alright, so Dredd was released too close after The Raid for it to have been a "remake". I thought The Raid was 2010 for some reason. Still, a 2011 release is enough time to emulate it a bit during Dredd's production. Either that or @Kaines is right that it was an idea someone had seen in...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Taking pictures of faraway things at night is pretty goddamn hard (especially with digital cameras), always has been. It's only with the latest phone I've gotten (2023 model) that I've been able to take actual decent night sky pictures due to the long-exposure functions, and I'm still not sure...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Couple interesting things about this MH370 orb video: 1) It was actually posted online very shortly after the plane first disappeared. Not sure if it was taken down or just had no traction, but I think it was reposted recently and that's why it's suddenly getting attention. It's an old video...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Yeah those mostly look like satellites. Though a couple at about 3:05 on the right are flying a little weirdly and are much closer to Earth than everything else. I think most of what people think are UFOs are probably satellites, but that doesn't mean there aren't UFOs as well. If anything...

    Dredd 2 (2027 for Sure This Time!)

    Dredd 2012 is such a total remake of The Raid. Villain controls a building, locks law enforcement in, starts movie by brutally killing 3 tenants to make an example of them, tells the building on the intercom what's up, everyone clears out while her minions search every floor for the cops. Also...

    Dredd 2 (2027 for Sure This Time!)

    Yeah I was referring more to how trans folks are regarded as retroactively always their new gender, so if Page was always a guy, then did Olivia Thirlby have lesbian sex or was it straight, as defined by the woke folx? ...ah who knows. Wait is that actually Olivia Thirlby? I had no idea she...
