    Really enjoyed a 5 player session of the new Mansions of Madness 2nd Ed. last weekend. I really didn't like this game when we played the original some time ago and it was in the 'never play again' closet at my friend's house. We'll be playing this much more. Really like the app, randomizes...

    Let’s be careful about this “SETI” signal | Franck Marchis Blog The signal was first detected in May 2015 and has not repeated since. Unfortunately, although international protocols call for alerting the astronomical community to the detection of a mysterious signal, the observers chose not to...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Yeah, that's pretty late, should have been a flag. Though looks a little worse because it's in slow motion. Not dirty though, that's a legal hit on a QB, Steelers have been trying for years to get some form of horse collar protection in the pocket. Edit: Eh, at first glance thought he was...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I'm not sure they actually even showed the hit. It was on the edge of the screen during a pass and then they never showed a replay, reportedly because it is a gruesome injury (broken leg above the ankle). Looked like pocked closed and someone jumped up to try and tackle him is all.

    No Man's Sky

    11 hours played and 3 weeks after release Steam refunded me. Per Reddit it looks like many are able to get refunds well outside the eligible window (2 hours/2 weeks). Will add it to the collection if it's got a nice discount in the fall or spring sales.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    A lot would have to go wrong for the Chargers or Raiders for either one to end up in San Antonio at this point.

    Can't recommend enough the fantasy flight card holders for any of your remotely heavily played games. Can't imagine what my BSG cards would look like dozens of games in.

    My favorite quick games are Art of War. And BANG! Picked videos at random, so they're probably the worst representative of those games ever, but the games are good and easy. If you want people to hate each other, get Coup.

    They've managed to establish contact with STEREO-B after 22 months. NASA Reestablishes Contact With STEREO-B Downlink is right now. Should be more news later about the health of the spacecraft.

    Marvel Universe Stuff

    Yeah, kinda strange. We'll see. Big fan, odd casting if it ends up being true. Unrelated, Emergency Awesome seems to think that Captain Marvel might take the place of Adam Warlock, have her origin tied to the soul gem, etc. I don't completely hate that idea.

    I got 10 or so hours in, upgraded my ship once, and think gaming ADD has set in with Madden out and other stuff going on. Will tinker with it on occasion I think, not as much as I thought I would (like the way I play 2-3 Rocket League games a night).

    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    Wife used to bring this up, really wanted to see it remade before the voice cast started dying. RIP King Haggard (Christopher Lee).

    I don't really see an option for 21:9, other than being able to set the resolution to that and the game stretching the UI out. Text is all around blurry too. Hopefully we get some QOL adjustments from a patch at some point.

    Maybe time for a break. Went to the comic shop Tuesday night, put a stack of a dozen or so new books in my box for new comic day... come the next day and they didn't make it to my box. Equal parts want to just shut down my box and say fuck it, and also don't care about anything I was buying...

    90 minutes from our first glimpse of the game on PC. Fully expecting a bad port w/ no ultrawide support, which Sean will say is amazing and he is overwhelmed how many are playing when asked pointed questions about any problems.

    Watchable at worst, pretty good in chunks. Really liked the cast. Really disjointed in parts after all the re-editing, like the opening scenes with Harley and Deadshot that seemed so out of place.

    SeaFall sounds neat, though my group isn't really big on competitive games. Trying to see who among us wants to buy Mansions of Madness 2E. I was actually the big detractor of the original, lol. We're still on like June of our Pandemic Legacy play-through that started in January.

    Had a bit of a ride w/ this game, completely pessimistic then very interested w/ the first shots of live non-staged 'retail' gameplay, but really down on it after reading things like 'ships are all cosmetic' and really think most were underrating the persistence of really anything in the game...

    I think they're already beyond 3D, they have niche uses, it remains to be seen if they can get past that. PSVR will probably be reasonably successful at the very least. Unrelated: Valve is opening up its Vive VR trackers to custom hardware
