The last console I played more than a handful of times was the PS3. I own a PS4, but my total hours on it are less than 50 and I haven't bothered with a PS5. I doubt I'll ever buy another console unless they develop some must-have feature. Unless your friends are sitting in your living room, I...

You can try and lay the entire series at the feet of SGA, but the grace he's been given by the refs really hasn't had a significant impact on the series. In fact, both teams have been getting their share of questionable calls. Anyone who is familiar with the NBA understands this and it's why I...

I'm glad this lameass shit got canceled. The video looks like a Dragon Age: Veilguard clone. If you go down the rabbit hole for the companions, they're all exactly what you'd expect in a 'modern' D&D game. Moving forward, I have almost zero hope that any studio is going to get execute a D&D...

I can't be the only one who spent a fortune playing this game. There was a cabinet at the 7-Eleven on the corner a couple blocks from my house. As a kid, I can remember spending entire Saturday's there playing Gunsmoke.

Games would have a lot more profit margin (or simply not cost as much as they do to develop) if they'd cut the bottom 20-30% of performers that exist in literally EVERY studio with more than several dozen people. But they'll never do that because it consists almost entirely of women, joggers...

I've had it on my GOG wishlist for a long time and have yet to see it go on sale. It's only $20 so I'm definitely being a cheapass. To repent, I'm going to buy the best version on July 15th and lose a month of my life playing a few of the amazing 3rd party campaigns.

This 'remaster' has been speculated to exist for over a year and I'm glad it's here because I never purchased it on Steam. I have the hard copy, but I haven't built a PC with a disc drive in nearly 10 years and I'd like to be able to easily install it even if it's not much of an upgrade over the...

The show doesn't run a full minute before they introduce a game with characters using they/them pronouns. Also, when I was a kid I was intrigued by British accents -- as an adult, I am repulsed by them. What a completely lost, cucked nation.

Yep. I was far, far more excited about the game before the most recent trailer. I'm still likely going to give it a try, but I think the trailer let some air out of the hype.

I care a lot less about combat than I do other systems and, most importantly, the narrative. The combat in The Witcher and Mass Effect was dogwater but both of those games were/are amazing. If they can nail character progression and writing, I can accept middling combat.

Fortunately, for you, your naivety got rewarded.

I wasn't expecting this IP, at all, but I am cautiously optimistic about this. Also, Owlcat is definitely a woke company -- they just haven't been as in-your-face as many others have been.

Since this is free, I fired it up with had zero expectations (and was a little skeptical since the install size was less than a gig), but wow...this game is extremely enjoyable. I haven't finished it yet, but I think I'm close and haven't wanted to put it down. This is a game you can complete...

Nothing and I mean nothing is going to save this game. Its failure is simply a question of when, not if.

That's crazy as hell. I've been subbed to Clownfish for years. I wonder if it was just a random Google search or he has visited FoH before. I have the Daggerheart PDF and it's gay as fuck.

I really enjoyed BL1 and 2. When BL3 released my best friend and I co-op'd the campaign for a couple days until our interest fizzled out and it just kinda faded away. I'm confident that we weren't too far from completing it, but the game was boring. In fact, I can't remember anything about it.

Out of curiosity I fired this up again again yesterday and it's still gay. Also, here's the balance adjustments coming in the near future. Notes: With great power there must also come great responsibility... and sometimes, a little bit of nerfing. Let's check out what's new in this heroic...

The things that some people dislike but others love is interesting. I've only played BG3 to completion, once, but I explored EVERY nook and cranny I could find because I rarely (if ever) re-play RPGs due to how much time I spend with them the first run. When developers say that their game takes...

Owlcat has had enough success over the last 5 years that they're no longer just a development studio; they're also a publisher with half a dozen irons in the fire. Last I read, they had 1 or 2 "smaller" projects in the works and 2 standard full-size games being developed in-house. I don't have a...

I forgot to post why I had originally come to the thread. S2 of Andor is some of the best SW content that has been filmed in the last 20 years. Probably longer. It has its issues, but it's very, very good.

I was interested in this but the trailer alone killed it for me.

Completely agree. I'm a HUGE sucker for period shows and a pirate-based period show is effectively heroin for me. I don't think you need to be a fan of either genre to enjoy the series.

Apart from the seniorita being a "wood" and the set design, this show has lost 99.95% of its appeal. "Ellie" is one of the most unlikable protagonists I've seen in a long time. Her ultra-punchable, downy face doesn't help either.

I haven't read the books, but I have a love/hate relationship with the show. There were A LOT of things I really enjoyed and looked forward to every episode but there were nearly as many things that annoyed me and felt poorly executed. The infuriating part is that I can't put my finger on a...

I genuinely don't know how I feel about this. Society, culture, language, and mannerisms on 'real' Earth are significantly different than what they were just 200 years ago. It's likely that such elements would be completely unrecognizable if their source was light years away and hundreds of...

This is the ending I got.

Midjourney and the other AI art tools are a godsend for bringing the DM's (and player's) vision to life. A lot of people argue that theater of the mind is the best way to play the game, but I couldn't disagree more. I prefer it when the DM/players are able to definitively show me what they have...

Despite having nearly 100 pre-written hardback adventures, I have never run a single one. Though a couple of the 3rd party campaigns are absolutely fantastic and significantly better than anything I could have ever come up with. That said, I have read many of them and mine them for ideas to add...

The official rules haven't influenced my games for 5+ years, but the symbolic destruction of what D&D was isn't just about the rules. D&D is an IP that I have a very deep love for and seeing it wither is extremely painful. Furthermore, I'm not just a player -- I'm also an avid collector, but I...

Both Chris Perkins and Jeremy Crawford are leaving WotC. Those two were really the last bastion that D&D had going for it and that isn't saying much, at all. The IP is going down in roaring flames and all they have left is turbo-woke, mentally-ill idiots like Makenzie De Armas and she doesn't...

Some of the fan-created modules/campaigns are getting finished up and several of them are nearly the same quality as the base game. Voice acting/animation aside. There are a couple that are extraordinarily massive endeavors that won't be finished for another 6+ months, but what's available now...

There isn't much known about this game, but what we do know is that the heart and soul of the Witcher III and Cyberpunk 2077 were created by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and Robert Murzynowski whom are heading up this project (they left CDPR in 2022). The concept is fantastic and we'll know a bit more...

I've played games with my keyboard in my lap for my entire life. I hate using it on the desk so much that if it was the only option I probably wouldn't use it at all.

I still play this a couple times a week, but I spend 98% of my time soloing. My character has existed since the game released and been max level forever, but I have yet to TR a single time. I almost wear it like a badge of honor because I routinely keep up with or even outperform people with...

I knew absolutely nothing about this game two days ago, but I have it installed and ready to give it a shot when it unlocks.

You're correct. There's no official post-20 content for 5e.

I really have no idea, but I was never able to get into RIFTS. I've primarily stuck to D&D. Though I also played a bit of Shadowrun, a little Vampire/Werewolf, a smidge of GURPS, and a handful of games with an old Marvel Heroes RPG that I can't even name. I'm really just a one trick pony when...

I don't keep up with this thread, but I wanted to pop in and say - That quote is mine, but it was framed as a question. I don't have any experience with this type of game and I was asking questions from a completely novice perspective. Edit - Just realized that the relevant part of this...

5.24 is technically backwards compatible, but it's a bit annoying. It's a lot like going from 3.0 to 3.5. The rules are largely the same, but there are pinch points that don't work well with each other. Largely, I like what they've done with many of the rules in 5.24, but 90% of the art I have...
