So Bloodtinge is mainly for gun damage and Arcane is mainly for....? When I first played it and saw that stat, I thought the game had spells. It has some spell-like items but that can't be the only benefit. Oh yeah, and Tonitrus I presume gets Arcane benefit when enchanted. I remember loading...

Aerith, Tifa, and Jessie can't ALL ride Cloud.

Martyr Logarius is one of the few bosses that I remember giving me serious grief the 3 or so times I played this game. At least he's skippable, not that anyone should. The other fight that gave me a lot of trouble was Rom the Vacuous Spider. There were a couple more tough fights in the chalice...

Just beat the game after 3 more hours of banging my head against it. One of the final missions, either Nocturne or Last Caress, kept glitching up where nothing would work and I'd have to reload an earlier save. Started that mission over four or five times. By the time I got to the very last...

This game is a glitched mess. So many crashes, so many warping mobs, disembodied guns, etc. I was bearing with it because the setting really is astoundingly cool (I love Japantown, and the industrial park at night felt like the Midgar Upper Plate that I wish we'd gotten more of in FF7R). But...

I need someone to play couch co-op with at all. All of my friends have become COVID recluses who don't want to go to anyone's houses or vice versa. Then again I also live in one of those northern utopias where people dutifully pass in like an eight-foot semicircle around you on the sidewalk, so...

Late to this thread. If anyone is still needing advice on mobile games, is an RPG-thusiast, and wants to play some things that don't really exist on non-phone systems, I recommend: -Final Fantasy Dimensions: The first one, don't know about any spinoffs. This is a high-quality FF even though...

Just ordered the survival food crate I linked above, will report back in a few weeks when it gets here on whether or not it's worth it. On paper it definitely looks worth it, we'll see.

I don't mind games with slow starts. I used to. Took me years to get into Dragon Quest VII, which has several hours of game/story before you even get to fight any battles. Now, though, I'm okay with that kind of thing. Looking forward to playing as the hawt blue-haired girl. Do you play as her...

EQ a couple times a week. Other than that, hoo boy. I'm accumulating quite a backlog of things I want to check out at this point. I just finished a Platinum Crusade of sorts where I went back and platinumed God of War 1, 2, 3, Chains of Olympus HD, Ghost of Sparta HD, and Ascension. Then I went...

That could work, I'll look into it. Squeezing 7+8 in before 9 should be doable timewise, going to give it a shot.

Played about half of this when it came out, gonna swing around and do the rest this week. Like others have said it gets pretty repetitive and easy so I'm going to speed through the rest just to knock it off the list. It's a pretty fun game and on PS5 there aren't a ton of choices yet for new...

It's funny how the easiest world (World 2) is the one with the hardest bosses. Sort of. DG is easy once you know the puzzle, and Armor Spider is only difficult for beginners. Flamelurker however gave me the most trouble of any boss even on the latest run. Edit: Also, World 4 and 5 are the...

I just grabbed Ys 8 on PSN, it's on a really good sale. Unfortunately for Ys 7 I'll need to jump through some hoops to play it (either find a PSP or get a PSP emulator). Wish it had a console port like all of the others.

https://products.4patriots.com/food/4week/good-for-25-years Anyone have any experience with this company? Looks like a pretty good value. Problem is, it looks too good. I might get one and let everyone know how it is if no one knows.

Yeah, he did a lot of things. I'm just spotlighting The Hateful Eight because it has other Thing inspirations behind it as well and is very worth seeing for Thing fans.

Too late. Thanks for getting me swatted by the FBI!

I'm still on Season 2 so far, great show. Is it bad that I think that the daughter and the rival (Peyton List) are both really hot, especially when they face off, even though I'm like 15 years older than they are? And is it bad that I'm hoping that eventually they'll put aside their differences...

So with Ys IX on the way in a few weeks I was thinking about picking it up at launch. Have a few questions about the other Ys games in the meantime. -I've played Ys 6 and the remakes of Ys 1-3. Someday I'd like to go back and emulate the first five in their original, super-hard (at least in 3's...

The music really is good, between Morricone and Carpenter. Morricone also did the score for The Hateful Eight, which definitely has a lot of The Thing inspiration and is worth seeing.

My vote for the next thread: Original Terminator (plus discussion of any other Terminators, but especially the first).

Gotta say this burst of discussion about this movie was unexpected and cool.

People aren't ranking their lists? You gotta rank your lists. #1 - The Thing (1982) #2 - Terminator (1984) #3 - Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1977) #4 - Big Trouble in Little China #5 - Aliens #6 - Fight Club #7 - Terminator 2 #8 - John Wick #9 - Predator #10 - Gladiator HMs: Fast and...

Yeah, I don't consider any of the comics to be canon. I picked up the Thing video game for OG Xbox (there's also a PS2 version) for like $10 at a flea market a while back. Haven't played it yet because it requires digging the OG Xbox out of storage. It's also a sequel. I'll need to be in the...

There was an infected dog un-accounted for? Pretty sure earlier in the movie they mentioned that they'd put down all of the remaining dogs that were exposed, and presumably torched them. We don't see it because we don't need to see that, but it's mentioned. I think.

The speculation about Childs (and the ending in general) is the main reason I still talk about the movie with people decades later. I love that it doesn't have a happy or neat conclusion where everyone turns out fine. Personally I'm 50/50 on Childs' identity at the end of the movie. The breath...

Checking that out. I see right at the start that they've got Childs penned as a Thing. If there was any time where he got switched, it was while he was guarding that door. There's a decent book of short stories inspired by Who Goes There, available on Amazon: Amazon.com: Short Things: Tales...

Oh boy, Carpenter's The Thing is my favorite movie of all time. It doesn't even have competition, though the original Terminator, Big Trouble in Little China (also from Carpenter), and Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1977 version) are the closest things to being competition for me. That's my...

I thought Man of Steel was pretty good for what it was. Liked the darker tone of things like that and the Nolan Batmans compared to what Marvel was doing. My main beef with the DCU is that they didn't continue along that vein with the other movies. There didn't seem to be any kind of schedule or...

I was actually planning on resuming my chanter on Aradune for Luclin because AE groups would be fun and catching up would be a snap. Well...nevermind, I guess. Things like this should be handled on a case-by-case basis. I could see situations where AEing is actually considered zone disruption...

Sketch approximation of Skwishy IRL:

I should check out Shazam. I've seen everything else (except BoP) and didn't think I was missing anything. If people are ranking it at #1 or #2 for DC movies then I'll definitely give it a look.

I've got a question for the musically-inclined here. I've been wanting to get a real music keyboard since I was a kid playing on a mini-casio. It just sorta left my mind for a long time until recently when I was taking a look at some Masterclass videos on keyboard-playing and the urge struck...

Since PoG is getting discussed here...anyone remember what the deal is with abstruse phantasm? I've looked for it in both static and instanced PoG, cleared the zone, everything.

We've got the finest toxic harassers here, don't we folks!

Yeah, after I processed the grief today I found myself pissed-off at the way WWE held him hostage for so long. It seemed like he was just getting started in AEW and I couldn't wait to see him finally reach his potential. What an awful day.

Been seeing ads for this everywhere, it's playable on PS5, and Nova is pretty hot. Considering giving it a go. Like the look of the Witch class. Only problem is I've got a lot to do in EQ and I've still got LOTRO and FF14 to get into at some point when EQ dies down. Adding another MMO is...

The only time I like "hero immediately loses all of their powers" as a trope is when some video games do it. Your Metroid Primes, your God of Wars. You get to play an intro area with most of your powers, to see what you've got to look forward to, and then the game lets you go out and collect all...

Look at these fucking idiots! Literally the only true words in either tweet are "in Kenosha"
