    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Chugging through this atm on console. First impression is that there is a lot missing, option wise, from the last game in terms of races and some of the class options. Mythic character shit gets out of control really fast, though. I have to playthoughts going side by side (one evil one good)...

    Ignoring them hammering the shit out of rich people bad, the only beef I have with the show is its too slow. If the dialog were more fleshed out or they were demonstrating things a bit more visually, it would be fine. The scenes with the Imperial insider guy, for example, were perfect. The...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    The end of that game was like 2 people shitty at madden playing each other.

    And that's game. Three passes on 2nd and 2 on the giants 5. AR wanted to be the hero and we get an entire half of fail to show for it..

    Rodgers is going to lose us this game with his arrogance, audibling out of runs into bombs constantly.

    New World

    XP was never the issue. Wife and I spent exactly two months playing this and power grinded all the way to 60, leveling crafting along the way, with zero issue. The problem is once you are there that the gear grind is super heinous and there just was not much to do. Granted, we are PvE people...

    Will Smith n Oscar Town

    Why bother? Scientology Cuck and movie about white man bad. I dislike them both. He has not been in a good movie since Ali, really.

    God of War: Ragnarok

    The valkyrie fights were rage inducing at max difficulty, for sure. I think I spent almost two full days beating the last two. The gear farm in the poison zone, whatever the fuck that one was called, was super fucking annoying too. Valk queen was the only fight I felt was unfair because she...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    9ers Offense is middle of the pack, which is actually fine given their defense. Lots of teams have scored more, even the Lions. SF know the Rams (and most of their own division frankly) but I expect them to struggle with the Fins, Bucs (assuming Brady is not washed up), and the couple of other...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Stafford has a history of tunnel vision on the one guy he likes going back to Megatron up through Golden Taint and beyond. Kupp is just the latest in that tradition. It is his biggest flaw as a QB. That said, no one can have success behind that O Line and the Defense seems way less on top of...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Not sure what to say. I mean, special teams cost them games last year and the Steelers game this year already. This is also the view of the Bengals own press. And as someone who has watched their team miss at least two Superbowl trips due to special teams miscues, I am skeptical of any team...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I have a hard time taking any team that loses to the Cowboys seriously as a contender. Its really as simple as that. Also, the Bengals Special Teams are really shitty and trust me as a Packer fan I know how badly that can bite a team in the ass.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Yeah Brady clearly is not the same QB anymore without Gronk as a safety blanket. He also got away with being old before now because his line used to be better. Rodgers is just having his usual bad year after two good years (seriously its a pattern with him) where he reverts and holds the ball...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Not consistently so, no. Both the Deadskins and Eagles put up nearly 30 on them. Their other games were against a beat up Chargers team and shutting out Matt Ryan, so hard to tell at this point. But more to the point, I don't think their main defensive scheme is ideal against a team like the...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I think the picture on the Eagles would have been clearer if they had not almost blown a couple big leads (Lions game being the most egregious example). I think they have a soft schedule (only one semi-tough road game against the Cowboys; Cowboys and Packers only really semi serious teams to...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    AFC is back to being a giant suckfest again. Bills are the only balanced team in the AFC, but make erratic choices in game. Chiefs are one Mahomes injury or solid opposing Defense away from turning into the Raiders, but until that happens they have to be the odds on favorite. Rest of the AFC...

    Board Games

    Crunchy is more specifically rules for rules sake, in some ways. A game can have simple rules but be very complex (Chess). Nemesis, especially with all the bells and whistles, has a lot going on in in, much of which may never directly impact the outcome of the game. The best comparison I...

    Board Games

    Very complex. Lots of mechanics and moving parts. Not good or bad, but a matter of taste if you like it or not. Think of a game like Monopoly as a sort of low to medium crunch game (axis and allies similar), while something like Gloomhaven or Twilight Imperium is very crunchy. Pipeline and...

    Nemesis is fun, but its very crunchy and very brutal. Back to the Future is simple fun and fast for a coop game. The Alien Nostromo game is a pretty solid coop game as well.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Biggest gimping here is the wombo combo of that rare lethal hack comboing off the rifle you get from the rednecks that just autohits everything in front of you. It does not appear that they nerfed that weapon at all and it just fucking melts everything in the game when paired with that Hack...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Is the QOL decent? Money is almost not relevant once you are past a certain point. I have turned down higher paying shit just because I am very comfortable where I am at. I have to imagine you are in a similar situation.

    Darth Bill needs to hang up his spurs, really. The amount of time it will take them to rebuild (without Brady giving them cap room to put more talent on the field) is going to be way too long. Dude has nothing to prove and is getting pretty old. I am not sure who you replace him with, but...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I also think of Eomer of the Briar as more of a main boss, since he is the end baddie of poison castle. I will take him over Godskin cheater though.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    They used the pussiest overland bear, though. Not one of the miniboss bears like that fucking prick in the bottom of the one cave in the south continent. Edit- NM Guess they did use that confined space miniboss bear.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    In Jimmy G's defense, he had zero practice time before this week and zero snaps before they put him in last week. Wilson has no excuse for how off target he was all night. The Broncos are going to beat out the Jets for the most overspending on QB by a franchise. That was one of the ugliest...

    This show is so fucking boring. It might be good, but its not Star Wars. Even shitty Starwars is generally never boring. Two episodes of nothing happening outside of the alley murder (which gave me hope for a darker take on SW) and I could not fucking stay awake. I am tapping out on this and...

    Clerks III

    I was partial to Mall Rats (I grew up in an era where that was a thing we did as teens) and Dogma. Chasing Amy is solid, but its not aged well. Red State is arguably his best movie. Everything else he has done has not aged well, mostly due to being so self indulgent.

    Wilson was the benefactor of friendly officiating that would toss the flag every time he threw deep and a ton of crowd noise making home advantage massive. He has neither of those in Denver. He also, until recently, had decent defenses and running games backing him up. Not saying he is not...

    As long as Fisk and Poindexter come along for the ride I'm down. It seems foolish to toss all of those shows away when they were specifically built to fit into the existing MCU. Ps And madam Gau that lady was awesome as a villain.

    The Last of Us

    Most of the writing for Part 1 (and almost all of the earlier Uncharted Games) was done by the woman Druckmann forced out. The Ellie Lesbian Dating simulator DLC was the first thing he wrote without that woman's input into it. Druckmann was literally taking his cues from Anita Sarkeesian...

    Also, quick addendum, we basically are at a point in history where the lines between corporation and governance are effectively blurred to the point of almost not existing. Social Media companies are openly collaborating with the government to control culture. Major media outlets coordinate...

    The people pushing this shit do not care about making money. It is allowed for the same reason this shit plagues companies. These fuckers invade companies (usually through HR departments) and start making sure that only likeminded people get hired in key positions. Before you know it, you are...

    Look at the recent LOTR thing on Amazon. Formula is always the same. Hire shitty black actress in a clearly white role, the less they are actually in the show the better because you can deflect by saying "well Queen Wakanda is barely in the show/Its Obi Wan's show/random other bullshit...
