Still really enjoying this game as it doesn't require your constant undivided attention. Tried getting some pals who love Slay the Spire interested, but they saw the 'conversation' fight and we're immediately turned off.

Hah the final episode of DC Daily (aka the reason why we know DC Universe is not long for this Earth) featured Mr. Nobody killing it off in bumpers at the start and end of the extra long episode. Weird that they are still claiming DC Universe is 'fine'

It is very cool that they filmed this while the original Broadway cast was intact. It makes the content accessible to people who would not otherwise get a chance to experience it. PBS used to do this sort of thing with Great Performances, but not to this extent.

Finally got a chance to see this now that its on Disney+ (fuck you ticket lottery while the original cast was still around) I can certainly see why they moved the release up, its quite timely.

You mean Jesk...

Just rewatched Korra and if anything I'm even more eager to see a third series. There is a lot that can be done with the world they've built.

We make our own pizza dough at least once a week, not always for pizza. Before the heat really kicked in and we still had 60 degree days we were going wild with pizza though. Carbs cheese and salty meats are great comfort food.

Stress baking = all the people who went crazy with buying up flour and started learning to bake during the COVIDs...also a precursor to stress eating.

https://www.playcrucible.com/en-us/news/articles/developer-update-crucible-beta They are un-releasing this back to Beta. Not totally unprecedented but a good idea considering how bad it is.

Splurged on a internal compression ice cream machine a few weeks back and have been experimenting with different ice creams ever since. Let me just say that if you are loathe to do stress baking during the heat of the summer stress ice cream making is a damn fine substitute. At its most basic...

Do not besmirch the legacy of Emperor Palpatine with such talk. With RoS the whole of Star Wars really becomes not the story of Skywalker but the ascension and collapse of Darth Sidious.

Sooooo much incest

I will say that Darren Criss does NOT sound like Darren Criss in this. I'm actually quite optimistic.

First THREE episodes of season 2 are now up on DCUniverse and HBO Max

Hah! By total coincidence I happened to rewatch Winter Soldier the other day so this was fun. I have the impression that the good guys are totally fucked. Also -- is Fitz just not in this season at all??

It kills me that Apple is the one to finally take on the task, but really not many people have the sort of $$ and stamina to do it.

Title: Foundation Genre: Drama, Sci-Fi & Fantasy First aired: 2020-12-31 Creator: David S. Goyer Cast: Lee Pace, Jared Harris, Lou Llobell, Leah Harvey, Laura Birn, Terrence Mann, Cassian Bilton Overview: The thousand year saga of The Foundation, a band of exiles who discover that...

Good for them. I hold no ill will towards someone who managed to parlay gaming in front of an extremely jaded 'public' into a multimillion career.

Personally I just really have always found MindFlayers and Psionics to be one of the more creative aspects of D&D world building. This is why Baldurs Gate 3 has me rather excited.

I would very much like to see post ROTJ or even post TROS...something that carries the story forward in a meaningful way.

I always thought it was interesting to explore the rational viability of the 'bad guy' races through different rationales for behavior that didn't question their role as being 'evil'. The mantid in World of Warcraft were a good example of this -- still very much evil but for reasons that had...

It has a certain Viva Pinata flair...

https://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/diversity-and-dnd Looks like Orcs and Drow are getting some edits to make them a bit more morally ambiguous versus generic chaotic evil scenery chewers. Sort of like what we saw with the Klingons in Star Trek over the years. Interesting that they are...

I never finished it, dunno why... I suspect it will be a $20 title. I think Infamous : First Light was at that price point. (Still annoyed that they haven't made a new Infamous game... Ghosts of Tsushima holds no interest for me)

I'm almost willing to forgive their lack of B-Wings. Almost

People seem to regard the release date for both PS5 and XBX as major state secrets...yet the supply chain to get that shit into retail or even warehouse-based channels is non trivial. How long does it take to get shipments across the Pacific by boat? Isnt it a few months when you include...

I very much doubt this will be the last delay, but now they will be colliding with the launch window of the new consoles and so could end up in a situation where they would be reasonably expected to have the PS5 / XBX version available on release day.

This is nothing like Doom Patrol. Watchmen and Sesame Street have more in common than Doom Patrol and Stargirl

The jock chick:

I'm guessing since Pat found the lantern that he will re-hide it and that will keep the membership at the four we have now for the time being. [/Spoiler]

I had a great time with the demo and the Early Access is $12.74... I can't pass that up.

This is very very good. I'm rapidly becoming a fan of whatever Klei does.

This really has demonstrated that demos are an amazing marketing tool. Im checking out and wishlisting a bunch of stuff that I would never have touched until/unless I saw a post on here about it.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister is a VERY Baldur's Gate type game implementing D&D 5e rules. The character art is a bit weak, but the overall look and feel of the thing is quite impressive.

Wingspan has a computer-version that has a demo out on Steam right now as part of their Summer Festival. The computer version seems super faithful to the game.

The demos on the Summer Festival are pretty amazing. They worked with a LOT of indy developers to take the shit they would have shown off at conventions and made them into demos to showcase at this thing. Already tried the Wingspan demo (very cool) and was in the process of downloading Iron...

https://online.paxsite.com/ PAX has punted on PAX West this year and has created a free-to-all online variant instead. Firesofheaven.org should host an 'old persons guide to gaming' panel discussion.

Was dicking around and died to trash. No big deal right? NOPE! All my 'Lifebound' gear got nuked and I was left naked. Had to go back to town and 'gamble' on gear just to have something to wear and be able to kills things again. I guess I need to make sure to keep a backup piece of non...
