Some people should not be allowed to use social media unsupervised. She just fucked over the rest of the cast / crew. Well unless the back-backlash results in the show being picked up by some right leaning entertainment network. What IS a right leaning entertainment network?

Especially when you bought your stuff from them... and the other half you actually stole from a book which stole it from a Japanese movie...

PUBG filing a copyright claim against Epic seems like a move of desperation... not to mention its never a good idea to piss off your business partner.

I wish prequel directors, of any established series, would stop trying to come in and explain everything we knew about a character's backstory in a single narrative. Especially if it all happens during a single adventure that spans a couple days.

Playing through again and Dark Conner is a beast. Also,either I'm getting better at them or certain choices result in much easier / fewer QT events I think. The dark side is definitely more seductive. I think there are a few plot holes that crop up depending on your choices. There were were...

The animated movie was so bad that it poisoned the property, likely forever :(

Have they made the $4billion back in Box Office profit? No. This is not a problem. The big money for Star Wars has always been the licensing with its associated upfront payment and share of the proceeds. Their cut from the merchandise sold since Force Awakens has easily been worth the price...

Renewal aside, can we discuss just how badass Drummer is? Because she is. I love that Cara Gee manages to infuse every moment of her performance with pure raw anger. Even when Drummer is calm she is angry as fuck and it shows.

I finished it tonight. I had no intention of doing so, but I found I just could not put it down. I'm curious to see how much of the story is a genuine choice and how much is phantom choice but locked into the same basic rail. It certainly felt like it could have been much much different.

I think its safe to say that Battlefield is to WW2 what Dungeons and Dragons is to the middle ages. Both are examples of pure fantasy with a loose anchor to a period setting.

Ahh yes okay right. Nasty but pretty much what I expected. ... (final scene) WHAT THE FUCK?!?

New Overwatch LEGO Line Announced, Coming Soon I mean I suppose we shouldn't be too shocked at this point.

Well this was a terrible adaptation of an amazing and amazingly relevant story. I have no idea how you manage to fuck something up this bad, but they did.

All praise Bezos!

Detroit: Become Human comes out this week. I actually was showing the demo to some friends after movie night on Saturday and they actually were shocked that it was a game. One, who is very much not a gamer, said he wanted to come over and watch me play it while he ate popcorn. (I have the PS4...

TMZ reporting that a director has been selected and the synopsis is "Tensions between the local farmers and a tribe of Sand People — headed by a ruthless war chief — eventually brings Obi outta hiding … and into Jedi kickass mode. " So this would appear to be a western: Retired lawman who sees...

Read the preview for the 'Before the Storm' novel that Christie Golden wrote as a prequel for BfA... I don't see how anyone can look at this and think that the 'War' is simply between two ideologies that are incompatible and otherwise 'grey'. This pretty clearly paints a picture of the Horde...

Given the modern expectation for immediately-available fast travel and means to synch up with friends at a moment's notice can you still create a world that has an epic scale / true sense of place to it? EQ and many subsequent games have suffered from the 'rush to max level' which then turns...

As I said before it was genius to put the end of each 'book' in the middle of the seasons so that you maximize the engagement of the audience by having season premiere, book climax, start of new book, and season finale during every season.

Well that's excessive... a good way to bleed some cash out of the economy though

I did ship combat a couple times but then realized it was just easier to full speed ahead and board them where my guys quickly beat the crap out of the opposing team. Especially since you get your benchwarmers to participate as NPCs As others have noticed I realized that starting about when I...

First season was based on a story written by Kris Straub who is a webcomic guy but perhaps better known from more recent Acquisitions Incorporated stuff on Penny Arcade where he is K'Thriss Drow'b

The plotline in Deadfire is a lot more coherent than the POE1 plot. I mean I enjoyed POE1, but without the DLC expansions the main storyline is kinda crap. The first game is just a mystery box worthy of JJ Abrams where you follow a breadcrumb trail and then at the end some off the wall...

Saw this launched and was intrigued...but then saw no magic system :( I know Conan is traditionally a very low magic world and the original MMO probably had way too much magic for the setting, but I really can't get into it if its just Spartacus with Snakes.

What else would one use? I suppose Unity based on having seen a few that use it. I am a bit surprised that no one had really opened up a major engine with the various hooks necessary to support various MMO-type functions like gear / inventory / progression etc.

Quite true. A-listers should also take a lesson from Master Reynolds on the proper application of marketing.

People in PR and media management should be building a case file of this stuff for the next time Hollywoo-D-list-Celebrity-#5 balks at having to do a press junket

Blizzard has done a good job since WoD of remembering that Draenei exist, heck Valen was even a core part of the Legion plot. The Gilneans have also been embraced mostly due to them wanting to showcase their CGI fur in cutscenes. The seem to have forgotten about the Pandaren though. Other...

I've been playing with level scaling and things were fairly challenging at the start, but after level 12 or so things get really quite easy. I think more than anything else it's the survivability boost you get around that time which means you aren't beholden to manually targeted defense and...

I'm far enough now that I feel comfortable in saying

There are definitely some 'WTF??' items for sale at various merchants. Its like some tanned person standing at their open air stall selling potable water, hard tack, salted pork, cannon shot and The One Ring.

It seems sanity has returned and they will be taking racials and activated trinkets off the GCD in the next Beta Patch.

I actually don't mind using the default AI for many of the battles, especially trash battles. It is, however, super annoying how the wizards love to drop fireballs on the front line melee group. Well that and the relatively short range of things means people always end up clumped as hell...

We are at the juncture where it's put-up-or-shut-up time for streaming services to put a nail in the coffin of live broadcast. No one wants to watch scripted drama live anymore, they just don't. Broadcast networks still have news and sports within their wheelhouse owing to the immediacy...

The true measure of the quality of this show is the sheer number of times I yell "DAAAMN Bitch!" St the screen. For the record we are averaging 5-6 per episode this season

I actually restarted (I wasn't far along) to undo some of my multiclass choices and also because I felt the urge to take full advantage of the Critical Role voice DLC by making a Scanlan-appropriate main character.

There is a dominoes near me that is a very independent franchise which, apparently, is still using the old old OLD recipe / ingredient sourcing from back in the 90s. Someone brought Dominoes to a gathering and we all gave them a caustic glare until we tried a slice and it was, astonishingly...

I managed to player PoE without ever encountering Pallegina (had no idea she existed until I saw some previews for this game) so I wonder if she will show up for me or not. Then again I'm also curious as to what happens if your Eder or Aloth were dead...who do you get as an early companion in POE2?

I'm sticking to the main companions as their stories tend to be pretty interesting,plus who could ever turn down the lovablr country bumpkin Eder?!? I decided to multiclass everyone so far which makes for a quite interesting mix of abilities. It's a good thing I did this for my main especially...

Holy cow. I thought the original was very cool, but nearly every aspect of the game system has been improved. Wandering overland is much more sensible and adventure focused without being just trapsing around a map in stealth mode, the combat abilities / resting system makes more cohesive...
