Really want to play this, but our core board gaming crew includes someone who has a personal flow-chart that determines if he will play a game and one aspect of it is that there has to be a definitive winner....which has ruled out other cooperative games like Pathfinder etc. Is there any way I...

With magic being 'off' this whole season I find myself really missing the complex finger tutting we saw extensively in season one especially for casting spells. Really only Julia has been doing any of it and nothing near as complex as what Quentin did in S1.

I will say the game has a nifty look and feel to it. I like how they have used the gaming grid to replicate some of the feel of the old linear party ranking while still making it a more visually active game. It's not really an Xcom or FFTactics sort of tactical combat simulator, but its also...

Christ I swear everyone who bought into alpha is borderline retarded.

The alpha for this came out this week and is also being shown at GDC. Canned 20min-ish chunk of content with premade characters but gives a general feel to the whole thing. I love me some Bards Tale from back in the day, but no way was I high enough of a supporter for alpha access, thus I'm...

Went to a local store today and yeah the initial mark downs aren't that high. Obviously they inventory skews towards the less popular stuff as they've likely had few if any new shipments lately, but the selection was still rather meager. I was actually trying to figure out what I was seeing...

Good episode again this week. I feel bad for poor Dean Fogg having to live through all those timelines... Then again he's a pretty terrible teacher

Ive been intentionally avoiding the thread out of fear of disappointment, but looking at those stream recordings it does seem to be coming along nicely. I was super pumped to see the Enchanter stuff and that really gets me thinking. The heyday of EQ was nearly 20 years ago now and despite...

So they seem to be going crazy with all the new races...

So how the fuck is it possible that Adult Swim hasn't ordered a 4th season yet?

Watched this whole thing. The first episode sets up what should be a very exciting dramatic series... and then it becomes a procedural for the next 5 episodes mixed with some arc character building craziness of the highest order. I mean I'm fine with flawed characters but these people are just...

My current theory: Spoilers only for info in the trailer

Yay renewed for another season!

I just realized who the faerie queen actrrss is...holy cow. They damn welw better renew this show.

Sadly this is not the last time this will occur. Finding companies to load up with debt and pillage has become a cottage industry for various segments of the financial 'industry' . It's almost the perfect trap, any sensible supplier to a company that gets raided by Bain Capital or it's...

Its painful watching these poor saps try and recreate these complex desserts . I laughed so hard

Jon Favreau to Executive Produce and Write Live-Action Star Wars Series | StarWars.com So Jon Favreau is going to be the executive producer for the long rumored Star Wars live action series for the new Disney 'netflix-like' digital platform.

Title: Untitled Star Wars/Jon Favreau Project Genre: Sci-Fi & Fantasy First aired: 2019-11-20 Overview: Plot under wraps

A good cleaning service can work miracles in a fraction of the time it would take many people to make things look barely passable. I suspect some combination of skill, industrial cancer causing solvents, and magic.

Wait... adopted kids are real?? (A buddy of mine growing up was the adopted kid in his family and his brother decided once to play the 'your parents didnt love you' card to try and get him riled up. Without missing a beat his mother chimed in with "Don't be absurd, do you realize how much...

Wait... what? How can I possibly be actively looking forward to Lost in Freaking Space?? Damn you Netflix and your billions of dollars on original content. Truly this is a new Golden Age of TV. Also there is no way that the Robot wasn't inspired by the Geth in Mass Effect

So.... I think I just had an emotional seizure of happiness.

So the sauce tastes like soy + vinegar + corn syrup. Its not too bad

Wha?? Well with the TV show dead I suppose they have even more of a blank check to do whatever they want.

Trump’s Tax Cuts in Hand, Companies Spend More on Themselves Than on Wages Surprise_level = 0 My own company has indicated that it will not use its tax savings for any new investment or worker raises. In asking around to friends and family no one I know is getting a higher salary or even a...

Make sure to check out Britannia, the SKY/Amazon co-produced series set in 43 AD and covering the Roman invasion of Celtic Britain. While the overall presentation is moderate at best, Ian McDiarmid as an aged pissed off king is worth it alone. (Full disclosure -- Emperor Palpatine is my...

Season 2 was much denser in terms of moving forward the plot. It is worth noting that the first 'book' doesn't end until halfway through season 2. As a result there are several big payoffs in the first part of the season

If the rumors are true and a Filoni-led series set after The Last Jedi showing the resurgence of the Resistance could easily change a whole heck of a lot of things for the better .

Can we have a non-asain MMORPG ever again? Did WildStar kill the western MMO genre?

The company was not in trouble before the leveraged buyout to take it private. It was losing market share to Amazon and WalMart but was still profitable. In fact they moved to issue a new IPO and take the company public in 2010 but shelved those plans in 2013 after the profits continued to...

The funny thing is that many people in the massive behemoth that is the financial services 'industry' see themselves as doing a universally positive good. Divesting a company of toxic assets, 'migrating' debt, leveraged buyouts -- all of these things bring in amazing short returns and that is...

Toys ‘R’ Us, Seeking Stability, May Close 200 More Stores This is a nice example of why the financial industry, and private equity firms in particular, are the root of pretty much all evil in the world. In 2005 some executives from a small group of private equity firms took Toys R Us private...

I loved the 'Archon' class from Rift which was very much all about support but probably went too far into the 'must have' category simply because it was ubiquitous and singular in nature. It would, however, be cool if Death Knights had a natural synergy with Shadow Priests and a synergy...

This is part of the reason why WoW is fundamentally permabroken. With only three actual 'roles', two of which are needed in very small numbers, there's far too much emphasis on DPS as a one-dimensional attribute. I've often thought there should be many more synergistic elements shared between...

I like that they cast Parker Posey as the new Dr. Smith so as to avoid the somewhat creepy pedo nature of the original.

A lot of things come back to the Father, Daughter and Son

Do not disrespect the Bedazzler!
