Yeah, I finally got around to this one a few days ago. Really enjoying it. Earlier in the thread I shit on RPGs with a ton of story, but this one is very engaging. Act two is insanely long. Figured after act one, the whole thing would be like 20ish hours, but it's looking like act two alone is a...

Is this a biopic?

Reminds me of Walking Dead. I don't know how people lasted as long watching that shit as they have. I still haven't attempted this season of Last of Us. It sounds like I should probably just skip it entirely.

People don't use the top of the scale either. They think a 10/10 movie is perfect. Look at the IMDB top 250, and the top 7 are in the low 9's. After that, they're all 8's. Likewise, the bottom doesn't have any 1's. Certainly there are movies so terrible they deserve it, but nope.

Sounds like someone who never played Death Stranding. That fucker had like 30 minute cutscenes towards the end.

It's the same thing as how Facebook is still making money, and like you said in the post before this, it's basically just going to be boomers propping up Google until they eventually die off if they can't figure out a way to make more money. I'm not an IT person anymore, but it sounds like AWS...

I wonder what it's going to take to get us past that March level again.

Oh no, don't burn down DC, that'd be horrible.

It was...fine. Somehow they managed to make something more boring than actually just watching the episodes themselves. All that other crap just took all the wind out of the sails of the excitement that was the event. Yeah, maybe it gave some backstory, but it seemed low stakes and I have no...

Yeah, here's me who bought at $24, sold at $11, bought at $6, and sold again at $10. That was only a couple years ago. $100? Sheeeeeeeeeeit.

I mentioned it a while back, but there was an approximately 1600 sqft trailer in Orange Beach close to my mother-in-law's place that was renting for $2400 like 3 years ago. I get it though, which is why we want to build there. It's got a 28 mile bike/backcountry trail system, tons of beach...

That reminds me of one of my favorite bases, which was built on bedrock where I'd dig all the way, make a 3x3 hole, and the bottom would open up. Zombies would fall and either die, or be close to death. You'd make an arena and just pick them off from the upper deck.

Keep in mind you can remove mods at will. Like, if you get an axe mod, you only need the one for the entire playthrough (unless this got changed recently). I'm not sure if it's still available, but in steam you also used to be able to change the version to experimental builds and go all the way...

Yeah, at a certain point, the game had skill up on use, and zombies were basically dumb and base building was at its peak because you could experiment with all sorts of fun shit. The devs didn't like that and had some kind of gameplay experience in mind which was the complete opposite of 90% of...

It was all driven by the tariffs. Of which, we still don't know how they'll impact any companies. That data won't likely come out until Q3 (figure tariffs aren't really hitting until maybe now-ish, and then lag another quarter for the data). It's why the market dropping 20% made absolutely fuck...

Uh, so much for what I said, I guess?

On the flip side, this seems like a horrible time to be selling. Between interest rates that won't go down and sky high prices, houses just aren't selling. Just last night we were walking the dogs and I mentioned to my wife, after passing another house that just put up a sale sign, that they...

I wouldn't recommend Undead Legacy until you've played the base game...a lot. That shit is brutal. Incredibly fun, but brutal.

Man, I don't think we ever made it past the 2nd episode of this last season. Edit: Went back and read the last page and apparently I've brought up how we couldn't get past the first two episode 3 times now. My bad, folks.

That shouldn't have been a surprise from February though?

It's because if you're at the point where gold is currency again, well, everything has collapsed enough that rule of law is now gone and anyone with more guns than you can physically take your gold by force. So at that point, what's the point of holding gold and not guns?

Proceeds to post weeb shit. Jerking off to cartoon women with big tits is niche, sorry to break it to you.

So hard to tell anymore. Could say it's bad economic news, so market goes down. Alternatively, bad economy means Fed more likely to reduce rates, so market goes up.

I just remember trying to fit in implants and it was a giant puzzle of swapping shit and getting buffs, but if you figured it out, you'd become a god. It also had the one class, fixer I think, which made Spirit of Wolf look like a joke as you just zoomed around the map. Plus that matrix-style...

I guess not. I went and looked at the JRPG category in Steam, and the only ones that I've played were Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, and those were a good 25 years ago. That kind of weeb shit just doesn't appeal to me, and I would 100% call it niche.

That's a strange take, because Funcom games are fucking fun as shit. The problem with them is always the jank they start with, that sometimes takes years to fix. But Anarchy Online? Secret World? Conan? They were all fantastic games and etched into my mind as some of the best I've ever played...

Yeah, I've been trying to figure it out too. I don't know if maybe this is a story game or something? I've never really been into those though. I can't really figure out what the appeal is. I don't think it looks bad though. There's been tons of games where it's seemed obvious to me, like...

This is probably just like the Amazon store with "AI," and all these people you think are AI bots are actually Indians.

Man, how many centuries ago did Catholicism lose the plot? Ask yourself how any of that idolatry and displays of wealth have fuckall to do with Christ's teachings.

Assuming you're already maxing things like a 401k and IRA (and HSA if it's available and that's a thing you want to do), I'd say it's worthwhile. My usual problem with them is you're basically going with a "putting your eggs in one basket" strategy by doing so. If your income is tied to the...

The builder here, who probably cleared out a good 150+ lots, and has electric and plumbing ran to them, has basically all but stopped doing anything. It's pretty bizarre. They had been putting up houses super fast, but basically about when Trump got into office it was a hard stop. I chalked it...

Lemme guess without checking, it tanked 5% after.

Oof, so much for those "no recession coming." There's no way this quarter is going to be better than Q1.

Pretty sure this is why I never got into Oblivion outside of screwing around a bit. It actively punishes you for playing the game like an RPG. If I have to change the way I play to gimp myself so the game doesn't get fucky, that's not fun.

I don't think his stance ever changed. This is just people making shit up and it's enough to move markets 1-2%. Like @Sanrith Descartes said, the SEC should destroy these people. It's malicious.

Right, but he's insinuating volatility way worse than this, and for much longer. In that scenario I see money going overseas.

I hope not. If the market is more volatile like this, and it's a long term trend, money will probably move out of stocks and that'd be real, real bad. For everyone and everything.

Honestly, they're just fun to watch for the creative death scenes.

Except earnings aren't forward looking. We won't see earning hit by tariffs until next quarter. Stocks are forward looking, but it's why I said this correction seems kind of retarded to me as the tariffs are applied and then the next day rescinded. I mean, we probably needed a correction after...

Man, went and listened to a bunch of their shit. I really dig it too. Hope this grunge type stuff makes a comeback.
