    This isn't bad. Worth watching if you already have Apple TV for Foundation.

    Dune (2020)

    Yeah really. Great movie. 👍 It was like those first 4 seasons of GOT. So good a 1 hour episode felt like 15 minutes. Fuuuuck now we gotta wait til next week? 😵

    Anyway came here to post ... D2 Resurrected is popular despite the incompetence. There's been a ton of unscheduled downtime, data loss, and queues at 8AM on a Monday. :(

    Yes white men are bad. Meanwhile in Africa there are currently literal *Cannibal Armies*. o_O https://video.vice.com/en_us/video/the-cannibal-warlords-of-liberia/560a7cac7676b705187e64f7

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    ^ yeah agree about the Hammerdin. Got mine to 45 and the mechanics are so damn tedious. Gave up and made a Bowazon. Also agreed about needing a real game filter and joining as a group. Damn this must be popular though. Getting BNET queues at 8AM EST ...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Man the 6+ player games really speed things up. Started a level 1 Amazon a few hours ago. She's now level 22 and cleared Act 5. Really nice if you can get in a group that stays together and clears all the acts.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    How is Camelot Unchained doing these days? The first thread on it was 8 years ago and its still in beta... Also Crowfall seems to have released and died. Was it ever officially released? https://community.crowfall.com/topic/33511-where-did-everyone-go/

    Foundation

    Yeah the Empire stuff is cool. Everything else kinda pedestrian but not bad. But damn does this show look good. Best landspeeders since Star Wars.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    111 hours to finish as Normal difficulty Slayer Deliverer on Angel Mythic path. Angel is pretty damn good. Party wide buffs, immunities, and AC bonuses are great. Would probably be better on a dedicated caster / healer though. I had 2 Slayer Deliverer archers, 2 Monks tanks with Rogue dips...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Loving this so far. Only complaint - do melee moves seem to attack air a lot? Is it net code lag? I have 95% to hit bit Zeal seems to hit air like 50% of the time. 😵

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Even without buffs the Dex tanks are better. At around level 14 I had a pair Fighter heavy armor tank mercs. I made a pair of Scaled Fist Monks with the 1 Sorc, 1 Witch, and they are like 15+ AC higher without any excessive buffs. Keep in mind: (1) heavy armor is plenty viable for Normal...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Can we get a roundup of the most common OP tank cheese for preferably minimal investment? From what I've seen: - Lich Mythic Path for the DR and immunities - no armor (unless doing a mega-DR tank) - Cross Blooded Sorcerer 1 level - gets two level 20 Mythic Bloodline Ascensions, usually Undead...

    Foundation

    Easy to get a free Apple TV month. Been a while since I read the books but this is almost a total re-write while preserving the core narrative. Not bad. It looks great and has some decent actors. Worth a month free sub to Apple TV for sure.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Yeah AFAIK the leopard has always had the highest AC even in Kingmaker. Due to their dex putting barding on lowers AC (at least from the barding i have found so far).

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    First run is on Normal and it's almost too easy. Gonna do second run on Core with one of these two builds. One is insane DR tank with life regen: Other is a Vital Strike build that can do 3k damage in one hit:

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    First run on Normal with a Lawful Good archer Slayer Deliverer on Angel mythic path. Party is all custom mercs, 2 ranged Slayer, 2 melee Slayer, Sylvan Sorcerer, Nature Cleric. If you do custom mercs I'd suggest buying them exactly after you level up. And before level 4 or so or they get...

    Solasta: Crown of the Magister

    Total drop the ball on this game. Incredibly bad itemization. The PC character models are such that it impossible to make a decent looking character. Sad because with better art direction and sane itemized / crafting this could a classic. Everything else is quite well done.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I've bought 3 CyberPowerPC and they all still running fine. The earliest one is 4 years old I gave to a friend. AFAIK they don't underpower or undercool their machines. Unless you overlocking or installing new hardware there shouldn't be power or heat issues. Current PC is a stock RX-6800 /...
