    God of War: Ragnarok

    I just finished the main story, still have a few things to do though. The story isn’t as good as the previous one, that said I like it a lot especially the second half. They went with a fairly safe design overall in basically keeping with the formula that worked on the previous which isn’t a...

    Project LLL

    It looks interesting but being NCSoft I have my reservation. Something else to follow in any case.

    God of War: Ragnarok

    Yeah the kid’s part are a lot less interesting. I mean some of the lore and story is interesting and even his combat isn’t bad but it’s just I want to play as Kratos.

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    I keep waiting for Montreal to implode and get back into the chase for Bédard but doesn’t look like it will happen. Suzuki and Caufield are continuing their amazing season and they’ve been joined by Dach. Our 4 rookies defensemen are still holding their own, they‘re not going anywhere. They...

    God of War: Ragnarok

    About 8 hours in but not very far into the story, just freed Tyr basically. I’m very thorough exploring and reading everything. Plays pretty much like the previous one which is a good thing really, as mentioned if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. The story is pretty slow, I remember being more...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I liked Diablo 3 a lot mostly because it was fairly simple, and very flexible about builds. If you take Path of Exiles which I enjoy a bit, but have massive issue with the fact that you essentially need to plan your build ahead of time, and you can't really respec if you find gear that would be...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I haven’t followed the development much aside from a few videos recently from IGN, but everything I saw and heard from those videos looks good to me. Mind you I loved Diablo 3. Aside from MMOs it’s my most played game.

    Spirited (2022)

    Ok, I thought the lip-synching joke with the guy from Milli Vanilli was funny. :)

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I usually pre-order now just the day before release after reviews are out. As mentioned with digital, it’s not like they are going to run out of copies like it was possible with physical copies.

    Andor

    I love this show. The slow pacing is not a mistake, it’s intended. They want to slowly setup the characters and the stakes so that you care about what happens and the payoff. It has worked so far. And it’s working again, I cannot wait about what’s coming. It helps that writing and acting is...

    Ashes of Creation

    Ashes of Creation will be insanely popular at release, it simply has too much going for it and people are so hungry for a good MMO and then it will die the first time a city node and all related player housing are destroyed in PVP and the PVE players realize all their hard work and time invested...

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    So 45 hours in, I hit level 30 which is the cap before new game+. I then went to finish the 3 villains side story, then the main story. The main is really good, well written with excellent voice acting. The villains stories were good, the Clayface one was way too short though compared to the...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Yes he was made gay in 2011, had to look it up but I remember it had been a while.

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    I understand what you're saying, and I am not disputing the fact that the Arkham games are probably better, reviews everywhere have said as much. This game could certainly benefit from certain improvements, that said I am genuinely enjoying it and having fun. Maybe playing the Arkham games would...

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    I usually just enjoy open world games, I spent 150+ hours on both AC Odyssey and Valhalla before finishing the main story. Yes it’s repetitive stuff, but for some reason I just enjoy this stuff. It’s kinda mindless gameplay that doesn’t require tons of effort. One of my favorite game is Death...

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    I made level 20 last night after some 24 hours played. Still at chapter 3 (there's 8 total I think) in the story which is like level 10-12 so I'm spending way too much just playing around in the open world. I just can't stop myself from stopping crime everywhere. Oh, and fuck drone operators...

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    I’ve been playing this since Friday, I’m level 13 right now, just recently finished unlocking fast travel. I’m not very far into the story as I keep doing open world stuff. I’m really enjoying the game so far. The writing is pretty good so far for main story and the vilains side story I’ve done...

    Sweet goal on a penalty shot by Nick Suzuki.

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Someone needs to tell Suzuki and Canfield that we are after Bedard and that’s not the way to do it. ;)

    She-Hulk

    This is my least favorite MCU show so far. It lack direction, it was all over the place and I feel it didn’t much to advance the character. One of the core aspect of She-Hulk was the fact the Jennifer enjoyed being She-Hulk because it made her feel strong and confident. I think they stayed away...

    Andor

    Once again, an excellent episode. I know I repeat myself every episode but the production values are so high for this show compared to the other Star Wars shows. Mandalorian is pretty good but production values are way lower. It’s a slow show but it works really well, the 2 episodes build up...

    Overwatch 2

    So, I restarted playing this after 2-3 years away. I used to oscillate between Gold and Silver in all roles, with a few times going into Platinum. I got put into Bronze 1 as a healer, Silver 2 as a DPS(Mei), and Bronze 4 as a tank. Pretty disappointing results, I guess 2-3 years away from...

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Montreal played for 100%(0-8) in pre-season, they are good to go in their quest of tanking hard for Bedard. I'm going to cheer them on. :)

    The Sandman

    Finally got around to finishing this. I enjoyed it, and will watch more if they make more.

    Andor

    This continues to be a very well written and well acted show that is a slow burn. That’s fine by me, as mentioned the characters are well developed and you understand why they are there. They managed in a short period of time to make me anxious about how this mission will go, there are stakes to...

    Overwatch 2

    The little girl running with the axe was hilarious. Their animation team still has it.

    Andor

    I’m enjoying this despite the slow pace, but I have to agree that it’s probably going to better watching a few episode at a time since they seem to be taking an episode or two to set things up and then have an episode that pays off. The production value are really amazing.

    Andor

    So finished all 3 episodes, this is a well made show. Everything is week done, great locations, sets, etc…well written and well acted, by far the best made Disney+ Star Wars tv show. That said, it’s definitely slow which I don’t mind when setting stuff up, hopefully they are mostly done with...

    She-Hulk

    5 episodes in and i have no clue where they heading with the story, actually there doesn’t seem to be any story. I’m not sure what they are planning the character either. It just feels aimless right now. Probably the MCU show I’ve enjoyed the least so far.

    The Sandman

    I started this last night and ended up watching the first 4 episodes. I really enjoyed it, I thought the visuals were great, and the casting for Dream is spot on. Since I've read the original, I've always loved the battle between Dream and the demon(in the tv show vs Lucifer). I love the "I am...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Secret Invasion looks like it’s going to be light on superheroes and focused more on Fury and the human aspect of it. Great cast, hopefully it turns out good.

    Willow

    Well that looks better than I expected, bar was low but still it looks pretty good.

    Andor

    I cannot express how unexcited I was by this when it was announced and how I became slightly more interested every time they showed a new trailer, to the point where I am genuinely exited about it now. I still don’t like the prequel idea because we know nothing happens to Andor who is alive...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    I just finished watching this. It was bad, the humor wasn’t good, not a lot of actually funny lines or situations. The worse part is that it turned everything into a joke. The god city was a joke, Zeus was a joke. I liked Thor the Dark World better to be honest, and thats at the bottom of the list.

    Black Adam (2021)

    I‘m a fan of Dwayne Johnson, I like the character in this Black Adam, Dr. Fate, Hawkman…yet I’m still at best lukewarm for this. Either the constant disappointment of the DCU movies makes me unable to get excited about anything they do, or theres just something off about this one that I cannot...

    Death Stranding

    We’ll just finished my 3rd play through, this time of the Director’s Cut. I finished it in 65 hours compared to 90 hours the first time. I did pretty much the same thing, which is to build all the roads, and get almost all of the destination to 5 stars. Think I have only the Collector and First...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    So I finally watched both episodes and enjoyed it. I thought the production values were great. I did have issues with pacing, very little happened in 2 episodes of 1 hour each, it’s a lot of setup which is rarely the most exciting aspect of a show. Hopefully there will be a payoff that will make...

    Samaritan (2022)

    It was ok but pretty forgettable. You saw the twist from a mile away, it was pretty obvious from the first few minutes.

    She-Hulk

    I'd disagree with the Ms. Marvel comparison, I'll admit though that I thoroughly enjoyed the show. Yes she got her powers by just putting on the bracelet, but she didn't immediately master her powers. She is shown working on learning how to use them, and she makes mistake even dropping down a...
