    Eternals (2021)

    Galactus does feel like a natural fit for Eternals 2. Twist his hunger into a conflict w/ the Celestials, a balancing force of nature / antagonist, harvesting the energy - but both sides still resulting in the destruction of the planets, so bad all around.

    Forza Horizon 5

    I have to turn off real-time virus scanning on defender and start the game as an administrator or it crashes within a few seconds. Friend seemed to have to disable his secondary monitor. Wonder if he has a different magnification on it, I've had that problem before (one monitor is 1440p, the...

    Quite a headline for a 'B' grade, lol.

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    Lizard is in one of the trailers while Dr. Strange is casting the spell. Even with his changes to it, it still doesn't click for me, lol.

    Forza Horizon 5

    Just play. It's fun. That's it. When you want to go deeper you can get into tuning, etc. If you don't, just enjoy.

    Succession

    I enjoyed a lot of this episode, but ultimately felt like a bit of filler. The podcast for this episode with Mark Cuban talking about being in both positions as a shareholder and beholden to shareholders was kinda interesting.

    Forza Horizon 5

    Yeah, just wait until they start releasing content. Shit like the Lego update in 4 was bonkers, lol.

    Eternals (2021)

    Mid-tier MCU origin movie with a lot of new characters and really big concepts (Celestials, cosmic MCU stuff). YMMV how that translates. Might go watch it again later this week myself.

    Mahomes and Love playing like a couple of rookies when neither are.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    It's wild how wrong everything about that was. Ruled a touchback when it wasn't that even if it didn't touch a Packer, lol.

    Eternals (2021)

    Much of this is about the first scene, but Charlie's got a pretty good overview of him here.

    Forza Horizon 5

    meStevo is my gt. If you have any crashing on PC turning off real time scanning in security settings, helped me a bit.

    Eternals (2021)

    Non-spoiler response: Disagree. I wondered how they would integrate going forward, and while I think some stories have just been parked for any possible future usage, there are events in this movie that will be referenced like 'the blip' and 'the battle for New York'. And that's not even...

    Enjoyed it for the most part. Some great after credit scenes.

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    Yeah, friends have been really active lately too, so even if I had committed to one I'd have almost no time put in because we're playing AoE, Phasmo, Elements TD, Gloomhaven, etc almost every night.

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    Working on it! Just picked up a HD60 S+ so I can include console games in my streaming (I largely missed the entire PS2 and PS4 gens), and going to set a schedule and any night that's not co-op or raid nights will be this backlog effort ;). Had already hashed out the Series X settings for it...

    Age of Empires IV

    Probably an EQ casualty. I was too busy playing Red Alert for my RTS fix and then nothing but EQ for years, skipped the PS2 console gen, etc.

    Morbius (2020)

    Liked a lot of that. I think because much of the trailer is just straight acting and practical-looking effects rather than the typical over-CGI sheen of a Sony Marvel movie.

    Age of Empires IV

    Yeah, Generals was great. Played so much Red Alert prior to that. Beyond those, Supreme Commander (1 and then 2, despite all it's faults) was the last one that really clicked with me. Planetary Annihilation was too much of a 'mass units that don't feel like they mean anything' game and then...

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    I'm in, just need to get some things sorted. Going to stream 100% of it too. I've finished probably 2 single player games in the last decade.

    Age of Empires IV

    I might have spent like 90 minutes on the 2nd Norman mission. Just got in a stalemate for a while and I'm a bad.

    Age of Empires IV

    Bumping this back up since it's out and download discussion was going on in the Game Pass thread. Played the first couple campaign missions, the videos they've done for the campaign are really nice, like watching a NatGeo special or something.

    The Astronomy Thread

    94% is a big number, yet it's almost hard to comprehend just how much that 6% is. Just really even properly grasping the scope of our solar system is too much for most (or even the size of the earth-moon system)

    Inscryption on PC card deck building game

    I've picked it up because I love deckbuilders but haven't gotten into it yet. Saw Dan playing it, he died and then he became one of the cards or something for his next attempt, lol. Basically it's a deckbuilder and the evil you're playing with makes you get up and do some puzzle shit around...

    Phasmophobia (PC, VR Crossplay)

    A lot of fun with this tonight, part of our problem is it's hard to tell if it wants to eat your face or if it's just appearing. Requires groups to be more strategic rather than grabbing all the gear and running all over the place. The lower sanity gets the more important it is to have someone...

    Phasmophobia (PC, VR Crossplay)

    Think that's up to you, there's a lot of content creators that play this solo. Obviously that's to play w/ their chat, etc, but it's doable if it's your thing. You can also join random rooms, just usual caveats apply about playing online games w/ randoms.
