    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    He does kinda look like a Conan bad guy, or something from the next direct-to-digital Scorpion King n+1 He looks OK really, but how does someone in that getup stand next to Batman, Superman, etc and not look completely ridiculous is the challenge.

    Board Games

    Yeah, as I understand it you're modifying the game board (establishing bases/capitals based on victors of games and whatnot), tearing up cards, opening sealed scenarios that make irreparable changes to the game if you follow them. I absolutely love the idea even though it basically amounts of...

    The Order: 1886

    I keep almost picking up a telltale game and then don't for whatever reason. End up just watching that episode on twitch for a few minutes (via the Xbox One store) and talk myself out of it. All of them for $55 seems like a steal as far as content goes and they've been on sale like that a few...

    The Order: 1886

    I know what you mean, but length, as the point of controversy over the last week or so, really doesn't seem to be the prevailing complaint. It's almost universally panned as boring it seems. That's not something I expected, thought the complaints would center around the multiple consecutive...

    The Order: 1886

    I'm pretty self-deprecating, and when I joke about size she points at our kids and says 'it worked' I can't even imagine being a developer on this game and reading reviews like what have come out today. Just absolutely brutal.

    I've been subbed to a meetup and just ignored the notifications for... 2 years? lol. There's a regular local game designer meetup also for people to test/talk about games they're making. Looks like some guys are working on a little convention thing too (3 day version tentatively planned for...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    As someone's who's got a 655ish Hunter and an entire stable of ilevel 655 garrison followers, I found I was still just doing the bold too. With BRF coming I never even really bothered to PUG through normal Highmaul for a few more incremental upgrades. BRF came out and I realized even then I...

    Had 3 friends relocate in the last 2 months, probably living vicariously through this thread now for the most part. Stuff like X-Com makes me want to show up to one of the meetups or game nights the shops here in Vegas have though, we'll see.

    SNL 40

    Kate Mckinnon was Beiber. Actually really like her as Ellen. I liked the special, but yeah, way too long. Really weak direction or something with the missed queues (you know they probably rehearsed the whole thing a few times too). The worst of the night to me was that opening...

    Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Amazing!

    I don't mind putting on the other two from time to time as they're fun to watch/listen to with a couple exceptions, but this was a long and brutal/dark movie that I'm not sure I even want to watch again until just before the next is out.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I was jaded for a bit due to duping and whatnot, but after my wife saw me watching streams leading up to S2 and playing w/ friends many evenings on PC, she asked to play Diablo 3 yesterday on PS4. She's got it for PC due to the WoW promo, but isn't a fan of the 'clicking around games' (I have a...

    Anyone getting The Order? The stuff coming out of GAF and elsewhere verifying the amount of cutscenes, length of game, etc are brutal. Reviews are going to be really interesting.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    One article I had read yesterday said that characters coming from MCU and into Sony's Spider-Man films were under consideration also. Could be more cohesive than some are expecting.

    He was already almost certainly gone, according to the leaked Sony emails, even if this didn't happen.

    Fantastic Four seems more plausible depending on how this next movie is received, smaller cast of characters to integrate also. X-Men doing too well, yeah.

    Not a fan of the Firefly game, so easy to lose it all and never be able to catch up. And/or I just sucked at it. Very interested in trying XCOM. Seems to be getting a lot of buzz/press.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Didn't seem too rare for us, we've all gotten a couple each and a couple ancients between us. Helps to play with other monks so when one drops it can be passed around. Even before I got it I was melting stuff with a Furnace, just not as efficiently obviously. Odd thing over the last couple...

    Don't hate it, but really not interested in this A-Force stuff by Marvel. Just don't like the blatant pandering... just promote stronger female characters across the line (lead a team or two, central cogs in major events, etc), rather than dump them into impractical titles. Maybe it will be...

    Tried out the 'zDPS support doctor' build last night to see how far my friend and I could get in a greater rift with his fire wave of light monk. We cleared to 37, and the boss at the end was the adds + tornados guy in a cave tileset... was the most enjoyable and challenging fight we've had...

    As very casual MMA fans there are few recognizable faces for us on the card, and with the app not on Xbox One we don't have Fight Pass yet so was going to miss the one fighter I did recognize and like (Brandao)... and then his fight was cancelled, lol. We're getting it for the main event...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Doesn't seem to be a big stretch. They dumped the RMAH, so no need to deal with bugs that could have financial consequences for anyone and ultimately removed a bunch of financial-related complexity, while appeasing a good chunk of the fanbase in the process. Wish they'd bring over the...

    Been playing the shit out of this again lately, enjoying the monk 'blow everything up' wave of light build that took all of 2 days to gear for. Really though as my friends and I play we talk about I posted here some time ago... where's the Warcraft-themed Diablo-style game? A decade of lore...
