    The Mandalorian

    vibroblades are basically exactly what you think they are. they come in several styles (knives, swords, i think even axes for the gamorians). the blades themselves vibrate in small but extremely quick manner making them (from what i remember) not only cut but destabilize whatever they come in...

    Superliminal

    the whole game is just a giant mindfuck. on top of the fact that in order to figure these things out, you have to sort of mindfuck yourself to even think in such odd ways

    Event Horizon (1997)

    late reply. they take artistic freedom with most of their stuff, obviously but it pretty much all comes from established mythos. the "christian" stuff isn't actually christian, it's taken from a mish-mash of christian, jewish and catholic religious documents but it usually gets lumped into the...

    man... could you imagine what it would be like to have your entire identity wrapped up in the success or failure of someone who doesn't even know you exist? pic unrelated... or is it?

    The D&D thread

    playing in person with your friends is pretty great. i also had a friend of mine who ran a group with people i had never met. we met at a comic book store and it was about as awkward as you think. for the last 4 years or so, though i've been playing online with fantasy grounds just because all...

    The Mandalorian

    i'm just... getting tired of hollywood completely disregarding an ip's own documented history. on one hand, i think that krayt dragon looked pretty cool and had acid breath and was just awesome... on the other hand, that thing wasn't a krayt dragon. we've seen krayt dragons in all kinds of...

    Terminator (2019)

    Honestly I think it's more about the movies he's in and let about how acting ability. I think he's been fine in everything, but the movies themselves have been pretty terrible.

    The D&D thread

    Friend of mine is the same way as your seer, except with illusions. After a short campaign, the DM actually banned illusionists from his table so he could spend a bunch of time figuring out how to deal with them. The player was outright sidestepping all kinds of extremely difficult and we'll...

    Barbarians

    yeah honestly that's my biggest gripe. the english dubbing is pretty low quality. i watched the first episode and it seems interesting enough, though

    The D&D thread

    see, but i think went with the best option, they underpowered magic drops and what not, so that DM's could easily just add items, instead of dm's feeling like magic drops are too much and feeling like if they lessen the impact of magic items, now every encounter is too hard. it's ALWAYS easier...

    Mortal Kombat 11

    Honestly with where the dlcs are going, I'd totally be okay with this just being the official thing from now on. Bring in rutger hauer from blade runner, Highlander, actual cannibal Shia lebeouf

    Fast & Furious 9 (2020)

    at this point, might as well bring back gina carano, and maybe even cole hauser

    don't gloss over the part that makes the entire behavior actually make sense... "topless selfie pics with her and I"

    Mortal Kombat 11

    just a few short years ago.. could you imagine ANYONE saying with a serious face, "my favorite MK character is Rambo."

    Terminator (2019)

    kit harrington is doing pretty well. and the hound, can't think of his name. rory something or other. the older, more side-ish characters are mostly theatre type actors that get constant work. nothing crazy money-wise, but the money is decent and it's constant work.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    that's actually an interesting question... i imagine that if a streamer is cognizant of what they are doing, they will prepare for any known nudity, like character creation... but what about when they are just playing the game and some nudity shows up. and twitch is goofy about bare feet.. does...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    friend of mine has broken the game in several ways. i play dnd regularly with him so i'm not at all surprised by his antics... he meticulously ran around collecting exploding barrels and then dropped them around a spider. and i mean like... 100 barrels. he threw some alchemist fire on it and...

    Vigil: the Longest Night

    yeah, there's definitely some grammar problems. but the gameplay is engaging enough. it's a fun little game

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    There are plenty of ways to make the Animus work. The problem is a) clearly the main focus is a simulated historical architecture museum. They spend so much time focusing on the world building of the past and just exposit on the present day. So instead of it having a cohesive story, all it does...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    the gta 5 story was interesting because of how the 3 protagonists were different types of gamers. you have the fresh face who despite being told that everything is shit, is still really looking forward to what's new. you have the old retiree who's played everything, done everything. he's...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    the extra bonus for thief subclass is probably there to balance out every character having a minor cunning action. jump/disengage rules as written should be rogue only, but mechanically in 3d space everyone kind of needs it. sometimes the pathing is wonky because there are no grids, so in order...

    The D&D thread

    matt colville put a book out, strongholds. it's pretty good. it's basically about your characters having a castle or whatever. if gives them something to spend money on (upgrades) as well as giving the players tangible benefits. my DM is using some modified rules for it, but for example, if we...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    no i don't tihnk it sounded racist, honestly. i think this game has a party problem in that the characters don't fit all that well together. i know that's part of the narrative, but if you're like me, you want a balanced party and it's not entirely obvious how to do that. if you are using gale...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    pretty sure the gta comparison is because it's an open world game set in a city and you can drive. i can see why people make the comparison, but i also think this and gta are far enough removed that it's not really an accurate comparison
