Heh, Action Howard rendered literally speechless. That was awesome, just his expression during that rant ;p

Battleships already have a strong position in that they suffer vastly lower casualties than corvettes against any non-trivial opposition - their extra health means they are more likely to jump out than be destroyed, so you get them back at end of combat. They are also waaay better for...

Scout out your targets and refit to counter their weapons and armor except point defense, which is pretty much useless, and strike craft which are awful. Cruisers are bad ( mostly because of strike craft sucking ) Destroyers with L weapons can be generally useful Corvettes have the most...

It's much more Star Trek than Discovery was, but it's not a parody in any way. It's played pretty much desperately earnest with the occasional joke thrown in. An uncharitable review I saw called it Seth doing Trek cosplay, which is a little unkind, but pretty accurate.

That one was non-obvious to me at first, but the health bar on the planet is for the current bombing target, when it hits zero, that targets is destroyed and it starts bombing something else. For invading only a few of your guys can attack at one time, that's the 'combat width' you can see on...

This - it's the little magnet symbol on the system, it means the planet has an FTL inhibitor, you'll need to either conquer the planet or destroy it before you can pass.

Depends on what you want out of them: Synthetic Dawn adds robot empires and mechanics, no benefit unless you like robots and want to play as or against them. Leviathans adds lots of raid boss type encounters for mid-game, with associated perks and technologies etc for defeating them as well as...

It's crazily hard to balance group buffs - see the debacle of disc priest this expansion. Think of even a super simple example - if the bard does no damage at all, and just buffs other people, how much do you buff them by ? Assuming 2 tanks and 4 healers , you have 14 dps spots other than the...

Clearly it's not her fault, original Howard is too boring, action Howard won't put up with her shit, what's a woman to do other than fuck some random behind his back ? ;p

While I wouldn't disagree with that characterization of Stross, I'm honestly curious what you found offensively SJW in Dark State ? It didn't strike me as particularly preachy.

I've actually played a bit of this recently - I got my $10 of entertainment from it, but it's not a long term thing - it's shallow, poorly balanced, the tactical AI is trivially exploitable and it's got huge late game performance issues. It is very moo2 like, I'll give it that - not many...

Welp I guess we can officially add 'Starting a civil war' to the list of 'Things I should probably have run past my wife before doing'. Hopefully Wakanda has advanced life extension tech as well, because angry man with dead parents isn't getting laid again this century ;p I though this one was...

It also improves the tactical AI significantly, as well as decreasing late game lag - a lot of time was apparently spent pathfinding by the AI players.

Lol at Margo's expression when he suggested they had 'depth and character' ;p She's definitely the best character.

Man, I can see why they went where they did, but

If they are going to do cash whoring then cosmetic stuff seems fine to me - better than having DLC with one overpowered unit or useful feature and a bunch of fluff.

Just think of historically shitty trade deals, like with the native americans. Neither side want to get fucked in a trade so really want to find out what the other guys have got so that they can get favorable terms. You could easily argue that it doesn't actually matter if they get swindled...

Lol, put Space Hitler in charge of your "diversity" issues. What could go wrong ? ;p

Well for sci-fi/spy thriller, try 'The Breach' by Patrick Lee or 'The Family Trade' by Charles Stross. 'Waypoint Kangaroo' is also pretty fun.

Surely you mean 'is a rebellious lackey of the female asian who is actually supreme leader of the evil empire' ? And really, shouldn't Saru count as a straight white male ? ;p

I've really liked both episodes so far - it's a very different feel and style of show, which I appreciate, and some great performances. Plus, tits, which there are never enough of on TV lately.

I'm still pretty sure S1 was just carried by the acting. It was just as full of overly portentous monologues on random nonsense, McConaughey just made it work instead of looking like a dipshit.

Well, obviously brewmaster is by the far the best tank at tanking while under 5% life, you just need to make sure your healers only heal you when you are 1 melee swing from death and the theoretical EHP is through the roof ! ;p

Welp, I have to say to the writers - 'Well played, well played indeed.'

Seemed kinda generic.

I dunno that that is a fair criticism, given that you are complaining about the ending to an imaginary storyline that you just created ? ;p I'd at least wait til they write it before complaining, heh. Overall I thought this book was pretty good. Not the best of the series, but considerably...

Finished this one up, it got even better as it went on - the transporter malfunction ongoing gag still makes me snicker thinking about it ;p

He has a few series, all of which I rate at least 'good'. The stormlight archive books are the most well known, and are high fantasy, some of his best work and a one of the greats in the field, in my opinion. Pros include a fantastically detailed and original world, great action with...

This was some surprisingly funny shit. I liked the balance they had between humor and seriousness.

It's not worth leveling characters solely for this purpose, but if you have alts, you are kind of crazy not to. The gold per time spent actually doing stuff is literally unbeatable by anything except being unbelievably lucky with AH flips. Remember you can fire this shit off from your mobile...

I think it would have a hard time in any case, the raw ultraviolence doesn't really fit with Marvel's established brand - there's probably lot of people who liked other Marvel stuff that had a really negative reaction.

As far as I know, all the normal missions reset every 6 hours. "Clearing" them out isn't really a thing.

I'd trust those results about as far as I could kick them. Compare the t20 sims as of *now* (after hundreds of revisions, bug fixes, apl updates to make it match reality closer) vs reality Simulationcraft Results Warcraft Logs - Combat Analysis for Warcraft

Uh, I think you may have missed a chapter or two there somehow.

I'm not what anyone would call a Trump fan, but the main thing with it is that almost nothing on this show about Trump has been funny. If I wanted depressing political commentary I'd watch a serious news shows - where are the lols ?

The Secret Throne [Queen of Dreams 1] Peter F Hamilton - Two young sisters find that their father is actually an exiled prince of another land when he is kidnapped by political enemies and they have to rescue him for their evil clutches. This was basically Hamilton does Narnia. It's pretty much...

On the one hand, the mediocrity of the first season hasn't really changed, on the other hand, they did double the number of hot young lesbians AND add a hot asian chick. Plus, at least it's not inhumans.

The 7.3 order hall changes were absolutely a buff to gold farming - the original 100 and 200 resource missions still spawn at the same rate, but you also get the new 400 and 500 resource missions as well, leading to roughly double the gold for triple the resources. I find actually logging in to...
