    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    Is this shade being thrown at MnM? Wasn't it Shawn who took finally became lead or something around Luclin?

    The Pitt

    It's weird, because I watch some of these "doctors watch Pitt" videos and they basically all rave about how realistic everything is and is damn near identical to how shit goes down constantly. Disappointing they added this one in as some hero moment when it's not. I did enjoy how it was...

    The Madison

    My wife decided to start watching this. Some rich white girl gets mugged in NYC and when she flags down some cops and they ask what the guy looks like, she gets all upset about how she's not going to mention his race. And just like that, I'm out. It's funny, personal anecdote time, we were in...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    This is what I said about this one and AoC a while ago. Developers love huge sprawling worlds for some reason, but they end up being 90% empty as everyone filters into the most effective zones. Because literally no one wants to go to a subpar leveling (or loot) area. One, because it's just an...

    Firefly

    It also doesn't help that we're now two decades removed from the show, so a lot of what probably drew people to Firefly has since been copied (someone mentioned the "snarky" humor that Marvel since has copied into the ground).

    Firefly

    I'm not saying the show is bad. Just undeserving of the cult status. Which is what I was quoting Gavin's post about. In fact, I did some reading after my post, and it seems like the entire reason people liked the show so much was the potential it had to be a great show. Not even so much about...

    Firefly

    I don't really get the hype. I had never watched it and started last year. I've watched 9 episodes so far, and I believe only 11 originally aired. It's an interesting concept of a space western, but the plotlines aren't anything super interesting. The cast seems decently likeable. But I honestly...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Can you elaborate? I mean, I already decided in the alpha that the game wasn't for me, but I'm curious what you saw

    Grand Theft Auto VI

    I think the only ones I beat were Vice City and 5. San Andreas and 4 just kind of petered out for me. I can't even recall playing 3.

    Geology, Earthquakes and Volcanos

    Here you go. 4.9 is pretty decent. Enough to make your house rumble pretty good.

    The Pitt

    Between that, the illegals, and the "brown woman" who doctors don't listen to, this episode seemed to go heavier than normal on the woke shit. The first season definitely had some, but more seems to be sneaking in this season. Which is disappointing.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I haven't played WoW since like 2005. Why would I go back to a game I haven't played in over two decades?

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That seems like it would gel perfectly with the xp loss and dropping your entire corpse mechanics. I'm sure no one would rage quit when they die because they can't even target something and it kills them.

    Crimson Desert

    I like how much complaining is going on in this thread about BDO's combat, which is basically the best part of the game (maybe 2nd after the life skills which they nailed). The way combat can flow so easily from one skill to the next, and these fucking geezers complaining. I didn't think of it...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    What's the deal with buddy codes? They available to anyone in beta? Separate question, does alpha access confer beta access? Just wondering if I've got buddy codes sitting in waiting I don't know about, that I could hook someone up with. Since I haven't actually played this since like September.

    Untitled Scrubs Reboot

    Is Christa Miller in this? Her plastic surgery is absolutely horrific. She's on Shrinking and every time she's got a scene it's just painful to even look at. It's like the fucking Joker smile.

    A Song of Ice and Fire (Released Spoilers)

    I've noticed this as a trend as well. I think maybe Breaking Bad started it. Or maybe even The Sopranos. But I couldn't really get into Ozark either. Same thing for Black Rabbit. When your characters are just scummy pieces of shit without any redeeming qualities, I'm not sure why I'm watching.

    Where the fuck do you find these movies? Trailer has under 5k views, and yet somehow @kroenen is on top of it to post a thread.

    So Los Angeles sucks

    Honestly, Los Angeles is a pretty shit tourist place. It's more of a "I like to go out to eat or enjoy nightlife" type of place. But everything's so spread out, it's basically a shit show. Honestly, the only "thing" I would recommend is the Getty. Maybe the La Brea tar pits, too. Otherwise, the...

    Paradise

    Haven't started the new season yet, but this is literally how every one of these mystery box shows based on a really interesting premise goes. The pilot is awesome, and the rest of the first season really unfolds masterfully. But they weren't really sure what to do after that, or if it'd even...

    That was wild. The comment section is also a gold mine. Edit: Watching this high the next day (well, right now). This shit fucking slaps. Hard.

    Looks like time for our now monthly market overreaction to tariff changes. You'd think at this point the market would just learn to ignore it, but here we are. Doing the same shit. Again.

    Ashes of Creation

    I only joined it for that one game, and because we didn't have an FoH guild for some reason. I blame Tuco for us all joining them, even though I don't remember the series of events whatsoever.

    Was PDX on that server? If so, I guess we probably crossed paths. Although I quit not too long after the sieging castles shit started because it was retarded.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Probably piggybacking on Dawson's Creek who everyone would assume had a high net worth but spent it all apparently on medical bills. May as well ask for money whether you actually need it or not.

    Rental Family (2025)

    I thought this was just okay. I feel like most movies today are way too long, but with this one the emotional connection between Fraser's character and the others just seemed to lack enough development to be meaningful. And I think that's just because there wasn't enough screen time to make it...

    Westworld

    The only reason I know we watched season two is because I remember Kiksuya. Otherwise I remember the rest of the season being a big letdown. So much so that I didn't even attempt to watch season 3.

    Probably my favorite guest they've ever had. Entertaining episode. His Morgan Freeman Seven answer was pretty funny.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Except MnM is purposefully going for a pace of gaming that's super slow, closer to vanilla EQ. You're basically describing a solution to a game that isn't being made.

    I got into the alpha and that's when I decided the game wasn't great. I enjoyed the hell out of the limited playtests and assumed once I got into the alpha I'd play the shit out of it. Yeah, turns out, the game is way too rough around the edges and when I had unlimited playtime for it, I decided...
