    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Okay so a bit of a right turn, but I recently installed Median XL for Diablo 2 for something new since I bailed on PoE league weeks ago. It no longer needs you to reverse engineer your install to an old patch level, so it is way easy now. Anyway, I am disappointed that I don't like it. I...

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    Dayum. I had to uninstall a bunch of stuff just to get Ark on my SSD - although I hated it so much I refunded it quick. I think that total install was around 120 GB/250. Conveniently I just ordered a new laptop with a 500 GB SSD, so I got this too........ I diverted cash from the 1 TB SSD to...

    Terminator (2019)

    All right, listen you fucking cucks. All we want is a good action movie with a decent foundational premise in a hopefully vague time-loop to give an excuse to have a nigh-indestructible robot chasing the protagonist. T2 was successful because the action sequences were bad ass and the...

    The Matrix reboot/remake

    This is late to the post (Sept 26) but, without reading the article, I interpret "Very Ambitious" as = Retarded. Harris is a great dead-pan comedy actor, but in a serious role? Um, no thanks. Jason Batemen is very similar, and there is a reason he CANNOT act in serious roles. I never watched...

    Motherless Brooklyn (2019)

    Lol don't worry, I expect Willis dies within 10 minutes and maybe has a couple of flashbacks. That way you barely notice him phoning it in to cash checks. I look at this with some faint hope that we go back to the Edward Norton of American History X and Fight Club, back when he was a joy to...

    Terminator (2019)

    We need RLM's Science Guy's interpretation of the Terminator timeline to interpret all this.

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    I am almost ashamed to point out the first and last are the same. I noticed not because of the tats or tits, but the shitty condition of the wall edges and the crappy microwave in the background. Also the three switches/thingies on the wall. Just one is in a mirror. I am shame.

    Valfaris

    I hate platformers in general but love the action RPG/boss fighting aspects of these hybrid games. I have been somewhat intrigued. The reviews say it is a bitch to see what is going on during a lot of fights, which you can easily conclude from watching the gameplay trailer. And that it is...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    This is an interesting point. The question is, ARE they going to keep quiet? With the government intimately involved in most (all?) major corporations in China, will they secretly keep investing in companies that defy their requests for censoring, or will they pull 'chute outright? Is there...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Evil is definitely the wrong word and pure hyperbole. I certainly attribute no malice to the man, nor do I think he is in cahoots with the Chinese dictatorship to oppress people. I DO think he is using what is essentially bribe money to secure exclusives to his store, and as I stated, I...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    I........wat!? Wasn't Epic Games store all China Numba Wan from the get go? Wasn't that the whole conspiracy that the Chinese were using it to watch you masturbate through your web cams or something? And Sweeney thinks this is going to turn-it-around for Epic Games Store? Jesus, I think I...

    The Netflix Thread

    There are a series of really great episodes where they go out through Wall Rose on a Scout mission that are VERY good - preceded by a couple of the talking episodes as they train as Scouts. I thought the balance of talky talky with action was just enough, but I could see someone losing...

    John Wick: Chapter 3 (2019)

    I liked Oz a lot, but after a while the prison rape just grinds you down. I barely recall much in the way of story threads aside from the rape.

    He's just Mayhem in insurance commercials now.

    The Netflix Thread

    Well I just finished watching the first season of Attack on Titan. I am in no way any kind of anime fan, I have watched Gantz.0 (best visual experience of all time, by the way), the old Macross stuff when I was a kid (I also read all the books) and that is pretty much it. I think I loved...

    Zombieland 2 (2019)

    So this is Zombieland 2 - The little girl has boobs now and we added a Millenial hipster/cuck so please watch our movie? I think it is hilarious reading in this thread how unlikable Eisenberg is. He works in very specific roles and I actually think this one is suited to him perfectly. Anyway...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Yeah I used to own a large pick-up and parked at the end of the lot at all times. Then you come back to your vehicle and some assbag parks beside you in the middle of no-man's-land. They do it on purpose. To rustle. Fuckers.

    Gemini Man (2019)

    100% Agree. But back then we were all in on the joke, actors AND audience. Last Action Hero being the most blatant example. Will Smith is not joking.

    Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020)

    That is a really interesting point. Bridesmaids, Spy/The Heat, shit like that, all comedies aimed at women. Romantic comedies similarly. And now that there are more women "nerds" there may be a market for comic book or sci-fi movies oriented to the same audience. But I feel like it is...

    Gemini Man (2019)

    This has to be the most self-indulgent, narcissistic (I tend to be redundant and redundant) project in a long time. Will Smith wants you to know he can still keep up with the young people. Hey, everyone, I was in the YouTube Rewind, remember, because I am popular and all the kids know who I...

    Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020)

    Good Lord y'all are so spot on - is there a single, intriguing thing in that trailer? Is there a........a theme? A bad guy? Jesus at this point it would be an improvement just to see generic bright light/laser shining into the sky that the anti-heroes have to oppose. I don't want to always...

    Cube World

    On the one hand, I am a little sad that I missed out on the original gameplay. The base design of the Alpha definitely appeals to my ARPG instincts and a progression system is the fundament of a great game. I've recently started playing Terraria again with a friend, and the progression system...

    Conan Exiles

    Ell o ell 16,500 that's hilarious. Yeah the bearers are notoriously the best generic "tanks" but those Relic Hunters (melee) have the 2H moveset/attacks making them, IIRC, overall better in combat. Not sure if bearers have any weapon's moveset or just basic attacks. At any rate, with a decent...

    Conan Exiles

    Go to the undead city. Grab some Relic Hunter Treasure Seeker thralls........profit. They are easy to get (you can stand on a pillar in one spot and burn one down with blunted arrows, have 7425 or so hps topped only by a handful of the best named Thralls. Every boss is easy with one of these...

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    I've been especially picky with movies of late, so take these comments with that in mind. I watched the opening sequence of the fight in the cab and the effects were so shitty and so obvious, and the massive-seeming, pregnant pauses between each important move and counter move was so...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Some of the great pleasures of commuting to work every day on the train: (1) Random, sneaky farters - that cloud of noxious gas lasts a little longer in enclosed spaces and moves slooooooowly (2) Entitled assholes thinking they are more important and in more of a rush than everyone else so they...

    Path of Exile

    One of the recent leagues taught me that I despise the trap/mines mechanic and will never play it again (arc mines to level 90). This league confirmed that I still don't like the summoner mechanics as well. I am not saying you can ONLY do the league with summoners, but it is easy if you do. I...

    Mortal Kombat (2021)

    Ermagerd that point at 0:47 where Scorpion starts his jump and the editor leaves a millisecond too much in and he looks like an idiot. I nearly spit out my coffee and had to rerun it hahahaha.

    You know you're getting old when.....

    Well, owning your home is crucial for ease of finances when you retire (IF you retire I guess haha) so consider yourself a success. I both hate my home and won't have it paid off when I hope to retire in 15 years or less, and the local home market sank into the shitter significantly since i...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    When you define the quality of your life experiences by the accumulation of chronic injuries. Let me see: Chronic lower back issues from one shitty-aligned shoulder press rep in the mid 90s. Shredded rotator cuffs from blocking giant linemen. Seemingly steady Achilles strains from too much...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    Over the last while I have had to look up YEET and YOLO. Fuck me. That being said I said the word meme to a coworker the other day and they had no idea what that was. So there are far worse people than us.

    Borderlands 3

    This is one of my RPG/gaming gripes/pet peeves. Making quest rewards scalable to your level means everyone will game the system and just put them off until the end. Why developers continue to include this in their games amazes me. If you put a quest in a specific area, fix the fucking reward...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Yeah - I work in the downtown core of a major urban center, so the commute would fucking kill me if I lived outside the city limits - this city's road system was designed for 1/3 of its current population so traffic is perpetually bad. Also, I am divorced so proximity to family and all that...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I have a neighbor on one side that is nearly a shut-in that I've seen three times since moving into this house several years ago. He's the kind of guy who actually mows his lawn right after a severe downpour - that shit is creepy as fuck. On my other side is a lovely older couple that wanted to...

    Rambo V

    This is why we can't have nice things anymore. Ford has been phoning it in for 2 decades now, how could this be remotely successful? He almost ruined Bladerunner 2 for me because he came to the set in jeans and a T-shirt and said "wardrobe, we don't need no stinking wardrobe!"

    Uncut Gems (2019)

    Damn. I hate Sandler on principle (mostly on the principle that he's made mad bank on taking vacations with his buddies and making crappy ensemble comedies with them while doing so) but this actually looks good, and he looks good in it.
