I really have no idea where they are going to end this season at this point. They seem to have a solid plan but damn if this isn't practically torture for the viewers at this point.

If someone wanted to read the Wheel of Time Sanderson stuff but had given up on WoT after far too much braid tugging and lack of plot forward motion would it be acceptable to Wiki-Cliff notes ones way to the first of the Sanderson Wheel novels?

Does anyone not use a crit dam green gem in a weapon? If the system has become an IQ check where is is certain that you want a socket above all else and furthermore that you want a green gem in that socket then there is a big problem.

The actor seemed shocked when they told him he was Hydra, so I don't think he wanted out. That having been said Triplett is a much better character and so makes for a ready Ward replacement.

I do like the theory I just read that there will be multiple safehouses each with a Patton Oswalt waiting for them. Would be kinda kooky and a way to introduce the Life Model Decoy

It has been years since I was at a Chik-fil-A so perhaps things have changed, but I do recall the nuggets being overwhelmingly bad when compared to the sandwich. To the point where I wondered how it could be from the same company.

Patton Oswalt kinda got done like a bitch though... I was figuring that with the super lie detector that he was very much aware of Ward and was doing something extra sneaky to keep him under control... nope! Now next week it looks like they lose their brand new secret base too. If they do...

What... the... Fuck. Did this suddenly turn into Saint's Row?

Here's the big question I have: How does Actiblizzard monetize Diablo now? Obviously the RMAH was there to provide a steady source of income and that did not fare very well. Now they have lots of new box sales for the RoS expansion, but I very much doubt that is enough to satisfy them.

They already said that there are no paper powers as a result of Paper Trail. We get four new jackets and the hat/mask. They explained that it took too much effort to create the art for and balance the different powersets that are already in the game. I'm a bit bummed as a result because it...

It looks like an insecticon

They seem to be turning The Inquisitor into a Cmdr Shepard style person with special abilities as the result of surviving an encounter with a plot device. Problem is that the Origins character already was special, and then the Hawke character was as well. They keep recasting the hero in this...

Release Date October 7th Looks like Dragon Age: Rift to me... Scott Hartsman should feel flattered.

In the couple weeks I played 2.0 before the expansion launched I had great luck with legendaries, since hitting 70 however I have had TERRIBLE luck and I am really suffering as a result. I'm reliant on Exploding Palm chain reactions to do pretty much anything efficiently and I have none of the...

Word to the wise about weight loss and high fat diet : Gallbladder. Quick weight loss plus a diet high in protein and natural fats are what leads to the development of sludge in the gallbladder which then crystallizes into gallstones which can obstruct the opening from or move into and block...

For many years of "New Who" the series began in the Spring right around Easter and yet here we are without even a solid start date to the new series I cant help but feel that after all the momentum from the 50th including the end of Matt Smith's era with the xmas special that they are taking...

Everything I read of their alpha notes makes me think that Mistweaver monks are totally fucked in WoD. It all reads like a knee jerk reaction to jab-jab-uplift that results in completely removing all the unique aspects of the Monk as a healer. Hopefully I'll get tagged for access before too...

"Cisco" Ramon is also known as Vibe, hence the inclusion of the word into his dialogue as a nod. The chick is Killer Frost who is usually a Firestorm villain but maybe they are using her as a new Captain Cold to bring a bit more gender equity into the situation. The equipment they used...

The quest tracker addon not working is a pretty big deal, also noticeable is that the level 15 Adventure is buggy as hell and simply non functional. There are lots of decisions you make while levelling your character with respect to AMPs and abilities that are an IQ check (such as AMPs...

Got a hankering to load this up again after PAX (they had a big display last year but were absent this year entirely) and I am honestly shocked at how little has changed from the launch until now. They added two "modules" of content that seem to be worthy of a monthly update rather than...

Hail Hydra!

The "future" part all has Sentinels that look like Nimrod, everything that takes place in the 70s will have more traditional looking Sentinels.

So something that has been bugging me, especially with the WoD changes: 1) DPS is more or less intended to be normalized across the DPS specs over a suitably long enough baseline (some more bursty, others more sustained). 2) Some specs are highly mobile while others are rooted to the...

They talked today at PAX about how they wanted the full budget of the presequel to go to content and not "learning how to draw triangles on new hardware". I do get the impression that Borderlands 3 will be next gen however. And in typical Gearbox generosity everyone at the panel discussion...

Wildstar drives me crazy because it always looks like something that I VERY MUCH want to play... and yet the reality of the game leaves me wanting. Every iteration of the classes has made me like them less and less, especially as the game seems less about whatever abilities you actually are...

The thing is they used dynamic phasing to the extent that there really wasn't the kind of massive competition for quest mobs that you might otherwise have thought. I quested the whole way with my mage at launch and never really felt cramped nor completely isolated. The bigger issue was the...

No test this weekend due to PAX I suspect. Next weekend there is one though (odd since its Easter and all)

This game hates me. In the past 3 days I've gotten 5 two handed swords and both a cloak and a onehanded crossbow...on my monk. Since the guys I play with have easily outstripped me gear wise I decide to gamble some shards and end up with over half of them being goddamn blue.

Blizzard's schtick is similar to Apple, take something and make it as completely user friendly as possible and thereby guarantee marketshare. I think they have their work cut out for them with this game simply because the nature of MOBAs have not at all been casual friendly to date. Sure LoL...

The end sequence of Winter Soldier where they show what all the ex-S.H.I.E.L.D. types are going off to do seemed stupid to me. Yeah sure bring it out into the open and let everyone know that this thing exists... but what the hell do you do about the day-to-day S.H.I.E.L.D. stuff? The...

There are some Disney executives laughing their asses off on the way to Scrooge McDuck's money vault for sure. The end-credits sequence for Winter Soldier left me scratching my head though.

Yeah but Maria Hill is now working for Stark Industries and isn't part of S.H.I.E.L.D. anymore. That was included as part of the "everyone has to go do something else now" section at the end of the movie. Which left me scratching my head because it didn't make a lot of sense in the broader...

Shield vs Hydra is a much more interesting premise than Shield vs mystery of the week. Then again after the movie it seems like there is not much of a shield left.

How does anyone not play as Claptrap in this?!?! So if Gearbox is not working on this and they said they haven't given one actual thought to what happens after Borderlands 2...what is Randy Pitchford actually working on right now? Is the main studio completely consumed with Homeland reboot?

They upgraded me to admitted as soon as I inquired about it and mumbled something about that being standard practice after 24 hours... and yet they have literature they hand out that says otherwise so I am more than a little suspicious. The practitioners themselves seemed genuinely confused...

Nope it's a room, in this case on the 10th floor of one of the main buildings which is also their transplant recovery floor. So it's not an ER nook-type room but rather completely intermixed with the admitted gen pop if you were. They talk about it explicitly in the "welcome" guide that was...

So one day into my new Obamacare plan (virtually identical to my Romneycare) and my gallbladder decided to declare a revolution against the proliteriate. Will be interesting to see what the final bill ends up being considered the ER visit, hospital stay etc. Noticed something interesting...

Well the Monk changes, specifically Mistweaver, sound grade-A retarded. Emphasis has been placed on the healing spheres with new ways for them to get placed on the ground and enhanced effect... shame that NO ONE EVER FUCKING USES THEM. Soothing mist and Crackling Jade Lightning no longer...

Malcolm must be working with Slade

Isn't he too... old?
