    Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey

    Meh. They took the 'figure it all out yourself' thing just far enough to detract from the game a bit I think. A game like Subnautica got it more or less just right, a few tiny breadcrumbs to point you along but you still have to explore and work though it on your own. Here, I had no idea how...

    Bad Boys for Life (2020)

    Hard pass. The directors are two nobodies with zero real directing experience (let alone directing a big budget action movie) and the first two Bad Boys movies were during Bay's prime before he started phoning it in.

    I've seen some weird fucking shit in my life but I think the time someone linked me the gallery for Ishu Aigan was the first time I really felt the need to bleach my brain.

    The idea that 1967 wasn't a long ass time ago is also fucking laughable. Surprised that wikipedia article isn't chiseled onto a stone tablet.

    What? The sequel came out in 1977

    Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey

    It's intredasting but flawed. Like how your tribe just randomly resettles to a new spot when you evolve, and while I understand they wouldn't stay in the same place for hundreds of thousands of years, many of the spots they choose are just wildly unsafe. Like one spot in the jungle has your...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    If The Phantom Menace is a Cat 5 hurricane, The Last Jedi is one of the apocalyptic super-storms from Day After Tomorrow.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    And it came as a total surprise because the comic version of Miles Morales is complete garbage just like the rest of the woke trash that has the comics division circling the drain again. And the numbers are quite clear that Marvel lost tons of readers when their comics turned into a diversity...

    Ancestors - The Humankind Odyssey

    So anyone playing this? Very hands off survival/crafter (very minimalist crafting) where you attempt to guide a group of hominids from 10m BCE to 2m BCE (which is when the game ends since at that point they likely cant justify how simple the crafting is anymore). Has a lot of flaws and I'm not...

    Even if they mostly rely on imports they do grow some stuff of their own and saltwater just nopes all over that.

    Borderlands 3

    If item rarity is anything like the previous games, having a PC makes it much easier to farm for certain part/prefix combos like a Flying Sandhawk of the desired element (or any of the broken quest rewards from Scarlett DLC). Have to jump through a lot of hoops (and maybe even need a second...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I want to say they've both moved but there have been so many trainwreck stories in here that it's hard to remember if that's accurate and who moved first if so.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    If anything it's the fans who need fewer pre-season games to they have less time to build up dread about how bad the refs are going to be during the rest of the season.

    Weather

    I don't have any hurricane experience but I've installed solar panel racks and I feel like the kind of wind that would tear them off a roof would probably be doing so much damage to your house that the solar panels would be the least of your concerns.

    I mean, is the water just cleaner at whatever end of the lake you live near? Cause I sure as shit wouldn't get into that water anywhere in Illinois no matter what the temperature was.

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    I liked Star Traders before it was cool! I bought it in EA based purely on the fact that it was by the Trese Brothers, who did Templar Battleforce. I pick it back up every now and then, and yeah it's pretty crazy how much content there is in the game and how rapidly they churn out little...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'm honestly fine with that if it ensures that Benioff, Weiss, and Johnson don't get to make Star Wars movies. The IP needs to be quarantined at this point.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    You also have to remember that since you only share the negative stuff, you've painted a picture for us that your marriage is basically already over. Whether that's accurate or not, any advice you get from this thread will probably be based on that premise.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Isn't it just Han who says that? I mean they clearly know who the Jedi are on Tatooine during Phantom Menace, and who they were on Lothal at the beginning of Rebels. Both planets are outer rim backwaters, although Lothal is a quite a bit more civilized than Tatooine. So they've either...

    I mean really it was my fault for letting myself get sucked into a political discussion in discord...again. More on topic, I just found an XIV Conquest on prism freeport's high end seller and my inner pokemon trainer forced me to buy it. I've also restarted Diable 2-3 times now and they...

    Not just a 'nazis are everywhere' type, but a fucking furry who thinks calling Antifa terrorists (topical to a conversation being had in an off-topic room of the discord) is "gaslighting trying to paint antifascists as dangerous terrorists and sneering at modern fascism". Gaslighting being one...

    I honestly almost find the bland 'take absolutely no risks and just remake a new hope' approach to force awakens be even worse than the offensively bad garbage of last jedi. Almost.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Generally speaking, interquels are even worse than sequels. Rebels worked because it was focused on new characters, with existing SW characters mostly being single episode cameos. Clone Wars worked because it was exploring something that the movies really glossed over (the Clone Wars themselves...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Rogue One was fucking awful, gtfo. Not Last Jedi bad of course, but it was not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination. The closest time any part of that movie came to being good was when they snuck in easter eggs for Rebels.

    also a big reveal like that this early has to be a trolljob or a twist, which itself is still a kind of spoiler. A reveal like that this far from the release reeks of either stupidity or desperation.
