    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Wasn't last patch of MoP Timeless Isle, and WoD had Tanaan Jungle (also introduced Mythic dungeon difficulty) in addition to their final raids? I didn't play during either MoP or WoD but from what I heard Timeless Isle was awesome and a lot more content than these assaults/Visions seem to be...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Considering it's about all we've got, I enjoy the idea of trying to do a little min maxing (although not on the insane level of some). First thing you buy from the tree basically quadruples what you can do in there with the 3 orbs.

    That's which one I specifically remembered her from, the first contact one where Riker was in the hospital.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Remember that bad Troi episode where she gets kidnapped and altered to appear Romulan because they need her to act as one of the Tal Shiar to help smuggle spies back to the Federation? I swear the actress who played the Romulan captain of that ship has had other guest starring roles on Trek...

    Any elite mob you kill will drop currency, and rares (starred mobs) will as well of course. Had friends stay in their daily for 30 min plus just wracking up as much as they can.

    The daily vision is all about staying in as long as you can and killing enough stuff for more currency to purchase upgrades at the research thing in the Heart for Horrific runs. Some people aren't running any of their Horrifics until they've done more daily visions this week in order to have as...

    The Visions are fun now b/c they're new, once you're clearing all 5 bosses every run with masks and what not and cloak upgrades are time gated to 1 a week, I can see them getting boring, and they're really the only content outside of the raid.

    I thought a great deal of BFA's issues were a too short/bad beta? Obviously if they're not listening to players or players aren't giving good feedback, it won't really matter.

    So Picard is only set in the continuity with Romulus destroyed and not Vulcan. Interesting.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm sure stuff like complete world level scaling still takes away from time working on the new expansion, though. It's also a little ironic when 8.2 and 8.3 were much later than 7.2 and 7.3 and that's the only major factor for 8.3 to Shadowlands being a shorter time frame. Makes me worry the...

    Wasn't Vulcan also destroyed in this timeline? Curious why it only mentions the destruction of Romulus as causing some sort of immigration issue.

    You're missing some patches there. Legion had a 7.3.5, I'm sure a few other expansions had patches after the ones listed, as well.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Still think you would have had all the people like many of us in this thread that avoided Solo and TROS like the plague after TLJ cause the biggest dropoff. That's why TLJ didn't have the legs that TFA did, and that's why Solo and Rise both bombed to an even greater level.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    The Rose/finn stuff sounded like another dumb sidequest. Yeah stealing a Star Destroyer sounds cool (if really improbable unless the slaves they were liberating had a lot of skills hiding), but "lighting a beacon on Coruscant to get others to help the Resistance" sounds weird. Is it a...

    I'll say the Visions stuff has interesting mechanics, and I like how you can build towards it being more solo or group oriented depending on your play style. But there's virtually no content. You do the entry quest, complete the assaults, do a couple visions and you're basically done...

    While I'm not sure this is a good thing, even if the game had 50 hours of content I bet you some people in this thread would have it finished in 6 days.

    I think we have a good idea how it plays out. But pretending it isn't a unique situation he hasn't faced before just makes you look like...well you. This thread is for people who told you that Derrick Henry might go bananas in the playoffs, and that Pat Mahomes is still the guy you'd pick to...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Or maybe Brady actually being a free agent for the first time in his career means there are actually some variable outcomes from which direction the Pats choose to go, and they will have a big effect going forward. Don't even know your team's own free agency situation? Sad.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Tannehill could have run it up on you guys, but they clearly knew they'd have to rest his arm for the eventual match up with Mahomes. Win or lose, he's going to have to throw it more than he did against either Pats or Ravens. They just knew Henry alone would smash your team. Dynasty might be...

    Look at his record with Florida and Vegas. Is he just real abrasive that people don't like him?

    If it wasn't such a thing that you had to get it done day 1 or potentially fall behind (unless the catch up is that good?), it would be better. I enjoyed the quests for what they were.

    While Winter's Bone may have put her on the radar for people inside the industry, it didn't turn her into a star for people buying tickets. Winter's Bone made like $16M total at the box office.

    I don't think it helped that her or her agent picked some shitty roles for her. Mother? Red Sparrow? Passengers is only barely watchable because of Pratt for the most part (honestly the only one of the three that was an idea with any mainstream appeal, too). I guess technically she was stuck...

    Supposedly GMBM approached him about 3 years but Nick wanted 5 to finish his career here. I think by year 5 he'll clearly not be the same player, although I don't think his visions/passing skills will decline at all. Jumbo Joe still effective at his age because of his playmaking. I don't...

    Exaggerating a bit, I do think Samsonov is playing better right now, but pretty sure Holtby gets an easy win tonight, too. Other then refs evening up the calls a bit in the 2nd period, Carolina didn't do a whole lot tonight.
