    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Damn, just finished playing drums for the day too. Maybe tomorrow I'll pay tribute.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    I just remembered that. She said she was raped on a boat or something but didn't elaborate. Maybe it was "suicide" then?

    Wow, suicide maybe?

    VisionQuest

    Every time I see this thread I think it's going to be a TV series based on the Vision Quest movie with Matthew Modine, and every time I'm disappointed that it's just more marvel slop. Seems like @Dr.Retarded had the same thought too. Apparently I only ever open the thread, see what it is, and...

    Geology, Earthquakes and Volcanos

    So I hate to say it in so many threads, but it's possible this is the "birth pains." I know people will tell me I'm nuts, but I'm okay with that.

    Silo

    That episode was pretty painful to watch. The comment about the Congressman really nails it, where we had like 20 minutes of them just sitting in a car where nothing interesting happened. Plus we're back to drawing out the Silo storyline without a whole lot of forward momentum. I also think...

    Everquest Legends

    It's definitely not an emu. It's got significantly less content than any emu I've ever played.

    Everquest Legends

    Stop being a poor. It's worth it for how much fun you'll have! Sure, you're going to be in it for like $300 by the time Kunark is out, but it's cheaper than groceries.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Cool? I'm still not sure how that justifies an annual price that would basically amount to the same as every major game release you'd see in an entire year?

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    This is why I keep saying these monthly subscriptions for MMOs with features from 20+ years ago (this and EQL) are obscene (and you add in box price and cash shop with EQL and, well, you know). What the fuck justifies that kind of price, outside of idiots here whose only retort is "what are you...

    Geology, Earthquakes and Volcanos

    Video is apparently from a Guatemala earthquake, which I somehow missed happening between the Venezuela one and Colombia one.

    Silo

    Well they decided to cram all the interesting, plot moving stuff into this single episode after 3 episodes of dog shit. I don't know why they do this. Spread it out so I don't start hating your show midway through the season.

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)

    Went to check cause I was thinking that song was "kind of old," thinking within the last decade or so. Apparently they haven't even released an album since 2014 (Happy Idiot was from that album). Wolf Like Me is from 2006. Where do the years go? What the fuck, man?

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    It's funny reading the comments. I went and watched that Disclosure documentary last week and they said the same. "The President is temporary." And yet, all classification is delegated from the power of the President. But we've got bureaucrats who say, actually, it's our program and we decide...

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    This is only vaguely RLM related, and I doubt many here watch Big Brother, but this week they had a competition that seems inspired by RLM. At least to me.

    Everquest Legends

    A game with 27 years of content and there's too few leveling options at any range?

    Home buying thread

    My father in law did just that at my brother-in-law's place. They had installed an outdoor shower for the pool, and he's like, why not add a toilet so you don't have to go inside? Same deal too, no roof or anything.

    Everquest Legends

    Same here. But I refuse to support the monetization scheme they've laid out for this game. When they get rid of the monthly subscription I might consider playing this.

    Everquest Legends

    That's where I'm curious. So essentially is there a method to do any race/class combo at some point through unlocking it in game? From what people were talking about earlier, it didn't sound like you could (once you lock in things like primary race or diety, you're stuck?).
  20. Gravel

    Everquest Legends

    But...isn't that basically a core feature of this? If shit is locked behind a paywall for you to play certain class/race/diety combinations, it limits what you can actually do. Where the only way you can is to pay money? Granted I'm just reading this thread, so no clue if that's the case.

    The Odyssey (2026)

    From what I've seen, Catholics don't take the Bible literally in any sense. Everything is an allegory and the entire thing is fulfilled.

    Wow, are you saying kowtowing to shitlibs never works because you're never pure enough for them?

    Tuner (2026)

    Yeah, it was okay. Very predictable, and as far as a "heist" movie it's pretty lackluster. But the acting was good, and the plot wasn't terrible. I'd say it's worth watching over a lot of other crap out there, but nothing remarkable.

    Silo

    It's not just her best friend. It's literally all her friends. Even her adopted mother (or whatever that lady is). "If you don't remember me, I may as well act like you don't exist." It's just terrible writing.

    Silo

    3 episodes into this season and whatever interest I had after the first two seasons is almost completely gone. It kind of reminds me of the writing on From, but without any of the interesting mystery box stuff...so just bad dialogue and characters who don't interact with each other like actual...

    Everquest Legends

    Well then shit, everyone should stop complaining about $15 to unlock a race or class. I mean, it's not even that much money, right? Yeah, now you're in it for a $20 box price, $15 a month, and you've spent $400 on MTX, but you spend more than that on groceries a month, so it's a good value.

    Everquest Legends

    You know it won't be. You've got all these people in here defending it on a nearly 3 decade old game with a box price and monthly subscription. When your customer base cares so little about their own money, why wouldn't you bleed them dry?

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    Really? Watching that reminds me of a good TV show that's dragged on way too long. It's on season 8 and all the good characters are either gone or Flanderized, and they just kind of lost the plot. It a lot of "member-berries" where they just show you a bunch of characters to try to build...

    The Odyssey (2026)

    It's kind of weird how defensive you seem to be about the movie. Like people criticizing it is somehow a personal attack on you.

    So who's the next Home Alone 2 cast member to go? Joe Pesci, Uncle Frank, or Tim Curry? Guess Trump is also an option, eh?

    The Westies

    Great post. This is how it works. People will defend it as "well they didn't entirely replace the cast" or "it wasn't all DEI wokester stuff" (see The Odyssey thread right now). But it's just pervasive enough for you to start accepting it. Then they push it a little further. It's bizarre that...

    I'm confused. Are you saying right wingers are so outraged about the race swaps that they'll pay to see it out of spite?

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    What I said not even two weeks ago. If your entire continuity between movies is fucking 30 second snippets that occur after the movie, is it even continuity anymore? Seems like lazy writing at best.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    As it was in the days of Noah... The irony of the video posted before that, where he says "why didn't God tell us" followed by "this renders Christianity as false" is great. The Bible literally does lay this all out. There's going to be a massive falling away of the church (which arguably has...

    I'm glad you mentioned it. There's something I couldn't pinpoint that was really off, and I was distracted by all the obvious stuff (actors, script) that I hadn't noticed how terrible the costumes are.

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    Yeah, the problem with this game is it's like 5-6 months between tests. Hard to get any hype built around the game with that type of infrequency.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    It seems like the public already lost interest in this whole UFO/UAP disclosure thing. Not even sure it lasted a week. It was just more giant wet fart of hype with nothing actually three. Which seems like a trend with this administration.

    Everquest Legends

    They're wiping all of this? So you're paying a box price and sub for something that's getting wiped? That's also you testing the game for them? I'm amazed people are defending this monetization still.

    Not that this is really the thread for this type of warning, but my sister-in-law's brother lost his eye working a fireworks show maybe 15 years ago. Granted, he was one of the ones setting them off and it was an accident, so not quite the same, but shit can be dangerous even if you know what...
