    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    The love story and the motivations of Solo were so poorly developed that it felt like I had missed the first half of a decent movie. They failed to strike any sort of balance between an overarching narrative and Solo's smuggling origin/exploits. On top of a really flat performance, the dude was...

    Altered Carbon

    Only watched the first two episodes but god damn the acting is so wooden. Does it ever improve?

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Wasn't this dude given acting lessons after being cast as Solo?

    Bright (2017)

    Will Smith discovering that he's a bright isn't supposed to be a revelation to the audience because as others have said, it's alluded to several times. We just didn't how he'd ultimately wield that power. I just don't understand why Nick never said anything given what he was told by the Shield...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I don't care that The Last Jedi lacks the Star Wars spirit or whatever. It's just a shitty movie. That's why I'm puzzled by the critical reception.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    This movie is a disaster. It's probably the director's fault, but the lines are delivered so poorly that I thought I was watching a workshop production at times. The outbursts from some of the characters are just fucking bizarre. I half expected Kylo Ren to yell, "Mom! Get out of my room!"...

    Altered Carbon

    Netflix and Amazon series are worth the subscriptions alone but Marco Polo was the worst by far. They somehow managed to turn one of the most fascinating periods full of political intrigue into the dullest show imaginable.

    Assassin's Creed Origins set in Egypt

    Narrative is half the appeal of modern games. This isn't Super Mario on NES.

    Everquest II

    Why did people hate this game again? It didn't really scratch the nostalgia itch for me but I thought it was pretty to look at and I enjoyed the reimagining of classic EQ zones.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Damn if this isn't the most fun I've had with a game in years. I absolutely hated the combat in the first installment so I'm glad they tweaked it a bit for the sequel. My only real complaint is that the game rewards a more physical approach to combat. Tactician mode can also be pretty punishing...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    So what's the population like now? I lost all desire to play after the HS/VP shit fest. Blows my fucking mind that the devs won't change these quests to accommodate the sheer number of people and griefing assholes.

    Your lack of self-awareness is almost as alarming as your facial hair, friend.

    I threatened to Dox and now I'm gone because I am a fucking retard.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Even if the weapon worked as intended, it would proc once every two fights. Procs are virtually useless in this game.

    Who said anything about posting stuff from this board?

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I don't think Abacab's employer would appreciate his inflammatory, racist remarks and his propensity for wasting people's time and money by being a total asshole in a video game.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Abacab had great fun disrupting my Princess Joleena spawn last night. If I were an ugly, maladjusted loser I'd probably do the same thing.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    So, it's my understanding that rogues are pretty useless until Kunark when their combat abilities are ramped up a bit. What makes them so bad in the classic era? Is item optimization worse on progression servers or something? I don't remember their having such a poor reputation back in the day...

    I just got this baby. How much should i sell it for? Cloak of Hazy Memories

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I just noticed that everyone gets the same DE illusion face and it's bugging me. You can change it temporarily but it reverts to default when you reapply. Is there a way to change it permanently? i could have sworn that your illusions were consistent with your natural form.

    What are some solid 1 handed weapons for a ranger aside from the usual yaks and mudman/brand combo? Also, 2handed weapons generate more dps than dual wielding correct?

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    When was The Hole originally added? I don't recall ever going there or seeing items from that zone when I played back in the day.

    Are people really paying 4 krono for crap like hooded black cloak?

    Playing this game for the sole purpose of RMT is pretty fucking sad.

    There's a guild called Take Yo Camp. I can't imagine what these fine, well-adjusted people are like in real life.

    Poll Save EQ

    Instances and boxing have completely undermined what was once the essence of everquest. Guilds had to cooperate for the health and stability of a server. Now every unemployed, socially inept fuckwad (faceless empire) has license to act like a tool because those relationships are no longer necessary.

    So is it Faceless Empire's policy to go anon while they grief people?

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    An army of Asian boxers invaded Hate last night and promptly used ShowEQ to steal all our mobs before training us. Boy oh boy am I glad Daybreak is on the ball when it comes to punishing these people.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    What sorcery do non-boxers use to get some of these camps for coveted items? Everywhere I go there's either 3 people waiting in front of me or 8 boxed mages show up as soon as a new pick opens.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Another pick rant. A guildie and I finally get a solb giant camp to ourselves in a pick with 9 people and thing closes in the middle of a fight. I guess you need a fucking box army to keep these things open.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Do people play on these servers for the sole purpose of selling their maxed out toons? Level 105 characters with epics and shit only net you a couple hundred bucks from what I can tell.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Several years ago, I took a trip down memory lane and there were ZERO people in any of the old world zones. I imagine that's why most people find the prospect of playing on a live server daunting.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Never had much of an issue finding a place in the major guk gamps. Then again, I've been pretty proactive in finding groups. I have, however, encountered a lot of petulant turds picking over to steal kills in every zone I've been to.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Christ almighty. Daybreak needs to do something about the way people switch picks. Got into a brand new Hole pick thinking my group was finally going to have a chance at some of these drops but nope. Boxed shitbirds immediately zone over into the jail camp and take over.

    Is the fbss wasted on a bard? I've always wanted one because I never managed to loot it during classic but I've been wrestling with the decision to sell it.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Krono sales are pretty paltry and definitely not worth the risk. You have to be pretty hard up for money if you think you're "making bank" doing this shit.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I'm partial to NBG but it's applied inconsistently like someone said. I've lost the fbss and ssoy to casters and haven't rolled on caster gear out of fear of alienating myself.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    The whole concept of deliberately camping items to exchange for krono is bizarre to me. Do these people have jobs?

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Is there a way to fuck up multi questing? Someone offered to submit a no drop item before I turn in the other components for a bard quest. What would happen if someone had given the npc an item hours earlier without receiving the reward?
