    Sorry on that front, but too much fake and gay especially with Microsoft in the room now with this shit. Their hatred of Obsidian for making the best entry in the post FPS franchise is irrational and costing them fans, but they are intent on destroying their own IP rather than admitting they...

    Fallout

    The "they changed the lore" edge lords are all retarded. I am a bonofied expert on the fallout lore (and was even friends with one of the leads on FNV) so believe me when I say I was scrutinizing shit for them changing the core lore. Everything they did in the show does not conflict with the...

    Fallout

    Everyone seems to forget that if this takes place shortly after FNV (seems very likely) and they are going with the fall of NCR ending from FNV, the NCR had a restored working power grid in the area around Shady Sands (shown in the end credits of FO2 and mentioned in FNV). So the more likely...

    Fallout

    Given the reactor tech the have, its pretty clear they would have the technical capability, especially if Robco, Poseidon Energy, ect were in cahoots with them.

    Fallout

    @Caliane The Muldover stuff is where the bulk of the flaws of the show and plot holes are concentrated. I hope they explain some of it in S2, but with the character being dead it seems unlikely. The biggest issue for me is her surviving as a non ghoul to the present time was never talked...

    Fallout

    Well if you look at the games and show, there are three possible starts to WW3. All of them revolve around the vaults to some degree. In the OG games and cannon, they talk about how the threat of WW3 lingered for so long that people became numbed and complacent to it. A lot of people who...

    This is accurate. The super mutants were basically sterile, like everything else made with the FEV.

    Fallout

    I honestly thing @GuardianX might not have played the games. The whole core idea of the setting of the games was a fucked up alternate time line where the world in general (and USSA in particular) never advanced culturally out of the 1950s. Thats fundamental to the tone and setting of the...

    Fallout

    What about the season finale is pissing people off exactly? I mean it felt a bit rushed and they did not really explain anything with the female antagonist and how she ended up in her present situation, but aside from that I thought it was pretty decent. Very on pitch for the actual setting...

    Fallout - New Vegas

    What Gav said. I replay the base New Vegas and DLC every couple years on my PS3, even though I need to restart it periodically because it still has a memory leak issue. Actual in game not bug related criticisms for it would be the overland areas could be a little more filled in with things and...

    ITs a dyke, a skinny butch one at that. No amount of made up bullshit woke words will change reality on that, Mr Orwell.

    Fallout

    I honestly am starting to think he did not play the games much and may not have watched much of the show. Aside from the butch alphabet squire lesbian, the woke shit was actually really minimal and things you would come across in the actual games. They elements of the world were very faithful...

    Rate Movies You've Recently Watched.

    Wife and I actually rewatched Repo Man as well this weekend. All time classic movie. Then she wanted to watch Damsel, which while not complete shit was aggressively mediocre with what is normally top tier casting choices. I felt like I was watching a Uwe Boll tax write-off movie. Saw the new...

    Goodbye Earth

    Searching for a Friend for the End of the World is probably the best movie or show on this topic. But basically, if the world knew it would be complete chaos before Giant Meteor came down to take the oath of office, at least in the cities. Just take a look at how Katrina played out for a good...

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    First one was a masterpiece that pretty much came from out of nowhere. I am willing to give this one a go. Trailer looks unique and sort of gives me Brazil vibes mixed with All that Jazz for the performance parts. I will take a musical exploration of society glorifying insanity over the...

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    This. This game was DOA even before it ever left the planning phase simply because of the parties involved in its development.

    3 Body Problem

    Time stamped the relevant part. He is basically talking about the expansion of the universe changing. The only extra wrinkle in there is the concept of space time bubbles which are pure theory for the most part. I am explaining it in simpler terms. I can pull sources but it appears you are...

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    Alloy was an attractive ginger in the first game. They went out of their way to darken her hair and derp up her appearance. Same thing with Gigantor in TLoU 2, if you saw the actress she was supposedly modeled after. And then they went back and uggoed up Ellie and a bunch of other characters...

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    Not really, unless you are going to say I am a homophobe for wanting to watch a half naked chick beat the shit out of things instead of staring at man ass in games like Dragons Dogma or similar as my free time escapist entertainment. And the other part is as Vorph touched on the quality of the...

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    A long fucking game with a mostly silent protagonist and no woke shit, I am gonna play a female avatar so I dont have to stare at man ass all 100 hours of the fucking game. First person actively voice acted protagonist? Yeah probably going to go with something I can identify with. There are...

    3 Body Problem

    Think of it in these terms. We know we are moving away from the center of the universe and have been for a while. Whats more, there are galactic clusters moving from it in all vectors from the center and we are only able to observe the ones moving our general direction because of this. Here...

    3 Body Problem

    I don't know if this is true. The effort to make another planet, even one with very close parameters to ours, remotely colonizable is very difficult. I mean our own species runs into fertility issues just by moving to higher altitudes on the surface. Slight variations in gravity, radiation...

    3 Body Problem

    Relativistic speeds greater than c exist. It is why the sky is mostly black at night. In an infinite universe with infinite stars every single millimeter of the sky would be bright white. But because we are moving away from most of the observable universe at a combined value greater than C...

    Star Wars: Outlaws

    That aggregator of shit they are involved in is the first thing I got from Steam in years. Totally worth it. Every game they have been even slightly involved in has been a giant shitpile with woke garbage crammed in.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Four Kings is just a DPS test. If you can burn down the spawns fast enough so you are not fighting multiples, you win, period end of sentence. O and S is tricky with the pair and timing, especially if you are trying to get the Ornstein drop from the fight. Plus when the game community is...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I do the same thing in Heide Tower for XP and also for the materials. Plus thats an area I typically use a reset item on because its not that much harder in NG+ and the second time drops from it are pretty nice. The dragon is actually fairly easy if you get in close and know to run away when...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    DS2 is really two games. The base parts, everything gets raped by dark magic and lightning. The expansions, most shit is very resistant to magic but is somewhat vulnerable to one of the physical damage types. Also remember that DS2 has mobs go extinct if you kill them enough times (unless you...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    The Eternal Wakestone is a res entire town item, probably meant as an out if you let the plague go off. You can also get a working copy from the forgery guy, but its stupidly expensive. My advice on the Sphinx quest for casuals is to do the two easy ones that give you a port crystal and allow...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I know you are edge lording, but the core story idea is interesting and the main play loop of exploring while farming up levels/stuff is very satisfying. The difficulty fall off (especially if you main a sorcerer or mystic knight) is probably the biggest issue, with the end game being too brief...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Dark Arisen is a long playthrough, because its the base game with the Everfall farm loop and two deep runs to the bottom of Bitterrock Isle. Even if you know exactly what to do, its a pretty long play. This also presumes you don't get turbofucked by a Grim Reaper appearance at the wrong time...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Finished it. Overall liked it and if the inevitable DLC is on par with Dark Arisen this is an all time great game.... BUT... As of now, the most fun part of the game is an endgame on a limited timer. And sadly the timer does not matter, because if you are even moderately prepared you will...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I treated this like the first game, basically farming mobs with shit XP when leveling vocations and earning most of my levels as my preferred stat gain class. For my mele based pawn, that meant maxing all the non spell using vocations then spending nearly all of her leveling time as a warrior...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    He had his whole leveling up side quest montage as the B story. Zilla really only works for fights (the Coliseum bed was a nice joke though) and has always worked best as a force of nature the protagonists have to work around somehow (see Minus 1), while kong has actual emotional reactions so...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Automation is the new buzz word for useless managers to jerk off over when they read about it in Sky Mall Magazine. It CAN be tremendously beneficial, if you use proper planning and invest sufficiently into it. The issue is every company wants the end results and to say they are using "machine...
