This was an amazing game that I would never have considered playing if I hadn’t read this thread. Thanks, forum bros. That ending… I haven’t been hit that hard since RDR1. I enjoyed the DLC. Seemed like a solid backstory and they took some of the main island mechanics to a higher level.

That guy sounds like he knows exactly what gay terminology he should use.

Lol wow! That escalated quickly.

Could you link to that post?

Watched this with the family, and we also liked it. Same vein of humor as the original and zero modern wokeness.

Thanks for this recommendation. I have been playing this quite a bit. Very easy to pick up and put down after just a few rounds as you progress through a random "roguelike" board or through the somewhat tedious stories.

This game should have been called Ni No Queue-ni! Please clap.

That reviewer has some odd aversion to the AI, which I actually enjoy. My toon farms things while I go through the 100 menu options and upgrade stuff. When I am done, I can kick in 4 hours of “AI mode” offline farming each day, which I use to grind collectibles or gold. I have never manually...

I like it so far. Day 6 and Level 40 is when it started getting a little grindy. The main quest mobs are 47 and the game warns me I need 20% more CP (rating) to advance. I am fine running repeatable side quests and collections for stat increases though. They do a good job of notifying you when...

Goodreads I listened to the audiobook. The story and narrator were both fantastic. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys science (real science, not the Following kind). I went in expecting a variation of The Martian, but there are large twists early on that make this story unique.

Isn’t the chick on Terminus Salvor Hardin? I get confused by all the male characters they recast as females. I swear I thought I heard them mention that name at the very end of the opening scene in episode 1.

By the numbers, they had 105 hours of scarcity pricing near the $9,000/MWh offer cap and roughly 50 GW of load. That equates to $50 billion being paid for power over 5 days. You are right that some, likely more than half, was hedged with power swaps and heat rate call options (HRCOs). This...

I was disappointed with this game and glad to finally be done with it. The companion storylines were shallow. Their perks were carbon copies of mundane improvements, and the main character's were not much better. The loot and mod systems were equally uninspired. I give it a generous 6/10 -...

What a shame. This game was good times back when South Korea was in its prime.

You mean the guy who she shot dead 30 years ago? It kinda makes sense to me that she now knows he is a host. You think she holds a grudge for him playing his Chief of Behavior loop all those years? Wow.

Read the retarded Ubisoft thread and this thread. I have followed Utnayan’s antics since before games were too brown. I don’t particularly care for his opinions, but this ban was bullshit. Voted yes to overturn.

What do they have wrong exactly, other than Closing being more of a done deal than Securing, perhaps?

I am trying to come up with a scenario where someone could be a) up with their my kids at 7 AM on a Saturday and b) have time to play video games. The only one I could come up with was that you stayed up all night, smoking, drinking, and playing ME:A. Then, as soon as the kids woke up, you quit...

I wouldn't put it off because of that. Find some homeless guy and graciously bestow the daily wears unto him for positive Karma - enjoy your augmented eyeballs one year sooner. Queue Elton John "Circle of Life".

Man, I thought my -5.25 was bad. Glad to hear it went OK. Almost 10 years later, my wife and I both still talk about how awesome it is to not worry about contacts or glasses.

I had ICL almost 9 years ago with touch-up Lasik. They gave me a happy pill that dissolves under the tongue (Valium?) just before I went in. I was awake, but really didn't give a shit during the procedure - despite being super anxious going into it. As mentioned above, dry eyes and halos at...

How tragic.

Was the cat OK?

I have never played a Tales game before, but I am ~10 hours into Berseria and I really like it. I thought the action-based combat would turn me off, but it is enjoyable - better than FFXV.

That $2 million would be worth $700k in today's dollars... just saying.

There is a difference between a "working capital cushion" to absorb large, unexpected expenses and an "emergency fund" which is meant to cover a period of unemployment. Some of those credit sources will shut off as soon as the bank learns of your loss of income. But even if they didn't, would...

My biggest concern is whether there will be enough fresh water to counteract all of the salt created when they: a) tax your retirement accounts to plug holes in Social Security or b) make SS more progressive so that you don't get any distributions, since you saved enough on your own I am not...

Uber Uberest

Jesus the last minute of that trailer had me rolling.

It makes total sense to ask for help here. There are so many crazy experiences to draw from, maybe one of them will help find his brother. Has your brother been trying to go without sleep for long stretches of time? If so, then you could check the local post office for reports of mailbox...

Unless you really want to play the best RPG ever made, you can skip Witcher 3.

Joke's on him - you spent a third of that on Pantheon kickstarter.

This is such an over-used cliche. I know of at least a dozen marriages that resulted from intercompany romances, and less than half of them ended in bitter divorces - IE about the same rate as normal relationships. Definitely more common than "very rarely" for them to succeed.

I used the cash for clunkers program to get $1500 for my perfectly serviceable car, and enjoy the disgust on the dealers face as he knew he could have resold it for 4 times that. My employer also got >$50 million of a DOE-backed (AKA Solyndra-esque) loan to build a solar plant, which kept me...

Are they introducing new non-cutscene content with NG+ or was there something too hard to beat with characters leveled normally? NG+ made sense in Chrono Trigger where you could take different paths to multiple endings. It also made sense in Disgaea where you were not even meant to experience...

Holy shit that terrible analogy deserves a terrible pun.

Definitely not surprised. I didn't read the links because I am still in Chapter 3 (20+ hours played), but there are plenty of tell-tale signs that it hurried to make a 2016 holiday release. The sidequests are really shallow. I mean they go a step beyond WoW bear-asses, where you ignore the...

What are PMS medications?

There is an option for Map Point in the Auto menu where you can just free cursor place where you want Ignis to drive. It tends to abort if you select a spot slightly off-road, but otherwise it has been an OK way to go "I want to explore... here" and then flip thru albums until you get there...
