    Berserk

    As a die-hard fan of the original series, the movies are pretty bad. I mean, it's nice to see everything with improved animation and sound, but it's a summary of the story. It's like GoT condensed into 3 movies. Ugh. Anywho, does this pick up right after the events of the series, or somewhere...

    Gotham

    Ugh, it's getting more and more ridiculous. Priceless artifacts in an above ground grave anyone could break into with a crowbar...really??? So many retarded things happening I'm not sure I can take it anymore.

    Wii U

    It does look a bit dated, but who cares? Nintendo has always placed gameplay over anything else. And that's literally the only reason I own this system. If you're truly concerned about graphics you're in the wrong thread.

    I'll be buying it for sure.

    DOOM

    Well hopefully the new UT coming out will do the old ones justice. UT2k4 was the only shooter I was truly competitive at. Instagib CTF and deathmatch I was consistently in the top 3. Now I'm so overwhelmed by all the crap thrown in modern shooters I don't even bother anymore.

    Wii U No More

    I pretty much only buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games and have never really expected more from it. For that reason the WiiU has been fine for me. They took a huge gamble on the controller, and I think the idea was right, but they should have just progressed the functionality of the...

    Black Desert

    The AC comparisons have me intrigued. So exploration and stuff is pretty big then? I'm not too much into PvP as I don't play enough to be competitive, but running around finding random dungeons sounds fun. Is there a "dude, the game starts at max" mentality like most MMOs these days?

    Black Desert

    Is this another quest hub based game?

    Witcher 3

    Is it expected that you won't be able to complete all side quests on lower difficulties? I've been doing all the ones I can, but seem to be outleveling quite a few to the point they turn grey. I mean I guess I can still do them for the story, but the loot/exp would probably not be worth it.

    Windows 10

    Any idea how to get rid of the watermark on the bottom right on the trial version? Transferred the files from my laptop - which was running Windows 8 - to a new computer that didn't have an OS installed. It seems to disappear when I restart, but it pops back up if I log off.

    The Revenant (2015)

    It was great. Enjoyed it more than Hateful Eight.

    Winter 2016 Anime Thread

    Yes, waiting for this to start up again as well. Though I'm not sure they can use the same formula as in the first season and have it be as good. That last episode was already almost too insane. Excited for Berserk, but still not sure about that CGI. The movies were barely tolerable for me...

    How do you switch potions when both are equipped?

    Figured Witcher 3 should probably last me awhile. When is the next sale after Christmas? Summer?

    Oculus Rift

    Now by recommended do they mean minimum? Because that would change things. I always figured the recommended is what is used as a benchmark for a gauranteed smooth experience. I always have a system in between recommended and minimum requirements, but am usually able to play what I want pretty well.

    Witcher 3

    Probably going to pick this up tomorrow. How's the difficulty compared to Witcher 2 on normal settings? And are there many (pointless) sidequests?

    Forgot to throw DS2 in there, but I'm a bit hesitant in spending my vacation time in frustration and agony.

    Witcher 3, Shadow of Mordor, or Dragon Age? Haven't really played anything major in the past year or so.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    It's all relative. There are quite a few people who never saw the originals when they first came out. I know I didn't. I didn't really get around to seeing them until the mid/late 90's, and by then they were kind of old. I was never truly wowed by Star Wars like those who saw it in the theater...

    Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny

    Donnie Yen is awesome, but this looks like it will be a straight up fighting movie like most of his other stuff. No Ang Lee means that the story will not be anywhere near as good. I like Woo-Ping Yuen's style, but I don't think he has was it takes to make a truly compelling story. His last major...

    Learning a second language for career purposes.

    Mandarin is nice. I've been learning it for ages it seems and lived in China for some time. Coming back to the States I did a bit of phone interpreting for a short while and occasionally translate documents in my current company. I'd say it definitely helped land my current job, but I don't use...

    Into the Badlands

    I'm afraid of there being too much boring diaologue as well. All they need to do is make the story somewhat interesting and cohesive, keep the quality of the fighting scenes up and it will work. It feels like a live action anime of sorts. I like the main baron dude, though it's obvious what...

    Into the Badlands

    I liked it. Fighting scenes were impressive for a TV show and the story seems pretty interesting. Definitely my kind of show.

    Well I was shooting for around $600-700 hopefully getting some Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals thrown in. Not sure how realistic this is these days.

    I haven't built a PC in ages so I have no idea what is decent these days. Mostly looking for something mid-range that I can upgrade later.

    Arizona: Phoenix Suburbs.

    Central Phoenix is decent. I'm currently in midtown along Central Ave and it's ok. Most people flock to the Tempe, Scottsdale, Mesa, but I prefer a more city-like feel. I was looking to other larger cities, but ended up here due to work and family. Wasn't aware there was a huge Japanese...

    Any way to predict what will go on sale for Cyber Monday? I'm thinking about building something on the cheap - like $600 or less if possible - that can run games like Witcher 3 at solid (40+) frames at 1080p.

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    This game seems really quest hub centered. Is it like this at all levels?

    Splatoon, Smash or Mario Maker? I can't decide but I need to buy one.

    Phoenix & Arizona

    I've reluctantly joined in on the clubbing/bar scene in Scottsdale due to boredom...quite a handful of hot girls indeed. I never see them anywhere outside of the clubs and bars though. I don't get it. They can't all be students, can they? I don't know what it is about this area. I live right...

    So what is the best show of this season? I pretty much only watch a show or two a season these days.

    Can I get an invite for clan? Name is RahXephon. Damn, everyone is playing seasonal.

    Wii U

    Mario Maker looks like there could be potential, but I've only seen people play ridiculously hard levels, which might get annoying after a while. I'd agree with the poster above, I'd rather have more normal stuff with higher difficulty than pure insanity.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm actually a bit lost jumping back in. I can't really tell what items are good or bad anymore and don't know what I need to upgrade. I'm using Raiment on my monk and feel like there's nothing I really need to get rid of.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Whoa, I didn't even know they added higher torment levels. Hesitant about starting a seasonal character too, kinda want to play my older ones.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Recent changes worth booting this up again? I haven't played in nearly a year.

    Fear the Walking Dead

    Haven't seen a single episode of The Walking Dead. Can I still watch this, and will it be just as enjoyable? Or should I watch The Walking Dead first?

    Hong Kong

    Go to Kowloon. Walk around and get lost in the swarm. Wander into random restaurants and shops. Eat tons of street food. The only way to experience HK in my opinion.
