I thought the GoT ending was fine. Amazing? No. Disappointing? Not really. I will save any further discussion, so I don't go into spoiler territory.
this is where i'm at. i thought the last couple seasons were a mess but the finale was very fine.
love it or hate it, the good news from game of thrones is we're going to be deluged with expensively produced shows based on good books and stuff for the next two years while everyone tries to be the next game of thrones.
i'm really looking forward to the wheel of time show myself. |

Initially I scoffed at the Pattinson choice but who knows. People were very skeptical of Heath Ledger as Joker before the movie came out and look at how that turned out.
i was thinking how bad i thought hayden christensen was in the prequels but then i saw him in Glass years later and was surprised that he was actually a pretty good actor.
that may not be analogous to the pattinson thing though since george lucas is an awful director of actors. |

Ah, the memories of Wizardry 1,2 and 3 on my Apple IIc...
Shame the IP got picked up and ruined. Wizardry 8 was a really good game that few played. Not easy to learn, but quite rewarding if you did.
I'd like a modern Wizardry game. There are similar games, but they all have annoying aspects that Wizardry games never had.
you actually might enjoy this one if you liked the earlier wizardry titles. sir-tech gave a license to a japanese firm to continue the franchise and their wizardry games are SUPER old-school; they may even hew too close to the early wizardry formula for modern western tastes, but wizardry had a surprisingly big impact in japan, and so you get 80s/early 90s dungeon crawlers with anime art. |

"Why Emotions Can Be More Powerful Than Data"
The same thing applies to the ideology behind Gender Fluidity and Diversity studies: results based on emotion instead of real science.
'transgenderism' is in the DSM-5. is that not real science? i personally defer to the preponderance of evidence rather than picking and choosing what to believe with my feelings. though i'm also not thinking about this so much my neurons immediately begin firing to connect the dots between whatever i've just read, and trans people/minorities; so i can only speculate on what calculus you're using in this matter.
its probably feelings though. its ok. |

romero seems like a chill dude and a really good mapper/designer. it has to burn wanting to nail your first commercial release in ages and getting it fucked up by your third party repeatedly.

Shouldn't that be a 'reboot'?
there's still places to go with the story. the first year of the matrix online was outlined by the wachowskis and it was pretty cool.
that said, this just sounds like idle hollywood scuttlebutt. there's probably 30,000 productions being bounced around at any given time.
its also hard for me to believe that the wachowskis would be given free reign again after a decade of non-stop flops, but who knows, its hollywood and they've certainly done it before. |

devastating : adj weak "This devastating weapon takes 6 shots to kill a rat."
this is a high quality comment, and i assume not a sterling endorsement of the game?
whenever it goes on sale i kind of consider it, as a fan of jank, but i generally like some worldbuilding and content with my jank ie. Spiders Studios games. |

i have never warmed to cell-shaded graphics. i wish i could like it so i could be a Cultured Videogame Man but it just looks terrible at an instinctive level to me.
oh well, its an epic games store exclusive so i'd forget it exists anyway. |

| 7.50 is really not a bad price for homefront, but i wouldn't get it without the singleplayer DLC, which i thought was stronger than the base game in a lot of ways. |

if anyone is looking for a bingeable show, check out Cobra Kai- on youtube of all places. the only thing i don't like about this show is that its only 10 30-minute episodes a year.
no familiarity or interest in The Karate Kid is necessary. i've never sat through a whole karate kid movie in my entire life.
youtube offers a month free of the service that gives access to the show. if you have that available, totally worth it. super glad i boredly checked it out last year after a surgery. |

| i should really go back to TOR sometime to play through the storylines before it shuts down. i've heard great things about the imperial agent campaign, and someone on blues mentioned they've smoothed out the MMO stuff and the campaigns are easy to solo. |

oh, this is Frogwares, eh? i've put some time into their most recent game, "Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter". its kind of janky and rough around the edges, and the investigation mechanics... like, when i think about them outside the game, they seem like good concepts, but how they play out in the game is really iffy.

But who cares. Not enough Lovecraft entertainment. I hope one day they'll make a high budget movie about Cthulhu and the island of R'lye.
this is my problem. i'll buy anything claiming 'cthulhu mythos' DNA because i lack good judgement. it keeps burning me again and again, but i can't stop.
this being an epic store exclusive will probably save me this time because i'll probably forget it exists since its not on steam. |

They can shove their half-assed release version up their asses. They have already announced an expansion. I'll wait for the complete game.
the developer's previous game was pretty solid, and bethesda is legit batting 1000 this generation for the single-player games they've published: Dishonored 1 and 2, The Evil Within 1 and 2, Wolfenstein 1 and 2, Doom 2016, Prey.
you want to wait, you have other stuff to play, all well and good. just seems a little extra to declare this is a fucked unfinished mess being shoveled out the door because... they announced future singleplayer content. |

rather looking forward to this myself - been a super slow year for PC games for me personally.
if anyone else is interested, greenmangaming is running their usual fluctuating 15% to 20% discount on this as a pre-order. i'm just waiting for that ephemeral feeling that the price is right before i pull the trigger. |

Thing is EA would cancel SC in a split second if they somehow got a hold of it. They wouldn't touch it if he offered it to them for free.
if you mean with a traditional funding model, yeah for sure, but star citizen is being developed literally for free. any publisher on earth would probably accept that.
even then, SC clearly has that 'tail end monetization' thing that all the big pubbies love nowadays in the fucking bag; people are dropping 4 digits on spaceships for this game and its not even out yet. |

its really interesting (and super predictable) that roberts thinks No Man's Sky is an example of ~entitled gamers~, and not of irresponsible developer speech.
i really liked no man's sky, even at launch, but when i went back later and looked at some of the claims sean murray was making, holy fuck. things that weren't even possible in the engine, and he was saying it just months prior to launch. |

Roberts is the last guy who should be talking about how to fix a game. Hes got his own share of issues thats been ongoing for 10 years now.
more like 20. we only even got Freelancer, a fine space game, because microsoft shitcanned him and had his brother prune down and finish the project.
