    You asked for it. I'm just here to provide a little joy to your day.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    It's funny to me that they're relying on "this is still closed beta," when they were supposed to be in early access already. But worse, they're like 3 months out from their new early access date, where they will be charging people to play the game. So I think criticism of anything is fair game...

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    On a superficial level I'd agree with you, but graphics don't even remotely correlate with "fun." I've got more hours in Terraria than any other game. In fact, the games I typically find the most fun resorted to more basic graphics almost across the board. Basically any AAA game nowadays...

    Ah shit, I completely forgot about that. Because it seemed like a throw away scene from the previous episode. Thanks for that!

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    I mean, I agree the gameplay is definitely fun. It's the big difference between the two games to me. MnM I feel like the game is actively fighting me, adding tedium wherever possible. Any fun I have is basically in spite of the game, not because of it. AoA is fun because they removed all the...

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    MnM graphics do indeed suck, but I think the one thing that will keep people away from this is the graphics. You either like it or you don't. And if you don't, you're not even going to touch this.

    She went to the lighthouse and escaped back to the real world. Found Victor's dad, something happened with him (heart attack?), and an ambulance came and got them both. Ambulance got sucked into From world with super annoying blonde cop girl. Which is why whatever that was supposed to be (with...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    I mean...no shit? Pretty sure many of us predicted that. It's amazing how things that are super obvious somehow elude these massive corporations.

    Best part of the entire season was Henry (I think? Victor's dad) and his whatever the fuck that was. Whether real or imagined. Most interesting thing so far. And it was like 8 seconds.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    The ironic part is the types that are the target audience for this will absolutely pay the monthly sub to beta test for them. They may as well just release it and say fuck it at this point and balance everything as they go. Holding out for some hypothetical audience that will be scared away by...

    Masters of the Universe (2026)

    I'm watching the RLM review of it now, and it kind of hit me that really He-Man is a property for people 50+ at this point. I vaguely remember He-Man, but I don't know that I was ever really into it. I'm just not quite old enough. If you were the target demographic for this in 1983-84, you were...

    Your Friends & Neighbors

    The show obviously has an enormous budget just from the set pieces and cars and shit. And it's obviously got a cast with above average acting chops. The writing is just so so terrible. I haven't watched the last episode yet, and I kind of just don't want to. You can really tell they had no idea...

    Everquest Legends

    I'd play it if it were a $20-30 box price and no subscription. A subscription on an MMO is an automatic no for me. Mostly because it makes it so I don't actually feel like I own the game. If I decide to stop playing for a year and come back, it feels like I'm basically paying the box fee again...

    BB.com Misc Refugee Thread

    Misc was already a shell of itself for years before it shut down. Now years removed, I doubt most users are coming back.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Are they still sticking to their EA launch in a few months? It seems like they're basically doing a complete redesign at this point. It's starting to give me the same vibes that Ashes of Creation did where you're just like...what the fuck are these people doing?
