    Water weathering is on the enclosure walla not the statue right?

    Ancient Civilizations

    Oh shit, so that water weathering on the Sphinx could just be from flood waters lol. Why bother consulting an archaeologist or engineer? Stone is heavier than plant. Must have been an ancient advanced civilisation, using the leyline conduit down from Stonehenge should provide enough energy to...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    That's in FFX after Rikku's hometown is slaughtered so they self destruct nuke it to kill the invaders. Wakka tries to cheer her up by saying that the explosion looked like happy festival fireworks, because she is crying on the floor. This is after he's been racist to her for last few areas...

    People who hate FF8 love those furry fags in FF9.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Exactly. I get the wrong unique for my lightning build and within a few minutes I'm now a cold build. A potential point of frustration is totally sidestepped and I wasn't even enjoying lightning so I may even have quit like I did last season.

    Doctor Who

    The villian was well acted and terrifying. It was the concept of it for sci fi, the cheesiness of everyone else and things like 4th wall breaking that made it offputting.

    Assassin's Creed Shadows

    Holy shit. I didn't even realise that they are making Assassin's Creed in Japan and you are NOT playing as a Ninja.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Popped the season rewards at lv50 and got Fractured Winterglass, so I'm a frost sorc build now, an early build around unique is a nice feature - would probably be best if you can choose from a selection though.

    I wonder how much they paid Gemma Chan to just delete her boring girlboss character?

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    They did that more than once lol. Clive's mother is the most detestable villian I've ever seen in all of fiction, her fate is a shocking moment but the game is done from that point onwards. She should have been fightable as the final boss, usurping Ultima somehow. The only thing close in BG3...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    You would hope that their peanut brains will connect that the Season 2 mechanic was popular and baking it into the main game for Season 4 is popular... so they will have another mechanic that's potentially evergreen. Of course if they played PoE as fans of the genre they would already have...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    It averaged out at mediocre, it had higher highs than BG3 even but much lower lows. It's like every part of BG3 is a 10/10 but FF16 has 12/10 parts and 6/10 parts. After being shit for 20 years I feel like they can make good FF games again, but the sales did worry me that they would not see that.

    Assassin's Creed Shadows

    Because Africa is a shithole so the level design would be hunting bushmeat and sneaking into mud huts. They need our culture because they don't have their own.

    Three episodes means they have little faith in it.

    The Lord of the Rings

    So... they rushed the Sauron helps create rings storyline that's central to the entire universe with "he was there for one day and suggested an alloy". Now they are backtracking by having him infiltrate the ring forge a second time!? Wat. Is Galadriel going to fuck him AGAIN!?

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Loot seems fixed but fighting a lv1 Baltog in Helltide and grinding one zone with one enemy layout for 50 levels is going to get old. At lv25 which has been two helltides. Is was fun with the vampire season but this is the second time doing the same thing now and they tuned the vampire loot and...

    Luckily Russia is corruption free and is going to be able to drive around those fortifications and take 75m2 of territory tomorrow.

    Can you explain the oil one. Did it not initially come out of the ground, or is that a Warner Bros cartoon thing?

    Araysar. I've always said that Russia should be winning and probably will win. So I'm not going to be tearing my clothes and gnashing my teeth when the inevitable frontline collapse happens. I'm someone who hates globohomo and has voted against it (Brexit) so I could be on your side. I'm just...

    RIP Araysar

    OK so Russia initially captured about 160,000km2 leaving 480,000km2 left. At a rate of 75km2 a day, that's 17 and a half years to take all of Ukraine. Fastest invasion in history!

    Doctor Who

    Yeah people don't like it when you point to the bad of both sides, they want only the good of their side discussed and the bad waved away. So here I am, apparently a leftist because I see the bad shit Putin does too, complaining about woke Doctor Who and this being a surprise somehow.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    It's an infiltration mission, but there are a bunch of places you can just do combat instead. After Black Sapphire you can just take out the entire lobby because fuck you no other reason.

    Doctor Who

    No I'm not a leftie. I agree with people here about 80% of things and even had my mind changed on a few things, but that 20% is bad for the echo chamber. The main political disagreement is me being on America's side with the Ukraine War which is baffling to me.

    Doctor Who

    There was a line about how the planet had a law that forced the babies to be born but cut the budgets so they wouldn't be looked after. This is a common pro-abortion critisism of Republicans who are anti abortion and anti welfare. Of course continuing the pro abortion argument would mean...

    Where are all the MMORPG games? lol

    I did play that, seemed to have some promise but Runescape graphics and not enough to do. Seemed like they were going for medieval EVE Online. Genshin has a vast variety of mats everywhere in roleplay appropriate locations, like you climb to the top of a mountain and there's a specific flower...

    I'm walking home and browsing the internet, you've posted a 24 minute video with zero comment or context on why you have posted it..

    Yes. 1) There's something going on with Ruby Sunday and her being dropped off at the church at birth. She has some sort of secret/hidden power and it was part of both episodes. 2) Cosmic entities have been unleashed somehow and more are coming. Toymaker in the regeneration special who is the...

    Genshin Impact has a great open world design in places. I would like to see an MMO with a vast traversable world with crafting mats to collect everywhere and enemy camps amd dungeons randomly spawning - then you compete or team up with other players. Have environmental effects like snow areas...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    Updating ads on billboards in a virtual city like in a GTA type game or a sports game would be interesting. If I'm paying AAA prices I expect a full game with no adverts. I'm not happy with battlepasses but will suffer them if it's paying for future content.

    We are reaching unsurvivable levels of cringe. It's like a szicho wrote that second episode. I don't know what genre this is or what the point is. Trigger Warnings: General: Zesty Gay Black Man Breaking of 4th Wall Episode 1: Abortion Refugees Episode 2: Non Binary Tranny References to Gay...

    Yeah I'm not claiming that, I wasn't clear, my fault. The pic I took is knobs as a stonemasonry leftover with the way they cut the stone. Top right has a modern stone that has it. The video additionally talked about Putlog hole - Wikipedia and the inverse as possibilities, so I mentioned that too.

    Daybreak is probably the only studio less competent than Blizzard in this space, excluding the actual scam studios. A studio with a proven track record has to make a D&D Forgotten Realms, Warhammer 40k or Magic the Gathering MMO, or Riot makes the Runeterra MMO. I can't see any other way...

    A summary would be appreciated. If it's the concrete theory, I want to know why modern quarried marble has it too (top right). The tour guides at The Parthenon were saying it was part of the quarrying technique and I've seen a someone shaping stone on TV who ended up with a knob.
