Yeah, Serpent Isle just kinda hits different. If Ultima's world, Britannia, is literally "Let's do Britain but gamify it.", Serpent Isle is, "Let's imagine an entirely new game world". I dunno if they fixed all the issues in the rushed second half of it, but it's still a top CRPG to add to any list.

Yeah Ultima 8 and 9 were kind of a mess for a lot of reasons, and then the Ultima series got consumed by Ultima Online.

Biggest thing that bothered me about Anno 1800 is how the game focuses on the Item system, so you spend so much time basically farming items rather than building your city. I kind of thought to myself I'd enjoy it more if I just ignored that feature, but they are just too powerful to ignore. I...

From a quick read of Resurrected seems like an HD remaster with some QOL, so I'd recommend that.

I dunno about D2 Resurrected, but in the original game depending on your build, D2's necromancer is also one of the few games where you feel like you're raising a literal army of the dead. You can defeat content off-screen while you're just raising skeletons, zombies and a golem to do your bidding.

Diablo 2 would be a crpg if a few hours of unskippable dialog and a combat autoresolve feature were added.

Trailer just dropped. Man is not ready for AI actresses

Would Jim Carey be George's dad?

I thought this clip was interesting: One of the constant complaints I have of the Mandoverse shows, even the episodes I like, is that they are disjointed. They seem to connect one storyboard to the next with incomprehensible plotlines and character decisions. I don't really understand the...

I'm skipping this expansion, but will play the next one. Level increase expansions are the worst for me, because I mostly play for group content and it's balanced around not being max-level. So if I played it I'd almost certainly roll in day 1 and beat all the missions and get gear I couldn't...

The day we die, brother. The day we die. in body or spirit.

I'll never get AC Shadows or another AC game ever again but don't begrudge those who do for the simple reason that they spend $$$ for dedicated artists that painstakingly build a beautiful world to put Ubislop content into. If I was into Japanese or Viking history/architecture/culture I'd...

Had the same reaction, what a gaggle of losers.

I really enjoy this kind of casual disrespect. Cradle, The Divine Dungeon, Mother of Leaning and Unorthodox Farming are finished. I think most of these series, if they finish, will have turned into garbage long before they conclude. So I don't really value whether they have concluded or not.

Yeah that ranking is purely based on my preferences, not opinion of quality. I wouldn't try to hard to be elitist though, everyone paying attention realizes the truth of litrpg:

I'm getting close to finishing the latest book in Reborn Apocalypse... Need a new series soon.... Here's my tier list: RanknRead Anyone ever read Goodreads ? I think it's not LitRPG but is highly rated. Also considering Welcome to the Multiverse Audible based on @Maximis Velocity...

James Marstars doing Dresden is definitely one of the best ones in this genre of power fantasy (if you include Dresden in that). I wish Jeff Hays did more books I happened to listen to!

The other one is Reforged. It's really popular but changes the game less so i went with Convergence.

Yeah idk about Convergence specifically but a lot of modded games work via dll injection or similar, which diverts the programs execution flow to run different code. Even Skyrim uses skyrim script extender. Usually modding forums are full of people reporting false positives.

If you like old shit or like empty open world games or to see the genesis of that genre, AC1. If you want to experience an epic saga or like Italian renesciance, AC2. If you want to enjoy what is a top tier pirate game with some Assassin's Creed in it, AC4 Black Flag. If you want old greek...

I love how

I ended up chosing Convergence because it apparently changes the game more, and also turns the game into more of a "power fantasy", which I think I'll need to get all the way through Elden Ring and DLC without losing interest. I'm having a good time with it so far. I only played ER at release...

They still have a long way to go, the AI Video Now is still really fake looking.

I didn't see the show producers talk about it, no. Yeah these days any tracking shot like this can be spliced without the viewer knowing it.

Dedra casually listening to the opera music of the civilization she is strategizing to wipe out. Stunning.

It's ok, brother. I imagine there is a lot you don't understand that those around you think is obvious.

The algorithm knows i love andor.. I thought this was interesting, i would have enjoyed more screentime showing Space Trump being part of the rebellion.

This came up on my feed, i didn't appreciate this was a single, very long shot when i watched it. I wonder how many other long shots there are that i didn't notice, especially in some of the areas with incredible set design.

It's crazy to me that an actor or actress gets a breakout role in a karate show with long breaks and doesn't go all out trying to be a convincing martial artist to try and leverage that experience for future roles. Literally every character tried to get fir except Sam, I'm guessing she was not...

This is the perfect community to mistake George Lucas bondage choking kink for wokism. Meanwhile Luke Skywalker is farming aura telling to Jabba to surrender as he stands at the precipice of the Sarlacc pit.

Rogue one is like if they mashed the star wars movies with Andor. It has elements of both and the characters are almost intelligent. It'd be fun if they made a season 3 of Andor that just redoes rogue one and keeps basically nothing except death star plans and Galen Urso.

No. Do whatever you want, try all the builds. I think i got a mod that makes respecing easier.

Reminds me of this scene, which I chuckle about all these years later. Maybe I missed it but there is nothing that indicates any special ability for this character (Baki) to hear or teleport or anything. His girlfriend knew Baki was somewhere nearby, and she has the absolute trust that no matter...

Only thing that can revive the canon star wars timeline is Tony Gilroy and the rest of the Andor team picking up the Mandoverse while decanonizing episode 7, 8, 9.

Just finished a rewatch of s1, then watched s2 and rogue one. It really is an amazing series. There are quibbles i have here and there but they aren't worth belabouring. I love the endings for pretty much every character. Dedra, Cyril were my favorite characters and the writers refrained from...

It's better they kept Perrin as a hedonist. He's a huge part in explaining how the Empire, if it keeps its rich fat and happy, can put its boot on the neck of most people.
