    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    I don't get all the edge lording on this, but it was not spectacular either. Honestly the missed opportunity here is is they in fact are retconning the Kryptonians as conquerors, why not use the Power Girl version of Supergirl. She is way more interesting than Kara Danvers version and would...

    Fallout 5 - greenlit apparently

    What they should do is go out and get some of the OG devs who worked on New Vegas. A lot of those guys are available, now the In Exile is mostly tanking. Even with the bugs and shooter RPG aspects, New Vegas was arguably one of the best games of all time.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    So much this. Plus the executive culture pushing for this shit do not have the faintest idea of the costs and effort of adopting AI, let alone of its capabilities and limitatiions. They just see the second coming of outsourcing and a lot of companies are going to murder themselves like what...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I would say that if you are close to retirement (like withiin 10ish years) and have lots of experience, you are golden. The middle manager parasite class has figured out that they need at least a couple of old white guys know know how shit works and cannot rely completely on Poos. They have...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    The only thing he has going for him is his higher base HP, but he can't take hits in the end game encounters as well as the real tanks (or dodge masters) can, so it does not matter. As a 40k player, I hated the Cheese Wolves but I actually feel bad for the NPC in this game for being so weak...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    There is only one story DLC left and its a ways out. Probably worth doing a seperate heretic run for that one, if you have not already gone down that road. I actually got into the quest line of the arbites DLC and it is short but solid. It lacks the depth and full story integration of Void...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    Fairly far into a new run of this with the DLC. The Void Shadows was well done in every area except balance on some of the fights. The hall trash encounters that are part of it have enemies with over 600hp that have lots of movement and can reliably gank softer characters in a single turn...

    The Running Man

    Its an Edgar Wright movie which means a certain vibe and pacing. I doubt they will go with the book ending, but I would love it if they did. This trailer is giving me more of a Baby Driver vibe, which I think is a good thing.

    The Running Man

    Book was actually excellent but there is no way in hell they do the ending as remotely close to written as I would like, because current year. Edgar Wright can do no wrong in my eyes, so gonna roll the dice on this one.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    We played on side by side consoles. We have three tvs in our bedroom, which we nicknamed the reality deprivation chamber.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I got Night Reign along with the wife to play together, as we did a co-op play of ER together (the base game anyhow) thinking this was going to be casual friendly and more like the Dragon Age MP. Combat is not an issue, but the frantic run around and ignore most of the content is completely...

    Dating

    Forward intel and engagement is always good, but fundamentally people lie about a lot of things, especially themselves even to themselves. Putting yourself out there is always going to be a risk. Mustering the resolve to get back out there is a major step in moving forward and one a lot of...

    Dating

    There is a difference between looking for Mrs Right vs Mrs Right Now. I think we can all agree on that. That said getting back on the proverbial horse as it were by bar trawling is not the worst idea, especially if you have been out of the market for a long time. Getting that first base hit...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    The story characters you got early (or who had decent class setups) had a leg up and this was indeed a positive for Mustadio, but concentrate combine with his gun abilities made him a major force late game as well. And yeah Chocobo Mounted Mustadio plus W8 could solo the game, but then again...
