    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Yeah the start was a surprise for certain, but a welcome one. Omega should be a fun puzzle to figure out. I have several ideas already:

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Wait what... You only use soul ash to create the one legendary you get to use? What the fuck is the point in having A currency that is only good for buying one item.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I have a mix of 49 and 50 gear with carefully chosen stats and I just barely managed to survive a 13 Archways... The Strix in particular are way the fuck too dangerous and are far more of a challenge than any boss or elite.

    For All Mankind

    Meant to watch this a long time ago but finally getting around to it. Enjoying it a lot and I'm only part way through season 1. Love this sort of alternate history thing and the cast is top notch.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Funeral Pyre is money. I don't have Fortress so I use Shadow Comet on my Roaring Umbra for melee Dev and it feels like I'm cheating.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm not buying the 'COVID caused us to be bad' narrative from developers. Nearly every white-collar / office job over the past year has done the exact same 'work from home' schtick and most of them are doing just fine. I fail to see how the developers needed humans to be sitting in a specific...

    Dark Alliance (Drizzt and co in Icewind Dale)

    So the choices seem to be : melee with some range, fast melee, slow melee and stand-around-in-melee-range-and-get-hit Yeah I know they wanted to stick to a given part of the licensed property but good lord Icewind Dale has always had the most incredibly dull character concepts. The fact that...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Several of the expeditions just seem to have overtuned timers. I can dial the difficulty back to almost nothing and still have a hard time getting gold on a few of them just due to the time it takes to chase down outliers and runners. The difference between console and PC cannot be...

    Shadow and Bone

    Yeah the hard to grasp part about the 'medieval setting' with locomotives, gas lamps, pistols, machine guns, women as soldiers, bullet-proof kaftans and magic users throwing fireballs and snapping bones with a gesture is that there are gay people in world that also features a LOT of casual sex...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Watching that video was highly triggering to me. I kept yelling 'PUNCH THEM' at the screen. Archways is just made for melee Dev, never even come close to missing gold on that and used it everytime I wanted to increase my rank.

    Shadow and Bone

    Whoever is adapting the material seems to have a solid grasp of what they are doing. I would not have suspected that we were watching two different 'series' of books that had been merged into a single timeline by juggling and shifting events.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    When you level up an item that you have upgraded the attributes on it knocks off one tick of the upgrade. Basically each of the ticket is +1 item level for that attribute alone. Of course it could be something else as well, but I definitely had some attribute increases decay to nothing after...

    Mortal Kombat (2021)

    Cole was pointless and the final stinger of him going to go find Johnny Cage was just adding insult to injury. Cole is the Gwildor of Mortal Kombat. I appreciate that they used characters from across the whole series so that they could keep a bunch of fighters to kill off in each while still...

    Invincible

    I've not read the comics, but I get the impression that Atom Eve is ludicrously powerful in a way that many people do not fully understand.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Did anyone else notice that the new suit had two redwings? When he catches the truck there are redwings helping on either side of him.

    Shadow and Bone

    Watched first episode and it seemed decent enough. Sort of a Russian Avatar the last Airbender but with added thieves and whores. Definitely a fairly high fantasy.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    There may have been some time as part of the plot shifts they did a year after the original production.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    John Walker needs therapy... he needs like ALL the therapy. That boy is nutters (and yet Wyatt Russell killed it as the character so I'm happy) So will they now have a season of Captain America and the Winter Soldier?

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Hit WT15 on my techno and it is genuinely much harder than on my melee Devastator. I will say that playing my Dev has gotten me more accustomed to using melee with the other characters when mobs get in too close and that has saved my bacon many many times. Still not sure what the expedition...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Armor pierce is nice on a gun for an Anomaly build if you use the mod that gives you Skill pierce for armor pierce. I like using Shadow Comet with Anomaly Mutation as you can get extra benefit from your high anomaly power and status effect by having burn, toxic and bleed on all at the same time...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I would get to 30 before starting expeditions. On my second character i hit 30 before I even got to the desert due to replaying bits with different people. At 27 you are missing out on 4 skill points and that alone is a big difference for some builds. Why the heck did they do skill points as...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    There is a definite benefit to running with complimentary builds. If you have two 'rounds' guys relying on kills to refill mags then you run into issues with them sniping each other's kills / anomaly damage killing their target and they run out. I think you want one guy to be running a...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    What's going on here? Same item level, same rarity, cool down and status power are identical but the Vagrants Boots just have straight-up higher anomaly power and armor. Is this just an RNG factor?

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I'm low key holding out for some sort of addon/expansion down the road simply because there are not only plenty of places to take the story, but there's a lot of room for additional levels both from the skill tree as well as from item design. Heck I think each class has one category that only...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Empowering Antenna, the final point in the Pestilence tree for Technos, seems bad. Yeah it's a 40% buff to weapon damage for the whole squad, but it's only for 10 seconds and the only two decay skills are Blighted Rounds and Blighted Turret. You should try and keep Blighted Rounds active at...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Black Adam is DC... Awkwafina does seem to be everywhere these days, but I'm generally fine with that. This was a suitably impressive trailer and I'm very much looking forward to getting Real Mandarin instead of Trevor. Should tie nicely into Iron Man 1 as well so that's fun.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Seismic is also the build for melee Devastator. Melee is technically a skill and so uses anomaly power. Add in the mods for 100% bonus melee damage and 50% shorter cool down on melee attacks and you can just crush crush crush only pausing to fire a could of shots to activate longer cool down...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Devastator melee build is crazy fun so long as you have melee-attack mapped to something convenient. It's very effective for those 'swarm' style expeditions where Pyromancer gets overwhelmed. Problem is that there's so many mods I want to use but am stuck due to limits only changing one mod...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    This was a surprise and very much a welcome one! Also it's very clear now that Sharon Carter is the Power Broker. Agent 13 done broke bad.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    I wonder if this 'life was better when snapped' aspect was part of the original plotline or if that was a pivot when they lost the pandemic. Regardless I do find myself sympathizing with Karli and Zemo far more than I do for the 'heroes' especially NuCap. I do have to credit Wyatt Russell...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Started a Techno and good lord its sooo much easier than the Devastator when levelling up at least. My big issue with Dev is that for a long time I didnt have the necessary mods to do various things and so kept having to switch out abilities depending on if I was fighting melee critters or gun...

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    Detours got quite a lot of attention at Comic-Con the year before Disney bought Lucasfilm and promptly buried the show because they didn't want meta comedy to detract from their relaunch of the brand with the new trilogy etc. I figured it was only a matter of time before they brought them out.

    He's on Xbox so likely GamePass. I finished the main story on Pyromancer but now playing with friends as a Devastator. I really like how you can get some pretty crafty builds that work well with the mods you have access to. Without the crafting system this would be a shitshow.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    The World Tier system is quite ingenious. It provides a vector for steadily increasing difficulty in way that scales with actual player efficacy rather than normalizing to some stat or forcing the player to select their own difficulty with no guidance. My one character solo is cruising around...

    The crafting system also allows you to switch mods so you don't get fucked when you have a build based around X-mod and find yourself unable to upgrade until you get an item with the same mod.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Right now I'd say it feels like at least a Borderlands the Presequel. The character classes are quite distinct and offer many synergies both with other players and with various skill/classpoint/gear options. We don't have nearly enough class points to start experimenting heavily with how the...
