    What are you playing?

    Been playing Haak, an indie Metroidvania on Switch (and other platforms). Very quick gameplay and satisfying combat with deflection and dash attacks, nothing too deep but moving around feels a lot like Ori except you're in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and explore ruins of civilization. The...

    What are you playing?

    Just finished The Mummy : Demastered on Switch. Simple and to the point Metroidvania game, very much like Super Metroid or Axiom Verge. Cool pixel art and animations, nothing incredible but it works. It's run and gun mostly, a little exploration, not too many collectibles (just skills, upgrades...

    Isn't this like 5 years before ANH? Bail Organa has been a member of the Rebellion since right after ROTS (and was already against Palpatine before that), so that's 15 years before this show. If it's going to be an Organa recruit it would be a teenage Leia. Hopefully she runs a bit faster with...

    What are you playing?

    Finished Yoku's Island Express on the Switch. Fun little Metroidvania game, reminds me of Hollow Knight except very colorful, but there is barely any combat in this so the similarities stop there. It's a mix of exploration/platforming and pinball, of all things. It works in context, and it's a...

    But that flashback took place before Revenge of the Sith, so what he said was true... from a certain point of view.

    What are you playing?

    Just played and finished F.I.S.T. Forged in Shadow Torch on Switch. Very solid Metroidvania game, quite similar to Ori in terms of gameplay and abilities but the aesthetic is very steampunk / post-apocalyptic stuff with anthropomorphic animals; you're a bunny rabbit with a huge mech fist...

    Street Fighter 6

    I'd totally play an up-to-date graphics remaster/remake of the original Street Fighter 2, plus the boss characters included so what, Super Street Fighter 2 ' or something? Then they can add a zillion DLC characters and I don't care about them at all, but I have some nostalgia for the original...

    Ever since Street Fighter 2, yes. It was in the manual, but in game it was E. Honda.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Yes I forgot about that one, it looks pretty cool, never heard of it before but I'll definitely check it out on Switch. The visuals and music reminded me of Link's Awakening except for the isometric angle.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Speaking as a shameless Nintendo fanboy, this Nintendo Direct was a steaming pile of shit. No idea who thought it was a good idea to cram it full of farming simulators and generic weeb RPG's... Only news worth it for me was Sifu on Switch (it's out already for months on other systems but I...

    Thanks very much for the kind words, I may eventually print some of them once I grab a 3D printer, but would be delighted to see some people give them a try at printing/painting if some already have the equipment for it. I actually made a few more of those, but I'm open to suggestions if you...

    Well, I don't have any plans for Quarm at the moment, but I have a future Nagafen and perhaps Zlandicar looking at me on my desk, judging me silently because I haven't had any time to devote to that kinda hobby in several months. Someday though! :)

    What are you playing?

    Been playing Two Point Campus, having a blast, it's very similar to Two Point Hospital but they've refined a lot of things and improved on just about everything. Fair warning though, the game (at least on Switch) crashes pretty often (like once an hour or so) once your campus gets big enough...

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    Scavenger hunt is a fun concept, hope they do more of those. Funny thing too is that Silk 2 movie they had to censor the nudity in their video obviously, but the entire movie is on Youtube and completely uncensored for the shower scene. Algorithms, man.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    What I find funny about TLJ is that one of its few memorable (not necessarily in a good way) moments is the "Holdo maneuver" where she launches her capital ship at lightspeed through the Supremacy and wrecks it... and then they totally undermine it with the next movie by saying it was a one in a...

    Yeah, tried to make a giantess because she's really tall in-game but all the models on that figure maker have huge man hands and feet, tried to give her an otherwordly look but she does look like she just finished participating in the women's swimming olympics and then put on her robe and wizard...

    Prey

    One of the only good parts of AVP Requiem shows the Yautja homeworld and it has a definite red / orange tint to the skies and landscape, which could explain why the Yautja's vision is very red when the mask is off, it's adapted to their home conditions but when they visit other planets to hunt...

    The Boys

    I don't think she was fighting for her life or trying to save loved ones in her Jesus concerts so she may never have needed to draw that much power before, and so she discovered new things during that fight. I read the whole thing a few weeks ago and I don't recall Starlight using her powers...

    I have a feeling the "currently in use power thing" is a case of the Viewers are Morons trope in effect. It's like Hughie was sending more electricity into the grid by sliding some buttons up. I mean while we're at it, could she use the static electricity in a huge crowd to draw power? How...

    The Boys

    It was pretty funny how ineffective her power blast was, yeah, but it did show us that she gets more powerful when there's more electricity around her, and she can fly when she is powered up enough. That could be interesting down the line. Makes me wonder if she could fuck Homelander up if they...

    Ms. Marvel

    Clicked into this thread expecting torches and pitchforks and instead I see people enjoying this show. I consider it the weakest MCU show so far, but that's probably because I'm not the target demographic and I'm a little disturbed by the overabundance of "wearing a hijab is how I feel free as...

    The Boys

    On the contrary, I think Homelander telling Maeve that he used to dream of having kids with her, and that the kids would have been perfect and "stronger than Ryan" hints at the possibility of two supe parents making a more powerful kid, and Homelander is very powerful. I think that implies his...

    Yes we saw him regenerate when he was fighting Kimiko in S1, they were just tearing wildly at one another and healing right back. That's probably also how he survived his Almond Joy poisoning, the head wound he got in Nicaragua, and why he just slices his own arm open in the elevator. As for...

    The Boys

    We know he can regenerate like Kimiko, that he is super resistant to damage (took a full blast to the face from that sandpeople supervillain in S1 and only got a little singed), and has at least some super strength and agility. He may be stronger than average supes since he was seemingly able...

    The Boys

    There is a trope about "mandatory secondary powers", powers that are required to survive your actual main superpower. The Flash or A-Train for instance requires some kind of superstrength and extreme resistance to friction to be able to survive running this fast with just some spandex and some...

    Miniature Painting

    Actually considering how much money is on that table, he probably does. It's just that he has to fuck while painting or he won't have time to finish the army.

    Mostly finished as far as the Pantheon is concerned. Just missing Cazic-Thule (not doable in this app because of his weird body shape), Veeshan (can't make dragons), Mayong Mistmoore as the God of Blood could be there but I think I'll keep him for a 2.0 with more important NPCs that aren't...

    Even though the show so far has major differences with the comic source, I still think Edgar (who is basically Stillwell from the comics) isn't a supe, he just has massive steel balls and is confident enough about Homelander's insecurities to tell it how it is. Neuman telling Edgar that she's...
