Okay a couple hours in and this thing is trippy as fuck. I don't even feel like its a game yet.

Picked it up at RedBox to see if I will like it given how polarizing it is. Kudos to @Utnayan for suggesting such a thing in the Jedi Fallen Order thread.

That reminds me, when is the Magicians back? It usually is winter yeah?

Wait there's a semi-shared-world sort of thing going on here kinda like Dark Souls? Just saw a streamer that came across a rope that had been left by someone else and they 'liked' them for it.

I start to wonder if anyone on the planet has a cohesive vision of the overall world-line for the Terminator movies. I know 'timey-wimey' and all that but good lord people.

Ive not read the books nor seen the Golden Compass so this is all brand new to me. I'm enjoying it quite a lot so far. I think X-23 was a good choice for the character.

I like Maurice far more than I probably should

Season 4 is out now. Some interesting foreshadowing in the modifications for the opening credits. Glimmer's new look is much more mature and Scorpia is looking like she's second guessing her role in the Horde.

I always forget about Redbox... despite walking past the damn things all the time.

The frame rate thing is absolutely genius in my view. Its sort of a brain hack that allows for pretty amazing action segments as your brain gets tricked into interpolating frames early on when things are fairly static and is thus able to react with more agility once things start moving.

I feel like this is an Xbone game for me for the 4K realness on a big screen.

I do wonder why a demon of hell needs to have a gender... I suppose any athropomorpic rendition will be just assumed to be male lacking any other detail.

Any read on this by non professional reviewers (aka y'all)? It is tempting, but I have also never been a MGS fan so I have no concept if a Kojima game is 'for me'. Plus Jedi Fallen Order is out next week and as the one remaining Star Wars nerd I am obligated to play that ASAP.

MoP and Legion were my faves so I had high hopes that this one would be promising.... I am very not whelmed.

I dig Maurice. The holiday event is also pretty cool for free content, I like the direction they are heading with this in terms of offering up a fun space to shoot things while chatting with your friends. Not sure how they are monetizing it though, I assume they rely on the paid DLC elements.

For an expansion about going to the lands of the dead this seems very underwhelming. Does this mean Sylvanas is the big bad for release and then whatever she's allied with is the later one? With no new classes or races it feels very formulaic. I agree that it feels much more akin to the EQ2...

I mean from the livestream it looks pretty fun already... release date 2020? I'm kinda shocked they said PS4 and Xbox One instead of PS5 etc.

The all-hands meeting on Monday was amazing in that soooo many internal people were hopping mad over this and yet the CEO was stiff-arming questions and sliding around complaints like a goddamn figure skater. That's really the only true skill for a CEO.

They just need a COD turn-based option for the elderly gamers

Towards the end of season 1 I felt like they were building out this world with quirky characters to show up on a regular basis as in Futurama. Since then I've just been increasingly confused as the show introduces and then discards major plot elements. I like some of the longer term things...

What I do like is the very real way they let you choose to murder hobo if you want to. I got to a point where it was very clear there was a peaceful resolution possible, but one of the faction characters didn't care for how I had handled an earlier question and thus wouldn't play along. So I...

I could see a Tinker class being fun, especially if they limited it to Gnomes, Goblins and maybe Vulpera. It seems at odds with a death-themed expansion however.

Where is this Tinker discussion coming from?

There are some things with the science weapons that they talked up at PAX that don't seem to have made it to the final released game. It was suggested that tinkering was going to be its own quasi minigame where you would build out weapons and armor using various types of technology including...

Well I have no idea what's going on now other than I'm convinced that 'Will' is Hooded Justice...friends in high places indeed! Was a nice touch that in the American Hero Story (awesome X rating for that with all the disclaimers) showed Hooded Justice as clearly a white dude.

Second play through?? Good lord I think I spent 10 hours on Edgewater alone just exploring all the nooks and crannies and then giggling like a schoolgirl at all the easter eggs.

She is just the right level of droll. Hell much of the game had me in stitches, I think the writers must be on the same wavelength of sarcasm + absurdity that I operate on.

I am almost paralyzed by choice of what I want to do with my character... its a fun feeling.

Okay just the introductory questing was enough for quite a few sensible chuckles. Bethesda should be taking some serious notes!

This is gonna sound silly... but have you tried turning it off and on again? I only ask because I had to completely restart my PC and log BACK into the Xbox for PC client in order for it to recognize both my device and that my account, which I was always logged into in both scenarios, was...

I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (which is both PC and Xbox) but according to the site you only need Xbox Game Pass for PC:

To be fair the Xbox Beta client for PC is absolute garbage. I know its a 'beta' but the overall functionality of the thing is more like an early alpha in terms of how it seems to routinely get confused as to whether or not its logged in and what the heck 'logged in' even means. Last night it...

It must be because all the good designers are off working on the next expansion...right?!?

That's a big twinkie...

squids

How are the first two episodes out? I thought it didnt start until Oct 30th on the BBC?

The bit about Vietnam being the 51st state is in the show but very subtle during the talk that Sister Night gives at the career day event. Seems clear that Louis Gosset Jr is Hooded Justice, who didn't get a heck of a lot of coverage in the original comic. What isn't clear is whether or...

So I had no idea that the Tulsa Race Riot off 1921 Wasa real thing, so thanks to this show for educating me on that issue. You can see why they would actively surpress that from the public for several decades, especially with attacks from goddamn planes... I spent a good portion of the episode...

Well I enjoyed this. It's invigorating having no idea what will happen next!

Its one of the titles I am most looking forward to and am very happy that it is included in Game Pass, even though that seems like it would cripple its actual financial viability depending on what M$ pays them per install. I went to their PAX panel this past spring and was very encouraged by...
