I liked The Road and No Country for Old Men (book and movie for each) but the fans of Blood Meridian have loudly set the expectations too high for any book to meet them. I'll get to it eventually but for now it's staying on ice. I'd much rather give All the Pretty Horses a run first if I'm...

Easy recommend. I enjoyed it very much and it still pops in to my thoughts.

I knew Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was a hot mess going in but I didn't expect it to be work to get through. Lydia, her manager/finance and Delia were all terrible and on screen a lot in a script that was a hodgepodge of several underdeveloped ideas. Jenna came across like an actual person making...

I'm told the TOS animated series wasn't bad.

There should have been a setting added that made it purely a change in coloration with no other effects and it should have been added the league after Delirium. Having it be a thing that layers on top of everything else is ass.

I didn't realize it was adopted from a book until the opening credits. This starts out doing something that I've really got no time for - single dad that's an abusive piece of shit. Do those people exist? They sure do and fuck them but in current year fem-coded fiction they've become they've...

Hated it. Got less than 2/3rds of the way through and fast forwarded. I wanted to bail on it immediately and should have.

If you're absolutely socket starved and have no points spent on minion stuff on your passive tree you can get through most content with two (AG + Meatshield) provided you're prioritizing gear that keeps him alive instead of trying to squeeze out utility. I went with a doppleganger's guise and a...

A couple links and gear all centered around the AG's survival and you can get him to soak 15% of hits for you regardless of build.

Jesus. Lit sucks live. unrelated - 100% never beat the boss in the arcade and never saw anyone else do it either.

I think the technical distinction is episodic (adventure/monster of the week) versus serialized storytelling. Like the old adventure "serials" were the story continued week to week instead of being self contained. They were also called chapter plays.

I think he means the episodes that advance the broader narrative instead of the adventure of the week episodes. Sorta like how the X Files had it's monster episodes and then it's meta narrative conspiracy advancing episodes. Season 8 was better than 7 so let's hope the trend keeps going.

EQ2 beat WoW to market and launched with player housing.

I've never been too proud to Transmute - Alteration - Regal - Vaal to do a map with only two or three irrelevant affixes for an atlas point.

Let's go back to the day my grandnephew died in that fire that I was sad about during the first act. NOPE

That movie does not make sense as presented. You can go anywhere at any time and you pick a couple hours before what's his face blowing up a star and annihilating the Enterprise. That also means before you even choose a time and place you've got infinite time to plan and this was the best you...

One of the nice things about totems is how modular they are. You're now certified to do any ballista totem in the future should you see a skill you like and there's always Good_Skill_Totem available as a starter. The atlas is way better. I'm not going to miss juggling the maps I get naturally...

The nerds of the day wanted Kirk and Spock back on TV and were not quiet about it. Once the show hit it's stride everyone just pretended that never happened. edit - just to expand on this a little The TOS films were successful and there were plans for a relaunch. Instead of that happening you...

The initial backlash against TNG was pretty severe but I guess back then you didn't have your instagram filling up with everyone calling you shit.

Holy shit grandpa you think anyone born this century is even going to get that reference? Aunt Bee wasn't in the Return to Mayberry, the made for TV movie where fucking EVERYBODY came back, because she was pissy about fans thinking she was like her character. When Andy visits Bee's grave that...

I don't remember saying I was a fan of this show.

There is No Anti-Memetics Division Secret agency tackles anti-memetic threats, otherworldly predators or alien intelligences that are difficult to impossible to perceive or even remember the existence of. I've read a fair amount of horror and science fiction stories and this one was more...

The generic currency is laid on maybe a little too thick but I'm not going to miss the leagues where the first regal I get is from the regal vendor recipe.

I'm finishing up yellows and with piles and piles of breach nodes allocated the mirage loves showing up at random abysses and legions. When it works I've got no complaints. Do the content you want to do and then do it again. Later on with real investment in to a strategy it should be solid but...

It's even more inbred than it might first appear Streamer content video builds

The divination card turn in quality of life change is

I did Mirages when I thought it made sense to (character up and running so it's not a struggle, a mechanic I'm interested/curious to double dip on) and they were alright. General currency drops are way higher plus there's more essences so you don't need to rely on the league mechanic during the...

Wallah would be a sweet name for a halfling unrelated - Sailor Nothing cosplay, very fancy

I started at 100k. We are not the same.

Legion - Headhunter - Mirage Legion springs to mind as well.

*sigh* Check out Nexus Mods

Already got a few of those

Really using their whole ass on this one. We've received more support for Mirage pre-launch than some leagues get during their full duration.

Keepers By the time we're wrapping up Mirage the Guardian should be meta and all over 3.29 league starts.

Been watching starter tier list videos and Guardian is just criminally underrepresented. Ghazzy is starting one himself but he's basically it.

If you're absolutely hell bent on farming ritual (for example) and the Mirages are curated to try and spawn next to league mechanics it's going to behoove you to keep your atlas clean and block a lot of content. I doubt the system is going to recognize the Mirage should go next to the Ritual you...

We did get confirmation that Harvest was a go but anything that spawned a new zone along with the existing masters was a no.

Don't forget to chance/scour spam your mirage vaal side area for a chance at the unique mirage vaal side area

Degen gamblers exist along side streamers that need content.
