    All things Brandon Sanderson

    I really enjoyed this book. I can't believe it's been 6 years since the last one so I had to watch some videos to brush up but I loved everything about this novel. I also have a feeling Era 3 won't be that big a time jump based on how things ended.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Another new player question for you guys- thanks for the help in advance and for helping with my last one. My buddy plans to play a cleric and I'm deciding between wizard and mage. Maybe necro but less likely. We'll likely be doing mostly duo and group content (as convenient), and i don't...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    So I just got back into EQ after literally 20 years away, and I started up with a friend on FV to try it out. We've been having a pretty good time just levelling up in the nostalgia zones and not really trying to go full efficiency. We were discussing joining the new TLP in May (the normal-ish...

    I really enjoyed this, especially the twist at the end. I thought something was up but I genuinely didn't see that coming until almost right when it happened. I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes, especially finding out more of what's really going on with the abidan. Even after...

    James S.A. Corey - The Expanse

    I just finished as well, literally minutes ago. I loved it.

    Arcane

    I honestly can't believe how good that was. I figured it would be decent but this blew my away. I didn't catch a lot of the easter eggs but I've been reading up on them and I'm really impressed how they've tied it all together even with multi-year old voice lines/interactions from the game that...

    The Sci-Fi Book Thread

    I read this book so long ago, I totally forgot about it and I'm really surprised there's another one coming out after all this time. As for other books, I just finished reading the first 3 books in the Sentenced To War series by JN Chaney and Jonathan Brazee. It's solid but fairly standard...

    What did you just read?

    God speed on this journey. As Randin said, definitely read them back to back. I read them when they were still coming out and it's a serious struggle to come back to reading a new one if you haven't read the previous ones recently, because they're so incredibly dense. Some of the most epic...

    What did you just read?

    I just read both of these as well and really enjoyed them. Project Hail Mary especially I absolutely loved, and may actually have liked even more than The Martian, which I also thought was phenomenal.

    Conan Exiles

    Do those mods work together or is it one or the other?
  11. Zyke

    Conan Exiles

    What mods would you guys recommend for the best experience? I've played before so I'm not brand new but it's been a while. Assuming a mostly PvE oriented group. Also, are there any mods that actually make the purge a threat? At least the last time I played defending against it was...

    Warhammer 40k

    I'm really looking forward to the exodite as well, who are also working officially with GW now.

    The Expanse

    What's this from?
  14. Zyke

    What did you just read?

    I really liked books one and two, but for some reason I felt book 3 really lacking and could never quite figure out why. I think things just happened too quickly, but it's been years since I've read it so it's hard to remember.

    Cobra Kai

    I loved this season. It does such a great job honoring the originals without it feeling like forced fan service. It's cheesy as shit but that's part of the appeal, it's really just a modernized 80's movie after all. Though I agree that the fights this season felt kind of weak compared to the...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I enjoyed getting to see the turbolift dimension that the lifts apparently operate in, since that clearly does not fit inside Discovery. Also I just want to see one episode where half the crew isn't crying and trying to have a touching moment while the oxygen is running out, maybe even pretend...

    Albion Online

    Anyone still playing this? Trying it again with a small group for the new roads update and it's pretty good. I don't like everything they decided to do but overall the system is pretty solid.

    Lord of the Rings Online

    What's the community like these days? I haven't played this game in like 12 years but absolutely loved it back in the day. Is it worth getting into now? And how are the lower level zones to level up in now?

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I'm crazy excited for this. Not only a 40k game that (hopefully) isn't made on a shoe-string budget but also one that isn't focused on marines for once. Though Space Marine was awesome.

    Conan Exiles

    Anyone still play this? I'm thinking of getting into again and even putting up a server but wondering how it compares now to a year ago or so? Any major changes?
  21. Zyke

    Will Wight

    Is it worth reading? I really like his cradle books. My only real complaint about them is that the last one felt really overpriced with how short it was, though the content itself was great.

    Dresden Files

    Does anyone know of a good recap for the series? I want to dive into Peace Talks but its been so long since the last one I'm worried I barely remember who half the characters are and what's going on.

    Dresden Files

    Holy shit this is actually coming out?
  24. Zyke

    Cobra Kai

    Finally I no longer have any reason to buy youtube red again. And hopefully the move gets this series the viewership it deserves.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    Yep, just finished it like a week ago. I got it after looking up his other books since i liked TEF so much. It was really good, especially how he managed to make a bunch of huge emo assholes relatable and interesting characters.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I strongly recommend Eisenhorn as well. Gaunt's Ghosts as mentioned is fantastic but a much more massive series. If you want an easy-ish to get into space marine book, Helsreach is one of my favorites and one of the best imo.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I just read the Emperor's Finest, I really liked it. ADB is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors, probably only eclipsed by Abnett.

    The Expanse

    She's more like this in the books. Seasons 1-3 Chrisjen was extremely tame compared to book Chrisjen, probably because it was for network TV.

    The Last Kingdom

    I just finished binging season 3 and thought it was great. It's been a while since I watched s1 and s2 so it's hard to compare but I very much enjoyed it.

    Gwent - Standalone Game

    Anyone else trying out the new homecoming update? I'm still getting into it, but I really like it so far. Tons of changes that I'm enjoying.

    What did you just read?

    So I just finished this series, and liked it overall despite some flaws. The battles were pretty well done though a lot of the characters felt....flat, and the world was an odd mixture of well made and described in some places and completely one dimensional in others. Still though, I enjoyed it...

    The Black Company

    Are the later books any good? I remember reading the first trilogy many years ago and loved it, but struggled after the first 3. I'm planning to re-read them since it's been so long I barely remember the series and want to give it another go.

    The D&D thread

    Yeah we use roll20. When we play it'll probably be evenings EST timezone. I'll likely be DM'ing.

    Anyone interested in an occasional weekend game? I'm looking for another person or two to play.

    Board Games

    Any recommendations for games for 4-6 people? Or even up to 8? So far we've doing some cataan with up to 6 players (got the expansion for more players), 7 wonders, and Twilight Imperium. I'm always looking for another option or two.

    The Expanse

    And the most amazing part about this show is that each season is somehow BETTER than the one preceding it. It went from 76% - 95% - 100% (seasons) on RT for example. That said, even season 1 is still fantastic.
  37. Zyke

    The Expanse

    That was an awesome finale. I can see how they definitely tweaked the ending to let it finish off the series if that what was going to be it, but I'm so glad Amazon took it up. I'm a big fan of the books too and really think this show is largely doing them justice. I'm hyped as hell for next season.
