    Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025)

    It's the other way around, the final arc is being made as 3 movies which crunchyroll will probably dissect into episodes later on. Movie is really great, animation is as expected top shelf and it had great sound too. Kids and I both really enjoyed it.

    Summer 2025 Anime Thread

    God damn that was great. The scene where Akaza Giyu and Tanjiro get split apart into their own towers and the camera is rotating around the arena is absolutely ridiculous. It must be a blow to other animation studios egos when they see what ufotable are able to do.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    This game is excellent, it's definitely GOTY material. Story, gameplay, music, atmosphere, setting, visuals, all top shelf. I could nitpick it here and there because of course it's not perfect (nothing is) but plenty of that has been done in this thread already. I actually haven't read any...

    Doing a collab like that with Amy Lee is brave because it inevitably makes them look pretty inept by comparison. Song is alright though.

    No Man's Sky

    I've bought this game on xbone, PS5 and PC, money well spent. The new shipbuilding is really cool but it hurts how bad the base ones are compared to my godly sentinel ship. I'm going to have to do a hell of a lot of component farming to make it usable it seems.

    Anyone up for 10 hours of Scott Horton? Didn't think I'd be willing to spend so much time on a podcast not made by Dan Carlin but I just might.

    I wonder how far this season will get. Seems unlikely that they finish Alabaster arc unless they fast forward a fair bit.

    Rimworld

    Rimworld doesn't have bundles that give you a discount for buying all of the DLC together does it like Stellaris does? There is one that includes the base game and latest 2 DLC but it doesn't reduce the price if you already own parts of the bundle.

    Summer 2025 Anime Thread

    It's been a multi year project but my son & I just finished watching all of one piece together. Watched ep1136 today. My son was mad into it and I just liked spending time with him watching it but it wasn't until Skypiea that I started enjoying it and then from Water7 on it's been great. Almost...

    Igorrr's new album comes out in 2 months and it's going to be absolutely amazing if it's all as good as the 3 tracks he's already released. This latest song he released is heavy as fuck, I cannot stop listening to it it's so good. I can't get the speakers in my study to go loud enough to do it...

    Superman: Legacy (2025)

    This movie isn't bad. Coherent story, likeable superman, wide cast of characters were well used. I was pleasantly surprised.

    Playstation 5

    Ah yeah it's a pro, specifically CORSAIR MP600 PRO LPX 2TB I did google plenty of other people reporting issues both with that model of SSD but also many others with the launch ps5. Overheating, crashes, similar to what I'm seeing. PS5 seems very limited in the error reporting, it shows definite...

    The SSD is a Corsair MP600. Yeah PS5 is a launch one. Trading up to a PS5 pro is a good idea maybe I'll just do that.

    Playstation 5

    I've been having an issue with my PS5 ever since I added a second SSD into it. When it is working hard for an extended period it suddenly powers off. I have to pull out the power cord for 30 seconds to get it to turn back on. I'm guessing it's overheating and the power supply is switching off...

    Everquest II

    I dunno, didn't anashti sul have the best ever pop for an EQ2 TLE? I think it's still the highest pop server. It didn't have pay2win or AAs.

    Barry Lyndon (1975)

    A masterpiece as many of Kubrick's movies are. Maybe I'll pick up a 4k copy to go with the collection I already have.

    Ahsoka

    Natural Born Killers was written by Tarantino so it would have been pretty hard to fuck that up for someone vaguely competent which Oliver Stone obviously is.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I don't think anything is actually missable. There are things that drop in areas you can't go back to but you can get those drops somewhere else. Definitely do the arena as Maelle though because the alternate way of getting that extremely good item is a bit challenging.

    The point when I got to phase 3 and realised I'd have to finish him off with my B team who I'd never used before was when I decided to build a 1 shot team.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Maelle is obviously the best but Monoco should be able to do a lot of heavy lifting too. Many of his skills do absurd amounts of damage.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I had exactly the same issue and eventually found the best places to go at the start of act3: First 2 missions on the endless tower. Maelle's side quest. The main objective. Then after you've gained a bit of power from those, dark shores is an excellent place to farm grandiose catalysts.

    Stellaris

    I was playing Stellaris recently just prior to 4.0 and it was in a very good state. Some of the recent DLC have been quite good. I've been keeping an eye on 4.0 - it includes a major change to the way pops and jobs work and it seems like it has some pretty severe balance issues.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    The catalysts drop once you're in the right level content. The Axon dungeons will give you 50+ of the lvl19 catalysts and you'll start seeing the 20+ catalysts there too. There's a merchant you can access in act2 that sells level 14 weapons.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I just went 99 AGI and then luck on every char. Go first, kill everything before they move. In late game it can be worthwhile moving stats around to whatever boosts your weapon as the scaling becomes pretty amazing at high weapon levels. Apart from weapon scaling Defence and vit are kind of...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Just play on an easier difficulty if the parry timing is a problem for you. Apparently that makes the parry window easier. Or just putting it on the easiest difficulty will probably allow you to face tank (almost) everything if you don't fight overlevelled bosses. There are even lumina designed...

    Aion Reawakening

    Aion was great for a while, at launch the small scale PvP was excellent, rifting into levelling areas and causing mayhem with my small group. Much like warhammer online once there were a bulk of players at high levels and most pvp was 30+ vs 30+ it turned to shit.

    Just picked this up on PS5 yesterday. Immediately hated the QTE but after 15 minutes or so I trained myself to not even look at the visual for them and just respond to the sound which made them all trivial - so now I love the QTE. After getting by on dodge for a while I decided to just try to...

    Thunderbolts* (2025)

    I fell asleep in the cinema and missed a decent chunk of the middle of this. The kids enjoyed it though and I liked that the finale wasn't two people punching each other and destroying a whole city. The going into your own nightmare part was pretty neat.
