Yeah, it was not bad. They seem to have made the MC less of a shithead than he was in the LN, or at least played off his shittiness as a joke, rather than being serious about it.

As someone who knows jack about Green Lantern lore, I thought the series was ok overall. For people who do know jack about the lore - one thing that bugged me was this talk about Hal breaking the oath. Is this the literal one they recite in the show ? Because that one is all flowery...

Cradle. If you removed the series name I would have assumed you were talking about it from your description.

Yeah, my overall impression was 'ehhhh'. It is competently executed, but nothing really stood out.

I am pretty sure you just answered your own question there. :trollface: It's like blank slate anime protagonists, except for people who kind of wish they had the balls to tell every single person who tries to interact with them to go fuck themselves.

I was thinking you were talking about Hell Mode and was confused about what everyone was talking about before it finally clicked. No, the MC of Hell Difficulty Tutorial remains a gigantic dickhead throughout.

If he did, how could they find the future diary while he is away for extra .... drama !

Dark Matter is a standalone book. The first season covers all of it and has a satisfactory conclusion to the story. If you want, you can just watch that and nothing else. S2 is all new for the tv series - that's usually a huge warning flag, but it is pretty good so far.

Bravo ! I am not sure comedy was what they were going for, but the ending of the final fight was legitimately the funniest thing I've seen all week. It just needed the cop to get run down by a truck driven by Wile E Coyote to top it off. "Lucky you had lots of scars or those 40+ 2 inch deep...

Heavy Knight is entertaining for what it is, but I can't help but feel that its target audience is people who are watching it between tik tok videos. Apparently the writers are pretty sure noone watching it has an attention spawn longer than 40 seconds, so the episodes have multiple flashbacks...

That, at least, makes sense - he was supposed to provoke the boss terrorist into blowing himself up, but wasn't convincing enough. All the rest didn't make any sense to me either - particularly 'Why didn't you just nuke those guys with the orbital laser ? What's the actual plan here ?' It's...

I'd say that's a fair subversion of expectations. I approve.

It looks unbelievably terrible - in all the right ways. When did movies get so embarrassed about being ridiculous trash ? I have a vision of some producer following the director around, and every time he says 'this is stupid, instead we should..' the producer whaps him over the head with a...

The linus one was interesting - turning Cloud into an angry lesbian wasn't what I was expecting, but it kind of works ;p It 100% fucked clair obscure though. Without going into spoilers, there's something consistent the artists are going for and the DLSS5 completely destroyed it, even ( maybe...

I had very low expectations for a season going past the end of the source material, but I have to admit, the first episode was pretty good.

Newest DLC interested me enough to start up a new run, on unfair this time around because I know what I am doing a bit better. Kicking argenta's newb trap bolter into the garbage and running a psyker instead of an officer for MC makes soooo much difference. Unfair was way easier than my initial...

Progression fantasy, canonical example being Cradle. The line can get pretty blurry though - Calamitous Bob, for example, is technically a litrpg but has less mention of stats in the entire series than some litrpg have in the first chapter.

You actually pretty much nailed the method used - publisher says X words, cut and paste appropriate number of RR chapters. Most RR -> Kindle Unlimited stories will have a similar issue given the episodic stream of consciousness style of the original stories. Some authors put more work into...

GoT intercontinental ballistic cruise ballista was amazingly dumb, but they seem to have overcorrected a bit too far here - if there's one time no-one is going to bat an eye at a dragon eating a ballista to the face, it's when it sticks its head through a gate that barely fits it, and there a...

This one isn't super original - I've played a variety of games like this - sandboxy top-down space games, mine/salvage/blow shit up to get bigger ships etc. That being said, something about it just 100% works for me, I've been way too into it recently. Easy to get into, it is pretty slow...

See this is the problem with the ADHD attention span these days, if you had actually stayed for 12 minutes It seems to be 90s late night sci-fi special in terms of production values. These days, that has to be a deliberate choice ? Maybe it's trying to be ironically bad ? Bizarrely, I saw...

Eh, probably true, but 'I don't care if it is impossible, here's a big bucket of money, try it anyway' returned some surprising results from SpaceX, I can't help but wonder what might have happened with that attitude earlier and continuing. It probably wouldn't have happened anyway, because...

Best Value Solo Leveling - I mean uh, checks notes, 'Tomb Raider King': Look, it's not literally the same guy from solo-leveling, this guy is more of an asshat - see, completely different ! Everything about this show is a cliched ripoff - but I liked it anyway. Your mileage may vary.

For 2 tank settings, set main group to assigned, second tank grp to get adds, and no-tank grp to assist grp 2. If you have to no-tank group on get adds, the reaver will taunt shit and explode themselves yeah. although reaver is always first to die anyway due to aggressive stance and emit vitae...

Whoops, I think i deleted every lore item yesterday to clean up the bank. I'll have to find where that starts.

I haven't seen any quests so far other than the Vitheo arena. There isn't a second set, as far as I can tell, but the T2s and T3s all have direct upgrades for set pieces - like the scorpion has some sexy tank gear ( the bp has nearly double the armor of the set bp ) and a ac/resist aura, which...

I've got all the t1 and t2 down, plus some of the t3 - just got past the scorpion boss, which was my biggest struggle with the UI. Pro-tip there, trying to assign all three groups to an add because you need even the tank dps backfires horribly. It makes one of the dps groups decide that the boss...

Yeah, 3 tanks isn't needed for anything I have found so far ( other than trash ironically ), generally if you have three things to tank you've fucked up a mechanic. I'm considering swapping one for another arcanist and just having a dps reaver provide the resist debuff for that group. Another...

Apparently these are meant to be filler while farming upgrade items, like a green < blue < purple upgrade. Was a bit disappointing to me, was expecting to have to make +5 base items then upgrade them. Yeah, the raid controls need some explanations of what they do and how they are intended to...

Stackable planar stones, ohhhh yeah. What's your dps against pre-raid targets look like ? I didn't notice any significant differences to anything other than windblade. Given class, I'm guessing it is just AC/resists and you are still high because you aren't retarded about using razor arrow -...

It's a weird mix - the MC is ok, other characters, like the wimpy adventurer, are downright awful and the background and landscapes are really great.

It will probably not surprise you that he has at least one full length video entirely about how some rando on reddit is *wrong*.

This is a kind of mix between a simplified civ and roguelite game. You have the usual world map, with capturing tiles, and various resources for bonuses etc, with the addition of a meta-game upgrade tree that unlocks new bonuses and features, as well as a set of 'heroes' that you can equip to...

I laughed at how little effort they put into setting up the premise. It's like they wanted to be shield hero, but couldn't come up with a good story, so they just have his dad respond to him getting the knight class like he had announced he was becoming a ladyboy prostitute who levels up by...

Also, if the AI market is so profitable that nvidia don't even both considering consumer market, why would anyone got after that rather than after the more valuable AI market ?

They certainly put the C team on the drivers, and then told them it didn't matter if they didn't know how to write drivers, they can use AI to write them.

Mage Tank is pretty fun, but never reaches greatness at any point - it's pretty consistent in quality up to date though, so if you like the early bits you'll probably continue liking it. It's a fair point on skill descriptions, but I'd also give him credit for putting a lot of thought into how...

Hah, worth it just for that change.

Bold that you think that that much memory won't cost more than the entire system this time next year ;p

Some new stuff I've liked over the last few months : Die Trying - this is a weird mix of urban fantasy, survival game, isekai and rogue-lite litrpg - I found it to be heaps of fun. Gods from a different, failing, planet/plane are fleeing the sinking ship to get to Earth and picking champions to...
