As the parent of a 4.5 year old this seems an ideal entry point into the series.

“It’s ok Tony! We had our own rampant AI outbreak here, about two hundred years ago. Oh what a day that was! Took all afternoon to fix.”

4th edition. The combat was all about placement, movement, and so on. It was very difficult to do 4e combat without miniatures.

Nobody took the hat. We’re just calling you out for wearing a racist symbol in public. Don’t want to be treated like a racist? Don’t wear a swastika or MAGA hat around people.

Dipshits: if you don’t want to be treated like a racist shit goblin, do not go out in public wearing a klan hood, swastika, or MAGA hat.

It’s a hard show to recommend. It can be popcorn fun but I don’t call them Time Idiots for no reason. It’s backed up on my dvr right now so it’s possible they made some improvements? I will say any episodes John Constantine makes an appearance are a treasure but that’s more about Constantine.

My very first Battletech game was at summer camp. I was a kid and I barely understood the rules, but tried it under the supervision of a slightly older and more experienced player. I was getting trounced of course, and had lost my weapons, so my final desperate move was to charge and punch the cockpit and damned if I…

Best wishes! Get well soon. And good for you, another GA folk. (howdy neighbor? How y’all doin’? All that)

A coworker said recently “I think I’ll see if my wife wants to go see Rampage tonight” and I had to gently break it to him that, Rock or no, she absolutely did not want to see that. He reported in the next day that she vetoed it faster than any awful movie in recent memory.

As in “press A to play”, no one ever said that’s its easy...

That is a pretty solid list. Morrowind in an easy to play format alone is worth it, let alone Jedi Academy, Jade Empire, and Republic Commando. And frankly Hunter is a fun 4p co-op too.

I... I don’t know how to process the words you just typed. But ok, Far Cry 5! You do you!

So, flippant as this is going to sound I have to ask: what are the odds they put a “real” ending in the DLC? Because all these endings sound like garbage at best and deliberate final act twists that lack actual resolution at worst.

THIS! Every time I read a story about these entitled idiots I keep thinking that if they were even slightly smart they’d bend the fuck over backwards to reverse this trend because we’re about two steps away from setting up a guillotine and storming the Bastille.

After two weeks of mortal combat with my laptop I have a satisfactorily modded Skyrim up and running, steam link engaged, and controller Bluetoothed and functional. I genuinely thought I’d done it all in skyrim years ago but modded out its a whole new game.

Gotta say, I’m frankly pretty pumped about this. It already sounded like a fun chill exploration game, and a massive new update and available on my home system sounds perfect.

I mean it’s a small town but not the middle of the ocean. I went to school out there, it wasn’t a tiny town but it wasn’t huge and more than a decade ago I had cell service reliably. Plus you have to factor in things like land lines and sat phones. Still it’s not a huge stretch I suppose.

Wow he sounds like a real gem. Hard pass.

Aw man now I want mac and cheese.

Seems the cult controls the local media, that I’d actually buy. My biggest concern is internet? If they haven’t locked down literally all outside communications this shit will end up viral on Twitter in like thirty five minutes.
