Manticore is very cool if you’re playing with an alchemy emphasis. Don’t overlook the Tesham Mutna armor/steel sword either; it looks great and you absorb life energy from your kills if you use it. There are better armors and swords at my level but I’m having so much damn fun I won’t change.

fortunately my short term memory is shit

Welcome! Of course you realize, you have til now violated the Internet law that requires you to post a picture of your cat if you mention your cat. Please take cute picture of cat in desk cubby to comply.

Huzzah! It’s back! I love viewing these after a difficult late shift at work!

Alchemy; once you get some basic magic and combat boosts put the points into Alchemy. The blade oil protective and combat boosts are great, but the best is Synergy. Synergy got me past that effing Caretaker. It boosts all your active abilities up to 50% at the max level.

What? I started a new game on Death March after Blood and Roses came out; I just started B&R; am I gonna have to start again??? And after I finally beat that effin Caretaker.

Gaunter O’Dimm and those flippin’ Crones - some of the best villains anywhere. And Trolls for best comic relief.

Hope they can keep most of them.

I’m still waiting for a Godzilla appearance timer on the new film. Gods know there were enough purists who counted the seconds it was on screen in the 2014 movie, compared to the other films. I’ve done several searches but can’t find an update yet; guess they only do that for the American versions.

I find it very telling that when I try searching “Godzilla screen time” there is nothing easy to find about Shin Godzilla. The G Truthers were all over the 2014 film (which wasn’t all that short of appearance time) but I did read a couple of complaints about all the talking going on in the new movie.

Those Crones are the creepiest villains. Loved ‘em.

I wish I had another shot at that final Crone after a “good” ending, rather than only if Geralt’s life completely falls apart. I also wanted to know how the Bloody Baron’s attempt at healing his wife went. And if Priscilla gets her voice back.

Good on you for the original column. If I bothered to watch the Olympics, or be concerned about one of the most corrupt extravaganzas on the planet, I’d agree 100%. Get the horses out unless we can get some centaurs bred up. Genetic Chimera research - hurrah!

I did it a long time ago; it was delicious, though I did like using organic unsweetened vanilla yogurt.

Cespedes to Mets: YOLO! Carpe fuckin Diem! You think the guys who run those private golf clubs will let me play anything besides a muni course once I’m out of baseball?

Now that could be a helluva movie.

So, to be fair, have any of the Godzilla fundamentalists done the “minute count” for Godzilla’s appearances in the new movie? I really want to know how much he/it shows up in this one.

Forget his record, when this guy retires it will be a damn shame for all of us who loathe the puffed-up pomposity of the NFL.

There was one bit in the last trailer where G had horrendous thunderthighs. I mean, that’s the general look it’s always had, but this is extreme. With the excessive size of this version’s tail, it looks like someone rammed Manda right up the big G’s ass.

Gods, this is sickening. This is a decision maker whose work affects millions, yet there is no chance in hell of educating this prolapsed anus with anything that contradicts his constricted worldview.
