So, where are they getting these documents? A certain golf course in Florida? The glove compartment of Biden’s Corvette?

Follow up question; why declassify things you don’t want other people to be able to see? Is there some document dump only “Americans” can look through but no posty on Reddit?

Never underestimate…

While I loathe the original concept of their leaked new OGL and glad they got the pushup they received, it is important to remember WoTC is a company, not a charity. They exist to make money first and foremost, as all companies do. The original OGL was written before digital content was even really a thing, D&D was…

Those trends could include the company’s 2021 misadventure with NFTs or its partnership with the now-defunct Google Stadia streaming service.

Its base typing is water/dark, but it will have a poison tera type, which will override its water and dark affinities.

As always, take these specs with a grain of salt. Devs/pubs always overestimate the hardware required. Or they base their specs on specific features that are absurdly expensive (e.g. ray-tracing). This is an AMD-sponsored game so no DLSS, meaning raytracing is basically non-viable unless you’re using a 4090.

Side note: Clodsire is a physical attacker, so wouldn’t Earthquake be better than Earthpower? But we also know the best attackers for these are ones that can boost attack stats, and I’m not seeing that.

If anything, Clodsire looks like it would be a better support option: lower stats with things like Chilling Water or…

Seems like it doesn’t learn Grassknot but it does learn Trailblaze, so grass is a big concern just the same (more so, imo).

Storm Drain not only redirects Water-type moves, it confers immunity to damage from them. A Storm Drain Gastrodon is immune to Water-type moves. Storm Drain also boosts Sp. Atk. when hit with a Water move, which gives Gastrodon another advantage.

I believe you have an error about breeding. In the new games, breeding for moves is replaced by having an empty move slot on the pokemon you want the “egg move” for while holding a mirror herb with the pokemon who should learn it. That’s what we had to do for Belly-Drum Azumarill, remember? 

I love Scarlet/Violet but man, the performance issues are not overblown.

The “Game Pass has no games” horseshit that video game bloggers peddle is a bit played out, don’t you think?

This year, Microsoft has only released one new game for Xbox and PC that was developed by one of its own internal studios: the historical narrative game Pentiment by Obsidian.

I don’t care how far he gets, as long as he goes.

Correct, the first sentence was mocking the article’s conclusions drawn, the second was suggesting the (sarcastic/imaginary) fix for their attitude problem. I’m glad it was eventually coherent (I don’t actually understand Lex’s reply to it).

Took me a few reads but I think the first sentence was meant to be sarcastic and they’re actually happy with the games that Game Pass has. (I, too, am extremely happy with Game Pass and if it manages to prove that AAA gaming is overrated and overvalued and we get a renaissance of incredible indie games, then more…

That is genuinely refreshing to hear. It has occurred to me, the significance of this tool for people who struggle with physical challenges that would impede them from creating art in the traditional way. I am very happy for you! I really can’t wait to hear what many others who share similar difficulties make of this…

As someone with dysgraphia (I cannot write with a pen, or draw/paint for more than 5 minutes at a time without getting crippling pain in my hands), I have struggled my entire life with the desire to draw and create art, and being unable to actually learn it as a skill. The last few months has been a revelation for me,…

You’re very loud and one-note in your indiscriminate condemnation of AI art. Which in some ways, makes it cathartic to know that AI art is here to stay. It is a bigger technological evolution than going from pen and paper to digital was for art.

an artist isn’t the style or product they output, its the creativity they bring to the table. AI generated art literally cannot replace that.

Eh, honestly it felt like there was still so much room to expand on the first game. I kinda wish we’d gotten some DLC of some sort. Still, I won’t so no to a sequel either. It’s actually a problem I’ve had with their games. A lot of fun, but I always seem to want more. I wouldn’t say no to more Bastion either.
