  1. Past hour
  2. Suzume...Hyoutan Suzume (1959). It's a really great movie...well, maybe it's a great movie, I don't understand Japanese too well and nobody ever bothered to translate it, but yeah, it's probably a great movie. I got the impression that the narrative was some really high brow, deep thought, complex feelings kind of stuff, but it thankfully wasn't too heavy on the piano, so it was nice to see Makoto Shinkai finally branch out a little from his usual fare. I was a little miffed that @Sarex wouldn't recommend something like this to me, but it is rare that we agree on something, so I suppose he probably was just exercising an understandable level of caution. Luckily, there was no need for that here: when you've got such cutting edge art and animation like the above, I don't think you really need anything else anyways, .
  3. Today
  4. So i wanted to try the following build or something close to it: However, i'm playing on PoTD in Expert Mode, and since i'm not going to be able to know all the stat requirements for all dialog checks before hand i'd like to at least have 14 base resolve so i can cover most cases just by applying some basic bonuses before hand and keep my resolve as high as i can at all times. Now, i instinctively feel for a build like that i can just dump dextery and maybe constitution too, but i'm not sure if there are "caveats" i'm not aware of yet. I wouldn't mind being able to raise perception too a bit but i think that would just be pushing it.
  5. Im signed in but it doesn’t let me play multiplayer but when I use my pc it works fine and it says I’m signed in on another device, I used a different account on my steam deck It still doesn’t work.
  6. I agree. I think that it's finally time to make all explosion and candy effects blockable (or at LEAST perfect blockable). Many of the attacks are straight up UNBLOCKABLE and UNAVOIDABLE and WILL KILL YOU. There's no way to avoid the damage, and there's no way to resist it either.
  7. My bad, it was the wrong link. That was another attack on US forces but Iranian proxies were responsible for US embassy attack and they acknowledged it , to quote your link " A pro-Iranian group calling itself the Islamic Jihad Organization took responsibility for the bombing in a telephone call to a news office immediately after the blast. The anonymous caller said, "This is part of the Iranian Revolution's campaign against imperialist targets throughout the world. We shall keep striking at any crusader presence in Lebanon, including the international forces."[8] The group had earlier taken responsibility for a grenade attack in which five U.S. members of the international peacekeeping force had been wounded.
  8. That isn't even the correct wikipedia article Bruce. Which about sums that post up in terms of its accuracy. The US did nothing about its embassy being bombed then because... they didn't know who had done it. Arms wise, a pending ICJ judgement of genocide against Israel would be a massive problem for Germany (and Britain, France) as it would mean they'd been abetting it, especially since the ICJ prelim was that there is a case to answer. Though I'd suspect Lexx's objection is more moral than legal. In any case, the retaliation seems to have been a damp squib, and almost literally so. Hopefully that's the end of it.
  9. I just got an achievement for getting all of BURG.L's list of quests done. I think the only bugged ones right now are the MIX.R's and the interacting with all the queens. I am going to get the MIX.R's done soon so I will hopefully get that achievement and if I do/don't I will respond to this thread.
  10. Its not that complicated to understand the sequence of events In summary Israel attacked an Iranian embassy in Syria : Iran is outraged Iran attacks Israel with missiles and drones : Israel is outraged Israel attacks Iran : Iran is outraged But all these are limited attacks in a reality of Iranian proxies attacking US interests and destabilizing the ME like the Houthis and the Red Sea terrorist attacks Also an attack on an embassy doesnt mean you " have to respond because its the same as an attack on the sovereign country " In 1983 the US embassy in Lebanon was attacked by Hezbollah\Iran and dozens of US citizens were killed and the US didnt attack Iran because of that. But saying that an attack on any embassy is unacceptable and embassies should always be off-limits https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Beirut_barracks_bombing And the international arms trade is a legal business and every country in the world has the right to buy military equipment, I dont think there is a single country in the world that doesnt have some sort of military budget Its not the selling of weapons thats an issue, its what states and governments do with those weapons thats a problem
  11. I don't get it. Didn't israel strike first again iran? Who then retaliated, and now israel realiates the retaliation? Why the hell are we giving those people weapons.
  12. The balancing of the infused bosses seems to be way too hard after New game plus 2. At the moment, it does not seem worth it to go after new game plus two, because it just gets way too hard to beat bosses. Nerf infused bosses.
  13. https://missouriindependent.com/2024/04/17/u-s-house-gop-rolls-out-aid-for-ukraine-israel-votes-planned-on-tiktok-border-security/ I see the House will vote on Saturday on the Ukraine package and other aid I dont know if the aid was ever guaranteed because this type of funding always needs approval from Congress and the political vacillations of representatives can delay or change things And thats influenced by American citizens so very few things are " guaranteed " unless the US is actively involved in its own war But the whole inconsistent MAGA ideology was part of this delay and pushback at least for some of the GOP Anyway we still need the vote to happen so lets see how that goes
  14. Pretty big admittance from a company. Maybe they actually have a chance of getting their act together. https://www.eurogamer.net/cities-skylines-2-publisher-refunds-dlc-and-admits-we-let-you-down
  15. Would probably drive a fair few people mad with its clunkiness (especially early on) but it's hands down the best RPG based on ~1400 Bohemia I have ever played.
  16. I am playing on Pc steam. I have a single player world I have been playing on since I started playing. I switched between medium to mild. At the beginning of 1.4 I got all the Mix.R's done but didn't get the achievement. I also didn't get the achievement for dealing with all the ant queens. I did this quest twice and still didn't get it. The last achivement i got was beating the infected broodmother and i got the achievement for that but that was 12 hours before the 1.4 update.
  17. Yes I agree but for me I have never played a porn game before, Romance in games is different to this and its part of expected party interaction if you on some epic quest to save the world. I always think of Conan and his interaction with women on various quests . Thats typically how I RP my character and its CG if you compare it to D&D alignment If I want to watch porn then I will watch legitimate adult movies, I wont use a game for that but I realize everyone has different interests
  18. I probably had a bit of a crush on her when I was a young teenager in the 80's.. Old recording, not best recording quality sadly...
  19. So, my friend and I have a shared world he is the owner of but we have spent every step of this game together including the achievements all the way up to the newest update. Before the Fully Yolked update we were both 100% with our shared world and excited to get the new content and achievements. However, after the game update only the host got the new achievements even though I was the one who fed the Ant queens, and fully did all the things like walking through the door to new game plus but no achievements. I also logged out and hosted myself to see if they would pop but they didn't. Are there any other suggestions?
  20. I think about this a lot, how there are things that you can appreciate the craftsmanship of but not enjoy as much as something that's lesser on a technical level but just works better for you. Frankly I've given up on trying to rationalize it and have just accepted my broken brain.
  21. The Lair of the White Worm (1988). A very entertaining albeit rather clumsy and confused film. This was a very curious case of the villain being much more interesting and likeable than any of the main characters...initially, and then the Peter Capaldi (yes, Doctor Who) and Hugh Grant characters pull themselves together for some seriously wacky and outrageous hijinks that has the effect of making you like them as well, so in the end, you're okay with pretty much anything that might happen - whether the villain or heroes win, either way is perfectly good. Altered States is a much more well made film than this silly load of nonsense, but on the other hand, I actually liked this one exponentially more (and would rate Altered States as easily my least favorite of the Ken Russell films I've seen). This one didn't fry my brain like The Boy Friend though, so that one's still my favorite of the lot.
  22. Yesterday
  23. Define good. I'd say I admired the first game more than I liked it.
