Fried roaches, yes, that's the ticket. Crunchy protein yums! As to Soylent, like with any liquid nutritional substitute goop, I'd have to wonder if living off it entire would equal some inconvenient or embarrassing intestinal issues after a while. I think I'll pass. That said, drinking a glass as a replacement meal once or twice a day wouldn't hurt anyone without an allergy to any of the ingredients. Assuming that list of ingredients they give out is accurate. But whatever ... as long as a diet one is using is working for one's personal needs/wants, that's really all that matters. Myself, I couldn't give up the fun of ripping, tearing, and masticating my food with my teeth. Growr.

Crimson Tide. Hadn't seen it in a while. It's no Das Boot, but it's still an entertaining flick. But mostly, I just miss Gene Hackman (in films..he's still alive).

Every time I watch Falling Skies (which isn't often at this point), I always wonder how much work it is for the makeup artists to make sure all those arm tattoos on Pope (Colin Cunningham) are consistent episode to episode.

I think it's more a factor that the increasing number of cable stations creating original content = more good roles available in series media than in film media. I read interviews all the time about how frustrated some actors are by the stupid scripts/films/roles that come their way...ones that don't let them stretch or really use their acting chops. eg, not interesting to the artist. Especially for middle-age/older actors. While it may be fun and a boost to the career to be in Star Trek or The Hobbit, those types of films aren't exactly actors roles - especially when they're often ensemble casts. Whereas a TV series may be more willing to give them lead, producing credit/creative control, etc. in order to get a bigger name for their show. I think it used to be, long time ago, sort of a "bad career move" for film star to go to TV (it was seen as a downgrade) but as that viewpoint changes, more are taking advantage of it.

Hm. They look kinda interesting. Downloaded.

Happy B-day, Ros. Another year older, another year none the wiser? ...the past couple weeks I've been looking for a simple coffee pot (for hubs) that isn't super tiny or super big. You'd think this wouldn't be difficult. Apparently it is.

^^ Pretty much what he said. Since players make the Foundry quests, the quality is going to vary from one extreme to another. Some people design quests to be EZ blast throughs just to do the daily quest requirement, others make crazy hard things with enemies placed in huge clumps really close together, etc. Some are meant for solo/2 playrs, some for 5, etc. There's also apparently still quite a few limitations to the Foundry editor in terms of quest pathing, dialogue pathing, etc. I tried taking a quick peek at it once, and while it's sorta interesting, it doesn't appear to be anything as complex as, say, the Elder Scrolls editors.

I think I like the snakes a bit better too ... altho, in my ideal world, what I might like best is a combo of the two. Keep the snakes, but make them a bit more wispy/smoky or something, vs. being quite as defined as in the original pic.

I could use a good mystery adventure type game (doesn't have to be 3D, but I don't like "platform" styling very much), but whenever I look for one, nothing really appeals. I wonder if GoG's version of The Last Express works. My ancient PC version had a bug that crashed the game early on, which annoyed me because it seemed like a good game.

Transparency doesn't mean Kaz's art isn't there. It's just translucent. I've seen it in other games. But yeah...I'm not highly expectant of a slider. It'd just be nice. I find translucency to give me more of the illusion that less of the screen is covered up, that's all.

Ah. Well, slider it is then. Hear that, Josh/team? Transparency slider. Gimmie.

Have they said that? I wouldn't mind some border art but I like having transparency vs. totally solid. Maybe they could have a transparency slider....

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo... Yessssssssssssssssssssss...

Raised Alchemy to lvl 5 on one toon, and decided it's a PITA. I'll level it up here and there to eventually get the dye packs, but gah ... all the potions you have to have to do the "experiments" that net you the scroll to do the level up task ... what a pain of constant material/potion tasks that you have to do. It's worse than making leather pelts/mass curing, I mean. A lot worse. So focusing on others and Leadership first. Tailoring is now 19, leatherwork and platesmith 18.5. Highest Leadership now getting close to 17, most of the others are lvl14 in it. Man does it take forever, unless you want to spend oodles rushing the less-time tasks. Been buying up green and blue Leader workers when they show up cheap on the AH, and it helps a lot, but still. Since I don't do the group stuff, I find once I reach 60, there's not much to do. Occasionally farm for mats if I feel like it. Make diamonds. That's about it. 3 chrs. are mid-30's, need to get another 3 chrs. to 30. Then I'm probably done doing any actual playing (eg, only the Gateway) until the new race/new craft.

Bill's Tavern is easy, but what other one do you do for the Rhix daily? I was doing the one with pigs, but it's a bit longer than I'd like (lazy...), heh. I haven't done the daily in a while, since I have to have two.

Cool. Lvl20? I'm finding leveling up doggie a big fat chore (McCoy is 13 now), when I already have a lvl30 panther and don't feel much like grinding areas just to level a pet. He's going to level via praying, mostly.

Oh...ok. I knew there was something being left out of the Season Pass. Got it mixed up then. My bad. I wasn't very interested in Krieg, so no loss.

Placeholder or not, I definitely like the transparency of the UI. I hope they keep that aspect. I still don't personally care much about the size of the portraits on the in-game screen, as long as they're big enough I can tell them apart in some fashion (eg, not only 5mm high, haha). I'd make a wild guess the individual character screens will have/show large size portraits there.

Haven't watched the video yet, but the screens people are posting look interesting, especially the Defiance Bay one.

I think since we already have another thread on this topic that was created a bit earlier, this one is a bit redundant.

Yeah...even those of us with the Season Pass, the Tina DLC won't be included with it this time I think. So I'll have to get it twice, for hubby and me. Oh well.

I think the staff of Obsidian should all visit that gem store and take a snapshot of them standing in that yard, holding a chunk of obsidian. Some truly lovely sights you and your family are getting to see.

This morning I woke up with a hangover, sprawled out in some huge heart shaped bed covered in silk sheets, surrounded by three lightly snoring, manly hunks. ....then I woke up for reals. Sad panda. But at least I always have the Benedict dancing gif.

Hansel and Gretel, with Jeremy Renner. I was expecting something a little more absurdly amusing ala Army of Darkness. Since it wasn't, I'd give this one a low score. But it did have what appeared to be a Siamese Twin witch with bizarre, horror-creature like fighting agility.

They already did, back in April. If you don't have the Season Pass tho, it's not free. I have it, haven't played to level. Was waiting for the Tina DLC first. ....it's called the Ultimate Vault Hunter’s Upgrade Pack, $5.
