Tale

So six years? You'll have to forgive me, I'm not good at metric-imperial conversion. Edit: Okay, I just watched the teaser. Felt like Hobbit outtakes.

The preview footage from a convention, maybe Blizzcon, that leaked a while back was somewhere at the intersection of creepy and boring. Because nothing says sympathetic characters like casual ritual sacrifice.

Meat bags and blood everywhere. Whelp, passing.

Divinity: Original Sin on PS4. I'm really liking it, but it's NANOWRIMO so not sure if I'll have more time.

I can't hear you over the sound of all my foes going crazy and shooting each other.

That used to be my dominant theory, but now I think Kylo Ren and Rey might be cousins, not siblings.

Yeah, Luke Skywalker is clearly Captain Phasma.

I think so. It doesn't change the fact that they gave us the runaround for a year and a half (and counting) and that they prioritized console versions (a smart decision from a purely business standpoint) over fulfilling their belated Kickstarter duties. Off topic: I bought Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition for the PS4 yesterday. I may have also done this. I'm hooked more than I was with Wasteland's start. I think I just prefer Fantasy to Post-Apocalypse.

This may be the most important question you are asked today. Is Divinity Original Sin worth $60? Is it that much better than Wasteland 2?

You and me are enemies for life. To this day I can only think of the story as being Survivor: Star Wars edition with a bad guy who is the beach bully from those old mail order workout routine ads. I don't know what that dude's problem was, but killing people I met 5 minutes ago is just being petty.

It feels like CCP acquiring White Wolf was just yesterday. And they never did anything notable with it. Which I guess explains why they're selling it.

Illum was just a setback? Back before I got in the Beta, I had such wonderful hopes for Bounty Hunter. The one thing I hoped is that I'd run around getting quests from Malgus, be the Boba Fett to his Darth Vader, the guy he calls on when he can't trust anyone in the Empire to do it right. Nope, some stupid contest.

I would have expected better of the shotgun and pistols.

Were all your guys riflemen? They have low chance to hit close.

Can I play as a droid Bounty Hunter yet? Or at least kill that Devaronian they try to force on me?

Pandorum is great. I watch it almost anytime it's on TV. It's probably top 5 Space Horror films. Heck, I'd say top 3, but then we'd get into an argument about whether Aliens is actually a horror film.

I'll disagree and say that they're bad movies. Well produced, but still bad. With awkward tonal shifts and action sequences that drag.

I finally watched the Rogue Cut. With Star Wars on the mind lately I'm very wary of watching these extended cuts, especially ones with changes this significant, but it was overall very good. Quite a few scenes are slowed down and I think most of the added stuff show character. Rogue herself is completely pointless, but most of the runtime is simply extending old scenes with more banter. The truly new scenes are things like Rogue's rescue, which is intercut with Magneto's attack on the Pentagon, which is lots of fun. The only addition I didn't particularly like was Xavier flying the jet. Sadly, Sir Stewart does not sell being a pilot. RE: Hobbit I think I'm going to skip even getting Battle of the Five Armies. I have the first two, but I've already determined that I'm pretty much never going to watch them again. So why bother? I guess I kept hoping Battle of Five Armies would be good and save the trilogy, but that never happened.

I gave up on Talos Principle. The story kind of tacked on and there's way more puzzles than the mechanics can keep interesting. So I started up Wasteland 2 on PS4. Really liking it, though it's not grabbing me to binge it. I just finished Ag Center and checked out Highpool. Gila Monitors are simply the worst. It's such a weird difficulty jump. Every raider in Highpool I can rush with my two characters that have a single point in melee and I'll crush them in a single blow. The Gila Monitors instead poison half my group for 11 damage a tick and take focus fire from the entire group to down one per round and a half.

Finished Tales from the Borderlands, Telltale's best game. It actually starts off pretty weak, and I can't put my finger on why. I want to blame the soundtrack, but that's kind of my go-to for "I have no ****ing clue." The first 15 minutes or so just felt like a low budget installment and I wondered where it all went. Once you hit halfway into this final episode, you find that budget. Because it's packed in there. This game pulls everything you want out a finale and I'm simply in love with it.

Nah. Luke has a cybernetic hand and you're comparing it against a dark glove. This trailer even shows the guy without the helmet on. His hair is fabulous.

stop the last trailer at 1:41 and then look at the poster Luke scooped out C3P0 and is hiding inside?

This has been a popular theory for a long time. Rumor's also been going around that Rey's first name is Kira. Kira Rey, Kylo Ren. Twins. But the name rumor hasn't had much push in a while. I still like the idea myself. Someone has to be a Skywalker, the first trailer basically confirmed that. Having it be both a good guy and a bad guy keeps the focus on the family.

Only if the enemies have as much trouble finding you and shooting you from a distance as I do. I'd stay away from windows for a while, ShadySands. Orogun1 might get lucky.
