There are no gimp suit ponyplay races.
They've gone too far, gimp suit ponyplay should be a part of every videogame.

Hope the procedure goes well and your dad recovers KP.
He seems to be doing better but 40+ years of smoking have ****ed his lungs. Procedure will hopefully happen next week and then we'll see if he has to go to physical rehab or can go home.

Vampyr is an interesting concept and decent story trapped in a bad videogame. I think that the Disco Elysium (which I know was released after Vampyr) approach is much more enjoyable than doing terrible gameplay like Vampyr or Torment, putting more emphasis on Johnathan's investigative abilities and medical knowledge instead of clumsily slicing into thugs or ghouls would have been more fitting and less boring. It also looked weird at times for me.

I started watching Psycho-Pass.
I like it, it's a mystery set in a cyberpunk dystopia with socioeconomic philosophical commentary coming out every episode. So far it's solid seinen, the kind of stuff a lot of western live action shows would love to be able to pull off but can't because they get cancelled after 1 season.

eXestinZ (1999) - I don't think videogames are gonna be like this tbh
It's pretty good, kinda goes thematically with Paprika in some ways and is the sort of Cronenberg body horror that's not really horror but something else.
Phantom of the Paradise - so this is where Miura (rip) got the design for Femto
It's incredible. I thought it'd just be a 70's rock take on Phantom of the Opera but it is so much more than that. So many gorgeous scenes and outrageous performances make this a must see.

A few days ago my dad got checked in the hospital for a heart attack, apparently he had one 3-4 weeks ago and had just been kind of hobbling around, given how heavy of a smoker he was and the health effects of that it tracks I guess. Hopefully his lungs continue to improve and he'll get a procedure this Saturday so he can go home.

Spy X Family s2 finale - Anya faces get a backseat to Bond faces, with Twilight laughing at the skinny wet dog. I guess I don't have a problem with the dog episodes but was kinda disappointing to see Anya and the School stuff to finish off. At least they're off the boat.
Paprika (2006). Wow, what an experience. It's sad that Kon died so young, the man easily had several more projects like this in him and the world is less without them. Anyways the film itself is stunning with the parade sequences alone having more artistic merit than whole series, it's one of the better portrayals of dreams in cinema which makes a very strange overlap with Dust Devil (1992) that I just watched (no watch @Bartimaeus, you will hate it). Hands down reccomend, no caveats.

Dust Devil (1992)
It's a very weird film, an acid western that dips its toes into horror but doesn't quite dive in. From what I read the film was a victim of the infamous Weinstein (yes that Weintstein) cut and lost about a quarter of runtime. It could have definitely used it, particularly near the end of the film, but what's left is still good enough to be a confusing nightmare with grimy yet striking visuals and a foreboding score.

I haven't played the game properly in a while, but I've had multiple people I would have not expected to mention the game to me bring it up. For better or worse BG3 seems to have broken through in ways that few other games, let alone rpgs, have. Honestly it's kind of incredible to see everyone from occultist zoomers to thrice-divorced almost-boomers play this ****ing game. Probably the closest to seeing Star Wars: A New Hope on release that we'll get.
I'd say the only games I've heard anything remotely similar for in 2023 are Alan Wake 2 and Tears of the Kingdom, both of which appear to be honest to goodness masterpieces to me, but they're still on a smaller scale than BG3. Which says a lot in the latter case because Legend of Zelda is a juggernaut. I guess BG3 won't see anyone trap the netherbrain in a fruit stall though.

My daughter was pretty obsessed with this movie as a kid and wanted to be a drummer because of it. We've been watching the new animated version, but it doesn't have the same magic.
The anime is better tbh, it's cool to see more development for Ramona and the evil exes plus it has Will Forte.

Scott Pilgrim vs ZA WARUDO The World (2010)
I think I saw this after I graduated high school and maybe a couple of times after that. It's weird coming back to the movie because in my head it kinda bled together with another early 2010s movie with Michael Cera in a band, but it's honestly pretty great.

So my TtA playthrough got borked due to mods so looks like I'll get to do that again before I do LoN. So I am rerolling Through the Ashes with an Elemental Ascetic/Elemental Scion Kineticist Oread and so far so good. Monk AC + Elemental Fists is honestly pretty cool and so far is working better than shifter claws or monk fists for TtA, the lower bab is the only real problem but that's only going to be like -2 to hit.
Well I was wrong, Elemental Ascetic does not play well with Elemental Scion or any abilities that change the damage dice (size or number) of Kinetic Blast. The gimmick was cool at least.

The Discord Mod surely? Forums are so 2004.
Also The Twitch Streamer, The YouTuber, The InstaGrammer, The FaceBooker, The X (formerly known as Twitter)er...
I consider Reddit and Discord to be forms of forums (hon hon hon), broadly speaking.

Since all chaos marines are immortal, all those crusaders are the same anyway.
Bad guys in 40K have such plot armour, if they were to get shot in the eye point blank, they would blink in the very last micro-second, the bullet would ricochet off the eyelid, out of the book and kill the reader.
And here I thought it was the price point that kept people out of 40k, but I guess getting killed by a book will cut down on potential players.

I'm not going to wade into escapism or the polysemic nature of language, but I can relate to what @Azdeus is saying and what @Hawke64 mentioned about pay to win (aside from exploiting gambling addictions, which is bad on its own terms). It would be very bad for players who regularly play a big multi-player game to have to deal with pay to win screwing everything up by shifting the meta towards paying for stuff (beyond the normal price or subscription) or get ****ed. It's bad design for the long term because it makes needing to pay for stuff having a much larger part of the game than skill and you'll end up with a shrinking base of players until you're only left with those dedicated enough to consistently pay for stuff or enjoy suffering.
Thankfully I don't play much besides single-player and don't run into too much of it, but if I did play multi-player stuff I'd jump ship the second they introduced pay to win horse****.

my dad unironically loved Lynch's Dune and took me to see it in a cinema. I still have (I think) the making of book he bought somewhere around.
I watched it again after the new Dune (Part 1) and right now I think it's better. But I also thought that Dune Part 1 was pretty much a 2+ hour advertisement for the sequel and also have......strange taste in general.

Make the inhuman man-worm show up early. Paul can see the future or some ****, let him see the future of the man-worm.

That is book 3, which I doubt they will do a movie for. Book 1 an 2 are good material, 3 goes off the deep end.
I have never read Dune and most of my knowledge is from the 1984 movie. I just think the man-worm is funny.
