Maybe it's time Brussels got some freedom dropped on it.

Finished part 2 of Stone Ocean. I guess we'll have to wait a while for the rest to drop, but @InsaneCommander will have fun with the rest of it. Including more efffeffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee screams, body horror, and at least one instance of weird tongue stuff. Also Uncle DIO episode 6 - the start of the harem. I'm pretty sure that the hero they were talking about is going to become someone else who follows around Wolfgunblood.

To me the AI art looks like a frame from a sci-fi movie without motion smoothing turned off. It's ok when you're not looking closely but when you do there's just something off about it. I'll second the "bleh".

Played around with builds yesterday, tried to see if the Arcane Rider could make a spell combat full attack with mounted skirmisher* but the Horse kept killing stuff before the rider. Eventually Catastrophe missed a bite and it looks like spell combat does indeed work like that. *Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is a nerf from a mod as the default game behavior lets riders make full attacks with a move by default.

You know that terrible sound people make when they're slowly but surely dying? That awful utmost pity inducing wail of the reversal of the life process? That's the sound I hear from all these anti hypocrites, clinging to a desperate hope that the tide can somehow be reversed and cannot accept the fact that the world is changing in big ways. Stay tuned for 2023, we're just getting started here

Well there are weapons with reach and 19-20 or x3 critical, so aktucally it's about the combo of reach and crit range. In general I think that ewp is a sink to anyone who isn't already getting a lot of feats, and even in those cases there's usually something more effective to grab early to mid game, so most martials will prefer just using a glaive or halberd (or whatever other reach weapons with 19-20 or x3 there are) instead of blowing a precious resource. Fauchards and Falcatas are probably the best ewp choice though, because they do bring unique combinations that can't be found elsewhere. Of course all of this goes out the window when you consider itemization of the game itself, because if the best weapon a type has some lame effect then it doesn't matter what the base stats of a weapon are. And because weapon with less impressive base stats can end up with getting a 18-20 crit range or some other crazy ability.

Then I guess that means we better gather up a posse to battle Prince Charles (and THE WORLD) in Egypt.

If we're talking about the thief, he's tied to a couple of (not so) random encounters thay trigger in specific places. For the other scoundrel, you have to pay him some cash or finish his initial quest. The cash recruits him and the quest gets him to stay.

Wouldn't surprise me. Should probably drive a stake through his heart after he dies to make sure he doesn't come back.

He's undead.

Boat Arc 2.0 here we come.

The scotch drinks I've made and can vouch for are the blood and sand and a minty scotch old fashioned I made after reading about it. Frankly, I'm not a fan of mixing anything with carbonated sugar water because for everything that can work with it I can think of something better to make. Now something I am fond of mixing is hot chocolate and bourbon or Irish whiskey. It's surprisingly good, the whiskey cuts through the dense chocolate and opens it up nicely. Adding amaretto or a cream (chocolate) liqueur makes it amazing.

I'd be hesitant to make a proper mixed drink or ****tail with the good ****, let alone mix it with soda.

Scimitars and Falchions already exist for that, the main draw for Fauchards is the crit range with reach which I don't think any other weapon has. Your broader point is correct though, do not sleep on unique or powerful effects because of a lower enhancement bonus. The corollary I'd add is that weapons with a save effect are much less useful than they appear and should be judged as subpar, especially on higher difficulties.

Because if you say stop motion animation recreations of iconic romance films with preserved amphibians people tend to look at you weird.

More JoJo Stone Ocean. What I saw wouldn't be believed and is somehow weirder than the description. Oh, and Jotaro doesn't even take off his hat when he's in a coma. Only negative thing is that I can't stop hearing the villain as Daru and.....yeah. SUPER ULTRA ELEGANT! I thought it was a nice slice of life sort of thing. I'd tepidly reccomend Uncle from Another World, but that's a real shot in the dark.

Peter Straub had passed. I remember reading The Talisman and enjoying it when I was a kid.

More Stone Ocean. A bone turned some people into trees and made a green baby.

I was looking around in Toybox for bite attacks and it seems like several Shifter abilities have entries in the game. At first I thought it was for the Feral Champion or a mod, but it looks like they go beyond what FC gets. I wonder if this means Shifter is going to be introduced in the EE or future DLC?

I don't even get out of the cave, pretty much I test to make sure the build actually works and then file it away for a future playthrough. I don't want to do a full respec because I want the experience of playing through the game as the concept. Respecing bad feats and spells is one thing, but I don't want to change (base) class or race.

Cinema and Movie Thread: The Gorth Cut

While I could write up a paragraph how corn represents sorrow, I honestly think David Lynch just thinks it looks interesting when filmed and worked backwards from there.

In PnP you get the option to retrain spell selection for spontaneous casters and I believe that Call of the Wild for Kingmaker managed to implement it. Probably wouldn't help with your issue, but it would be a nice touch given how some spells fall off late game. afaik, any respec options (mod and ingame) are done in cc or the levelup screen. Tedious, but makes sense in a lot of ways. Looking at the mods I've got, one of them makes Demon Rage work with Limitless Rage, so the (imo) most underwhelming mythic path just shot up quite a bit. Time to play around and see what happens. EDIT: Looks like Shamans are missing their capstone ability....even though Oracles have them and they're pretty much interchangeable for the same Mysteries and Spirits. I guess I could add it in via ToyBox, but it seems like a damn big oversight.

I too love surrealist nonsense and, perhaps atypically, don't care if something makes sense as long as it's interesting so the work of David Lynch works really well for me. The first film of his I saw was Lost Highway on IFC when I was in high school and I was just blown away by how different it was from most of what I had seen at that point, even though I was confused as hell. Even beyond the plot they way it looked and sounded was like nothing I had seen in the movies I had been able to see in theaters or rent at the Blockbuster.

Maybe, but we've seen less assuming stands than Hermit Purple still be deadly, like the electric outlet that Mariah used. Also I'm disappointed in that meme for not including the actual dog stand user.
