I haven't played the 40k game to know, but that sounds about right. In the Owlfinder games they assumed players would cheese the system, so they inflated stats based around that assumption which makes stuff like heavy armor Paladin have a lot more trouble than it would in pnp. It's not impossible to solve the numbers game but it makes the game feel more like you're managing a spreadsheet than fighting tactical battles. Compared to BG3 it's not near as fun for me, as BG3 managed to make a simpler (and often very janky) system feel much more tactical than WotR, which my last run was prebuffing and steamrolling.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think Trump is going to win by peeling at least Michigan. Feels like watching a trainwreck in slow time tbh, but this has been known for over a year at this point and not only are the dems not doing some very obvious things to appeal to voters there that would cinch the state for Kamala, they're actively doubling down by refusing to meet people or kicking out former democratic politicians from events. Frankly it's baffling that Kamala and her team thought it more advantageous to pal around with Liz Cheney than bother to meet with a single Muslim when everything shows the dems are loosing Muslims, who backed Biden by a large margin last time, in droves. But maybe I'm wrong and maybe there really is a massive base of hardcore anti-Trump conservatives out there who will come on out. Seems less likely than winning the lottery though.

I think that my two playthroughs, Azata and Trickster, were pretty much the same. I've heard that those two paths are some of the lightest on unique content but still there just wasn't too much to them beyond managing a new suite of abilities and the ending slides. Guess I'll see if Lich feels different when I finally get the time to play it.

Given the rest of the site, it probably used ai. On Owlcat, I've spent loads of time on both of their Pathfinder games but they definitely tend towards being played as a spreadsheet more than tactically. No idea if the 40k game showed any growth on that front, but based on their track record I think an Owlcat PF 2e game would be pretty much unplayable as that system is very sensitive to numerical bonuses and there just isn't a way to stack the ever loving **** out of your stats.

Dandadan ep 4 - The End of ZA WARUDO Turbo Granny It's a very fast paced action episode that climaxes in a much different way than expected. As has been par for the series so far it's just incredibly visually striking, some of the best animated sequences I've seen in quite some time are in this episode. Though it's kinda telegraphed that there's something wrong with Okarun's..........Manly Essence and I guess we'll see just what that is.

Salem's Lot (2024) I think this is like the third one and it's in the genre of "ancient evil comes to a small town and gets killed after terrorizing the townsfolk". For me it wasn't bad.....it was boring. Generic and forgettable with packaged horror movie scares. I will probably remember nothing of it within a week. I think you're the fifth or sixth person to reccomend this to me, and I've decided to catch it this weekend.

.....What the ****? How the hell did that **** get greenlit?

Is it a pretty even split so that you can just stop or fast forward?

It's very funny seeing the dip**** brigade get big mad when it's pointed out that the Imperium of Man is in fact a dystopia and not something aspirational.

I think it's funny that Republicans spent years cultivating (accidental or purposeful is up in the air, probably both) a group of deranged lunatics who want to spray bullets into crowds for unhinged reasons (in addition to the cops I mean) and now that it's finally happening to their crowds instead of schools or grocery stores people have become so used to mass shootings it doesn't really register more than a shrug. Reap the whirlwind.

My parents love (well loved in my dad's case RIP) shellfish and will eat the hell out of it. I like it when it's been done well, but as a kid my mom would really overcook (and underseason) stuff and overcooked seafood is so bad that even now I am hesitant on shrimp. I do love ceviche and springrolls though. Which I almost had for dinner, but decided to get Indian food instead. Also made sure to hit up the liquor store and got a few months of booze, pretty sure I ruined someone's day by grabbing the last bottle of green chartreuse lmao.

What I remember about the Professor is that he said he hasn't kissed in a very long time and immediately started laughing so hard he broke a beaker. Truly a VolCel king. Sailor Moon, the 90's anime at least, generally worked best with the filler episodes because the canon plot is kinda dumb. Who cares what BLACK LADY was trying to do when you have 20+ episodes of Usagi and the gang being silly gooses? I don't. I'm pretty sure if we get Isekaied we're going to go on a journey to Not-Egypt to fight a hundred year old vampire gym god. Half of us are going to die horribly, but it's the memories we make on the way that count.

They got mad at us for posting in the TV thread and resurrected an AMV dumping ground to seal us away. That just means we haven't been trying hard enough. Have you learned nothing from the many filler episodes of Sailor Moon? Would the professor have given up just because his monster of the week failed to do.....honestly I forgot what he was up to in s3 besides maniacal laughter, but he didn't give up until he was forced to retire. The point is we should continue to try until it happens. As someone once said to Maggie Thatcher: "We only have to get lucky once".

Dandadan ep 2 - Attack of the Sumo Alien-Ghost Still going strong. It's very kinetic and stylish, it would have been easier to make the banana pilfering alien a cgi monstrosity out of a 10-year old videogame like many anime do, but by god this looks so much better. And going to black and white is a power move so I'm happy. Also feels like they did a speedrun on Shinji's multi-saga arc with The Other Ken Takakura in like 2 episodes. We'll see how things go after he reclaims his......manly essence from the Turbo Granny. Given that they're made by the same studio that isn't surprising. Ngl, I very much enjoyed both on a visual level but I did not reccomend Dandadan to you because if you had a seizure I did not want to be held liable or get drug to hell by a demon you summoned.

I mean it's a more positive reception than I expected, but unfortunately I think we have to delay the apocalypse for now. Hopefully @InsaneCommander comes back, because I'm pretty sure he'd dig Dandadan and I'd like to end the world on a reasonable timeline.

Well we've already got Gorth and I in there and my taste is at least different enough from Sarex and Lexx (see Villeneuve's Dune) so I think we've got at least 3 out of 4. Come on folks, let's end the world.

So that's four people who like Dandadan here. Does that mean we can start the apocalypse now or do we need a fifth rider? I forgot the rules tbh.

Mr. Vampire (1985) It's absolutely ridiculous and incredible. Not really a horror film, more like a martial arts movie where the protagonist fights hoping vampires and ghosts using both kung fu and paper talismans. Don't think I went very long without laughing. Platform (2019?) Kind of boring tbh. Basically asks the question of "what of prisons were hellholes with arbitrary hierarchies imposed that determine how you're fed?" which is pretty much just the US prison system but with less effort to do techo-dystopia.

And it's incredible. Yuge reccomend, going to be Thursday or Friday watch for me until the season ends.

I saw one of the Resident Evil films in a theater. It was terrible, but not really on the level of some of the b-movie trash I consumed as a teenager. Have not recently watched as much as I'd like. But I Saw The TV Glow was the last thing I saw in a theater and it was incredible. Maybe I'll watch Challengers this weekend. Anyone have any recs? I'm drinking quite a lot tonight so I'm primed to make very good decisions.

I tried playing Dark Souls for like 30 minutes before giving up. You know what game I didn't give up on? Fire Emblem Engage, but I should have because it's the worst game in the series. So I didn't play it in a while and instead started playing the remakes of Baten Kaitos or whatever the **** you call it and have given up on the prequel game because it is much worse than the original. So I started playing the original because I find both jrpgs and deck builder games to be nostalgic and this does both. It's a much more innovative game than pretty much anything in the genre and really taps into the weirdess jrpgs are able to hit pretty well. I also played KoF XV and for some reason it's nice to see Yamazaki scream while presumably beating people half to death. Hope he gets put in the new FF game next year.

Being unable to hold your mutagenic blood is a skill issue. Should have invested more into Fortitude saves.

I guess it's too late now, but for being a Cleric that monster didn't even bother to cast a buff or a cc spell. Someone should help him with his build tbh.

Even if only 1% of missiles hit, and that's a massive if, clearly the attack worked. Iran definitively showed that it could hit Israeli military installations and that the various missile defense Israel uses aren't ironclad. There is no question that if Israel continues to escalate that it can and will be targeted. The media has been **** on Israel for quite some time, going just by tone you'd think over the past year it was over 40k Israelis that have been killed and like 1.5k Palestinians rather than the other way around. And that was before the invasion of Lebanon and Iran's missile strike, in the coming days it's going to go back and forth between Israel being a hyper-compotent juggernaut swatting away missiles like flies to Israel being a small little baby who needs big daddy Burgerstan to come in and defend it.

I don't know if the US will directly attack Iran, but I'd say it's a lot more likely now. Whatever the case, it's almost certain that US bombs will hit Iran via Israel, and given Israel's actions over the last year I'd be surprised if they didn't target civilians. And not to lionize Iran or anything, but this "unprecedented" missile barage hit all military targets, which is a pretty notable difference than Israel's massacre in Gaza or invasion of Lebanon. Iirc, Iran said it would light every oil field in the region on fire if its oil was targeted.
