Immunities were introduced to PoE with White March after whining on the forum. Like a lot of other things. All in the name of balance in a single player game.

Did you turn off level scaling or set it to only scale upwards? Because enemy placement can be really weird without full scaling. I turned it off and got waylaid by pirates way above my level right out of the tutorial - and right next to the first place you go right after getting the your ship fixed, so it was definitely not the case of being someplace I wasn't supposed to go.

I'm impressed she sat through The Motion Picture without any real investment in the show.

I really enjoyed both Firefly and Serenity, but Serenity had that TV-show-goes-movie issue of feeling like an extended episode. Star Trek: The Motion Picture and both X-Files movies had the same problem. They would have been fine as an hour of TV but not so much as a feature film - to say nothing of being feature film length. DTV versions often aren't better, like SG1: The Ark of Truth or SG1: Continuum.

There's a reason these didn't do well, and it wasn't the genre.

Feels like I yesterday when I stumbled upon his WoW stuff. Didn't care much for the rest he did but RIP, way too early.

This was on TV when I was little. Uhm, careful, might be NSFW, hence the spoiler.

Definitely. The action scenes might have had some tension. The one you see in the trailer where Chewie is heading towards a rock outcropping on a train? Guess what. He makes it.

I like his letter to Kim Jong Un. It reminded me of the letters we had as homework in first grade, just in a different language.

That reminds me of something from WoT's funny threads.

I haven't played since 3.0 came out and it doesn't look like I'm going to. I keep my game up to date because I "intend" to at least play through the story once at some point (and finished the ones I haven't completed yet, like the consular) but I keep not doing it. Yeah.

Sexist jerk.

'98 was only like the best year in gaming ever. edit: Unless you're SonicMage of course. Then it wasn't.

Just came back from Solo. I... uhm... let's for a moment disregard that Solo was eve more fan-fictiony than Rogue One was, if someone told me half a year ago that I'd walk out of Solo less disappointed than The Last Jedi I would have asked if they could pass the magic mushrooms. That's not to say that the movie was good. I almost fell asleep after having a rough last night. Being tired sure played into it but the film - for me - was entirely devoid of tension and felt like nothing at all was at stake. That might not be the fault of the movie alone, it's a prequel that deals with Han Solo. So yeah, of course we get to see the Kessel Run done in 12 parsecs, Han meeting Chewie and getting the Falcon. And no matter what happens on the screen we of course know that the Falcon is coming out in one piece and that both Han and Chewie make it through the film. The stakes are real. If it weren't a Star Wars prequel the film would have been a nice little space western. Which is more than I would have ever expected given all the troubles the production had.

So, how's your hygiene?

Hush little Volo, I'm sure you're pretty on the inside.

Can't beat free, although the free game looks more like a strategy game than a visual novel. Unreal Gold's for free too for a while. Nice.

So that is essentially what happens when you let a male "1" write something like that. Terrible hygiene inclucded.

Yeah, good/interesting characters and character moments can carry even a game devoid of any plot. Like Mass Effect 2. It's a slightly above average corridor shooter with terrible fake difficulty and no story at all but who cares when you can play the game with Zaeed, Tali and Garrus.

Man, that might be cheap as hell but boy do I enjoy liking my own post... sorta.

Is that a game based on the awesome Asylum movie Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies? edit: Tower of Time. I backed both Deadfire and BattleTech so they don't really count.

Finished Agents of Shield Season 5. Would have been a perfect series ending. Now with the Season 6 renewal... eh... meh.

Finished the Battletch campaign and now playing Yoga Fire in earnest.

It was certainly a very well made episode. Terrific, in fact. And all the writers had to do was leave Dolores, Cyclops and Maeve out of it. *sigh*
