Closed due to length (and the code seem to be getting a little wonky too). New thread here.

What's on the idiot box?
Man that was a pain to watch, I think the failure here was directing - the actors seemed really confused with their roes and the pacing and plot structure was just a complete mess. On par with The Royale indeed.

I've only seen 2 episodes so far, but if she was even marginally more cool about it, I'd be worried about her mental health. What parent wouldn't be a mess after that ordeal? She's remarkably sane as is.

Very good first episode of Stranger Things 2 imo, seems like a natural continuation

A robot received citizenship in Saudia Arabia, a first in human history. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/national-international/Artificial-Intelligent-Robot-Receives-Citizenship-in-Saudi-Arabia-453196913.html

They say it's pretty crap without the Crusader DLC though - so I hope you got that as well.

As the joke goes - you can say what you'd want a guy to say to you - as in, normal human interaction is cool, flirty without being a creep is too - but aggressive sexual advances are not.

The Potential of VR
I'd go full Barclay.

We'll be growing it in labs eventually, at which point large scale animal farming will be over anyway. It's a waste of resources when you can just grow a kobe beef without having to spend feed on the brains, organs and all that other 'support' stuff.

The Potential of VR
In its current form it's too limited and offers little compared to a standard gaming experience. Just like motion sensoring.. I don't think VR will really take off before we have comfortable VR glasses which does not create dizziness for 1/3 of it's source costumers - or before we have living room holographic technology.

I played the game with 3 friends and it gets a little arcadey like that- but even then, I would have a heart attack from stress, if all zombies were virals.. jeez, I get a sweat just thinking about it hah

Panda is probably tasty enough, but I've found most predators (what few I've tried) taste really bitter and the meat was a little less than tender.

True, but CA games are like Bethesda, dissapointing without mods.

Ended up being my favorite TW game, purely because of those Ship of the line battles.. Mmm

I can imagine.. They are luckily a lot more centralized here, so we don't have to subscribe to 8 different services.

Ironically The Orville is a lot close to original Trek, albeit with more infantile humor. Discovery is pretty much a classic case of style over substance, it's extremely visually impressive, but they don't really know how to write engaging drama without explosions and shallow-evil motivation. In short, more Fantasy than Sci-Fi and if you can forgive that, it's a decent enough show. But if you're looking for the old light-hearted sci-fi fun with a dash of moral/ethical dilemma, see Orville instead.

Rick and Morty is kind of a strange show, it's infantile and crude and at the same time some of the funniest social critiscism I've seen. Kinda like The Simpsons when it found its stride 20 years ago.

The key to survival in Stellaris is location, location. and location. If the first civilization you meet is more advanced AND is an as---le you're done. Plus, don't develop every type of weapon. Pick two that are different damage types and max those two out. I have been wasting time researching everything. That means when it matters I'm not really good at anything. True, but the tactis kinda changes with each patch, buff and nerf. You couldn't build tall before, that seems to be an option now at least.

It can be quite unbalanced, but then that's the charm of the game as well - I've had some rotten luck in the last 2 games, after the 1.8.2 update - the AI seems more aggressive now.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - DA REAL DEAL
Don't, this is a figurative cancer of the gaming industry, that really needs to die. It adds nothing, except a way to pull even more money for less content.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - DA REAL DEAL
Too bad, I really enjoyed the first title, but I won't support any game with buyable loot boxes - gambling addiction via mobile phones and these kinda rng boxes, is a growing problem for kids. And targetting them in this fashion, is one of the most immoral business practices imo.

Total War: Warhammer
Have you tried the mod for Rome 2, Divide et Impera? Completly remakes the game and with that it is imo, on par with Shogun 2

I think this is the point where mainstream tvshows swings away from perpetual grim dark and back towards lighthearted. They've peaked with Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Westworld and Stranger Things. I think that style is saturated now.. And part of the reason ST Discovery is struggling with it's thematics
