- Comment on You are all WAY too happy about an extremely powerful and very wealthy CEO who controls a monopoly and uses slave labor. Not to mention he has this two-tiered system based on arbitrary data. 2 weeks ago:
In Red One, it was revealed there are good and bad levels.

First film had better effects.
- Comment on Critical Role's plans to make a videogame have become an 'active pursuit', says CEO Travis Willingham, after almost 10 years of growing a D&D campaign into a full-on franchise 5 weeks ago:
Yeah it sounds like the success of BG3 probably spurred this endeavor. I was giving it two years to be optimistic but yeah most likely longer.
- Comment on Critical Role's plans to make a videogame have become an 'active pursuit', says CEO Travis Willingham, after almost 10 years of growing a D&D campaign into a full-on franchise 5 weeks ago:
Are they projecting a release in like two years? Could be viable.

Also the money. I’d love to do more hardware heavy stuff but the pay just isn’t there.
- Comment on Denzel Washington: Ridley Scott Is Long 'Overdue' for an Oscar 1 month ago:
Too bad Gladiator 2 was a bunch of bizarre logical lapses so that certain plot points can happen. Also such bad CGI these days. Really pales in comparison to the original.

This game is the reason my eyes and vestibular systems are disconnected.

- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
JD should definitely be higher than Strange on the Y axis. He cares way more for his patients.
- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
So Dr. Strange is trained in neurosurgery, which is a 7 year residency compared to 3-4 years for internal medicine. He may have also done a neurosurgery fellowship for 2 years.
- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
But that’s the Y axis. Training is on the X. As a neurosurgeon, he’s had at least 2 more years of training than JD, possibly a lot more.
- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
Dr. Strange should have more formal training for his surgery specialty. Did JD specialize or did he just stay in internal medicine?
- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
And does he actually have no formal training? You’d think at some stretch of his life he actually became accredited somewhere. Possible on multiple planets.
- Comment on How is the calories meter on exercise bikes accurate 2 months ago:
Beyond what other people are saying, it should be pretty reliable for comparing between exercise sessions so you can see your improvement over time.
- Comment on Are there Cozy shooter games? 2 months ago:
I’ve been feeling this with Cyberpunk a bit. But you may think it’s too quest driven to be considered.
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the new meta 2 months ago:
But those FPV drones have to be reusable. A kamikaze drone only needs to last long enough to get to the target. Motors, batteries, etc don’t need to have long lifetimes. Think about how cheap the battery can be if it doesn’t need to be rechargeable. If the motor needs at most 5 hours of runtime?
- Comment on Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Dev Says Big Budget Games Are Failing in Part Because Teams Are Over-Scoping Their Projects 3 months ago:
Yeah so today there’s more of a spectrum. Back in the 80s and 90s there were far fewer choices.
I get what you mean though, just wanted to point out it’s more complicated to judge older games by new standards. Eg. if Zelda were a new franchise it might just be a fully open world from the get go.
- Comment on Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Dev Says Big Budget Games Are Failing in Part Because Teams Are Over-Scoping Their Projects 3 months ago:
Wasn’t Zelda always open world? LttP was about as open world as they come back in the day?
- Comment on How do our brains process reality? I heard our eyes were just low-res cameras and our brains were doing all the heavy lifting in 'rendering' reality. 3 months ago:
You can test this: ismy.blue
Obviously not perfect since it depends on screens and lighting conditions.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 3 months ago:
I know some people upgrading Pixels every year because with trade in and sales they only need to pay like $200. I don’t think Sony will take an existing PS5 though…

Going to the gym won’t make you less skinny. Eating more at a surplus will. Also 1g protein/lb of body weight per day.
- Comment on Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced' 4 months ago:
That’s only true if you’re selling steam keys. Eg you are using Valve’s infrastructure. And they don’t even require the 30% cut in this case. If you sold the game using another infrastructure then you can price it how you want.

- Comment on Elden Ring is "the limit" for From Software project scale, says Miyazaki - multiple, "smaller" games may be the "next stage" 5 months ago:
As long as they allow different types of play and have quality of life changes. Also improve the interface and performance on PC.
- Comment on Elden Ring – Patch Notes Version 1.13 5 months ago:
I’ve taken to making them jumping based. It’s not great damage, about 700-800 damage per hit but I’ve been enjoying the challenge.
- Comment on Elden Ring – Patch Notes Version 1.13 5 months ago:
The damage is bad but honestly I kind of like the moveset. It attacks fast and has ok range compared to any other free ranged option.
What’s wrong with bows? I kind of got bored with my bow run as it got too easy.

Ugh no improvements to the Smithscript Daggers which I’m using primarily.
