Those legendary pigs are the hardest thing in the game.  I fucking shit you not!

The first one, the one that summons the smaller boars was hard. It took me about 3 tries to beat it, but the farting one, OMG. It's poison fart clouds never seem to disappear and I'm always poisoned. It's so frustrating.

I'm level 39 and can't beat that damn farting pig. 

I have an original Xbox One and am wondering if the Xbox One X has faster load times. I only have an HDTV so I've been holding off on the X until I got a 4K TV, but if it improves load times, I might have to reconsider. When playing games like Assassin's Creed: Odyssey or Shadow of the Tomb Raider, the load times during fast travel is really long. Would that be faster?

It blows my mind how Trump is willing to besties with North Korea, but feels that Iran is the Devil incarnate. 

You're surprised he would take different stances with one country that has nuclear weapons vs another country that is trying to get them?

How is Rising Sun?  It's on my wish list but I haven't pulled the trigger.

I love it. I'm a huge fan of games designed by Eric Lang and Rising Sun is my favorite. Yes, it edges out Blood Rage, in my opinion.

I received Twilight Imperium: 4th Edition and Architects of the West Kingdom. I also received Broken Token box inserts for Rising Sun and the Scythe Legendary Box.

So my Steam account was hacked and I can't sign in. In order to get support for anything on their website, you need to sign in. I try to follow the steps to reset my account and they email me a security code to enter. After I enter it, it tells me that the same type of request already exists and a duplicate request cannot be created. It's been like that for a couple of days now. I tried calling Valve and the only option they have is to leave a message with a generic voicemail box. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd love to hear it.

What would you recommend, a high end, 1080P TV or a low end, 4K set? I have a high end Samsung 1080P TV from 2015 and am thinking about upgrading to 4K. I can't afford a high end system right now, but was looking at some of the Visio systems in the < $500 range. Obviously, the 4K is higher resolution than what I have now, but would everything else be just as good?

I believe they'll have to incorporate the characters into some other type of show. Netflix still owns the existing episodes and will keep showing them even after the Disney service starts. Whether they'd use the new Disney service or put them on Hulu, I doubt they'd continue the shows knowing that people would have to sign up with a competing service to view the original episodes.

I'm a Canon DSLR shooter and have been a fan of their cameras. If you want to shoot 4K, their stuff might not be the best as it has a high crop factor. Even their new mirrorless EOS R has about a 1.7 crop factor, meaning you would need to use some decent wide angle lenses if you want the same view in full frame. You might still want to look at it though as it has a much broader selection of native lenses from both Canon as well as 3rd party lens manufacturers like Sigma and Tamron. Adapters exist for the Sony, but they're simply not as good. No way around that. The Canon EOS R also has a fully articulating touch screen. If you're going to be shooting vlogs at all, it's the only one that will allow you to see the screen while you film. Also, the size of the Canon is better, IMO. It has a better grip and is much more comfortable to hold. The Sony is too small and cramped, IMO.

Get any versions of the Red Dragon Inn games. Each one will support up to 4 players, so for 8, you'd need two versions.

Got it to the table!

 

I lost, but damn I love this game.

I love that game too. I just can't wait until some of the expansions are available again.

I'm loving this game. It looks and plays great.

Here's a good article explaining what happened to the Mariners.

I used to be able to, but not so much anymore. Anymore, if I have more than one game to track, I won't be able to decide which game I want to play so I end up not playing anything.

I don't even play Armada, but I want this

I hope this turns out to be good, but after their version of Dark Souls and how poorly they managed the Kickstarter for that, I'm definitely hesitant to back this.

Eldritch Horror is one I really like, but no one in my group likes cooperative games.

Xbox One in my living room, Roku in my bedroom.

MI:II tho

That's a tough one. It definitely has its low points. It's been years since I've seen 1 and 2, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say 2 was better than 1.

I love Scythe and will definitely be getting this expansion. I think I own every expansion and optional add on there is for Scythe.

Other than the Street Fighter Anniversary collection, I haven't picked up anything from this year. I'm still mainly working on Assassin's Creed Origins (that game is huge). I plan on picking up Far Cry 5 and God of War and will definitely get Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Anakin must of been a Gary Stu by doing everything perfectly like pilot a pod racer with enhanced Jedi reflexes, fly a spacecraft perfectly his first time or pass the test by the Jedi council without any training. It couldn't possibly be that Jedi have different levels of connection with the force and the stronger the connection the easier it naturally comes to them? 

To be fair though, no one really loved the way Anakin was portrayed either. It's bad writing all the way around for both characters. However, Anakin does have the known benefit of nearly being created by the Force where no such advantage is known for Rey.

I would still like to see a "A Star Wars Story" film center around Palpatine. Base it on the Darth Plagueis book and show Palpatine's training and his work behind the scenes which leads to the rise of the Empire.
