  1. It may not have made national news but 100% would have made news. It’s really weird story even without Lady Gaga involved. Plus it was caught on tape.
  2. Putting Jeep owners into the “right wing MAGA” camp is pretty bizarre. Jeep and it’s image isn’t anywhere close to that and outside of the Grand Cherokee being kind of a soccer mom vehicle they most closely associate with the extreme sports out door crowd. That group is about as far from MAGA as you get for the most part.
  3. Yeah I assume the audio will be cleaned up. It’s a half second off in my cut scenes. The loot really is very good so far. It looks cool and it has pretty cool modifiers even at some of the lower levels. I can’t wait to eventually see what the legendary gear does. I feel like that’s when you’ll see modifiers completely change the penal flow. Ive been playing the Technomancer so far and really enjoy it. It’s skills so far are a proximity mine that you toss forward, a turret that does a small amount of damage and can freeze enemies. You can throw that forward as well. And a a mini rocket launcher you place next you you that shoots an ever growing arc of missles forward. The melee attack is a freeze punch that actually has a small AOE. It is the PERFECT little skill for a ranged class as it enables you to get back away from the fight. Id say even as a ranged class I’ve done a mix of sniping from cover and firing on the move. The enemies will try and flank you and a few actually dodge to the right and left when running right at you. I’ve been forced off my spot a number of times. Cover feels more as a rest than a necessity. I LOVE the healing mechanic. I’ve been so close to death a number of times only to have the cool down on my Rocket launcher finish enabling me to pop it and almost fill me health all the way back up. There’s a lot of “phew that was close” moments. Can’t wait to be able to dig even further into these skills and abilities.
  4. Nah not really. What seemed to happen was early reviewers rushed through the game and then when they got to Siege mode at the end they were way under leveled. If you played that game like a normal person would, you never had to grind a single thing.
  5. Had to force myself to stop playing and go to bed. The combat is really really fun. Gear seems like it’s on the right track. Protagonist is a fun mix of bad ass and funny, and I think I give a shit about the story? That part remains to be seen.
  6. Whose insulting? I’m serious. Nothing but respect for Mamma Soze. Lots of interesting takes on the SW universe.
  7. If you never played 2 at all I’d say give it a shot. I’m someone that put hundreds of hours into it. So after the initial wave of nostalgia I think my insane familiarity with the game will make it get stale. But the story and levels are fun so if you never played it then go for it!
  8. If the game is good I’m gonna play. There’s a lot more “good” people that are putting a shit load of time and effort into the making this game.
  9. Its 100% not a game to watch other people play. What I love about it is how different you can attack the skill tree. You can make such totally different builds all inside the same class. And the most fun is when you find a build that works that isn’t super obvious. The loot was perfect. You got just the right number of high level/legendary stuff per run that you didn’t feel over powered and you never got annoyed that nothing was dropping. It also kept getting better in a meaningful way. So you just kept wanting to keep going. The loot in that game was legit addicting. That all being said I’m not sure I could go back to D2. The third game evolved it in so many ways, I think I’d get bored going back.
  10. Yep that’s Diablo 2 alright. God the feels from hearing all those sound effects again. I never tracked it but I think D2 is hands down the game I’ve put the most hours into in my life.
  11. Hold on one sec, I gotta sweep up all this straw you left behind. To be fair, the zero movies I’ve named so far are exactly as helpful to the thread as the several completely off topic movies you were kind enough to supply. So lemme give this a shot to see if it’s as tough as you’ve made it seem. Hmmmm The Last Flight of Noah’s Arc La Tortue Rouge The Mysterious Island All three about an adventure with mysterious qualities and a sense of discovery. What do I win?
  12. I’m about halfway into Ready Player 2 and it got better. I’m curious enough about the story to finish it but good god the writing is only bearable in short spurts. The writing of Aech’s dialogue makes me want to burn the book. So I decided to start something to offset the terrible that I’ve been putting off for wayyyyyy to long. Started The Eye of the World last night. Not a fast reader so should be done with this series by the time my kid starts college. Looking forward to the journey though.
  13. By golly I did!! Although the ones where he amended what he was looking for to include horror and non adventure movies must have been deleted. Crazy times!!
