Ohhh I forgot that the Castlevania stuff was hitting Dead Cells so soon; I'll get into that asap... most likely within this week at least.... there's so much going on right now, with Hogwart's Legacy being out, this new Diablo 3 season being the best one they ever made (*not sure how some people are speeding thru getting the whole altar unlocked; some of the ingredients to unlock things are of course purely luck-based *low* drop-rate items like the Ramaladni item and the Royal Ring), and now I got Wolcen console next week... I'll have to take some time off soon *just* to get caught up and spend some quality time on all this greatness.

Ok yeah the Tetris example is off but a character action game with keyboard/mouse?  That's weird that anyone would want to play those types of games with that.  Whatever floats their boat, I guess; I have to keep reminding myself that some people just have extremely odd (or bad, imo) taste in various things.
 
Also---so much for "pc master race!" I guess... time and time again they seem to get the shit end of the experience when a game happens to be released there *and* on consoles at about the same time.  So far it's another time when I don't see people from the console side of things complaining about that game... they're presumably busy having fun with it at the moment as the pc fans are shafted and pissed off yet again.

I agree. I'd never play a game like WoLong with a keyboard and mouse, but it should still, at the very least, work with a keyboard and mouse. I don't want to, but I should be able to if it's my only option for whatever reason. 
 
It's never been true, both hardware standards offer things the other doesn't and it just depends on what's important to you. I game on PC and mods are nice but they rarely outweigh the experience that is setting up a PC game to run right. Installation times are long (and this isn't a benefit consoles really have anymore) you always always have to fuck with the settings to get it running well, if it's 10 or more years old you have to go Google hunting for patches and work arounds to deal with compatability issues. The console versions of Max Payne may not be as good as the PC version but they work when I put them in the console. Have fun getting Max Payne to work on a modern PC set up.

The game should work with the default control set up for the hardware, wether you think that input method is stupid or not. Tetris works perfectly with a Keyboard and mouse. Steering wheels are not a baseline input method for any hardware but actual vehicles. Your comparison is silly imo. 

It will never stop being weird to me that some pc gamers use mouse/keyboard to play things like a 3rd person character action game (*that game Wo Long is getting some heat about this lately, in addition to performance issues on PC)... that's straight up Twilight Zone nonsense to me, like if someone said "this is bs... my steering wheel controls won't work right with Tetris and Super Mario Maker!" ...or "man that sucks... I'm trying to play MvC2 with my NES Power Pad and it's just not working properly with the game!"

I haven't read all the tie-ins yet, but I like the main story so far. Nice dysfunctional time-line created by Sinister himself but unable to control or escape it. At first I didn't get why Sinister went on that crazy killing rampage of his fellow council members, but it was because somehow Hope cleans the clones from Sinister's genetic tampering.
I wanted to see the four Sinisters meet and see more backstory. I guess that's not happening now, unless everything will be reset when they activate a Moira. Orbis Stellaris' deal is a computer mind ala Sage? Doctor Stasis is science. Mother Righteous is magic. Since Orbis is the oldest I would suppose he is the original Sinister but who knows.
One of Beast's logs says that everytime they bring back a mutant from the dead, Sinister's usefulness diminishes. So I take it he will eventually be dealt with.
 
 
How do you like it so far?

I can tell you with 100% certainty that I do not like any JPRG games and have absolutely no interest in any.
 
Now that doesn't mean JRPG's are bad games or anything.
 
They are just not my cup of tea.
 
FF7 is the reason I dislike them.  I enjoyed them prior to that.

Me. Only tried it once and I got to Death but what I've played so far is excellent

MEME MONDAY: Sikh Edition!
 

IMO paternity fraud should be criminally prosecuted.

There was a thing on History channel the other day about other areas that are like the Bermuda Triangle--- Nevada Triangle, Michigan Triangle, etc. etc.  I didn't realize there were other places like that where people and vehicles can just vanish for whatever reason....some of them never found, actually.  
 
They mentioned one wealthy guy that was a pilot that disappeared in the Nevada "Triangle", and the search was extensive...but they found wreckage of his plane about a year later....in a spot that was already searched previously.  I wondered/suspected if it is indeed a time/space warping effect going on with that---like what if someone flying in such an area were to disappear in a zone like that, right now; the afternoon of 3/05/2023.... for this person they are suddenly flying around on the afternoon of March 5, 2029 though, because they hit the "warp"....they crash on that afternoon in 2029.  Here in 2023, if we look at the same spot of land where this person crashed, nothing would be there...because they are gone from this moment in time.  They won't show up there crashing until 6 years from now....from our perspective.... but from the perspective of the person, they are indeed crashing "now" but for them it is 2029.
 
...then as always with time traveling situations, this opens up the question of alternate timelines.  Did the person in this example disappear from the timeline entirely then?  Say that right now in 2023, we are Timeline A....this person hit the "warpzone" so to speak and now they are in Timeline B....since that is a whole different thing, perhaps that is why they are truly gone from our world, and will never be found, even 6 years later since they are not part of this timeline anymore.  Maybe it's possible to even go backwards in the warp, and instead of 2029, it is "currently" 1981, Timeline B, when this person that took off in a plane from 2023 just crashed.  Of course this isn't even getting into the juicy "what if..?" with it possibly being a dimensional warp, and perhaps the missing person just slipped over to a variant like "Earth 2".

Deebo (as Zeus) is in the new WWE 2K game as DLC, this is NOT a drill. I'm definitely making a Deebo costume and takin yall niggas chains

ratatouille is the grossest animated movie ever made. yuck. that was as bad a concept for a movie storyline that hollywood ever came up with.
 

No. I watched most of them during the pandemic. There isn't a single comedian active today that is a jawdropping powerhouse like George Carlin for example. Even Chapelle and Chris Rock's latest is just boring.

I like Bill Burr (and his wife <3) . Bo Burnham is different so I like what he is doing. Trevor Noah's gigs were fun. I'm a fan of Ricky Gervais but his most recent standups are just good not great.

The newer ones that I am hopeful for are Mark Normand, Taylor Tomlinson, and Matteo Lane.

I finally got to Wishmaster 4 now...
 
This is quite a mixed bag here... they tried something different with the formula in this one, and in some ways I appreciate some of what they were doing... but there's some dumb/questionable  choices though...and some things that are downright silly---like the djinn using a tree branch at one point to fight with another guy that has a sword(?!) (**the "guy with the sword" is a manifestation of Ahura Mazda, btw... another odd thing here... ok you involve Ahura Mazda, but why is he gimped with normal human levels of running speed, strength and agility? I don't think he should be restricted *that* much by having a human form here in the world.)
 
The main girl in this one is pretty damn hot; about even with AJ Cook in part 3, actually.  This one also has a bit more eye-candy than the previous ones; right from the start you see a sex scene with that main girl and her boyfriend.  There's a few other scenes where she's showing something nice too.  Other girls also show skin.  Overall, I enjoyed this one.  The djinn is a bit more clever in parts 3 and 4... in fact he goes most of the 4th movie completely undetected... some wishes even get granted without negative results, surprisingly.  

My hands are ready to hurt all over again playing this. Very unexpected but welcome suprise
