Is it just me, or is Persona 5 Royal combat way more interesting than Shin Megami Tensei V combat? P5R combat has the player striking weaknesses for a One More (allowing the character to act again), which can be Baton Passed to a different character, which not only restores a small amount of HP...

Got an International Women's Day email from my workplace's Managing Director, and I wanted to break it down since it disgusts me and I wanted to respond to it somehow. I did remove names of both people and the organisation. Will you ever take the opportunity to thank the men of my workplace? Or...

And yes, if I remember it when I cannot recall any of my other classes, then that's saying something about how sickeningly awful it was. Back in 2017, I had to do a "Programming Fundamentals" class, all bout Java - a mandatory class, that was listed as a prerequisite for other subjects. The uni...

Well, that just happened, in the "Pokémon mechanics you'd like to see" thread I just posted in. As I said there, neither "IP" or "History" work for little ol' non-Admin me, yet they're there for some reason...

1. The original show, created by Gerry Anderson, had episodes that ran for about 50 minutes, whereas the new show only has roughly 25-minute episodes, since it's more akin to a regular cartoon. This severe decrease in time means less opportunity for plot complexity and characterisation and...

I just find it slow, awkward, and just nasty to use; previous games had far faster and more refined combat systems. Sure, this is with a Rusty Broadsword (not any lategame weapon), but if combat feels downright awful at the very beginning, where's the incentive to go farther? Sword swings are...

Just wanted to paste this old .txt file somewhere. I know it doesn't matter much anymore, complaining about two lacklustre 2018 games in the beginning of 2021, but...eh. Whatevs. I wrote this before they even came out, too, so that's why the tense is what is is.

The Game Awards is quite controversial, since there can never be consensus on what's a "fantastic" game and what's "trash"; this is inherently subjective. Still, I want to provide my thoughts on several contenders for the 2020 Game Awards. For overall GOTY, there's six contenders: DOOM Eternal...
I love this game, having just today finished it. The ending is one of the few ones where I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried, due to all the death and destruction - and how utterly pointless it all was, since Malos wasn't actually killed. Milton, Hugo, Mikhail's innocence, Mythra's sanity and...

DOOM Eternal: a flawed game that doesn't live up to the hype or its predecessor. Extremely skimpy on ammo, health and armour pickups, resulting in a boring chainsaw/glory kill/flamethrower cycle that gets old fast instead of being able to use the guns to shoot things - which is supposed to be...

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I still like how a freaking mp3 file hacks webos all that security defeated by text yet again
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
