The 'smart, sexy, emotionally intelligent expert' to 'maniacal space pirate' heel turn was glorious!
Baldur's Gate (in act 3 now), Lies of P, and just dipped my toe into Warhammer 40k Darktide. It's quite nice having very different games to bounce between.
I've got Cocoon waiting a well. I heard it's quite short so maybe I'll boot it up on an evening where Lies of P is kicking my arse too much lol
Very similar here. I'm also a druid and was partying with Karlach (barb/fighter), Astarion (rogue/ranger), and Gale (evocation). But i switched out Gale for Shadowheart (light cleric) at the same point as you and haven't looked back. Having Wyll would've been better as I had noone with decent Charisma.
I really should respec out of Moon druid to land or something because its been incredibly disappointing and without Shadowheart I was just playing support and CC, but I just want to wild shape dammit!
She starts off pretty acerbic with a clear bias toward Data, but they were definitely going for a character arc with her and she started having some character growth as the season went on. She later encourages and supports Data when he's having a mini crisis about losing at stratagema, and she takes an innoculant so she can drink the poisonous tea Worf offers her. Then they brought back Bev and we never got to see it really pay off. Then for ages Crusher is barely anything more than set dressing and a 'will they won't they' relationship for Picard. I always thought Pulaski was a more interesting character than Crusher and the show would have been better for keeping her.
This has blown my mind. Dark Place referenced in Trek!? I know it's gained some cult following but it still feels like an largely unknown and underappreciated time-capsule of comedy. I genuinely didn't realise anyone 'across the pond' had come across it.
Shovel. She's chaotic evil through and through, and I love her. She just wants to murderize and is bored with anything else (except arson). Hearing her maniacally shout "it's fisting time!" and "I'm gonna eat your babies!" Is still making me chuckle into act 3.
True. Unfortunately, holding people in the transport buffer is one of those things you have to entirely forget exists if you want to tell certain stories. The transporter in general could trivialise a lot of story beats.
I enjoyed the demo but I do hope they tweaked a few things. I hear they made the dodge more viable which should make it a much smoother experience
Code of Honor would like a word
Looks like you guys could do with Korea returning the favour then
It's very pre-rennaisance, but with sharper lines, more vivid colours, and shading. It's very cool
That first season of TNG is... rough. Although, that's kind of an issue with most trek and it can easily put people off. Only TOS, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds were birthed with beard full grown
Some apple juices contain an ingredient called isinglass which is made from dried fish bladders. And some apples may be waxed with beeswax (from bees) or shellac (from bugs) before being juiced.
Polyporus squamosus. Looks like it from the top. I'd wanna see the underside to see the pores not gills, just to be sure.
Yeah, we've already seen she is willing to take action against Dawn and Dusk, as she's more loyal to Day. She's also clearly pissed at Day for using her religion for his benefit and forcing her to kill that religious leader. I think her ultimate allegiance is to the genetic dynasty itself, so Day moving to end it is what forces her to act against him.
I was hooked by episode 4 when Bunk and McNulty are at the crime scene
Going in to season 2 can feel a bit jarring if you were expecting it to continue to be about the drug trade, but the show is about Baltimore and each season shows different aspects of the city. The police/drug trade, the docks, government bureaucracy, school system, and the media. For me it's what makes the wire stand out.
I think they mean the American office. Which gets significantly better after the first season, when they stop trying to just copy the original and do their own thing.
It's like reading dystopian sci-fi
