Taking a look at Fallout S2 at the moment; rather enjoying it, though I’ve forgotten most of what happened in the first season. I love how terrible the Ghoul is, and the contrast with Lucy’s idealism. I do hope Maximus gets a little more to do later in the season; being sidelined while the...

My favourite Brian Hyland track.

Monarch is the Godzilla one, right? I heard the writing is poor enough to make Anna Sawai look like a bad actress; any truth to that? (Or did Shogun just make her look amazing?)

I like a slow burn show well enough, but I found S2 just had too much pissing about for my taste; was not that engaged in the storyline surrounding the ruined silo. Still pushed through because i love the look of the show so much.

I actually stopped playing, the trauma was so great, and so I missed the actual sex scenes. Probably for the best, given my fragile psyche.

So you want to bring in the evil twin before Wash’s death? Well, it’s unusual but hardly unprecedented. Twice the Tudyk, twice the fun! (Fourdyk?)

I think we’re better off looking to soaps, rather than sci-fi, for inspiration. Slap a goatee on him, say he’s an evil twin, and call it a day.

It’s what’s made me leery of the series so far: I like to keep my RPGs and my fantasy shows well separated: or at least I want the mechanics to be more or less invisible. It’s very common in anime and drives me bonkers there too, as we take a break from the narrative to carefully explain the...

Call me a soulless hater, but Leliana’s singing caused me to almost pass out from full-body cringing, immediately uninstall the game, and swear off Dragon Age forever. Am I allergic to emotional intimacy or is it just the most cringeworthy scene ever committed to silicon? I’m not sure, but...

Poor bass players may as well be invisible.

Yes, I backed the Kickstarter with rather more enthusiasm than I man my age should. But I’m pretty sure it lacks the strategic layer, which is one of the few things I miss from Star Control 1. Though perhaps with a slightly less madness-inducing starmap.

Excuse me? The only topic is edition war. And people find the new edition of capitalism to be most unsatisfactory. The starting gold guidelines are totally unbalanced and the new droid class is busted.

Gosh, you’re all so imaginative (relative to me). My wants are all based on existing properties - I want a Pillars of Eternity 3; a Baldur’s Gate 3 with all of the DoS rubbish removed; an Arcanum sequel with combat that doesn’t make me want to bash my head against a wall; a Star Control sequel...

Tell me the thread; I’ll fix it.

That’s hilarious. Probably means the results should be taken with a grain of salt though.

Oh yeah, I still can’t play Neverwinter Nights - that early 3D is truly hideous. The problem is, it’s going to turn all the potatoes into princesses by sticking some googly eyes and lipstick on them. It hits my uncanny valley senses very hard right now, but as you say, I guess it can only get...

The teens are the ones who’ll have to live in the AI-cooked (in both senses of the term) world which we leave them, so perhaps their concern is justified. Certainly none of the posters on this board are likely to have to deal with the long-term consequences of an immensely heat-generating...

Sorry, that was a facetious answer. The real answer is: to improve someone’s appearance in a digital image by applying filters, usually in a very dramatic or over-the-top manner. Comes from drag culture, apparently.

I am still unable to cure my Baldur’s Gate 3 addiction; coming to the end of a Dark Urge resist run. I feel very mixed about the writing for the character; I don’t think it works particularly well:l. The dialogue options are all “Raaagh I will bathe in you blood!” or “I’d love to l eat your...

Yazzify: to improve the appearance of someone by giving them short, bleached-blonde hair.
