This just hurts my opinion of T-Pain.

I made a belt out of old watches once. Waist of time.

I haven’t gotten my shit together and researched specific models yet, but I’ve been looking into this a bit myself, and from what I’ve read, Sceptre appears to be one of the better brands for completely dumb TVs these days.

Because otherwise we wouldn’t have Walter Murphy’s “A Fifth of Beethoven”.

That’s a fair assessment. There are a ridiculous number of classes and subclasses each with their own quirks. And that’s without getting into multiclassing or Wrath’s mythic path system. I’ve definitely spent 20+ minutes leveling up before.

Do you like JRPGs? Yakuza: Like a Dragon is fairly recent and has a sequel (that I haven’t gotten to play yet). The story is NOT your typical RPG fare, it’s a modern drama about an ex-gangster trying to get back on his feet after prison (it gets emotional, I cried). But the combat is a classic turn-based RPG and it’s fun, stylish, and just barely complex enough to stay engaging.

The graphics are much simpler than BG3, but Owlcat has done some fantastic work with their Pathfinder games.

Wrath of the Righteous is much more polished and expanded than Kingmaker, but they’re both great. They both have the option to play in turn-based like BG3, or real time with pause like the old BG games.

The series with the magic item home shopping network is amazing.

A winner is… me?! This is incredible!

Installing FF5 now because I love the early iteration of switchable classes, then I’ll loop back around and play them in order. So I guess I have the next 300-400 hours planned.

Thank you again CatZoomies, you’re my hero.

Children deserve better movies than this soulless green-screened cash grab.

They also deserve better games than Minecraft IMO, but that’s a different conversation.

Shadow Madness on PS1. Unlikable characters, incoherent story, bad graphics, and boring gameplay. It was like someone drew a better JRPG from memory.

Twisted Metal: Black II please. Or even one that’s a little more of a dark comedy like TM2. I just know I hated everything after Black. (Why the fuck were we racing instead of fighting sometimes?!)

I haven’t gotten to try it yet, but I hear Dread Delusion has a lot of Morrowind’s visual style and weirdness, if not quite the same gameplay.

Comrade! There are DOZENS of us!

This is super cool of you!

I would absolutely love the Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle, both for my own nostalgia and to introduce my wife to them. She’s only played X and XIV.

To accompany my entry, have a homemade FF4 meme:

I have a thing for anthology movies. A few small stories with connected themes or settings rather than one long story.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, Sin City, History of the World Part 1, Creepshow, and Heavy Metal are all great examples.

I’ve seen that one in my podcast app, but my backlog is still so long. Might be good for nights that I just want to zonk right out though.

The thing I like most about LeVar Burton Reads is that it’s basically Reading Rainbow with the occasional “fuck” thrown in there.

And yeah, Tim Harford’s smooth voice is a much-needed balance to the anxiety inducing content of Cautionary Tales.

If you liked Norsemen, I’d say give Plebs a try. It’s another historical sitcom, about a group of losers in ancient Rome.

I prefer single voice, storytelling podcasts. I listen to them as bedtime stories a lot.

• Lore (the older episodes are better, IMO)
• Myths & Legends (snarky modern retelling of old folk stories)
• Fictional (when he actually updates it… same guy as above, but these are classic literature)
• LeVar Burton Reads (all over the board. It’s whatever stories LeVar liked. Leans a bit toward speculative fiction)
• Drabblecast, sometimes good if you like “weird fiction”
• Cautionary Tales (nonfiction)
• Just started getting into The Program. Clear Black Mirror influences here.

I could be down for small beer being the main thing we drink.
