D’oh! Somehow I didn’t log into lemmy in over a month and totally missed this. Sorry to waste your time and I hope the person who did win is very happy.

“In Tartarus” - The Night Eternal

Elden Ring. I’ve never really played a souls game, and it looks really great.

Not a lot of joy this year, got laid off last year and now find myself in a job where I’m making less and commuting more, but there were a couple of bright spots. I’ve been running a D&D game set in Mythic Greece, and it’s been the best TTRPG I’ve run or played in years - my players have been absolutely loving it. Plus, I recently spoke to a retirement advisor and found that I’m in very good shape to retire in 10 years, and that makes me very happy.

Thanks for doing this. Happy Holidays!

In Enderal (an absolutely amazing, totally free game that runs on the Skyrim engine - if you own Skyrim you owe it to yourself to play Enderal), at the end of Esme’s questline, sitting on top of the lighthouse and discussing the events of her story.

Gods yes. What a brilliant piece of writing that DLC was - simultaneously hilarious and deeply poignant.

Can’t log in or view the site with liftoff, sadly.

Saw it last night, mostly agree with this take on it, though in a bit less glowing terms. I didn’t think the emotional payoff alluded to in this review really worked, because I didn’t think they’d laid enough groundwork for it. Too much of this movie was more storyboard than story, with not enough time spent on actually delving into these characters’ feelings and relationships. That said, it was definitely a fun popcorn flick, with some great action, a good sense of humor, fun characters, and, as the article points out, minimal required external knowledge. And everything said about the publicity was spot on.

Yes, from the poster for the movie “Stripes”.

Glib (though truthful) answers aside, I thought this was a good read. Thank you for posting it.

After finishing a playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3, I’m now on Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. Fun, but nowhere near as good as the original Tiny Tina DLC for BL2. Still, I’m 26 hours in and I’ll definitely finish it. After that… maybe I’ll go back and do a different run of BG3. I’m looking forward to getting back to CP2077 and picking up Phantom Liberty, but I’m going to wait for that to be on some sort of sale.
