Re: Constellation (Apple TV+) — S: Noomi Rapace, Jonathan Banks — Sci-Fi Alternate Reality Thriller — 2/2

My wife and I caught up on this this week. It’s a weird show. I feel like at this point, the plot is pretty straightforward for those focused on paying attention to it, but if you’re paying that...

Re: Forspoken —> 1/23/23 —> PS5

I picked this up on sale over the holidays and have just gotten around to it over the past couple weeks. I have to say, I feel like this is one of the most unfairly maligned games I've come across in...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I guess it depends how you’re playing. If you’re doing side quests and looting the areas you clear, I’d think so. IIRC, I was leveling pretty slowly until I got the Ikrun, then started moving up...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

Are you equipping new weapons and armor as you get them? ‘Leveling’ in this game is nearly entirely a function of the gear you have equipped.

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I remember the frustration you mention, but don’t recall when it went away and if it was from picking skills or some armor/mods I got. Eventually, it gets much easier to use a stealth approach,...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I didn't end up finishing this. I spent about 47 hours on it, visited the whole map and did quite a bit, but just got kind of bored by the end and didn't care at all about the story. I did enjoy the...

Re: Reacher (Amazon) -- Season 2 Thread -- premieres 12/15/23

I think a lot of those criticisms are dead on and fall 100% on the show's writers. I'm pretty sure none of the following happened in the book:

- Special forces providing support to Reacher &...

Re: Reacher (Amazon) -- Season 2 Thread -- premieres 12/15/23

I've read nearly all of the Jack Reacher books between the airing of the first and second seasons. First, Lee Child is a shit writer. Just terrible. If you took a drink every time he describes...

Re: Night Swim (2024, D: McGuire, EP: Wan/Blum) S: Wyatt Russell, Kerry Condon

I’ll stream this when it comes out just to see the explanation they give for people continuing to use the pool. With a haunted house movie, it’s usually some version of people being not being able to...

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (12/7/23; PS5, Xbox Series S|X, PC)

I’m a bit further in and agree it gets a ton better once you have the flying creature. I’d highly advise pushing through story missions until that unlocks. From there, the world is beautiful and, so...

Re: The Questyen's Favorite Games of 2023

That’s a very well-deserved (and predictable) number one. I can see myself revisiting it every year or two for a fresh playthrough. I would love if it did well enough for them to justify some DLC...

Re: The Questyen's Favorite Games of 2023

As always, enjoying the list Questyen. I like the addition of the DLC recommendations. It’s a good reminder that I still need to check out the add-ons for Horizon Forbidden West and RE: 4.

I’d...

Re: Wonka (2023, D: Paul King) - S: Chalamet

My wife and I took our boys to this. They all loved it and I found it to be fairly charming. It was pretty much exactly what I expected from "the director of the Paddington movies makes a film about...

Re: Arcade 1UP

Not sure whether to post here or in deals, but if anyone was looking an Ollie’s for one of these, they’re having a special sale tonight for members of their free rewards program. From 6 - 10 pm, toys...

Re: What Are You Playing? (November 2023)

I just wrapped up The Talos Principle 2 last night and may go back for some of the optional side stuff, though I caught a fair bit of it on my first playthrough. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who...

Re: No One Will Save You (2023, W/D: Duffield) S: Kaitlyn Dever

Another recommendation to go in blind. I’m still undecided if they stuck the landing at the end, but they absolutely nailed the ride. Very fun and extremely well executed.

Re: Pikmin 4 (7/21/23: Nintendo Switch)

Wrapped this up last night and, in my opinion, it's close enough to perfect to warrant a 10/10. My only very, very minor gripe is the Dandori Battles. I passed every one on the first try, but the...

Re: Pikmin 4 (7/21/23: Nintendo Switch)

I’m only about 3 hours in and agree. Extremely well done and almost certainly will end up being my favorite in the series. My only small gripe is that it’s a tad on the easy side, as I have around...

Re: Pikmin 4 (7/21/23: Nintendo Switch)

Really looking forward to this. Just wrapped up the two remasters. I’d forgotten how brutal 2 can be compared to 1 & 3. I started intent on getting to 100% on it, but a handful of the caverns were...

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch

Well fuck. I wasn't planning on spending $50 on games today, but the surprise release of HD versions of Pikmin and Pikmin 2 made for an automatic purchase.

Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch; 5/12/23)

There is just an incredible amount to do in this game. I'm guessing I'm around 80 hours in at this point and when I look at the 'hero's journey' view of the map, there are still large swaths of land...

Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch; 5/12/23)

I had the same thing happen. If I'm remembering correctly, you have to activate the green disk that establishes the fast travel point and possibly talk to him to get him to start following you.

Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch; 5/12/23)

Very light spoiler/hint regarding the three temples I've done so far.

The ability of the companion who's with you plays a role throughout each of them.
