  • Personally I enjoyed both the storyline and characters in BG3, but I also highly recommend Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.

    The gameplay is tighter, owing to a more mechanically sound system (Pathfinder 1e versus D&D 5e), but also not as “free” as BG3. It’s a lot more difficult, but it scales better too.

    With that out of the way, both the story and the characters are absolutely excellent. The game is an adaptation of the official Pathfinder adventure path of the same name published by Paizo. For the uninitiated, Paizo started out as the team within Wizards of the Coast that wrote and designed adventure modules. Wizards fired them, so they set up their own shop to keep writing kickass d&d campaigns.

    Wrath of the Righeous is no exception. The scope is enormous, and you really get that classic journey from lowly adventurer to god-killing hero. The characters are excellent and many, both in the party and supporting cast. I loved BG3, but I must admit that I find the villains and plot more compelling in Wrath.










  • Kardashev - Snow Sleep

    "Kardashev is a progressive death metal band hailing from Tempe, AZ, whose lyrics focus on the advancement of the human race through themes of technology, selflessness, love, and altruism. Given their positive take on death metal, their style has been jokingly referred to as “life metal,” and they also embrace the genre tag “deathgaze” (death metal + shoegaze) which perfectly describes their ambient death metal approach. "




  • Man, this is sad as hell.

    I did not agree with his politics, but he deserved better than this.

    Sure, there are politicians in this country who I wouldn’t mind seeing disappear from politics, but I sure as hell don’t want to see anyone dead

    The last five years of his life sucked ass. Came out as gay in a conservative party, ran for PM and got laughed at, got divorced, and still stuck by his career dispute almost everyone suggesting he retire. In a world with more and more flaccid career politicians and trump-wannabes, I can respect a dude for a least sticking to what he believes in, conservative as they might be.


  • Eh.

    Looking through Danish new sites (Dr.dk, Information, Politiken), there is not a single headline about this. I’m curious as to why, and what the angle will be, whenever we get any domestic news on it.

    In principle, I think this is a good thing, and something we should have done a long time ago. However, our current PM (Mette Frederiksen) has a history of promising the moon and then never actually getting around to delivering on it, so I’m kind of half-way expecting this to mean “we’ll establish a comittee that’ll start an investigation into what we can send and when we can send it” and then it’ll take them a year or more to figure out the logistics of it, at which point it might be too late.

    I should be excited about this, but I am so jaded by our politicans complete lack of interest in anything else than playing the game and staying in power that I struggle to be.
