The article is even more wack than the price for the domain. They want to launch a $99 necklace that listens to everything you say while it “forms its own thoughts” about it. Then instead of talking to you, it just texts you when IT “wants” (read: on a timer or based on a system prompt)

The monetization is a one-time $99, no subscription. That’s … suspicious from a privacy perspective.

Ace Combat (PS2): Primarily Ace Combat 4, I’d say as it’s shorter but still great. If you like the gameplay then you’ll need to play 5 and Zero.

Ended up with blue-green frogs, primarily. My prerelease box didn’t really get many of any one creature type, but frogs was closest and the other cards I had in blue green made it reasonable. I didn’t really bounce much using the frogs but they reduced the cost of my two polliwallops enough to give me the edge in most of my matches. Went 2-1-0.

Takeaways:

• Seems like a lot of decks make it to 6+ mana reliably in this set
• Lots of synergy in creature type so if you don’t get many of the same type, you need to get creative with deck builds
• Pawpatch Recruit is really good value for 3 mana and makes it really annoying for your opponent to play around
• Treeguard Duo is awesome
• Spellgyre is expensive for a counter but holding a counterspell and then surveil 2 draw 2 is very nice.

One of the main reasons why I use Discord nowadays aside from the fact that my gaming community is there is for its extremely low latency video streaming.

I tried to use other meet softwares but the latency was 10+ seconds. Not useful when I need immediate feedback. Discord offers the quickest and most reliable way for me to get someone else looking at my stream in real-time.

I’ll be looking for alternatives because they’re, of course, not doing anything impossible for others to replicate, they just made it the default.

“Simple” doing a looooot of heavy lifting there.

100%, but a 60 health, 30 gold value underling failing a save for the cost of a bonus action can save me a lot of headache!

Push + Chasm.

Enemies know about it, too. 🤕

Make a save, do the fight and see what happens!

Yes, but this one flew.

Just like tabletop, the lawful good Paladin or Cleric in the party is just seething while the devilish rogue pickpockets anything in sight, alive or dead. It evokes the same feeling, and that’s what makes it great.

I just use Firefox until it definitely doesn’t work, then I use a chromium browser because of course I can’t not have access to a crucial website for my life.

Post-patch content in A Realm Reborn and Heavensward are both pretty rough. Post-patch content gets a bit better later on. Look up the alliance raid series’ and the raids and do those as well to break up the monotony.

Not a huge deal. Microsoft has every incentive to keep Call of Duty on the market leading console. Considering we’re about halfway through this cycle based on history, that means Microsoft would have left CoD on PlayStation 5 for another 3-4 years. This deal is very obviously only happening due to the anti-trust case, and because of the aforementioned 3-4 years it basically just says “we agree to put CoD on PS6 regardless of how well it does.”

Of course, when the companies merge, no regulatory body is going to actually keep Microsoft to their word with penalties high enough to care about.

This merger is bad for the industry without a doubt in my mind.

Cutscenes are definitely very prominent so far. I’d say like 70/30 or 60/40 gameplay cutscene. I think there’s more gameplay than cutscene but it’s still a lot of cutscene so far.

I’ve been playing Pokémon Sun now on my modded 3DS for a month and closing in on filling the dex. It definitely feels good to just grab a small handheld (even tho mine is XL) and play a light game.
