I can't say much about what I think about Legacy games without some spoilers, so here we go:

Spoilers for Risk Legacy and Pandemic Legacy:

I like the idea of Legacy games in theory, but one thing I absolutely require is that you still have a playable game after the campaign is over. This is what my group enjoyed about Risk Legacy. After the campaign is all said and done, we have our very own unique Risk board, but one that can still be played indefinitely into the future if we want. This is why we passed on Pandemic Legacy, because it was spoiled that the game renders itself basically unplayable after the events of December.

This is clearly being pushed to coincide with Arena, so I think this format's success will probably be more determined by that then anything else.


So wait, do we have a good idea on when Arena is launching?

I strongly concur with this advice, and even though it sounds dumb, she definitely has a point here. I know plenty of lefty hippy types who will spend an hour at a restaurant grilling the waiter to make SURE everything is vegan, gluten-free, etc. because their body is a temple and they don't want to contaminate it with dangerous human chemicals, but won't hesitate to buy a bunch of unlabeled pills from some shady dude on the street because, like, we need to experience life, man.


I mean, if people are actually doing this then her advice is good. But... is there actually any significant overlap between health nuts and opiod abusers, or is this just another dog whistle strawman a right wing pundit pulled straight out of her ass to get in cheap shots on liberals?

I think we all know what the answer is here.

My understanding of the term was along the lines of, "subset of Sanders supporters whose defining characteristic was being anti-Clinton rather than pro-progressive policy as evidenced by seeming more interested in tearing down the Democrats than opposing Trump/Republicans after the primary"

but i'll admit i tend to stay away from social media so i have no idea what was going on out there


Pretty much this, yes. That's what the term meant. I'm sure it got misused over time as Tony contends, but it was never intended to "paint all male Bernie supporters as misogynistic."


This is what it meant for like, five minutes. But it quickly got overused to the point that it's now in the same category of "useful" terms as SJW.

If by "Bernie Bros" you mean people who supported Bernie in the primary, let's please cut the fucking shit about them swinging to the Alt Right. That was an absolute tiny minority but for some reason people won't shut up about it. It's pretty much become the liberal version of "but her emails!" at this point. Once again, since apparently this can never be said enough times, more Bernie supporters voted for Hillary in the general than Hillary supporters voted for Obama in 2008.

You can kindly go fuck yourself now.

Yeah

I've been worrying about this for a couple of reasons, one being that I'm finally starting to feel the superhero fatigue and the other being that Thor 3/Black Panther were so different, while this is going to be straight-up comic-book movie, so it might not feel so special.

Then I watched this trailer and I was like "lol, what the fuck was I talking about, this will be phenomenal"


There's a reason they keep mixing up the tone/style of the solo movies (besides the fact that it's just generally a good idea). It allows them to go "full superhero" for The Avengers and still blow your pants off.

Well I mean it's one thing to go from like 10/10 to 6/10

Another entirely to go from 10/10 to 1/10

World views shift a bit, but turning so drastically makes me take all your lists as practically insincere to be honest. Like I like em for a spectacle but I can't really be too upset about the content cause it's all going to flip on its head in a week anyway

Also let's be real you made that 10 to 1 jump in more like 2 years not 14.

Well, we have all been caricatures running around here at one point! I said it earlier, and I know maybe some people think its a matter of saving face (I dont know what I would be saving at this point, haha), but those lists really were a channel to talk to the board about games. It was a heres what I have played since last time. I remember I intentionally made Metroid Prime 2 #1 after playing it for the spectacle, the predictions, and the ability to get the board chattering about it. In fact, I feel like this was shortly after TOS!

As long as this was enjoyable, thats all that matters. I dont want to be defined by my lists at this point, haha. I dont think my tastes have shifted terribly much at all lately. I havent made a list in nearly a decade, but whats here now wouldnt be wildly different from a few years ago. Maybe, who knows!


Whatever your motivations, then or now, I think it's safe to declare that this has been a very successful topic.

Didnt it come out on the PS4 somewhat recently? Did they do anything to it other than make it HD? That would have been a perfect time to fix those dungeons.

I mean Mario is literally nowhere in Yoshi's Story.

and mario isn't in yoshi's island. baby mario is, who is a different character, as evidenced by mario karts where baby mario and mario can be in the same race. qed


Baby Mario is not a different character. He exists in the Kart series for the same reason you can play as both kid and adult Gohan in DBZ games.
