    A rant about games being delisted.

    Hey all, Basically, Sega recently announced that they're delisting a bunch of their games in a few weeks. It was enough to get me to drop everything to record a rant about it. Figured some here might find it interesting, as I dive a bit into emulation and the state of game rereleases and...

    A Look at some of Neverwinter Nights' Demo Modules

    Hey all, I took a look at some of the classic Neverwinter Nights demo modules. Far as I can tell, these were meant to act as effective instructions for the new toolset so that players could get their footing in the world of modding. They aren't really something you would want to specifically...

    Shadow Sorcerer is bad (but also kinda like Baldur's Gate)

    AI Art

    Reminder that Druckmann recently said he was tired from everything Naughty Dog has done over the past 2-3 years. The studio has done nothing but rerelease The Last of Us in those years.

    Interesting and cool videos thread

    Anything with animals in war will never not remind me of Sergeant Stubby. For context - there are people who spend their entire lives/career serving admirably in the United States army... and never attain the rank bestowed upon Mr. Stubby.

    The Music Thread

    I'm pretty certain the entirety of this live album/video was redone in the studio (the vocals and keyboards unquestionably were), but man if I can't get down with some mid tempo progressive stuff.

    An article I wrote about different D&D Editions.

    By helm, is this old! I remember quite enjoying writing this one up. Maybe one day I'll do some sort of follow up looking at the systems of the video games that adapted them. It's arguable that those systems could have a greater impact on experience/gameplay in that context - could be...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    I'm certainly not discouraged. Most of the response, here and on YouTube, has been quite nice - a lot of good discussion and back and forth and what not. I always try to provide a lot of talking points, but I'm well aware my videos aren't all-encompassing. What I also know, by virtue of having...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    Again, while I understand what you're saying, the intention of my video was not to be a critique of Original BG vs BGEE. It was to discuss the history of BGEE and why, at this point, I think it they're the best way to play the games nowadays. I love the originals and have no intention of ever...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    I was not aware! Personally, I hate the sound of my voice. I have to basically pitch it down intentionally in order to stop it from cracking and breaking. I'm a grown man with weak vocal cords or something, idk :ROFLMAO:

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    With all due respect, the video was not a dissection about all the differences between the original BG and the Enhanced Edition. The "soapbox" portion is more based around the idea that, at this point, if you simply want to play Baldur's Gate, that the Enhanced Editions, in my opinion, are the...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    The most frustrating thing, to me, is that I've been actively replying to peoples comments AND am pretty active (all things considered) in that sub outside of the video. I didn't realize I needed to bring an essay to post something I thought people might be interested in :ROFLMAO:. If we wanted...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    Redditors claim to love conversation and then act like a video from a small YouTuber is an affront to their very nature/worldview.

    Movies/TV Series/Books that surprised you

    I like Athans, as well, but I have a really hard time looking past some of the stuff, here. Even with the understanding that he was undoubtedly screwed by the circumstances to some degree, I don't think there's any amount of revising/rewriting that would've saved them. They're borderline...

    Movies/TV Series/Books that surprised you

    These are a surprise! Even moreso that I found them for cheap! (OH MY GOD THEY'RE SO BAD. THEY ARE BORDERLINE HORRIFIC. THEY'RE SOMEHOW WORSE THAN THE INTERNET SAID THEY WERE. THEY MAKE NO SENSE. THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY BE A COMPLETE WASTE OF PAPER. IT USES THE WORD "CUCKOLD" SERIOUSLY AT ONE...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    What's ironic about that was that the Enhanced Editions were originally supposed to be closer to remakes. Beamdog had ideas to upscale the art and clean up the animations and whatnot. Wouldn't have been something completely new, but almost unquestionably would've been a fair bit more than the...

    Does anyone remember how ROUGH BGEE's initial release was?

    Recently started working on a historical-type video recapping exactly that. Between the bugs, the intel hardware problems, Atari pulling it from stores, no mods and all the bickering over the new content, it's amazing that it reached the state it's in today. Just goes to show you how willing...

    Game Guides

    Something about these old boxes is just so nostalgic. There's really nothing like them in the world today.

    Game Guides

    Does anyone remember the olden days of gaming guides? I recently found this gem for cheap (and have ones for the base and second game on the way) and can't help but get nostalgic about them. I know they've been largely displaced by digital means (and don't even think that's necessarily a bad...
