Dune got delayed until 2021. This makes me rather sad. I'm incredibly hyped for that movie.

Agreed.ISBPathfinder wrote: ↑3 years ago@cryogen are there...... maybe a touch many sticky threads right now? I get that many of them have relevance, it just feels like all of the first page is stickied on there.

Aw, what's the link? I have no facebook, and therefore cannot see. But I could use some silver linings!
P.S. I also want to briefly plug the october CCL contest over in custom cards. The theme is legendary villains, and if that great of a theme doesn't get some creative juices flowing, I can't tell you what will. Hope to see you there!

Sorry, Bob got to this one first. I think at last count it ended up at over 120k. And THAT is how you spend money that could otherwise have bought an SL.TheAmericanSpirit wrote: ↑3 years ago@bobthefunny
Many thanks, comrade! I love me a good silver lining, and that's a great one.
Ah, the duality of man. One minute we're at each other's throats and the next we're pooling money for underserved communities. Sometimes hope comes as freely as cynicism, c'est la vie.
I suppose if the Commander community is into it they can go to the limited forum to discuss. I will try it!TheAmericanSpirit wrote: ↑3 years ago@Dunharrow
I'd wait at least until set release to see if the limited forum latches onto the topic. Seems a bit "Rich get richer" for the biggest format forum on the site to potentially steal that thunder.
A lot of it is related to projects I've been putting off (I'm spackling tonight). I also have a book I want to read and some shows I want to watch. And I would like to at least make a dent in this stuff before mid November as Kaledash Remastered comes out then and the new Animaniacs and Hyrule Warriors both come out November 20th.
Nice, I've played the game for the first time this year and I really liked it, but as with all my games I haven't beaten the endboss yet, i've activated all the towers and completed all the shrines, freed all the beasts and then just kinda stopped playing...Guardman wrote: ↑3 years agoUpdate on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild playthrough. Finished it today, with pretty good completion percentage (for me anyways).
My only complaint after finishing the game, and this is a minor one, is that Calamity Ganon was kind of easy to defeat. Most of this probably comes down to being overly prepared, but still I was hoping for a knock-out, drag down challenge. But alas, Calamity Ganon wasn't as tough as either White-Mane Lynels or Thunderblight Ganon.
- Freed all four Divine Beasts.
- Remembered all 13 Memories.
- Activated every tower.
- Completed 85 of 120 shrines.
- Got like around 10% of the Korok Seeds (out of 900 total).
- Got a zero damage kill against a White-Mane Lynel.
Still a great game overall and one of the most defining, awe-inspiring, and rewarding game experiences I've ever had. I could probably play it for another fifty hours to get everything (as I know there are more than a few places left for me to explore), but its time for me to move on. I am really glad I finally finished it this time around.
Definitely stoked for this one, too, although I've played Divinity and its predecessor on PS myself. OS 2 I played through like....5 times so far, and haven't tired of it yet. It's just such a well-designed game. Baldur's Gate 3 looks amazing so far.not-a-cube wrote: ↑3 years agoAlso played Divinity original sin 2 on it, which makes me excited for baldur's gate 3.
I agree on Pokemon Sword & Shield. There were things I liked (the safari zones and UI improvements, plus the new pokemon), but the story was super weak and Gigantomax is basically just Mega Evolutions and Z-Moves with different names. While I did enjoy Sun & Moon and X & Y, it was mostly due to avoiding Mega Evolutions as much as I could, while there also were enough cool and fresh things to keep me interested (especially regional variants and the Faerie type). The last of the great Pokemon games was probably Black & White.not-a-cube wrote: ↑3 years agoNice, I've played the game for the first time this year and I really liked it, but as with all my games I haven't beaten the endboss yet, i've activated all the towers and completed all the shrines, freed all the beasts and then just kinda stopped playing...Guardman wrote: ↑3 years agoUpdate on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild playthrough.

Do you have any other switch games to recommend? I've played this, fire emblem three houses (finished 2 of the 4 routes so far, but i'm kinda done with it for a while), and pokemon sword (which was a huge dissapointment, the story is so flimsy compare to the first generations of pokemon). Also played Divinity original sin 2 on it, which makes me excited for baldur's gate 3.

Caterpillars are my favorite animal. As in, I like the larva stage of butterflies more than I like butterflies. When I was in 5th or 6th grade (like 2 decades ago yikes) I was trying to sign up for some email or online video game. I don't recall which one and but "caterpillar" was taken, so a friend just recommended changing the "C" to an "M". Thus, materpillar. I was 10, so very deep stuff. Everyone always pronounces it wrong though, everyone thinks its MASTER-pillar.TheAmericanSpirit wrote: ↑3 years agoHowdy all,
