I think it's going to be between Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon Zero Dawn for me. Can we count expansions? Because Phantom Liberty puts Cyberpunk over the top if so!

These are gorgeous! Love Rook here especially.

It was mostly a joke about the tv show having a heroic arc lol.

But I agree that I don't really care if a show or film is objectively "good" or not, only that I personally enjoy it and find it interesting, and then separate from that I can reflect on how well it executed different elements or not.

Idk, I like a good underdog gets better over time arc, so if a show starts rocky but has potential and builds on that, then by seasons 3 and 4 they're firing on all cylinders and you're like "this is the good shit right here".

Still sad we didn't get the Mia Smoak spin off.

I'm not as up to speed as I used to be, but my thinking is:
1. India is the big regional power and has lots of carrots.
2. Both the Taliban and BJP are sectarian supremacists domestically, but don't really care if another state is doing sectarian supremacy.
3. Pak too unstable even for Taliban?

I shouldn't be surprised but I can't believe they actually published a chart like this.

Has such a power vacuum anarchic dynamic in the wake of the disintegrating international order, but on the largest scale because the predominant global power has gone insane.

IR applies less because the US State isn't even pursuing basic self-interest - it's become a host to a personalist parasite.

High powered DoD lasers to shoot down party balloons and shut down air traffic.

That sounds like a lot of fun! So much scope for rpg adventures within the Warhammer Fantasy setting. And Old World would make it an interesting period too!

Watch out for those Bretonnian knights, they're kinda nuts!

Haven't had time yet but hopefully soon! Ep 7 was so much fun.

And Jay'den is such a great character too. They're missing out on so much because they can't get over their narrow prejudices.

Morbius in the Jeb! victory pose making all the money in the world.

I wish Sony a very happy 3rd times the charm to sell us all on the great cinematic potential of Morbius. Just 10% more Morbin and this time it'll work.

"Sweet & Sour", a screwball romcom of two oil execs from rival companies, both trying to win the exclusive extraction contracts for newly "liberated" Veneziran, who can't help falling in love. It's a crude and crazy oil meets water romance that's sure to ignite! Spilling into theaters this summer.

Today is my birthdayπŸŽ‚

So, if you feel like giving me a small gift, sharing my VP would mean a lotπŸ₯° Here are 4 that, I think, represent my work well.

I started VP a year ago with Baldur's Gate 3. And only recently moved to other games. I don't know what else to say🫣

My Indian family has been using rice cookers for generations, just gotta increase the water ratio for basmati.

Very much hope so, will have to wait and see what D'Amaro does. Hopefully continued fan pressure will help motivate them too.

I really hope they get the chance to push for it again, but sadly the decision is out of Filoni's hands given that it was Disney leadership that shut it down, and Filoni and Kennedy were both behind the film.

It's so good! Just watched episode 6 and I'm obsessed at this point. Love a dark turn like that after all the fun of the earlier episodes. Strongly agree, more episodes would be very welcome!
