If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.

ah so no-one is going to donate to critical role tonight, and no-one's benefiting from the free advertising?

You think critical role is paying wendy's?

As for "free advertising" like who cares? Like several people ITT probably ate at Wendy's today, and nobody cares. But also I really don't think just because you watch a single joke episode of wendy's D&D you're suddenly going to eat a ton of wendy's. Even if you suddenly feel like a burger, you may just go to McDonalds instead.

Its like, playing violent videogames doesn't make you violent. Watching this doesn't make me a huge fan of wendy's suddenly. Lol.

Do any of you experience Deja Reve? (Deja vu but from dreams)

I just had a case of recognizing an exact thread page from a dream I had had months ago. I feel a bit scared.

I don't like watching commercials, nor do I find Critical Role enjoyable.

The only RPG podcast I've ever enjoyed was the old D&D segments on Harmontown. Only one of the players had ever played an RPG before, they'd all get drunk before it started, and once Harmon's girlfriend started playing half the time the game would get consumed by some pre-existing argument they were having.

Harmonquest is my favorite D&D show thing because they actually animate the show and it adds a LOT. Also the guest celebs are fun.

I've been saying for years that somebody should get Vin Diesel and the other D&D celebrities together and use CG to animate the game and put it on TV.

If Hasbro gave a poo poo about promoting D&D they'd do that and sell it like hotcakes. But they don't care.

Maybe, but now Games Workshop is making a big play for cultural relevance. In 30 years we're going to be getting insufferable nostalgic throwback TV shows and movies about being a teen in the 2020s and playing Warhammer 40,000

I'm sorry to go back to train chat but my brain keeps insisting there was a multiplayer shooter where your team and the other team were each on trains (maybe running through the desert?) and you had to jump back and forth to the other train and kill guys, and I can't remember what it was called or if it actually existed. Does anybody know what I'm talking about or is it time to go to a brain doctor?

There was an Unreal Tournament assault level like that.

Edit: UT had AS_HiSpeed on a train and UT2004 had AS_Convoy on some big fuckoff tanker vehicles in the desert.

Finished Amnesia. I think realizing that the AI is actually pretty dumb took a lot of the monster scares out of it, but it's still a pretty atmospheric horror game.

You'd think there'd be major headlines that these kind of dreams confirm that time isn't linear or fixed.

I was going to post in/start reading the Code Vein thread but they're all way further than I am

I feel like this happens with a lot of games, where I avoid the thread as I'm playing because of spoilers (or even just it not being fun to read posts about stuff I haven't done yet, even if spoilers don't really matter) and once I finish the game it gets memory holed and I no longer have an appetite to read an entire thread about it

So instead I will post here that the first boss in the cathedral area is a loving chump and that my poor brain can't keep up with the crazy three dimensional layouts of that area or the one after it
