elminster also founded the harpers who are my personal pick for most obnoxious organization in forgotten realms

wtf even is the Harper philosophy?

Like what are they even *about*? Been playing DnD games for 25 years and still don't know that. Haven't bothered to read any books on them because lol gently caress that

Three pages of explanations and I still don’t understand poo poo about Harpers.

But they are not themselves wizards?


Starting to think I should kill all Harpers. Sorry Jaheira, you were always difficult. Say hi to Khalid for me.

I am a turbonerd who loves weird board games and Arkham Horror burned me out after like 2 tries.

Supposedly the card based version is more approachable.

As a fellow turbonerd who also hates the Arkham Horror board games I can assure you the Arkham Horror LCG (card game with good distribution model) is very good and very fun.

I've bounced off Doom Eternal three times but want to play it properly now having listened to some of the soundtrack on YouTube. Between this and Prey Mick Gordon is the most exciting composer in games today.

I just played Prey last week. It’s good. Best in the immersive sim genre imo. Not a flawless game though.


Either way if you like your Deus Exes or System Shocks you oughta play Prey.

Yeah it is a bit odd how everyone decided beforehand that BG3 was incredible.
Its a very fun coop game but I wouldn't be very into it as a single player one I don't think

Playing it single player it's... fine.

Better than my experience of playing D:OS2 coop on Xbox, but most of my problems there were the UI with a controller meant every loving thing just took so goddamn long.


Still feels stupidly similar to playing the original Divine Divinity back when that released though, even though that was more of an ARPG. Somehow all Larian games just feel very samey to me.

Illithids are big into himbos and bimbos, because anyone with a better brain gets slurped.

HoMM5 is Ubisoft and it's the best entry in the series.

HoMM4 most underrated in the series. HoMM3 most overrated. Come at me.

I wasted an evening playing Nemesis and then the friend who bought it was pissed off with us for never wanting to play it again because he spent so much money on it.

For the last 3 months my wife and her friends have been putting together playgroups for their autistic children and husbands, so I've been plugged back into boardgames since the last time in... 2007?!?

Apiary is a game about space bees and I hang.

It got me back into watching Twilight Imperium tournament brackets. I fuckin love overly complicated 1.5 hour drafts before the game even starts. A dude is trying to get us to do an Eclipse game, he pitched it as Twilight Imperium lite and I am willing to crush other nerds at this game of intellect and skill.

Eclipse owns. It's what Twilight Imperium wishes it was.

Alternatively you can produce a fuckton of stone (no trust me, you need more stone than that [no really, those are rookie numbers]) and sell that to buy wood.
