Oh cool, time for Bethesda to put out a modfucking patch three days before they release?

Guardians of the Galaxy. The combat could have been a bit better, but otherwise it was fantastic. Better than any of the movies except the end of 2.

That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about stars to dispute it.

Anyone else think that dead chump looks a lot like Theodore Chipmunk?

Then do I have some shit to tell you about those filthy Husnocks. You know they fed their babies shrimp scampi?

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all down the coast

Naught but a stifling silence arose;

The stockings were hung by the chimney with prayers,

That only St. Nicholas soon would be there;

The children were huddled, restless in bed;

While visions of darkness danced in their heads;

Mamma stayed quiet, her thoughts on the deep.

We had just settled into a weak fitful sleep,

When out from the sea there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash,

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,

Cast a sick eldritch light on objects below,

When what to my maddening eyes it revealed,

But a creature of darkness, a nightmare made real,

With a look at the horror my mind was now broken,

And the last thing I knew was that Cthulhu had woken.

Hello, IT. Have you tried knocking it off the table?

Oi! You smegheads talkin' about Holly?

I haven't been this excited since the release of unrelated 1989 Belgian techno anthem "Pump Up the Jam".

Some of these could also be wacky arcade/bowling alley carpets. (2, 2) made me think of Pizza Planet from Pixar movies.

 

I've been playing the Guardians of the Galaxy game lately, and after realizing how similar Lae'zel and Gamora are, I know I have to reinstall BG3 for a Guardians playthrough.

STARRING...

  • Tav as Petyr O'Quill, a.k.a. BARD-LORD - Half-elf, dual crossbows, high Cha/low Int. Torn between Lore for Cutting Words, or Swords for more pew pew.
  • Lae'zel as Gamora, the deadliest woman in the ~~galaxy~~ Sword Coast - All I really need here is modding her an emo haircut.
  • Astarion as Rocket - They're both foul-mouthed and quick to anger. Their backstories actually have a lot of thematic similarity, being twisted into someone else's weapon. Probably a Sorc to accommodate Rocket's love of explosions, unless the Artificer mod is any good. Could have Shovel as a stand-in for Groot? I may try to mod him into a gnome so that he too is small and adorable.

AND MAYBE...?

That leaves one party slot, which I see going one of two ways:

  • Karlach/Minsc as Drax the Destroyer - Big, gullible, excitable, destroys stuff.
  • Minthara as Nebula - I feel like she'd have the same vibe in a good party. Dragging her around with the misfits I'm turning into begrudging heroes might make for great banter.

Suggestions on builds/mods/things to do for maximum chaos and therefor fun? Stories of your own weird themed parties? Arguments about my awful flarking decisions?

 

Not to flood the community, but several people seemed to like the last one. So here's another taste of bardcore, this time a collab from two of the greats.

 

I fuckin' love bardcore, and Hildy is the godsdamned QUEEN!

A haunting medieval style cover of NIN's classic, Hildegard's version seems to tell the tale of a regretful immortal crushed under the weight of outliving everyone they connect with.

And a question for the comments, any interest in a possible c/bardcore community? Or is there one my search missed?

 

I read the lyrics for this on reddit a few years back, and just learned there was a recording. Would be great for for a bard doing an adventure at the Yawning Portal.

 

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

It's not warm when she's away

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

And she's always gone too long

Anytime she goes away

One of my favorite genres, always looking for more. Bonus points if it's currently on streaming.

I've watched the absolute hell out of That Mitchell and Webb Look, Kids in the Hall, Whitest Kids U Know, and obviously SNL and MadTV but both of those had a lot of ups and downs.

I saw the one season each that Astronomy Club and The Moth Effect had and they were both pretty good. I've seen some A Bit of Fry and Laurie, but can't find a good place to stream it. TripTank was basically a sketch show with cartoons, and I liked that a lot too.

I haven't tried these, but someone mentioned them the other day as being fantastic. I was looking for another good CRPG after I finish my current Pathfinder WotR run so I wishlisted the bundle, and apparently had great timing.

 

TAS 1x05, immediately thought of those celebrity name rhymes they did in Community.

 

I used to play the hell out of 1 and 2 back in the PS2 days, but I haven't touched the series beyond that, and haven't even played 1/2 much in the last 10 years.

How would you rate 4 in comparison? I noticed it was on sale in the Switch eShop, and I'd love to have one of the series to play on the go.

What I loved about the ones I played:

  • Story had a good balance of comedy and heart
  • Flexible and fun character building, with decent enough defined classes to get you started
  • Tons of post-game/side content (I didn't like every piece of it, but I liked how much there was to try.)
  • CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH
  • Perfect geochains, though I was usually too smoothbrain for it.

What I didn't like:

  • Item world, IIRC worse in 1 than 2?
  • Adell's siblings
  • Demon court thing?
