Baldur's Gate 3: Quicksave is my favourite spell
Slurktan replied to Luzifer's right hand's topic in Entertainment
That's not the lore though and so it isnt a cheat link. There is a very specific(and terrible) canon story of BG2 and TOB. Most of the stuff in the games is irrelevant to the actual lore (which again, is terrible). Larian was required to follow the canon by WotC. One such example is Bhaal. He is dead as doornails in BG 1, 2, and TOB because it is set shortly after the time of troubles. He is much more alive (although still one of the "dead three") in the lore because of stupid lore choices they made regarding Cyric and his actions. Regardless to your second point Tav isnt involved in the plot. They are a passanger. -

Well just knock out Allfira after helping her with her song, she survives quite easily. But fair enough to the rest although you may believe Durge runs out of steam. at least it has steam in the first place which is completely and utterly void in Tav. -

Finally played this after the last patch dropped. Always had something come up and put it out of mind. Such a great game, I've done 4 playthroughs and working on the fifth.. The one comment on characters ill say is I really don't understand why anyone plays Tav. They are just a nothing burger in terms of the story. They literally don't exist unless the player is doing their non agency playthrough. The Dark Urge is actually important story-wise and even appears(briefly) if you are playing Tav/Origin chars. Plus I hate Gale and Dark Urge gets to murder him without even meeting him so that's an amazing plus. Not really accurate. Sure Wyll leaves if you kill the tieflings/druids but you don't have to kill the druids/tieflings to go evil. Jaheira won't join you if you tell her you killed Isobel sure but you can lie to her and say Marcus did it and its all good. I haven't tried it but you can probably get big boy Halsin going a darker route too. -
If it doesn't have the subtitle of "The Search for More Money" I will legit be disappointed

Watch, Watched, Watching: We’re Not (Thread)Worthy!

The bullet segment was the worst of them I agree but I still liked it because I liked the way the Predator was like..... whaling. -

Killer of Killers was actually pretty awesome. -
Probably not but still a better chance than Luke going for her. They definitely had a hell of a party that night after he blew up the Death Star. If it were remotely realistic Leia likely fucked Luke that night and given how into her is in Empire, no fucking chance he'd stray.

Think about it. Wouldn't she have been at least a bit grateful because he literally saved the entire rebellion(and her) from utter eminent destruction as it was seconds away from being blown up by the Death Star with his "lucky shot"? Far more likely she would have fallen in love with him for fulfilling Luthens plans. Luke had a hard on for his sister, he wasn't straying.

NBA 2025 Conference Finals: Play For Blood and Take Their Souls

Presumably because he wanted a defensive stop and that doesn't happen with Kat on the floor. -

Precious cant get minutes because he has the basketball IQ of a rotten potato. -
If it at least doesn't have one sequence of somebody riding in, jumping off spirit horse, roll twice, guts greatsword forward stab then jumping back onto spirit horse, it just ain't Elden Ring

If Ingram is healthy with Giannis Toronto isn't far off actually.

DC Cinematic Universe: Dragongirl of Steel
Slurktan replied to AncalagonTheBlack's topic in Entertainment
The destruction is a logical result though. Superman is literally dealing with a bull in a china chop at the end of MoS who is as powerful as he is. Batman isn't privy to the conversation between Zod and Superman like we are. Absolutely he would see Superman as contributing. -

Not defending Snyder... but are you really requiring your centuries old warrior general be stupid enough to get tricked out of a city when the entire point him being in the city in the movie is to kill as much as possible because he has already lost? Are you actually an idiot? -
Wheel of Time 5: The Shadow Downsizing [book spoilers]
Slurktan replied to SpaceChampion's topic in Entertainment
Simple solution to problem 3. Once it happens and is discovered. Have a throw away line "We have set wards to dispel Mask of mirrors". at wherever, (or even just once and state as will be done always going forward). And then have one small scene where a black ajah tries to get in; the mask comes down and shes caught/killed immediately. -
We have seen the security office. It is the room Dylan meets his wife in. They specifically have him remark on it. Which would imply there is a new security office which the Innies have no idea about. EDIT: I would guess its the same room the watchers are in on the testing floor. Drummond comes from there in the finale up the elevator to the severed floor.

Rand reacts to it in Lord of Chaos, first thinking that he is related to Elayne, then learning that Galad is his brother. He then does that Rand thing where he refuses to talk abou it because he needs to be stronger etc. As for spinoffs, the end of Manatheren. Anything else is the wrong answer. -

Rand needs a macguffin for it to work. I'm sure they can make another flawed thing, or you know just use the black adaam. -

My question would be.... why not have both be destroyed when cleansing or neither? The Callandor flaw is not a strong plot point as its only purpose story wise is to keep Rand's power down. -

So very much liked the 3 eps. Yes they still have some issues but I can get past them. Some thoughts: - Loved the 3 boys playing Snakes and Foxes in ep 1. Subtle confirmation plus the door in the hold that this stuff hasn't been cut. - Am liking Mat and his plotline a lot. Yes differences from the books but not bad changes., He will likely still go through the doorway and instead of asking to get his memories filled likely just make them make sense now. I like that the battle memories/Horn make him a better warrior rather than him just being super good as in the books. I geeked out hard when he said "It's time to toss the dice" before the fight with G & G. - As put earlier the Forsaken stuff has been really good. Rahvin much more jovial than sinister but i really liked his intro. I'm of the opinion that Asmodean is cut, Taim is Demandred (as he should have been in the books) and he will teach Rand and start the black tower next season. Let the Lord of Chaos rule. - I presume Thom is coming back in Tanchico, and as they should cut the Thom/Moraine thing, he will likely also fulfill Joal's role should they get to that point in the series. - Elaida was great. So the twitchy arm/bracelet thing is Foxes related? -
Its pretty obvious this season is 10 eps instead of 9 like season 1 is cause they couldn't fit in elsewhere. Its obviously needed to explain why Cobel would help Mark but you couldn't really stick this into eps 4-7. Im pretty confident that the finale is going to be an inverse of season 1s. There the innies went out, this one the outie goes in.
