    Yup it is. Most recent example is Space Marine 2. I don't have a problem paying full price if the review consensus is that it's good enough to warrant it. So I waited for the reviews, and my most trusted reviewers lavished it so I bought it day one. Lo and behold it lived up.

    I don't expect the same for ES6.

    Honestly I'm expecting a hot steaming pile of garbage given their trajectory. Just another fantasy veneer on the same tired Bethesda formula rife with bugs. My expectations are so low, in fact, my plan is to wait for a good sale to get it, or until I hear that it's released in a playable state but still post release.

    Rushmore was my introduction to Wes Anderson decades ago and it remains my favorite. I quote it weekly, with heavy preference to "O R they?" Love it through and through.

    Thanks! Too often I see battletech bases that have giant grass tufts or other things that are meant for larger scale stuff, and I feel like it winds up making the mechs look and feel too small. Having trees (even shitty ones like these) I feel does a lot in relating the scale of the machines.

    I just watched the first three last night and I'm enjoying it. So far, though... there's nothing new. Just different takes on old villains, and not necessarily with great writing / character motivations. It looks gorgeous, but could use a few more frames here and there, especially in regards to facial expressions, which seldom change from plain.

    I dunno, I'm absolutely going to finish watching it, but the more I think about it right now, the more I feel kinda disappointed. Hopefully the formula changes and does something new and worthwhile over the course of the season.

    I use Army Painter almost exclusively, save for a P3 Wyrm Green I use on my orks and a couple citadel texture paints. They've always been fantastic for me.

    I assume you're talking about the Dragon. No, sadly no others have any explicitly physical Kuritan features.

    A coworker of mine introduced me to these about five or six years ago, when they could only be acquired in specialty Asian grocery stores. Now I can get them at Shaws and I fuckin love them. I've got three packs in my pantry at the moment. They're best if you add microwaved chicken nuggets to them.

    I'd say more that disney burned the bridges and Boyega brought them to light. The entire cast was done dirty by those movies and he was the only one with the backbone to say something.

    DM question - level reset?

    Hey everyone! Just trying to figure out if what I'm thinking is a good idea or the worst idea ever. My group is only two sessions in. They started at level 5. I have them going into a supposed-to-die battle wherein they wake in hell and have to figure out how to get out (yadda yadda this is where the real story starts). I was thinking that when they awaken in the underworld that they'd revert to level 1 and lose their gear, and that's my contention. Is that a dick DM move? Or would it make sense? I know it's hard to give a solid answer and the best way to know is to know my players, but I don't exactly want to ask them for obvious reasons. How would you all feel? Thanks!

    It seems like this was dropped on WHTV rather unceremoniously. I didn't realize it was out until I saw a YouTube thumbnail about it. Anyways has anyone else watched it? What did you think? I was pretty disappointed in it. I thought the writing and acting was pretty terrible and it felt incredibly stilted with the constant breaks throughout to announce a new chapter of a 22 minute episode. What were there, like six? That felt ridiculous and pretentious. Anyways what did you think?

    Help on sensitivity

    Hey all, I'm working on an old western which has some native characters, predominantly of a fictional tribe. I'm wondering if you all think it would be understandable if people spoke (in dialogs only) as the times and used terms like "Indian" or, even worse, "Injun", or should I stick with using tribe names and the word "native"? Or something different altogether? Thanks!
