Holup, is this real or fan art? When did they make Cable a twink?

That's a fair assessment. There are a ridiculous number of classes and subclasses each with their own quirks. And that's without getting into multiclassing or Wrath's mythic path system. I've definitely spent 20+ minutes leveling up before.
Do you like JRPGs? Yakuza: Like a Dragon is fairly recent and has a sequel (that I haven't gotten to play yet). The story is NOT your typical RPG fare, it's a modern drama about an ex-gangster trying to get back on his feet after prison (it gets emotional, I cried). But the combat is a classic turn-based RPG and it's fun, stylish, and just barely complex enough to stay engaging.

The graphics are much simpler than BG3, but Owlcat has done some fantastic work with their Pathfinder games.
Wrath of the Righteous is much more polished and expanded than Kingmaker, but they're both great. They both have the option to play in turn-based like BG3, or real time with pause like the old BG games.

I'm now imagining Jeff Goldblum as Gale and I kind of love it.
We're reaching for characters at this point, but I suppose we could cast Shadowheart as Moondragon and Wyll as Adam Warlock for the lols if nothing else.
You might be onto something with Halsin & Groot... could rotate between him and Minthara until Minsc is available.
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?

I'm with you when the onions are raw. Cooked, the texture is tolerable enough that the taste is worth it IMO. Though I do prefer them chopped small or sliced thin no matter what.

Yes. Also due to free time, climate change, a global swing towards fascism, and the fact that I find all children unpleasant to be around.

A winner is... me?! This is incredible!
Installing FF5 now because I love the early iteration of switchable classes, then I'll loop back around and play them in order. So I guess I have the next 300-400 hours planned.
Thank you again CatZoomies, you're my hero.

Children deserve better movies than this soulless green-screened cash grab.
They also deserve better games than Minecraft IMO, but that's a different conversation.

To me, cooked onion is delicious and enhances most meals. Raw onion has an incredibly unpleasant crunch and ruins anything it's in.

My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard, really.

Shadow Madness on PS1. Unlikable characters, incoherent story, bad graphics, and boring gameplay. It was like someone drew a better JRPG from memory.

Twisted Metal: Black II please. Or even one that's a little more of a dark comedy like TM2. I just know I hated everything after Black. (Why the fuck were we racing instead of fighting sometimes?!)

I haven't gotten to try it yet, but I hear Dread Delusion has a lot of Morrowind's visual style and weirdness, if not quite the same gameplay.
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.
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?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/9692419 > Side note, is there anything like Interdimensional Cable on Lemmy yet?
For those unfamiliar with the term "diegetic music", it refers to music that's actually played in the story rather than just for the benefit of the audience. The characters can hear it too. With that in mind, are there any musicals where the characters acknowledge that they're constantly breaking into song? Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "Once More with Feeling" is the best example I can think of for this.
Paladin Claus is coming to town...
Or the rap artist "Jay-Zed"?
