| saspa 03/21/21 10:53:53 AM #39 | And what exactly happened with Saruman? Not just with regards to him turning to "the dark side" or whatever. When he was doing his plan and telling orcs to cut down trees, did he not know the ents would revolt and get angry with him? The Ent himself said that Saruman used to walk among the trees so he knew that if he did start burning the forest he would awaken the Ents wrath. Also is that all it took to defeat Saruman, walking trees trashing the place? Didn't he have a magic stick that shoots fireballs? I'm sure the Ents joining the overall battle for Middle Earth would have helped, but for them to solo Isengard seems suspect. --- |

| saspa 03/21/21 10:52:44 AM #8 | I tried replaying Vice City but I just couldn't. I replayed GTA 3 for nostalgia sake, and San Andreas, but Vice City is this weird blend of not quite GTA 3 but not as advanced as San Andreas (and you know what, it's BS that water kills you in a game literally set in Miami...) --- |

| saspa 03/21/21 8:06:10 AM #73 | You know, I never liked her much either. I did feel sorry for her at times, and definitely thought that Bennet guy was a real scumbag for getting her pregnant and leaving her high and dry. But otherwise she is kinda annoying at times yeah. Can't blame her too much considering the drug infested upbringing she had under Aleida but still. They still haven't revealed what got her in prison but she just seems like a generally aimless careless person --- |

| saspa 03/21/21 12:33:18 AM #71 | I like how Aleida is being all Macbethian and pushing that one head guard to be Warden so that she has a man on the inside for her drug business. That is completely expected of Aleida to use her sexuality to try and get a good home and her kids back. And Daya... wow. This show has a thing with turning once pregnant ladies into ruthless gang leaders and possible killers. --- |

| saspa 03/19/21 6:21:12 AM #30 | https://images.static-bluray.com/movies/covers/12237_large.jpg This is the one I have. Out of curiosity, do they offer the original theatrical versions for people to rewatch? Sometimes I wanna see how the movies were originally presented to the mainstream audience. netflix had the movies last year before they were removed and I think it was the original version since I didn't see the extended scenes in it. --- |

| saspa 03/19/21 5:29:21 AM #68 | Finished season 6. I'm glad they address the ridiculousness of the girls buying into Barb and Carol's feud. I was also surprised (but it's also fitting) that they ended up taking each other out, showing how toxic they are to each other as well as others. And also that Barb gets physical, I wasn't expecting it. Maybe a bit too neat and tidy that they took each other out. I'm confused though, did they set up that entire c-block/d-block war just to disguise themselves as Florida-block and get in to stab and kill Frieda? That seems... like way too long term a plan for Carol to have had the patience for it. And I feel like Barb shouldn't really hate Frieda as much as Carol since Frieda betrayed Carol, and Barb was already "the enemy" or rival back then. Lastly, Barb and Carol literally killed their baby sister in one of the most sadistic, horrific ways possible for 2 deranged teen girls, they literally trapped her in a car and had her drown in an icy lake. So how come they're not lifers (they deserve even worse, and should get a psychological assessment to see how their sociopathy developed) because Carol said she initially only had "25 years" and for what she did, that punishment is no where near enough. --- |

| saspa 03/18/21 1:26:33 PM #11 | I'm still not sure what refried beans even are. I tend to soak and boil beans which tastes much better and has better texture, basically means that I can add beans in almost every meal for those great nutrients and fiber content. --- |

| saspa 03/18/21 1:19:34 PM #1 | Why? Typical dark shows and grimdark shows have that, regardless of quality, eg most of HBO's stuff. Agents of Shield had it in the final few seasons, the set and stuff was literally darker, I had to turn the brightness up on my monitor. Watching Doom Patrol and it's so dark sometimes when they're not outside in the sun. When they're inside in the mansion at night it's so dark that I have to wonder --- |

| saspa 03/17/21 6:11:55 AM #65 | Wow piper is getting out early. I wonder how she'll screw that up. Does anyone else feel sorry for Maria? I mean she did a lot of bad shit, but I can't help but bad for her. To think she went from that pregnant lady in the background to heading a gang is some crazy development. When piscatella said he was going to add extra years to her sentence and she just snapped after that... Really shows that punishment after a while just makes people feel like they have nothing to lose and do even worse shit. Speaking of pisc, I kept waiting for them to reveal more about his backstory and why he's such a psychopath to torture women, but literally nothing in his background ever revealed him going from point A to B. --- |
| Topic | Started up Ys memories of celceta again... finally the plot is somewhat moving |
| saspa 03/17/21 5:00:44 AM #7 | I don't think so from what I've played so far, discount-dogi had like 8 health left and he was still alive and only after I accidentally pressed circle and switched to him did he die immediately from a random hit. That's another thing, I accepted it in Ys 7 but I'm not crazy about the whole party member thing where each is a slash, strike or pierce attribute. I simply tolerate it. Also all too often I accidentally press circle and switch to another member when I try to do a move lol. But yeah I kinda prefer just Adol myself, I give him the best equipment first and foremost. --- |

If serious then that'll probably only be true up until the "8k remaster" which includes all the footage ever ("for real this time") and they'll just keep scamming us again and again. I remember seeing a still shot of pre-eye Sauron when he was still a human/elf-like being and was hoping the extended editions would have a past scene with him like they did with Smeagol pre-turning into Gollum. I felt kind of let down there wasn't, I thought they'd pack more lore building scenes. --- |

| saspa 03/15/21 1:52:02 PM #12 | EndOfDiscOne posted... I have one problem with the RotK extended edition. It's that you get a reminder of what Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are doing before they show up at Minas Tirith. It was much better in theaters when you forget all about them, and then they show up. That's one reason I recommend that people watch the theatrical versions. Wait what do you mean. --- |

| Topic | Started up Ys memories of celceta again... finally the plot is somewhat moving |
| saspa 03/15/21 1:41:21 PM #3 | I already played all the previous games, celceta is the last one I need to play before I finally start 8 and buy 9. I made the mistake of playing Ys 7 before celceta, and 7 was just a blast. So it kind of feels like a step down since 7 featured the most story yet in a Ys game, I was surprised by how jrpg-like the story was compared to the minimal story in 0-3. Any tips to keep in mind? I've already noticed that there are some giant enemies I'm not "supposed" to fight now, since they're level 15 and Adol is like level 5? And any tips for navigating because it legit felt like I fumbled my way to the next story segment. --- |

| saspa 03/15/21 1:28:38 PM #7 | Does anyone else find the ending bittersweet? Frodo gets to go to elf heaven with the elves and bilbo, and says goodbye to Sam and the rest. Same goes back home to his wife and children and their little cottage. It's so quaint compared to the all the "epic stuff" happening before. The last we see of the humans is aragorn kissing arwen and them kneeling to the hobbits, we never see if aragorn is necessarily a just king or wise king. And if the elves all went to elf heaven and man inherits the earth, what about hobbits? Are they subject to human rule or... ? --- |

| saspa 03/15/21 1:22:40 PM #1 | I was a bit disheartened to see that it was just a generic dungeon crawler (or forest crawler as it were) and worse that navigating the forest was very tedious compared to a more linear experience. But I just got to the village and met the girl from the opening, who I'm assuming is gonna be my piercer. So yeah the plot is slowly chugging along. --- |
