    If you didn't understand the computer wasn't real I'm wondering what else got past you.

    P. much all of it is grounded in hard theoretical physics but if you don't have at least basic understanding of quantum theory, particle physics, general relativity, dimensional cosmology etc. you might think it's all just magical babble. The line between hard SF and technobabble can be thin...

    Well it's not supposed to be popular science but science-fiction. Literally fictional science. Throwing cool ideas at the wall is kindda the point. I for one found the ideas extremely interesting and stimulating, a product of a genuinely brilliant brain. (As opposed to various midwits and...

    Good thinking. What eased me into the names was to learn in China the first name is a surname and the second is a given name. So the main char Ye Wen-jie is like Johnson Mary or some such.

    More or less. For me and from dozens of comments on the webz I think the peak is the last 2/3 of the second book which will leave your jaw hanging out in terms of sheer pace and reveals. But the last book is the most mindblowing in terms of imagination and scope. It's really one of the most...

    The whole trilogy plus another book (Redemption of Time) by a different author that fills in some blank spaces in the OG trilogy.

    Every entertainment is super subjective. It's in my Top 5 of all SF, for you it might be unreadable. Only way to find out.

    38k to live for a year? For "a team"? Jesus, do you live in woods eating tree bark? Fuck it bro, just make a nude loli shooter next, buy an island and then keep making your niche nerdery until you die.

    GreedFall II: The Dying World - prequel with party-based RTwP combat where native PC travels to the old continent

    Yes but they're levels to this. There is niche successful and then there is mainstream successful.

    GreedFall II: The Dying World - prequel with party-based RTwP combat where native PC travels to the old continent

    They obviously started making it years ago. And before BG3 exploded everybody obviously knew turn based is for sweaty neckbeards and doesn't sell.

    From Software The Dark Souls II Megathread™

    It's actually a p. good boss battle, the AI is tuned so it's hard but manageable. One of the best boss fights in the game IMHO. The problem is most people would need 10+ runs at it and ain't nobody got time for running through those fucking outskirts over and over again. It's easily the worst...

    From Software Dark Souls 3

    If I had to nominate just one game for the All-Time Gaming Hall of Fame I'd vote for DeS. But it's probably the rechargeable healing and especially the seamless world in DS1 that really dragged the series over the home stretch to the mainstream. And the rest is history.

    Second biggest meme in gaming, after Scam Citizen.

    From Software Dark Souls 3

    Bloodborne absolutely isn't flawless but it's still great. The biggest flaws are: - very linear world - most levels are a notable slump in quality compared to DS1 - farmable healing items suck a gigantic landwhale ass and will be always inferior to a rechargeable flask; literally no idea why...
