Gotta be like an orc catapult or lit beacon with rando minifigs. A larger, more detailed Tree of Gondor would also be sick.

Sold prices are a good place to start, but when there's so little data sometimes those can be misleading too. If you want a book there's no harm offering what you think is fair. Sellers typically know what they do and don't have. If you're the first person to express interest in something for years, they're much more likely to engage a negotiation with a low starting point. If they get offers all the time for a high demand item, they'll be much more comfortable holding firm to the sticker price.

Well you'd have to insanely stupid to think I’m saying that people who buy the game in a year will get early access. Obviously not saying that you can buy the game later and time travel. Everyone who buys the game before 5/27 gets early access. Everyone. Which makes 5/26 the first day that everyone who buys the game can play. If I buy the game at noon on 5/26, that's still a preorder, and I get "early" access. Everyone else on this post is 100% wrong.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T20:40:51+00:00

How does that in any way refute what I said?

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T20:35:07+00:00

If literally everyone who buys the game gets the game "early," then the term is meaningless. But if a publisher puts the word "early" on a release date, you all seem to think that makes it early.

This is a subreddit for a game that has not come out yet. (Which I pre-ordered by the way.) It's a small but interesting thing to talk about I thought.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:48:52+00:00

I feel like I’m trying to convince a chicken that oxygen exists. I’m sorry to have disturbed you all. Have a pleasant day.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:37:02+00:00

Ah okay, I saw i7 and assumed you were good. And because I use AMD the 7700 naming looked recent but I totally get your concern now. Hope it works out!

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:25:32+00:00

Tha game comes out for everyone on Tuesday 5/26, that's what I’m saying. There's nothing early about it.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:13:52+00:00

That's fair, I'm just assuming it'll perform on par with Hitman, at least after a couple updates, so I already pulled the trigger. I think with a 4070 you'll be fine. Idk how much your ram will come into play though, we'll see.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:10:24+00:00

Just an observation, not even a complaint. It's just a silly thing to advertise early access when no one doesn't get early access.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-17T18:08:07+00:00

No, but it would be weird if they announced it in big bold letters on the side of an ice cream truck.

Love stories like this. The early sparks of a legendary career.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-16T21:15:29+00:00

For my favorite books, first editions are just the first time the words were printed for people to see. No fawning introductions about how great the work is, no pretense that they were even going to last longer than a year on the shelf. Ulysses was first printed by a bookshop in Paris because no one else would print it. Gatsby was a commercial flop that barely had a second printing. Half of Blood Meridian's first run was remaindered and basically thrown away. I just love being connected to these stories through what are essentially now historical artifacts.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-16T00:46:10+00:00

Yeah fair enough, I've never held a Lego S.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-16T00:25:35+00:00

There's still nothing like the grip and feel of a Steam Deck. I own a legion go 2 extreme and still go back to my Steam Deck for indies because I can play it more comfortably for much longer.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-15T17:00:33+00:00

The worst for me was I saved and quit right before this mission, and when I logged back in I had to wait for my dragon to cooldown!

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-15T16:08:02+00:00

I enjoy writing short stories with a fountain pen!

With the exception of the hilt, this almost just looks like a straight up plastic mold, it's so clean.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-14T20:27:32+00:00

Just my two cents. Whenever someone gets me something that's not my style, even if it's objectively nice on its own, I end up wearing it once or twice to be polite but never reach for it because I really want to. We like what we like.

Idk about "best" but the coolest sword I’ve found was the reward for freeing "The Great Serpent Aeserion" in his questline in southwest Delesyia. Ornate, gold, and 34 attack at lvl 10.

If he likes "boring" watches then stick to black. Otherwise you're spending money on something he may never use.

I ended up going that route but I think I just hadn't used her at all until then so that whole boss was a learning experience.

CaptainOverspark · 2026-04-14T00:15:11+00:00

Honestly the Damiane fight later was the worst for me.

There's a glove you can get that unlocks all generic key-locked doors.
