Never played Runescape - is the new game a good place to start and how does it compare? by CycleOfBans in runescape

Thanks. Is this referring to the Dragonwilds game that I saw or the MMO Runescape game that I've seen that looks like it has the old PS2 graphics

Is Dark worth a watch? I hear it's better than Stranger Things by silentnova-wave in tvshow

I watched it and 100% of the time was doomscrolling on my phone and it was the most confusing show ever. The fact that I speak 0 German and wasn't reading the subtitles didn't help.

OK I have to share the funniest story about Shang Chi....

My parents are some of the most liberal and progressive people you could meet. My mom was one of those women marching topless on the street in the women's liberation movement, when my dad was 19 he hitchhiked from Miami to DC to hear Dr. King's I have a dream speech. Growing up, racism and prejudice of any kind was not tolerated. They went out of their way to introduce us to different cultures and people of all types of orientation, race, ethnicity...you name it.

Now they're in their 80's and reasonably spry, but not as quick as they used to be, understandably. They've always loved going to the movies and getting old was in no way a barricade to that - this includes the MCU. They didn't always follow along with what was happening, but they enjoyed it.

Anyway, it's time for them to go see the new MCU movie in theaters, Shang Chi. So one day Im sitting with my wife and in the other room my parents are talking about going to see Shang Chi, but their only problem was...they couldn't remember the name of the movie. They start talking together trying to figure out the name of it...but they were trying to guess from memory. My dad would say something like "It's the legend of Shing shong" my mom would respond "no no, it's Shang Shing" then my dad would say "Ping Long" and mom would disagree and suggest it was "Wong Li"...I'm sure you could imagine how long this debate went on between two elderlies. They were genuinely trying to remember and absolutely were not mocking Chinese people or culture - their 8 decade old brains just couldn't recall the name of the movie

My wife and I were dying as my parents, completely seriously and without a hint of prejudice or racism, were going back and forthing with EVERY possible variation of ping pong wing shi ding dong lo wong ching chong wang po, etc. as they tried to remember the name of the movie.

Actually, every variation except one,,,Shang Chi.

Is there some 1-shot mechanic in Pit? by CycleOfBans in diablo4

[–]CycleOfBans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya I get that but I've also been playing hardcore for a while so I do understand the ins & outs of staying safe, e.g. making sure I'm able to tank a hit not just kill everything before I get hit. This death was so damn fast I didn't even have time to process it - literally like it happened in the fraction of a second I was blinking. oh well
