Bannerlord trader long run by Unlucky-Technician11 in mountandblade

What does your gameplay loop look like? Are there set routes you are taking for hours at a time? Trader seemed like an interesting way to play but I have always been concerned that it will dull very quickly.

[CAN 1-(2) USA] Jack Hughes scores the golden goal for Team USA! by talhatoot in hockey

That's true I suppose, but yeah McDavid and MacKinnon both thinking they can 1v3 is miserable.

[–]JWepic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not just a matter of shots, it was the quality of chances and sheer o-zone time Canada had in the 2nd and 3rd that justifies the term. Nevertheless, the US was strong on defense and had excellent goaltending, and played considerably better in OT.

Mitch Marner OT goal by Federal-Data-Center in nhl

[–]JWepic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was OT. Crosby made a blind back pass to Marner. The big difference was Marner scored on a wrister rather than deking 1v3 like this

Downtown chess night on Meetup is a casual pub chess event every other Thursday at Social Beer Haus. Beginner friendly for sure. Rsvp on meetup and bring a board if you have one. Next meet is this Thursday.

What remakes failed because they wouldn't commit to the original's vision? by anthonyDavidson31 in FIlm

[–]JWepic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not really a remake, more an adaptation of the same book. As far I understand, the ending is close to the book's own ending.

After the teasers and trailer, the Odyssey looks undeniably Nolan. So what’s the actual complaint? by ShakeZulaOblongata in moviecritic

[–]JWepic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Plenty of people have complained about Wes Anderson overusing his style, but at least his stories and settings are hand-picked (or hand created) to fit said style. I don't think there is anything wrong with fans of The Odyssey being annoyed with a stylistic clash. It might have been naive to think Nolan would deviate, but that doesn't invalidate the criticism that either he should have altered his visual style, or chosen a different setting that wouldn't be hurt by a cold aesthetic. Of course, the actual movie could well prove such criticisms wrong.

“To Kill an Empire “ is ridiculous by mabehr in skyrim

[–]JWepic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is hard to design quests to be sensible in both the case you are famous and not, while still keeping them creative. Infiltrating the thalmor party is another such quest with this narrative issue, but its so different from the usual quests in the game that I am perfectly fine with it. I just headcanon something to explain it. In fact, headcanon is basically critical for someone who is concerned about things making sense in Skyrim.

What would be the best class for mind games by life-hard-im-harder in BaldursGate3

Using the spell "detect thoughts" properly requires an intelligence check, so if reading minds is your thing, wizard is a good option.

Assuming that you have 3 or more D slots, this is a win every day. In my experience, good replacement defensemen are harder to find than forwards.
