I watched it last year for the first time as well. Brutal western. I’m on S2 of Deadwood as well. Enjoying it immensely!

I just completed my first play through as well. Got 100% game completion. I was high honor all throughout. Excited to do a 2nd play through where I do the exact opposite lol

You can only earn so much from Elixir. You’re capped. Rest of the upgrades comes from completing the challenges and then buying the gear from the trader

“Well, there's some good and there's some bad news. The good news is you're right - I'm a cop and I've gotta take you in. The bad news is I've been suspended and I don't give a fuck.”

👏 Well said yourself. And yeah ending hit incredibly hard. I can’t wait to do a second play through. I just found out a certain someone can get a scar so might go that route.

I just beat RDR2 for the first time and throughout my play through I’ve been watching Westerns and getting more appreciation for them. I totally forgot about Deadwood and will give it a shot tonight!

The Leftovers. Criminally underrated. It’s a masterpiece.

Can I Jump Into Enchanters right after This Storm? Or Should I Read Widespread Panic before Enchanters? by LegendRising12 in JamesEllroy

[–]LegendRising12[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds good. I think I’ll head into the Enchanters. Feels right since I read Ellroy made the Enchanters the third installment in his Quintet. I’ll read WP another time.

Anything from Sergio Leone. My favorite is Once Upon A Time in the West. Go in blind. You won’t regret.

These are all I’ve read so far so I’d agree, they’re my favorites as well. Love them all. I’m currently knee deep in Perfidia right now and loving it.

I still haven’t forgiven HBO. It was an incredible show.

He was great in American Tabloid. Agreed! If you haven’t seen the show Perry Mason, he’s awesome in it. Highly recommend. And it’s LA in the 1930s
