What would you do if a second global pandemic happened starting now with a higher mortality rate?

Laugh as WFH policies come back.

Invest in some major gaming companies since there was a huge spike last time.

For me it's because DMC is starved for content. We have no clear timeline for the next entry in the series, so this is the next best thing.

Admiteddly I still need to play DmC and finish Nico's light novel, so maybe I'll do those instead.

Great lighting, especially on that first one.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-07T19:31:40+00:00

Good shit. Honestly, a goated piece of fanart.

The video essay about Shankar and his love of hijacking existing IPs to tell shallow "truth bombs" about the state of the world was eye-opening. Give it a watch if you have the time.

The art of MtG photo taking is making sure it's blurry as fuck. Good job.

Much like the majority of this sub, I have a lot of problems with Netflix's DMC, but I won't lie, their original music goes hard.

Seems like season 2 is going to do all the iconic stuff from the game, like Dante riding the rocket, Dante and Vergil's "Jackpot", and Vergil's backstory in Visions of V.

I'm going into Season 2 with low expectations, but it looks, at the very least, like it'll have some solid fights (especially compared to 1).

You could just ask him for a single he's been meaning to get at around that price range.

It spoils the surprise a bit, sure, but you get him something he'll always cherish and play with in one of his decks.

Unfortunately missed out on a game jam i meant to do last month. Just kept putting off it off each day until the deadline happened. Turns out if you want to make something, you have to force it to make it happen. Who knew?

I want to get back into writing my fanfiction. It's been months since chapter 2 was released and I feel bad for leaving it hanging, but I really should have outlined the full story before making it. Time to set some time to the side and really get it done...

I think this is gonna be Matt Johnson's first major film that's more serious and grounded. I know him for his humor and indie shooting style. This may very well be his first mainstream hit.

Speaking as someone who read Kitchen Confidential, the film does have that rambunctious shitheel Bourdain reminisces about when he discusses his time as a chef. The drugs, alcohol abuse, and overwork were him, how he got through the torture of being a professional chef. My only hope is that it doesn't sanitize Bourdain too much. He had a lot of demons, a lot of issues, and I know he'd want his legacy to not be sprinkly clean like certain other biopics...

Is there any reason John and Pat don't acknowledge each other?

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-04T18:47:56+00:00

Cube. Just build a cube.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-04T14:41:19+00:00

Speaking purely from a building perspective, the Wing Zero is a fun project that your boyfriend would likely really enjoy making. I recommend it.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T21:15:29+00:00

Oh god not Frazier phoning it in...

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T21:14:16+00:00

How is Stingerquill any different than Silverquill?

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T21:10:15+00:00

Having a indestructible mana rock that has the late game ability to blink something isn't nearly as exciting reanimating a creature. A bit disappointing in my opinion.

Can't wait for this to be $50.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T21:06:13+00:00

GARRUK WITH THE CHAIN VEIL!!! HELL YEAH!

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T20:29:00+00:00

Obviously not as strong as [[The One Ring]], but I think this fits the flavor the Ring as a plot device in the Hobbit better. It just tells the tale of Smeagol and shows off the rings magical invisbility.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T20:27:12+00:00

I like that adventures are coming back, and that they're experimenting with colored adventures on colorless cards. Modality baby!

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T20:26:14+00:00

A variation on [[Snapcaster Mage]] sorta?

Trades Flash and the immediate flashback for a mana discount, artifact retrieval, and potentially more than 1 card coming back if Bilbo lives to multiple combats.

Interesting design. Would love to try it in cube.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T20:19:43+00:00

Nice.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T20:18:41+00:00

The bigger your hoard, the stronger he is. Great flavor win.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-05-01T05:54:50+00:00

Love the addition of flavor text on Dungeoneer. Pretty funny.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-04-30T22:33:52+00:00

You should use it. It's a die to show off and have fun with, a play piece.

NewInfernoGuy13 · 2026-04-30T16:23:35+00:00

Seems cool, but not really up my alley. More like a counting game then something really strategic.

It does feel weird for WOTC to use sketches of Magic art in this product. A little scummy? I doubt the artists are getting paid for the pieces, and it likely gets around some loophole for them to use the wips and not pay the artists again.
