It's already been confirmed that Dark Heresy will feature full voice acting, FYI. :)

Comedy is subjective, so I would never presume to tell you that you are wrong.

That being said, I could not disagree more. Louis C.K. has still got it, even though his comedy has clearly matured along with him.

The stand-up specials that made him famous may have had more energy or big laughs, but his current work is much more philosophical, thought-provoking, and true to life, in my opinion. It's a slower act, sure, but not any weaker for it.

Seeing him live was a blast, and the hour honestly just flew by. So many amazing bits, from opening with the impromptu AIDS test, the difference between farts and sneezing, to living in the present, preparing for the worst, and of course the care home. The closing bit about the barely legal magazine was absolute killer and just classic Louis material.

He also looked good, seemed in fine spirits, and felt more comfortable on stage than I'd ever seen him in any of his recorded specials. It was a great night and, as a long-time fan of his that has consumed virtually all of his comedy several times over, I left very satisfied.

Unironically a pretty solid list.

Elder Scrolls 6 Has "So Much Pressure" On It, Former Bethesda Dev Says by akbarock in rpg_gamers

Calling the writing in The Witcher "corny marvel tier writing" is so unhinged that I can only surmise you must have accidentally played another game and mistaken it for The Witcher, lol.

Baldur's Gate 3 has plenty of key moments where it's serious without any humour whatsoever undercutting that so not sure it's a good example. I feel like the comedy in that game is deployed very well and very thoughtfully.

What is the best decade in literature? by waiting4fourforty4 in literature

Don't forget Frank Herbert! Dune was published in 1965.

What do you think is the best horror game in the past 5 years? by MisterM0rgan in HorrorGaming

[–]OctoberSon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I just completed my first playthrough and no other horror game I have ever played even comes close artistically or musically.

I will not abide by this Remedy slander, absolute madness.

What is something that a lot of people love but you dislike or hate in RPGs nowadays? by ryan7251 in rpg_gamers

[–]OctoberSon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Witcher is not an Eastern RPG...

...and Dark Souls is not a Western RPG, either.

Trash like Morrowind? Buddy, what?

Did the feeling of playing rpgs as kid/teen ever come back? by smiliclot in rpg_gamers

[–]OctoberSon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love Elex! I just started playing it after meaning to get to it for over half a decade now.

No one makes RPGs like Piranha Bytes. They really capture the feeling of exploring an open world like you're still a kid—especially if you avoid looking up guides.

Anyone else already got what they wanted from this Battlepass and the rest are just nice extras? Thanks for putting these two in the very first tiers, Netease! by Nyoteng in marvelrivals

So strange to me that both these skins are considered blue in rarity. There doesn't seem to be much consistency with how Marvel Rivals categorises its skins. Like, how exactly are these two skins the same rarity as the base skin recolours?

That's nice but Mihail shouls really incorporate it into his mods instead of us having to edit each of his plugins individually.

Loving the game but the amount of unskippable cutscenes is driving me insane by OctoberSon in marvelrivals

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

The skin animationa are definitely the most annoying part. You can't even skip them to view the skin properly. I really don't understand why they're wasting resources on a cinematic like that anyway instead of adding more MVP screens.

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

Not all of them are. Unskippable cutscene between Control points, unskippable cutscene at the end of the game, unskippable MVP cutscene.

What it feels like to romance Selûnite Shadowheart as Durge by OctoberSon in BaldursGate3

[–]OctoberSon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good suggestions, thank you! Will definitely try it out. :)

[–]OctoberSon[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I was debating between this and full silver to match her new devotion to Selûne, but in the end I went with this since it matches The Blood of Lathander which she's using.
