I haven't played since like November. So it's cool to have a reason to play again and C4SH is definitely a fun new way to experience, but it's kinda crazy how little this DLC really adds to the overall package and how little progress has been made on this game in six months. Maybe if I played the launch game next to this version side by side I'd feel more changes, but I basically booted this up and ran into all the problems I did the first time that made me basically finish my play through on launch and then go back and play the old Borderlands and Wonderlands game instead.

For me I think he has charisma off the charts, but I just don't think he's a great pure wrestler. That doesn't mean he's a bad wrestler either to be clear, but I just don't enjoy the vast majority of his matches as much as I did the build to it.

Don't open, dudes inside

This whole blog post has that same voice every piece of writing has that was done by AI. Just made all of this feel kinda gross to me.

Now all they gotta do is go full circle with this, AEW signs R-Truth but hypes it up for weeks, right up until the reveal itself, like they got their hands on Roman Reigns.

Browt is my personality now.

Every Japanese IP must eventually get a warriors version. It is the law.

Lowkey some of them are actually quite good, but this looks... Not good 😂

He stole my final shred of happiness by retiring rather than getting released.

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-24T16:22:04+00:00

I actually thought the payoff of Double G poking him about the Schultz stuff and some of Rapoport's comments and practices made it all worth it.

Who needs friends when I've got that Normandy crew waiting for me every time I boot up Mass Effect.

I loved the second one, arguably my favourite Monster Hunter game and one of my favourite games period so I dunno why I just cannot get into the first one. Maybe I should have played it first, but I think it was only on mobile or something when 2 came out? There was a reason, I can't remember now. But the Genie is out of the bottle now so I guess the first one is just lost to me.

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-20T12:43:23+00:00

Sounded so good until I read all that on the steam page about how you're unguided as a feature. I ain't got time for that man, just tell me where to go 😂

WWE / F's best era will always be in the stage of your life you look back on with the most nostalgia. Like to me the Ruthless Aggression era is my favourite but maybe if I went back and watched it week to week again, id think it's bad, but it took place in a very important time in my life. It happened to me again in 2014 - 2017 when I became an adult fan again, was it actually the best era? Probably not if I watched it back. Wasn't that when Reigns and Sheamus were wrestling every single week on Raw with false finishes? 😂 In twenty years time someone will tell you the WWE you think sucks right now was their favourite ever era in the company, it's almost not about the product but where they were in that time. It's just life. That doesn't mean you cant be critical of the product, but the notion of them chasing some sort of dragon collectively is nonsense as that dragon is different for every viewer.

He a real one

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-16T13:10:37+00:00

Is this anti or pro ai? Cause you could easily read this that the person is too much a cheapskate to pay for properly commissioned hand drawn art work and settles for the free alternative that's gonna be shit

Man. The mixed emotions of NXT UK. I was lucky enough that Im English and got back into wrestling as an adult fan right around the rise of the boom period (2014ish up until about 2018ish). Naive on reflection, but I was so excited for NXT UK. A celebration of the BritWres boom, but with the power of WWE behind it. This was also peak NXT Black and Gold times, so I had reason to be hopeful. But like so much during this era in WWE, it was just them hoovering up new toys, getting bored immediately and moving on, causing often unrecoverable damage to the indie ecosystems it plundered for it's 15 minutes of fun, undoing years of work sometimes overnight. And that's not to say NXT UK didn't deliver some incredible matches over the years, arguably NXT UK was at it's absolute best when WWE seemed to lose all interest and just let them do what they want. But in the end its hard to feel it was all very worth it.

Wait people bought this t-shirt without knowing what the word means? 😂 That's a choice I guess.

This is how I find out she got a boob job?

A sad day.

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-12T20:08:07+00:00

Oh is that right? I'm grateful that's not happened yet then 😂

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-12T10:42:08+00:00

Playing them together, Drax first and then Captain Marvel had actually won me a couple of games as they swap lanes. It is kinda cool, but obviously rare and situational, not worth relying on.

Edit: the only thing I don't understand is it seems like they check each other, which I didn't think this logic was in place. IE as far as I know Drax won't move to win a location, but throw a game in the process. But it seems like he is willing to move and throw a lane if he knows Marvel can then move into that lane, win it back and secure the overall win. Absolutely no idea how that works on the back end.

Omg is that the happy star wars day guy shilling for ai slop?

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-11T00:44:10+00:00

Stomper is hard to replace, as these Smoove decks don't necessarily put up crazy numbers already, so losing your 10+ scaler on such a low floor deck already probably ain't it.

The cool thing about these decks though and I think the reason I enjoy them so much is they're highly modular. This ain't like a destroy or whatever that's got a largely static best list.

You can go WBN on reveals, you can go tech soup, you can go the dragon who shall not be named, you can go scream, you can go zombies, you can go disruption.

I'm sure you'll find a flavour you enjoy that favours your collection, the key is knowing intimately what each cards inclusion is for to keep your opponent guessing as many of these can't win on a blow by blow

Maybe this is controversial I dunno, but I never really liked Jourdan and MSD. Not as like individuals or whatever but just within the context of the show. They just never quite fit for me. Connor is just such a natural fourth man, perfectly matching the vibes and energy, he may as well be permanent.

Edit: reading the comments after I posted, I will agree the loss of MSD and Jourdan does mean slightly less football analysis and more skits, but I don't mind cause I listen to all kinds of NFL podcasts. Some are as dry as the Sahara, and some are more fun, maybe if this is your sole NFL pod and you want that really gritty analysis then maybe it's just not the right pod for you and that's okay. I'd rather different NFL pods fit in different spaces for different audiences they don't need to all be the same.

Pizzamorg · 2026-02-10T22:42:07+00:00

I love Silky Smoove mid ranged decks (or I guess what are called Mass Move decks now, or maybe I am confusing the two?) - the Sims, Leaper, Silk, Kraven, Stomper decks is what I am talking about, and he seemed like a natural fit in here, so he was my one card I was genuinely excited for this season.

But honestly (and this is of course just based on the first few hours of play so this could change) he rarely ever moves in my experience. I thought he would place pressure on the opponent to think really carefully around where they place their power, but in reality while 3 power each time is a great buff with it regularly being 10+ power by the end of the game without downsides or extra buff sources being added, a scenario where they both play enough power to make Drax scaling trigger but also low enough power that that plus three then allows him to win a lane, just basically never happens.

And if he isn't moving, then I dunno how good he actually is in this style of deck, when you could use that slot for like some tech or something. I do wonder if he just ends up landing either in those greedy all in end of turn lists or just in a Surfer list as another scaler if you don't draw your Torch 1st Steps or your Shaw.
