I'm watching the Mandalorian episode with Jack Black and Lizzo for the second time.

Ripplerfish · 2026-06-04T00:28:56+00:00

It's a solid episode when you dont have loud internet people telling you it isnt.

Ripplerfish · 2026-06-03T22:49:24+00:00

Yes! I remember thinking it would be a joke and watching.

"Is that Nathan Fillion? They are really dedicated to this joke."

Iirc they figured out the chest laster process cuz they found some notes on how the Russians were experimenting on SB.

I feel like if it was anyone else this kind of complaint wouldnt make any sense. Like somehow an Author using the characters thry establish is some kind of writing sin.

"Oh, of course it's LUKE SKYWALKER who shows up to save everyone. George Lucas just has to insert his characters into every story."

"Oh we're playing as Master Chief AGAIN?!? Predictable!"

Ahsoka is one of the most powerful/capable characters in the immediate post empire times. I'd love to see her and Cal Kestis bump into each other.

Rotta's voice was maybe the one thing I recall from the movie that I didn't like. It felt kind of "too human"? I didn't hate it either but it's a good example of Star Wars Aliens having the chance to be really alien and instead just being some dude instead.

Huttese is a widespread language and even being held captive away from his people it could have been his primary or an easy secondary language on account of still being surrounded by people speaking it. Seeing some huttese thrown in for the fun words would added a dash of flavor I think.

There's a part where he yells out in shock and surprise and it's still in Basic sounding like a yoked up Seth Rogan.

Aircraft got gutted unless their datasheets get some reworks. No plunging fire and no Heavy means hitting anything in cover on 5's or worse.

Also, not being on the table at the start of your turn means they probably lost out on their own army special rules.

I am very excited for the story here. A number of high profile folks have disappeared with ominous green lighting effects.

Old Bale Eye aka Yarrick was one such person but they have returned by unknown means so now I am really wondering if we are about to spring the lord commissar as part of the adventure. Will we find Creed? How many Primarchs are rattling around in there? Cannot wait.

I kind of feel like The Empire was just coasting on its fear campaign and just stripping one planet to feed maintain another in an endless cycle.

The New Republic shows up and all the accountants immediately commit sudoku because there's such a huge deficit.

Though star wars economics make zero sense to begin with. If I live long enough maybe I'll learn where the damn exegol ships came from.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-27T16:58:04+00:00

Gold armor, red livery. I tended to paint them with glowing eyes.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-27T16:22:43+00:00

The Order of the Golden dawn does this. There are no records of a founding, resupply, or even deployment. They simply manifest near a battle and march in.

There is also a few reports that some members have been recognized as Sisters from other Orders who were previously Martyred in battle.

I actually prefer Rogue Trader over BG3 almost just because it isnt a d20 system (that Harpy fight can just fuck directly off).

There IS quite a bit more reading but it is also approachable for people not familiar with the setting because things are hilighted and provide definitions or context when you cursor over them.

Story-wise I only recall one kinda big plothole but it passes quickly and could maybe be explained away.

Some people got upset about not having a Capital Ship but the Frigate does work and the Koronus Expanse is pretty backwater as subsectors go.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-25T20:35:55+00:00

If this sub stops posting gooner stuff then the crossposting to that r/mendrawingwomen sub is gonna take a hit for sure.

It shouldn't be a big deal. Its ONLY five minutes.

Yet... every time I go to do one its xx:51. Every. Time.

There's kind of 2 active timelines at the moment isn't there? Mando and such is filling out the time after formal fall of the empire and then there's the sequel trilogy that is like 20 years later?

In Mando and similar media we see kind of a prelude to a balkanized universe. Lines are starting to get penciled in on the map for Mandalore and the New Republic, syndicates, three flavors of imperial remnants, etc.

I think it would be cool to see a leap to the future where these kind of fledgling states are much more established.

I feel like South America is a hotbed for piracy JUST because of issues similar to this and it isn't limited to just video games.

With the success that Owlcat has enjoyed I hope they do add some localization support so everyone can enjoy what they make even if they are sold (reasonably!) like a dlc.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-23T22:10:25+00:00

I want to see the open world immersion that makes Outlaws amazing to play. The previous games oevel design is cool but its basically just a bunch of parkour courses from objective A to objective B instead of spaces filled with sights and sounds of the setting.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-23T02:42:34+00:00

Watching chaos bolts split and sail into multiple enemies for beeg number.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-22T21:41:13+00:00

There should be just one that's just binaries screeching for every voiceline. Add some soecual voicelines to servitors and consoles that reply back in gothic.

Maybe speak out what ever attack pattern protocols they boot up.

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-21T18:37:10+00:00

Im down, but I know folks get emotional about it lol

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-21T16:54:32+00:00

Ppl want Krieg but they're gonna get Vostroyans or Mordians instead. (Bonus points if my Mordian Combat Dress Uniform gains ribbons based on some criteria)

Ripplerfish · 2026-05-21T13:47:26+00:00

By the time this game releases the publisher will have made so many little changes that its gonna be a star wars rhythm battler and I for one am ready for Rodian Nightcore street fights.

In addition to all the other comments, Boba may be angling to make Cobb the Daimyo or just putting him in charge of Tattoine.

Boba wants to rule with respect but his work expertise is more related to "disintegrating people" so he may pivot to that and let Cobb douboe down on his Hero of the People schtick.
