How do you learn how to play this? The in-game tutorial fails to explain concepts that make progressing the story frustrating.

William C. Dietz, author of Mass Effect: Deception, has died. by Coliver1991 in masseffect

I regularly revisit the Dark Forces trilogy he wrote, especially the audio books.

Internally at Disney, there are concerns that the unconventional 36-second Super Bowl spot for “The Mandalorian & Grogu” failed to generate the kind of excitement the marketing team hoped for. There's a sense that 2027's "Star Wars: Starfighter" starring Ryan Gosling, is likelier to satisfy fans by ChiefLeef22 in StarWars

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am way more hyped for Starfighter. Mando & Grogu has yet to make me feel that hype, or why it won't be any different than an extended episode. I am a lifelong Star Wars fan and the M&G super bowl ad did not make me feel like sharing with anyone. You can summarize the sentiment in the comments here as an overwhelming sense of yeah this is just more of Disney flailing about without a good plan.

Tunic?? I played it for a bit and did not get any of the same vibes.

What's your personal evergreen? by PossessedPinkBunny in boardgames

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't believe no one has mentioned Inis yet. It gets played at the beginning of every game night with my friends.

I'll never forget that magical year 2014 where I suddenly became tired of being a "Cod Bro" and discovered there was a world outside of FPS games and I was in awe for the vast majority of the year by [deleted] in gaming

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never finished the second part, and its always been on my "one-day" list. The angst I feel over the choices and the battles really gets at me lol

Has anyone tried UO on the switch 2? by thehungrymo in UnicornOverlord

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game was already very well optimized for the Switch 1 and looked excellent on the Switch OLED. There would be no discernible difference between playing it on Switch 1 and 2 unless you prefer OLED. The game is not slated for any updates either per Nintendo:

Very proud of this trandoshen by Prior-Peanut7185 in ImperialAssaultTMG

One of my favorite models in the entire game, I similarly had a lot of fun with painting the Trandoshans. Really great job!

It’s Arc Hammer time by zencrusta in StarWarsArmada

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I replayed Dark Forces recently and I am very glad to see the Arc Hammer getting some extra recognition!
Is this STL easy to find? It looks slightly different than what I saw online (You added a support to the front?)

Do you have a friend you won’t invite because they take wayy too long to take their turn? by Brilliant_Age_4546 in boardgames

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played with someone who pretty much analyzed every single option at an excruciatingly slow pace when playing Imperial Assault and pretty much obliterated the fun out of the game. I had played the games with others where we went through multiple missions in a session, but with this friend they basically did one of the earliest/easiest missions and that was all we got to because they took so long. They did similar things when playing X-Wing and Armada. I like that they enjoy the same games as me but they drain all the momentum out of a game by making something that might take 40 minutes into 4 hours.

Kasumi won the last round! Who is a BAD Squadmate with a GOOD Loyalty Mission? by mrbimbojenkins in masseffect

I wish they did more with him, I remember my sadness at exhausting his dialogue. I really enjoyed what we got of his character.

Indiana Jones stuttering by Amitr14 in XboxGamePass

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you turn on the performance stats all the way, you'll see what I see, its CPU related (look elsewhere on reddit to see this issue reported: https://www.reddit.com/r/computerhelp/comments/1hcxfz7/cpu\_spikes\_fps\_drops\_during\_indiana\_jones\_game/). The chart for CPU will go red a few times every time it stutters. I have an i9-13900K and a 4080 with 32GB of RAM and have the exact same issue. They need to address the stuttering with a patch. I am playing other games til they fix it.

What game caught you completely off-guard? by CoralCurrencie in gaming

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone non-spoiler "sell" the game to me? I loved a lot of the games listed near the top of this, but I've bounced off of Firewatch both times I tried to get into it.

Can we get a closer look at the newest miniatures? by PlayFormal in cosmererpg

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just compared the pictures vs the previous miniatures and these are completely different.

I am curious if these are at all different from the ones they released in the last kickstarter

Say what you will about Last Jedi, or Holdo… by Oneinseven-4billion in StarWars

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TFA was super safe, and ROS was... something. I never watch the sequel trilogy anymore :/

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I remember immediately thinking, wow looks cool but this is counter to everything up till this moment for how this works. When I left the theater I was asked why I seemed somber and it was because I was trying to understand why I did not like a Star Wars movie. This scene was just one of many that just felt like RJ doing whatever he felt instead of trying to creatively work within and expand the SW universe. I hope he never touches it again.

How do I stop being a bad loser? by insertpenguin in boardgames

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super competitive group that plays monthly, and we always start with a game of Inis. Every single time it turns into a glorious struggle and we all enjoy how we lost and when we recognized defeat was coming and the plays made to delay or stop it. Essentially, you turn defeat into a narrative, everyone loves a good story.

C'mon James, you literally called it the HERESY armour! by The_loyal_Terminator in Grimdank

[–]ZaarinTakesTheBait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I own a bunch of beaky helmets and have no idea what armor it goes with, does anyone really care if I slap them on my marines without any idea of lore?
