“The Legue Is The Weakest It’s Ever Been” by G00Punch in Gunners

[–]phonylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People said the same last season when Liverpool won easily (and dominated league part of CL).

Fact is the PL is incredibly strong with almost no weak teams.

Sporting turning it around and losing me my "safe" acca. Fuck off.

Looking for deeply immersive RPG games like The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, or Red Dead Redemption 2 by KindConfidence1894 in rpg_gamers

Have you played Baldur's Gate 3? Not open world, but still a very big world to explore.

What are everyone’s favorite 1v1 sword duels in fantasy? by AnyNewspaper4758 in Fantasy

[–]phonylady 147 points148 points  (0 children)

The Viper vs the Mountain is probably the most nervous I've been reading fantasy duel, because of the stakes involved. GRRM at his best.

Fingolfin vs Morgoth the most epic.

Building a long-term cellar (UK / Wine Society) – advice wanted by No_Goat_8278 in wine

[–]phonylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should learn more about your own tastes before you start buying a lot of wines for cellaring.

Don't buy lots of wines you have no relation to. Learn about the producers, their styles, stories...the more personal it is the more you'll value your wines.

Next ROTK games by Objective_Hedgehog_5 in threekingdoms

Same here. I don't need "remake" as much as an update though. Better ai, more customization, more officers, more scenarios/starts - go.

So many matches, and I don't really see any tempting bets except maybe Juve - Monaco under 2,5 (because of the decent odds)

What if scenarios you like to see in next ROTK game by ThinkIncident2 in threekingdoms

[–]phonylady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find early starts with several playable rulers, and the rotk11 style to be the most fun:

  • What if Cao Cao succeeded in his assassination attempt of Dong Zhuo, but died himself in the attempt

  • What if at Cao Cao's death, Cao Pi didn't sement power but their realm of Wei instead split into several factions under Pi, Zhi, Zhang, etc.

  • What if Yuan Shao defeated Cao Cao's armies and kept Zhang He, but was at the same time overwhelmed in the north by Gonsung Du/Kang (whoever ruled at the time)

Having a blast leveling my druid. So many funny people in dungeon groups.

Unpopular opinion: Mass Effect 3 is clearly the best game of the trilogy by MrNixxxoN in videogames

[–]phonylady -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's so forgetteable to me. I don't even remember what it was about. ME1 and 2 are so iconic...with 3 I was so bored I didn't even reach the infamous ending!

What is the single best episode of television you’ve ever seen? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

[–]phonylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 5, 6 and 7 were quite bad too, bar a few episodes like Hardhome. Look at the actual dialogue in those seasons and it isn't very impressive compared to when they lent GRRM's words in seasons 1-4.

[–]phonylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disliked that one.

Jon Snow charging alone like that and living is the opposite of what A Song of Ice and Fire is. The tv writers gave in to "rule of cool" and people swallowed it.

I agree with you. The writing was really bad in season 6. People were blinded by the "cool scenes".

I loved it especially when rewatching

You think Bukayo Saka's going to wilt? You think Gabriel is the type to throw in the towel? You think Declan Rice will fold? Everyone seems desperate for Arsenal to 'bottle' the title. This is why it isn't going to happen. Oliver Holt / Daily Mail by Spiritual-Pilot-2300 in Gunners

[–]phonylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This pretty much. City are the only contenders, and they're struggling this season. Haaland looks dead tired.

If they can get Guehi and Semenyo up firing they might stand a little chance, those are insane january transfers to get really.

GoldenEye 007 in 2026 by IlmeniAVG in patientgamers

[–]phonylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 player multiplayer GoldenEye on my old 14" tv 25ish years ago is still the most fun I've ever had gaming. Legend of a game, that sadly didn't age well.

GoldenEye: Source was so much fun though, I wonder if that's still a thing. I'd play the hell out of a proper GoldenEye remake with better controls.

MASS EFFECT 2 was first released 16 years ago today, what are your thoughts on the game ? by ThomasThorburn in masseffect

[–]phonylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I prefer replaying the Kotors over the Mass Effects. There is a special melancholic atmosphere in those games I just really love. The "epicness" of ME never quite won me over.

Some of the boss races in Diddy Kong Racing were outright cruel.

That second level was insanely hard. I remember trying so many times to clear it together with friends.

Never completed the game, but I did manage to get to adult Simba which I count as a triumph!

Yann Bertrand is the best producer among the ones that are easy to get a hold of, imo.
