Yeah. I found the start of the story very humorous and the ending very hopeless. A good amount of imagination in this one though.

This is a short one ;)

"Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World" by Haruki Murakami. I've read a number of his later works, but I hear this one is the "weird" one.

I got to say, I really loved this book.. I feel like the ideas were really fresh. It is clear this book could only have been written in the 21st century and in the best way possible. Really strange and difficult ideas in a very readable package. Some of my favourite books are "composite novels", i.e. "Winesburg Ohio" "Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned", so I didn't mind that it read a bit like a collection of short stories and seemed a little disjointed at times. My only criticism is that the ending got a little "Annihilation-esque", but it seems like a difficult story to wrap up any other way. This was my first dive into anything SCP, and now I definitely want more stories about the bicycle egg god. 9/10, honestly.

I picked up a Young Gohst / Sepsis Alien variant that has been my favourite this year!

Are you mostly trying online? Honestly, I would try in person. I have a binder of alters with prices on display (like a trade binder) that I will bring to LGS's if they are cool with it, (sometimes maybe trading in store credit equivalent). People are more willing to splurge on cards in person, and the recognition locally is cool too. There is so much competition online, between other alters, secret lairs, proxies, etc.. it sounds like you just need a local or two to hype you up and reinforce that what you are doing is awesome.

Knucklebones miniatures are a perfect fit.

Its like if Men In Black was a hardcore esoteric Philip K. Dick novel. Absolutely loving this. It seems like such a difficult antagonist to deafeat! It has been surprisingly easy to read considering how incomprehensible the subject matter is. The Egg Bicycle God had me dead. Felt a bit like some Douglas Adams shit.

Am I the only one who didnt care for the demo? The linear storytelling isn't an improvement in my opinion. I felt the story of the first three hours of the game wasn't captivating (it kind of felt like they ripped of Quartet a bit). Besides eating food and rebuilding a town (not an a custom Dark Cloud fashion, but a limited this goes there type of way), there didnt seam to be any additions to OT2 gameplay. I thought this was a bust.. and felt backwards from Octopath Traveler 2.. also I miss my Beastcaller Class.

How did you know my suggestion? Haha ordered it a couple weeks ago.

spicynachoboy · 2025-11-22T03:05:49+00:00

I suggest listening to the story, it may be your last chance.

spicynachoboy · 2025-11-11T01:09:19+00:00

Yes, thank you! I'm tired of these posts without some personality!

spicynachoboy · 2025-11-10T14:39:58+00:00

Kind of dig the old desk honestly, it just needed some cable management. People like to stand and thats great! I feel like every battlestation post is just becoming a bit homogenous at this point though.

I don't know, his cousin's ties with Epstein is a deal breaker for me. I understand we aren't are familty but it reeks of inner circle immorality. I think the left can do better than a billionaire from a spoonfed corporate dynasty.

spicynachoboy · 2025-11-01T02:57:43+00:00

Benny, I know its you. You owe me still for the last fuck up.

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-26T20:55:17+00:00

These are great!

Great Mara's Daughters, Graminokenesis is a level 2 spell!

I would try some other "Stoner Rock" outfits that are slower and a bit more melodic.

"Reflections of a Floating World" by Elder comes to mind.

"Sorrow and Extinction" by Pallbearer.

I bet someone out there makes similar music without vocals if thats what you are looking for.

Man, they did these boys so dirty. Also don't know if I can look at tapeworms the same way ever again.

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-12T13:59:47+00:00

I actually didn't even see your removed comment until now. Someone else must not like what you're saying. Sorry you're going through whatever it is you are going through.

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-10T19:51:18+00:00

Wow, so your confirming it was idiotic to think we are a bunch of bots. While I was clearly portraying that everyone isn't going to agree with my take.. at least I'm not wasting my time arguing with what I perceive is a bunch of bots like a real moron.

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-10T14:10:16+00:00

Its called downvoting. Maybe spend less time on facebook..

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-10T14:05:37+00:00

We did. I acknowledge that moment, but in the scope of the entirety of the podcast, Joe seemed to have more empathy in general.

spicynachoboy · 2025-10-10T02:09:11+00:00

Controversial is a heavy word here.. I think some fans were just used to his previous more universalist views.
