Because otherwise we wouldn't have Walter Murphy's "A Fifth of Beethoven".

Mulled wine here. It's delicious and it makes me feel medieval-fancy.

That's a fair assessment. There are a ridiculous number of classes and subclasses each with their own quirks. And that's without getting into multiclassing or Wrath's mythic path system. I've definitely spent 20+ minutes leveling up before.

Do you like JRPGs? Yakuza: Like a Dragon is fairly recent and has a sequel (that I haven't gotten to play yet). The story is NOT your typical RPG fare, it's a modern drama about an ex-gangster trying to get back on his feet after prison (it gets emotional, I cried). But the combat is a classic turn-based RPG and it's fun, stylish, and just barely complex enough to stay engaging.

The graphics are much simpler than BG3, but Owlcat has done some fantastic work with their Pathfinder games.

Wrath of the Righteous is much more polished and expanded than Kingmaker, but they're both great. They both have the option to play in turn-based like BG3, or real time with pause like the old BG games.

Not to flood the community, but several people seemed to like the last one. So here's another taste of bardcore, this time a collab from two of the greats.

I fuckin' love bardcore, and Hildy is the godsdamned QUEEN!

A haunting medieval style cover of NIN's classic, Hildegard's version seems to tell the tale of a regretful immortal crushed under the weight of outliving everyone they connect with.

And a question for the comments, any interest in a possible c/bardcore community? Or is there one my search missed?

It's not warm when she's away

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

And she's always gone too long

Anytime she goes away

One of my favorite genres, always looking for more. Bonus points if it's currently on streaming.

I've watched the absolute hell out of That Mitchell and Webb Look, Kids in the Hall, Whitest Kids U Know, and obviously SNL and MadTV but both of those had a lot of ups and downs.

I saw the one season each that Astronomy Club and The Moth Effect had and they were both pretty good. I've seen some A Bit of Fry and Laurie, but can't find a good place to stream it. TripTank was basically a sketch show with cartoons, and I liked that a lot too.

Remember folks, you can't spell Mark Hamill without Arkham.

Oh no! People are being mean to the human equivalent of an unwiped asshole covered in weeping pus sores?

So, when you remove what I assume is an announcement bot and lizard people from the equation, the answer is George Takei? Yeah, that sounds about right.

I used to play the hell out of 1 and 2 back in the PS2 days, but I haven't touched the series beyond that, and haven't even played 1/2 much in the last 10 years.

How would you rate 4 in comparison? I noticed it was on sale in the Switch eShop, and I'd love to have one of the series to play on the go.

What I loved about the ones I played:

  • Story had a good balance of comedy and heart
  • Flexible and fun character building, with decent enough defined classes to get you started
  • Tons of post-game/side content (I didn't like every piece of it, but I liked how much there was to try.)
  • CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH
  • Perfect geochains, though I was usually too smoothbrain for it.

What I didn't like:

  • Item world, IIRC worse in 1 than 2?
  • Adell's siblings
  • Demon court thing?

Well, I can't say I can name even one of her songs, but if she triggers magats and has Luke Skywalker on her side, then I guess it's time to get Swiftie in here or whatever.

So the timeline of the new Trek movies starts with the villain Nero going back in time. When he gets there, he destroys a ship called the USS Kelvin. That ship was not destroyed in the original Star Trek timeline, so the new timeline is called that because the Kelvin's destruction was the first major point of divergence that lead to the other changes in that timeline

Side note, is there anything like Interdimensional Cable on Lemmy yet?

I would also argue that "whores and scoundrels" is more inclusive. You can be either one regardless of your parts or gender identity.

Which sounds rad as fuck. Like how you'd open a speech for the Guild of Calamitous Intent.
