    Dragon Age 4 - now The Veilguard

    It's there, but I do think they've trimmed him a bit

    Our Physical Fitness

    My biggest challenge with fitness (and DnD ... life in general, lol), is I'm not good with keeping notes and tracking my workouts. That and diet. That said, I have been keeping active. I went out to a free salsa dance in the park, bike at least 20km twice a week, and hit the gym for weights...

    Spoilers Doctor Who 2024 (spoilers)

    I assumed there was a ticking clock. The device had been overloaded to 6 times its designed capacity and could only function once, certainly Rogue and The Doctor acted like they couldn't just leave the Chuldur there. Turn it off and engage 5 aliens with electro-death touch in melee sounds like a...

    Dragon Age 4 - now The Veilguard

    Hey! There are dozens of us! Dozens! It's not fair to DA:O though, I started with DA2, and found Inquisition to be fun, but too long and grindy.

    D&D (2024) Check Out The 2025 Monster Manual Alternate Cover!

    Put next to each other, I'm impressed with how they work as a set ... either the standard or alt covers. I actually see myself going either way (can't justify getting both).

    Dragon Age 4 - now The Veilguard

    Bioware got their lunch so thoroughly eaten by Larian and BG3 that there's no way DA4 can measure up. I'll watch the gameplay but it sounds like it'll be more on the action-y side of the equation. But then, my fav has always been DA2, or as I know it, the one where Hawke and a bunch of...

    D&D General lightning-themed environment?

    I like the idea of a giant circuit board. Capacitors and Resistors as large as a person and energy arcing around changing it as gates alter the current around the map.

    Spoilers Star Wars: The Acolyte [Spoilers]

    Well there's the matter of why Mae thinks she and the Jedi have "unfinished business", we might get a flashback to that. There's clearly something more to that childhood incident.

    Spoilers Star Wars: The Acolyte [Spoilers]

    TBH, I sort of assumed that was what was going to happen, when all the promotional material had that character in only one setting.

    Star Wars: The Acolyte starts June 4

    The fight choreography is really good

    D&D (2024) What is your favorite standard 2024 cover?

    I voted MM, but tbh, they look great together, there's a cohesion and yet distinctiveness.

    D&D 5E New Monster Manual Cover

    Initial impression ... this is my fav of the three. Really digging the back cover, just a wall of monsters staring right at you, but the action in the front is really nice too.

    Spoilers Doctor Who 2024 (spoilers)

    It's not like Lindy was incapable of walking, it's that she's not used to making the decisions of where/how to walk. The skill is there, the mental effort to steer and control had been left to the Dots.

    D&D (2024) What should WotC change with their new screen?

    I prefer a landscape screen because a portrait screen is too tall for me and really separates me from the players. I dislike setting myself that apart from the group. Also, I do not roll dice behind a screen in combat, so I'd find portrait too intrusive for me. Heck, there are times I find even...

    D&D (2024) Which section of the 2024 PHB will you check out first?

    I think I'll skip to the Druid and Sorcerer first (my fav core classes), then go back and read through the whole book.
