Run Silent, Run Deep (1958)

Is this version of the Green Lantern a big Electric Callboy fan?

First and foremost, I understand and share your skepticism, but I attribute it more to Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast being terrible stewards of the brand moreso than the game's genre. They've proven to be anti-consumer ghouls with nearly every decision they've made (many of which have needed to be walked back or apologized for in the wake of massive backlash) over the past couple of years. So, in light of that context, it's only natural to assume this game is being made to chase some "casual gamer" money, rather than passion for DnDs various settings or mechanics.

As a counterpoint to the above, however, turn based gameplay is an abstraction used to make running the game easier for DMs. In the "reality" of the game world, all of the actions taking place in a round occur roughly simultaneously within a 6 second window. While my meat-based brain can't handle adjudicating multiple dice rolls a second, my CPU absolutely can, and therefore you could, potentially, play a highly faithful version of DnD in a real time environment if the CPU is just rolling the dice in the background. In fact, this is basically what Real Time with Pause systems offer, such as the first couple Baldur's Gate games (or many other cRPGs which emulate those).

Furthermore, the Dark Alliance games (1 and 2, not the recent live service game which is emblematic of the exact sort of decisions by Hasbro et al which leads us both to be highly suspicious of this project) are a lot of fun despite only being tangentially related to DnD. Getting something of comparable quality (with minimal GAAS nonsense), would make me pleased as punch.

Sometimes, the humor is found in how unsubtle the methodology is. A carpet bombing approach, one might say.

Caveat: I don't play fighting games, but I come to EVO moment 37 every now and again for the frisson it provides me. From what I've gathered from folks who are in that community, this fest is even more impressive than you might realize, because he had to begin parrying that move before the screen effects begin. You can even see his character sort of twitching back and forth before the super pops, anticipating the directional inputs necessary to pull the parry off. So, not only is it practically frame-perfect reflexes and timing, but it's also an incredible display of metagame knowledge to guess that is what is coming.

Your final sentence provided me an audible guffaw.

Oh man, this looks entirely up my alley. I love the subgenre of B movie which is "WW2 with a supernatural twist". I blame seeing The Keep on TV at an impressionable age.

When you nut, but Bernoulli keep sucking...

And it's pretty good! I had fun with the time I put into it, though it did feel a little bloated in the same way their Pathfinder RPG did. I think it's a consequence of their Kickstarter success for these games, which just kept talking on more stretch goals.

The good news is there is a LOT of game present for those that enjoy it.

Not in Education, Employment, or Training. NEET.

They don't make Ballnostrillian mask, I worked with what I had access to.

Idk about that, I heard a fair number of folks who were less enthused with Eternal vs 2016. The general sentiment among those folks was that Eternal skewed too far into "combat puzzle" territory, where encounters felt like they had prescribed "solutions" that you needed to perform to succeed reliably. This iteration being less about resource management and high speed encounter flow seems to be a reaction to those critiques.

I'm never going to financially recover from this.

You're doing good work.

Charitably, how much of this movie is softcore porn, and how much of it is real movie?

Exploiting Morrowind's systems is a hobby unto itself. For years, the only copy I had access to was the Xbox release (not even the GOTY edition). Without the dev console, I had to discover other ways to bend the game to my will.

To this day, I have to resist the urge to steal the Limeware Platter from the customs office, not to mention sequence breaking by phasing through the barrel with Fargoth's ring in that building's courtyard. Since you hadn't technically completed the tutorial and been released from custody yet, you could zip around the whole island, stealing with impunity and assembling quite the nest egg for your playthrough.

I'd say the latter rationalization is more plausible than the former. From memory, the swampy bits are pretty well concentrated along the western edge of the island, before giving way to the relatively temperate zones around Caldera and Pelagiad. By contrast, the volcanic portions of the island cover at least half the landmass, and there's implemented ash storms with some frequency in those zones.

As far as headcanon goes though, I'm partial to thinking the fog represents aerosolized Cliff Racer droppings.

Pep and shrooms is such a good combo; I bet it was awesome!

Yeah, granted the article is quoting the plaintiffs' suit, so we're getting a pretty skewed interpretation, but both films ending with a scene in which the leads select the same Spice Girls album to listen to really does point towards plagiarism. With that being said, I don't know how anyone could think they'd get away with that blatant.
