No Nanophoenix for Ps4 this week. Watched a couple of shows, The Bureau and The Expanse season two's first two episodes. Just don't feel like running more bounties in Destiny. Attacked Ark instead.
So.. I just found out that Ark has a gator. Or rather the bigger Sacro gator has a smaller much assholier cousin, which I only ever had an issue with the...

New update for Ark v254.51 or something is up.. I haven't played since version 251.. or back in November. But I'm sure it has been much longer than that.
I launched in and found my little adobe hut in the valley in the middle of the Scorched Earth desert. I didn't even get that far into Scorched earth before getting back to Destiny's Rise of...

So has been a little bit since I watched the movie Arrival after seeing that tweet by Rachelle Lefevre.
Since then the most notable thing has been that Rachel Adams got snubbed (also Kimi no Na Wa) by the Oscars.
:/ So?
The director goes on record as saying he put the movie on her shoulders. Not a great idea because the role wasn't that...

So after revisiting Planetary Annihilation and seeing that it did indeed model planets, moons, and orbits.. I've been wondering... Can there be a game that models stars, asteroid fields, commentary fields, real distances, practical exploration, supernovae, and still have the regular base building stuff but just on massive scale to accommodate the real sizes of planets and stars. Like a Spore 2 from EA...

Rachelle LeFevre (Under The Dome) tweeted that she liked the movie Arrival.
So I watched it on my phone to find out IF it was actually good or not. I'm a dome fan because of her mostly but after watching the movie.. I don't know.. it is kind of silly.
Actually.. spoilers, the way the Science focused father reacted is probably how I would have...

The more I hear about Mass Effect the more I don't want to hear about Mass Effect and that's when I already didn't want to hear anything about Mass Effect.
:/
The original was announced in the heyday of Halo. Just when I left my innocence behind and started working as a game tester.. I spent the money I had to, to buy...

Edited and expanded a bit:
Why do people even like dumb 'video games' so much?
I mean the candy coated bullshit that has no meaning because every aspect of it is rounded and doughy and soft so that there's little actual thought provoking worth to them.
Spore could have been a much better evolution simulator except that the voices within Maxis that wanted the game...

Well.. ok.. the middle few episodes ramped it way up and the last couple closed it out.
Very good. Except wtf.
One scene I really liked was the tent burning up.. that was really hot :p
Also Armistice.. good god crazy is hot.
So.. having giving this mildly compelling shit show a chance.. Episode 4 is really good. Much less nonsense.. but it's still really Westworldy. Hopefully 5 and 6 are even stronger.
After the first episode it felt like the only 'guests' are the people in the audience who's minds won't allow them to just sit and watch.
The second episode seemed like it was putting both feet back on the ground and all the crazy noises were quieting down.. NOPE.
Just more mildly compelling nonsense with only a couple of really strong stories. There's just no...
