I feel that. I've been tempted to get silicone trays that you can wash and reuse but I dunno how they affect the cooking.

I quite like that her romance story is an inversion of the typical typical Mass Effect, sex is the prize, type story. She'll jump you with little effort. you get closer and she wants to fight you, but the real pay off is when she let's her guard down and allows herself to be tender and be loved. It's quite lovely.

That's just the campaign. They'll slap an 8/10 on the multiplayer and call it a day. It'll sell gang busters again, then when they do the same thing again next year, no-one will bat an eye.

Well, it's certainly more interesting than the offerings in the ones near me

It's pretty great so far. It's easily the most polished non-FromSoft souls like I've played. The weapon system is a lot of fun to muck around with and try new movesets, and it's fairly free with the upgrade materials, so you can try many different weapons. It definitely takes some getting used to, and it starts off feeling more punishing than some of its peers. But the game really wants you to mix Perfect guards and dodges, not just rely on one. Once that clicks it feels really nice to play

Very similar here. I'm also a druid and was partying with Karlach (barb/fighter), Astarion (rogue/ranger), and Gale (evocation). But i switched out Gale for Shadowheart (light cleric) at the same point as you and haven't looked back. Having Wyll would've been better as I had noone with decent Charisma.

I really should respec out of Moon druid to land or something because its been incredibly disappointing and without Shadowheart I was just playing support and CC, but I just want to wild shape dammit!

She starts off pretty acerbic with a clear bias toward Data, but they were definitely going for a character arc with her and she started having some character growth as the season went on. She later encourages and supports Data when he's having a mini crisis about losing at stratagema, and she takes an innoculant so she can drink the poisonous tea Worf offers her. Then they brought back Bev and we never got to see it really pay off. Then for ages Crusher is barely anything more than set dressing and a 'will they won't they' relationship for Picard. I always thought Pulaski was a more interesting character than Crusher and the show would have been better for keeping her.

This has blown my mind. Dark Place referenced in Trek!? I know it's gained some cult following but it still feels like an largely unknown and underappreciated time-capsule of comedy. I genuinely didn't realise anyone 'across the pond' had come across it.

I enjoyed the demo but I do hope they tweaked a few things. I hear they made the dodge more viable which should make it a much smoother experience

Yes. Same thing, different name!

True, but from a storytelling perspective, it doesn't make sense to me to bring him back without explanation just to kill him off the next episode. Its jarring

That's good to hear. I absolutely loved Time but didn't enjoy Ruin anywhere near as much, so I didn't read Memory. Might have to get on that
