  • Not really. That's the reason for the new season is that everyone starts with a clean slate. A new character at this time won't help anything if you've already done statues, unlocked the main city waypoints, and renown to the third tier in each area.

    Now season 2 was my first time getting to 100 and attempt to clear the season challenges. And my advice there since I won't complete it: do NOT skimp on leveling up your glyphs. I did everything else but I lost my momentum at the end because it became daunting.

  • Save thousands
  • Plan WAY ahead and donate your body to science. Family isn't stuck with a bill to the vultures. Cremation even costs way too much to pay people that prey on grieving family for something that is inevitable. And science benefits from your donation. Ultimate win.

  • If you're gonna have the discussion, then discuss. Don't ask stupid fucking questions in a community that I've tried to recreate from Reddit. I'm not trying to be political or be obtuse. I want to find out why a company has bought one of the most iconic IPs of our life and ran it into the ground.

    I like Thor Skywalker and he does his best to explain logically how I feel on these matters. If you don't like that and don't wish to discuss on it more, kindly keep walking.

    What does everyone else think? Do the true numbers tell the whole truth or is it still biased?

  • I was just going to say Dune is a definite exception unless they screw it up after the previous lay-up. But that's where we are in society. It's sad my knee-jerk reaction to new content is cynicism. It used to be hype all the way.

  • Is anyone reading this?

    I created this place hoping more would be involved. It was during the Lemmy rush and people said "if you can't find a community, then make it". I posted a discussion I had with a friend but it was not a favorable topic.

    I guess this is a test to see if anyone really cares about this sort of topic. If not, I have no problem packing it up. It's been about a month since it's creation and only one other person made a topic out of four now.

    If anyone has any ideas what to do differently, that would also be great.

    Browsing Communities

    Perhaps I'm a little slow, blind, ignorant, or any combination. I like to go to different instances and browse the communities in each to see if I can broaden my interests without having to be specific. The only way I've been able to do this is having to go through the browser because I have zero clue how to do it in the app. I can get to the trending, but those are generally empty with no description. Any help or guidance on this would be great.

    Discussion with a friend

    I had this brief conversation with a friend who likes to play Devil's Advocate on a lot of our discussions. I don't feel like he's a true fan of the series since he generally likes everything spewed out of Hollywood in a certain way. So I look at him as being the basis of a general audience member going into new movies and not having any preconceptions. We get into arguments a lot while I'm trying to share my frustrations on how poor something is (current Star Wars) and not having the right words to convey why it's bad.

    One of the most damning things for me of this series is having Luke, who was the epitome of righteous heroism at the time, who faced off the evil Emperor and his own father alone, turn around in his old age and want to MURDER his nephew over a bad vision or dream he was having.

    There were two things he said to me that made me flabbergasted. First, he asked how do we know that was the true vision? There was one where he only stood over him but the other was told by Kylo where it showed he ignited his saber. Okay, I can't refute that because it doesn't actually specifically state which one was the actual scene. It's only implied that the one he ignited his saber was real because it was the latter telling.

    But then this second one blew me away even more and actually made me rethink my friendship. (In a humorous but sad way). He said instead of Luke being brave, he was a coward bitch that ran off without his friends to face his daddy issues and to die like a bitch since he throws his lightsaber away.

    I COMPLETELY disagree with that last statement he made but I couldn't bring myself to argue because as a famous quote once said, "Never argue with a dumb person because they will bring you to their level and beat you with experience." Which is really sad as I've respected his insight on many things but I can't fathom this way of thinking. Is it a form a cynicism on both of our parts since we're older?

    Anyway, we both just stopped and continued to play Diablo 4 in peace the rest of the night. Haha

    When the light faded for me.

    I'll share when it finally hit me that Star Wars was practically dead. We got to see The Last Jedi during work. Even got paid to go see it. But for our big company, it was a shit show from the beginning. The theater wasn't ready for us and everyone wanted to get concessions before. This ended up too long and most of us missed the beginning scroll and lame momma joke. When some of us finally got in, there were already coworkers and their families in our seats. So it was awkward from the get go that we had to move them out. When we got situated, it was at the part when Rose's sister was about to die. I honestly almost thought we were in the wrong theater watching the wrong movie.

    Watched it all and I was appalled. But my stubborn ass decided maybe I missed something in the first part that was crucial to why this was so bad. That mother fucker Rian Johnson convinced me to watch his lame ass movie twice. I never spent money on another Star Wars movie or show again.
