    I also just started chapter 3. I said to myself as soon as I met him that I'd probably by Sun Jian ride or die for life, but I'm not liking everything I'm hearing during these council meetings.

    Also no one told me how steamy this game was...

     

    I was sort of the same way. I thought I was just gonna jump into Cao Cao's camp, largely because Dian Wei has always been my favorite character to play in the other DW games. But now. . .yeah, I might be leaning more toward Liu Bei's camp, too.

    I might still be able to be swayed, though.

  2. Progress on Dynasty Warriors: Origins continues.

    I'm into Chapter 3 and it looks like I'm about two battles away from the point of no return where you have to pick which of the three dynasties you end up fighting for.

    I know that at some point I can go back to an old save and play as all of the dynasties, but it will still probably take me a stupid amount of time to make a decision.

    I was trying to think of a comp for this and came up with the 2018 Rumble, which had Nakamura upset Roman in the final 2. Of course, Roman would go on to get the real main event anyway vs. Lesnar, while Nakamura challenged AJ underneath and lost.

    Was that when Nakamura's entire gimmick was "I'm gonna punch A.J. Styles in the balls every week?"

    BREAKING: The Dallas Mavericks are trading Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick, sources tell ESPN. Three-team deal that includes Utah.

    So if it's not a Woj bomb, is it a Sham wow?

    Yes, this is real. Sources tell ESPN:

    Full trade:

    - Lakers: Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber, Markieff Morris

    - Mavericks: Anthony Davis, Max Christie, 2029 LAL 1st

    - Jazz: Jalen Hood-Schifino, 2025 Clippers 2nd, 2025 Mavericks 2nd

  5. https://blog.bioware.com/2025/01/29/bioware-studio-update/

    Now that Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been released, a core team at BioWare is developing the next Mass Effect game under the leadership of veterans from the original trilogy, including Mike Gamble, Preston Watamaniuk, Derek Watts, Parrish Ley, and others.

    In keeping with our fierce commitment to innovating during the development and delivery of Mass Effect, we have challenged ourselves to think deeply about delivering the best experience to our fans. We are taking this opportunity between full development cycles to reimagine how we work at BioWare.

    Given this stage of development, we don’t require support from the full studio. We have incredible talent here at BioWare, and so we have worked diligently over the past few months to match many of our colleagues with other teams at EA that had open roles that were a strong fit.

    Yeah. . .not super sure if I like the sounds of that.

    Just waiting for BioWare to fuck this up, too.

  6. Got Dynasty Warriors: Origins yesterday, because I do love me some Dynasty Warriors and was hoping that the garbage that was 9 could be forgotten.

    So far, so good. Yuan Zo (getting to name your own character is a nice touch) blew through the first battle and it seems like DW is officially back.

  7. Thought we were in line for 6-8" of snow from the winter storm that went through the midwest last weekend. Stocked up on stuff, took Monday off from work, all that.

    Didn't even get enough snow to cover our grass. Not that I'm complaining, but it was a complete dud where we are.

    Oh don't kid yourself about the Raiders, it can always get much, much worse. 

    I'll guarantee you there's some tech bro sitting in an office right now trying to figure out how to con Mark Davis into hiring an AI head coach. 

     

    Hell, he could make an AI of his dad and hire AI Al.

  9. The Jets have requested permission from the Vikings to interview Brian Flores for their head coaching job.

    Not sure how that's going to go seeing that he's still actively suing the NFL and stuff.

    Also he can't interview this week because the Vikings have a game.

    The Jets have also asked for permission to interview Vikings QB coach Josh McCown.

  10. With the 2024 regular season over with, there are 18 teams already looking ahead to the 2025 NFL Draft. As in past years, here is the thread for this year's NFL Draft.

    When two or more teams have the same record, the tiebreaker is a team's Strength of Schedule, with the lower SoS receiving the higher pick.

    This is the first year in quite a while. . .I don't know the exact year. . .where all 32 teams currently have their first round pick before the draft. No teams have traded away their 2025 first rounder, and no teams have multiple first rounders as things stand right now.

    With that, here is the order that I will update as more spots get filled.

    1. Tennessee Titans (3-14, .522)
    2. Cleveland Browns (3-14, .536)
    3. New York Giants (3-14, .554)
    4. New England Patriots (4-13, .471)
    5. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-13, .478)
    6. Las Vegas Raiders (4-13, .540)
    7. New York Jets (5-12, .495)
    8. Carolina Panthers (5-12, .498)
    9. New Orleans Saints (5-12, .505)
    10. Chicago Bears (5-12, .554)
    11. San Francisco 49ers (6-11, .564)
    12. Dallas Cowboys (7-10, .522)
    13. Miami Dolphins (8-9, .419)
    14. Indianapolis Colts (8-9, .457)
    15. Atlanta Falcons (8-9, .519)
    16. Arizona Cardinals (8-9, .536)
    17. Cincinnati Bengals (9-8, .478)
    18. Seattle Seahawks (10-7, .498)
    19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (10-7, .502)
    20. Denver Broncos (10-7, .502)
    21. Pittsburgh Steelers (10-7, .502)
    22. Los Angeles Chargers (11-6, .467)
    23. Green Bay Packers (11-6, .533)
    24. Minnesota Vikings (14-3, .474)
    25. Houston Texans (10-7, .481)
    26. Los Angeles Rams (10-7, .505)
    27. Baltimore Ravens (12-5, .529)
    28. Detroit Lions (15-2, .516)
    29. Washington Commanders (12-5, .436)
    30. Buffalo Bills (13-4, .467)
    31. Kansas City Chiefs (15-2, .488)
    32. Philadelphia Eagles (14-3, .453)

    We'll get into Day 2 picks at some point closer to the Draft.
