    Nah it’s actually decent.

    Then again I didn’t get the cowboy bebop hate either. It was okay? Like not OMFG THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW OF ALL TIME, but it wasn’t as shit as people claim it was. I fairly enjoyed the show, even after rewatching the anime right before.

    One Piece actually captures the flow and the mood of the anime. It is over the top, like the anime, but realistically toned down so it doesn’t seem like it’s trying too hard. The pace is good and the changes to the story seem coherent to adapting as an live action and for people who have heard of One Piece but never really got into it. The dialogues aren’t literate master pieces but they really do not need to be. The special effects sometimes look a bit weird but they didn’t bother me too much.





  • Game itself is a ton of fun. If you and your friends just want to learn the game you can just print out the cards, no problem. Or if you want realTM cards you can get a starter kit with 2*60 card decks for about 10-15$ from your local game store. (Or amazon if you are in a remote area with no Game Stores.) They are not the best decks, but they are balanced to each other and the cards are simple enough for new players to navigate.

    Better Magic Cards do mostly 2 or 3 things at once and can combo with others or are just great by themselves. Not that worse Magic Cards can’t combo or anything, they just need more setup or can be a bit niche in their usefulness.














  • Skyrim can almost be modded like Skyrim SE, so that’s a huge plus. There are also VR specific mods that give you a more natural VR feel, like HIGGS (Haptic Overhaul), VRIK (giving you a body) and PLANCK (gives you the ability to interact more freely and directly with your environment) This definitely gives Skyrim the VR feel that it needs.

    Having something like VR Weapon Throw also gives you a lot more options to play the game, adding thrown weapons and semi-medieval firearms. They don’t make a lot of sense canonically, but the added gameplay value is tremendous.

    Another Idea is to add a couple of “Survival Mode” mods, to make it truly immersive. Speaking of Immersion, you definitely should install as much graphical overhauls as your PC can handle, especially for NPCs and Items. You can handle muddy textures in the forest, but it’s not pleasant to speak to a muddy textured face. Or looking at a sword that’s just a blob of grey and shiny.
