My nephew was talking my ear off about that sim

Ha! It's super great.

They made a fully functional RIO AI named Jester which is pretty groundbreaking. Just as groundbreaking is the ability to use the backseat in coop. and everything is as realistic and fully functional as possible.

it's super cool to tell your RIO to make the nav points to your bullseye, have him track targets and lock them up, and only have to worry about doing "that pilot shit" when things get hairy.

it's all so well done. and they're releasing a fully operational carrier soon with crew and elevators.

it's stupid how much detail they put in this thing.

sorry to double post, but as it turns out. the f14 is the most difficult of all the 'modern' fighters to fly.

you can RIP the wings off or get into a inescapable flat spin pretty easy if you're not careful.

but it has the ability to hit mach 2.5 and go vertical in fights like no other. it's beautiful and pulls no punches.

I've playing a mobile star wars turn based strategy game daily for a while. Game is called Hero's pretty fun game at least it's for me since I'm in a guild alliance that has about 300 members.

this is one of the in game raids that guild members attack, and there is 50 members per guild.

Just finished Chapter 6 of Red Dead. Holy cow, what an absolute masterpiece. Highlights (spoilers):

- "Unshaken" when you get back from Guarma
- Saying goodbye to Sister Calderon at the train station
- Giving John your hat
- Every time you see that buck in your vision
- "That's the Way It Is" riding back to camp the last time
- "I tried. In the end. I did."
- Sunrise

Is the epilogue that good too?

Epilogue was better imo,... Sister C was good and Unshaken was amazing,... but I thought the last couple of missions were underwhelming

It's "Galaxy of Heroes, " noob!
Who's your main team, Brick,? I've been playing about a year, so I'm a little behind a lot of players that have been playing for awhile, but I at least get my dailies in pretty much every day.

I cannot defeat the Botchling in TW3.

Perhaps I should have upgraded weapons? Or armor? I haven't done either. I'm not sure I have the funds, and not sure how to, and it still feels early in the game so I just haven't. If I wanted to, it's too late because I'm locked into this mission.

Read the bestiary on it, it’ll give tips/weaknesses,... I can’t remember as I believe I never fought it. I took the other option, saving it

Chapter 6 is the climax. Epilogue is the catharsis. Difficult to compare them, but I found it very satisfying.

Use your silver sword with Cursed Oil. For potions, pop Swallow, Thunderbolt and Tawny Owl right before the fight begins. For signs, keeping Quen up is always helpful. Once the Botchling hulks out, you can use Axii to force it to retract its spikes so you won't get hurt by hitting it. Otherwise just kill it with timely dodges and counter-attacks.

I may have missed something / done something wrong, but I didn't really like how the final mission of Chapter 6 progressed right into first mission of the Epilogue without the opportunity to quit/pause/save. I feel like they should have rolled credits and let you linger for a bit before you start back up "some years later" in a relatively mundane scenario.

You also lose a big chunk of Arthur's inventory at that point. Several challenges took me much longer than they should have to complete with John because I had to go recollect a bunch of stuff. But you can't really warn people about that without spoiling a major part of the game.

Which is weird, because we see Arthur hand John his satchel and shit while they're running from the Pinkertons in Ch. 6. I was very surprised when it fired back up as John and I was poor again.

You'll see why they opted to do that at the end of the Epilogue. I was more annoyed by the loss of herbs and other consumables. Never really needed money as John.

Guild I'm in has the handle Ewokin With Destiny
https://swgoh.gg/g/26375/ewokin-with-destiny/

Cool. Our guild is Lando's Colt 45's. Not quite where your guild is yet, but they're respectable. We're at 121 mil Galactic Power compared to your 166. Apparently most of us haven't done profiles on that site yet though, cause even though we're maxed at 50 players only 9 have synched their profiles...and I'm not one of them yet.

Now that I've finally passed my cpa exams I can get back to some gaming. Is fortnite really what these kids make it out to be or should I invest my time elsewhere

Didn't you just pass the CPA? Treat yo self. This late in the console generation, you should have one of everything.

Working up the courage to ask my wife if I can buy a Switch.

Tempted to upgrade to a PS4 Pro instead, though. I want that 4K resolution for when I buy RDR2.
