The Only Eric

@StarfieldGame Too busy in the guts of ship design. I wish the Drake cockpit had a Captain's Ready room in the bustle at the back instead of that empty space.

Remember to take in the views 🌌 Where are you exploring this weekend? Photos by u/-BillCarson-

@OverclockersUK Starfield

What are you playing this weekend? 🎮🧐

@IGN How about both. It's not an either/or game.

We take a closer look at upcoming Mass Effect-likes The Expanse: Osiris Reborn and Exodus to work out which one could be the true heir to BioWare's beloved sci-fi epic. bit.ly/4dhcZJt

@TH3MAF1A @shinobi602 Patch released yesterday

@shinobi602 Dam I guess green fall 2 is not getting fixed

Game studio Spiders (Greedfall, Steel Rising) is shutting down ➡️ origami.ng/spiders-greedf…

@Hadesr66 Jemison is nice, pretty secure and close to the shops.

Looking to build a 'Home' outpost in #Starfield.. Planet needs to be breathable, forested, rivers ( optional ), resources don't matter.. Checked the usual suspects, Cassiopeia, Leviathan, Cados, Nemeria etc etc.. Any out of the way planets I might have missed ?

@ObsidianDew @WeAreMassEffect MEA Fixpack, Shut Up SAM, Then Guns/Powers balance mods to your preference. And cosmetic mods, there's loads of cosmetic mods. I like giving Cora black hair with the aptly titled Cora Black mod.

@theonlyeric99 @WeAreMassEffect Got mods you'd recommend?

Tom Taylorson, the voice of Scott Ryder, on the abrupt end of Mass Effect: Andromeda’s story: “We thought we’d have a decade with these characters… and then it was gone.” Read more in our exclusive interview on our website. #MassEffect

@StarfieldGame She got the wrong ship. The abomination has much better parts. Strip it down and build it back up again as something awesome.

Who knew solving blockers in the boardroom would net you a top-of-the-line ship?

@ATRightMovies Brilliantly written and performed character. The most human person in the whole film is the hologram. Just excellent.

Denis Villeneuve had Ana de Armas on set for for all her BLADE RUNNER 2049 scenes, then added her holographic look in post. Who knows, in a few years every home might have their own Joi.

@mrhulthen As long as they are both good I'm on both teams. This isn't an either/or situation.

Loving that we're seeing two fanbases forming right now, Team Exodus vs Team Expanse. My comment sections is filled with "Exodus is better" and "Expanse is better, actually" and i chuckle every time i see it. Competition & friendly rivalry is a good thing :)

@nuhre_ No game can expect to be ME1 good. I'll take normal good over failed due to too many features. Internet outrage about it not being perfectly aligned with every individuals personal tastes can jump off a cliff.

Mass Effect 5 is in a really tough spot right now. A few years ago, there was nothing quite like Mass Effect on the market. Now you’ve got Exodus stepping in, and The Expanse continuing to prove there’s a strong appetite for grounded, character-driven sci-fi. So Mass Effect isn’t coming back into an empty field anymore. It now has to convince people it’s worth their time again, after Mass Effect: Andromeda already burned a lot of that goodwill. It can’t just be “good.” It has to be really good. Because for the first time, fans have actual alternatives that promise the same kind of experience. And if BioWare fumbles this again, people aren’t going to wait around anymore.

@tct_adventures Lots of Rogues because you haven't given us Ranger yet!

@Cromwelp Great film. also goes well with a Greedfall playthrough.

Buy the UHD version of Brotherhood of the Wolf and be a happy camper

@reenotfound Read the first two, see how you feel. Deadhouse Gates is probably the best of the series so if you aren't convinced after that you can just leave them be, And whilst there is a common theme and history running through them, there isn't one single story narrative.

Has anyone read The malazan empire by Steven Erikson??? A friend recommend them to me. But I am STRUGGLING to want to read. Maybe it’s because I know I have 10+ books to read?

@RollsRoycePress SMR's were supposed to be easy to set up. why are these taking so long. You ought to be rolling them out this year, for installation also this year. Good that you have the contract, but the delays are really disappointing.

Rolls-Royce welcomes landmark contract with UK Government for delivery of Small Modular Reactors bit.ly/47QIY08

@BBCNews The promise of SMR's was that they would come out of the factory and require little work to get set up and working. What's this mid-2030's bullshit? Consultants making millions to produce irrelevant 'studies' and 'reports' no doubt.

Work begins on nuclear power station that promises 8,000 jobs bbc.in/4mu00Ht

@SketchesbyBoze One episode left to watch and though I'm enjoying it, it is no match for the Depardieu version.

The new eight-part Count of Monte Cristo on PBS is the best of the many screen versions of that novel. Sam Claflin convincingly embodies both the downtrodden Dantes and the vengeful Count. The extended runtime does ample justice to the many wheels of the story. Watch it!

@jlrizzoii @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt It's true, I can and probably will. It'll be a pain at times though.

@theonlyeric99 @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt You can still sideload new books. So the support doesn't have to do with it being a reader.

Everyone who reads. Yes, the book publishing industry is fucked up. They don't produce inexpensive stuff. Newsflash. The cost of printing has gone way up. The cost of binding way up. You can't get a $3.99 book anymore. Shit happens. That is why technology came to the rescue with @AmazonKindle and other e-readers. "Oh I like dead tree" Yeah, ok so do I. But shit happens. I want $0.99 gas too, but that won't happen either. Deal with it. And stop pirating books, be a human and go to the fucking library if you want one free. Don't post my shit online.

@jlrizzoii @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt Enlighten me then. Because Amazon aren't explaining it.

@theonlyeric99 @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt You're right, but the support means something pretty specific and important that you probably haven't thought through.

@jlrizzoii @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt Because they don't want to support old devices any more. And I get that, supporting old devices is a pain. Not allowing downloads of books I've bought, through my own network connection is unexplained.

@theonlyeric99 @Advocacy_tech @TimothyImholt That is what is happening. Why do you think that they're doing this?
