I always get static shocks really bad at the grocery store! I think it's the cart wheels making a Van Der Graff generator effect. I get a zap every time I touch a shelf! It would be nice to not have to deal with that.

Ladyhawke, Excalibur (this one is much more R rated than most, it features an on-screen rape in the first 5 minutes), Legend, Labyrinth, The Princess Bride, Krull, Conan.

The 80's were really a heyday for fantasy movies, weren't they?

This tree absolutely does not grow into this shape naturally. Look at the trees in the background. It's a lovely niwaki. The style is to shape the tree to mimic natural phenomena, which this does well, but it's been shaped with artistic intent. This long, arched style is common for framing doorways.

The game I've laughed the most while playing is Jackbox. Fibbage and Quiplash have me in stitches every time, although it depends on how funny your friends are.

Trading specifically I'm not sure if it changes anything, but you can buy things from NPCs that normally you can't trade with. I do know that stealing from NPCs and attacking before a cutscene plays out can change the survival of some NPCs.

I'm in Act 3 of Baldur's Gate 3 on my main run and keep proliferating new playthroughs instead of finishing the game.

For the fight in Grymforge you're talking about, there's also an opportunity to get some of the duergar on your side, which makes the fight a lot more manageable.

Also, the game never explains this, but you know the buttons in the bottom left of the screen during cutscenes? You can use these to trade with characters that don't normally have an option for it, to switch party members to sneak around while the one in conversation distracts an NPC, or to attack before a cutscene finishes playing out. Doing these things can affect the outcome of game events!

Ah yes, a new picture every MSHA refresher. No visibility on a haul truck when you have to climb a staircase to get into the cab.

I bought ARK because dinosaurs. That is the only thing it has going for it. The core gameplay loop is watching a progress bar fill up.
