    I've never seen all of the original Anime, but they split fairly early on in Brotherhood's runtime and after that it's an entirely different story.

    I've watched many people stream first playthroughs of sekiro, and the one thing I've noticed is that the people who try to play the game like it's Dark Souls the whole way through, and don't try to master the mechanics of the game all give up at the final boss. If throughout the game you are learning what it's trying to teach you, then the final boss is certainly doable, but it challenges you on all fronts requiring you to not have cheesed earlier content.

    This looks way better than the teaser trailer. Better than I ever thought a live action adaptation could be. I still think trying to adapt One Piece to live action is a losing proposition though.

    Surely it's widely accepted that chess players now are the best there's ever been? With the amount of information and engine analysis available I can't imagine previous greats getting the better...

    I think the Pre Sequel actually had the best gameplay IMO. It had some of my favorite classes and I loved the addition of all the different types of laser weapons. It's a shame they only made 1 DLC.

    Did you wipe your history after subreddits started to go private? If a subreddit that you've posted/commented in goes private and you aren't an approved user your interactions in that subreddit...

    Did you wipe your history after subreddits started to go private? If a subreddit that you've posted/commented in goes private and you aren't an approved user your interactions in that subreddit will not appear in your history and you can't delete them. Is it possible you had posts/comments in private subs and after they unprivated you started seeing them again?

    I'm not into traditional watches, however I am interested in the evolution of smart watches. In undergrad at UIUC we were gifted Pebble watches and I really enjoyed it. It used an e-paper design and had a long battery life. I've tried a few of the newer android watches over the years, (Asus Zenwatch 2 and Fossil 5), and while I like the additional features, it feels like the decreased battery life of the more traditional display makes them a hassle to use.
