    Xenonauts - Legit remake of the original XCom

    Xenonauts 2 was released from early access a few weeks ago. If you liked the first game, you should like this one. It's still a small indie game, which means it has some rough edges but all in all, a good Xcom-like (originals, not 2012). The main feature I would have liked is the ability to lay...

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    I am a bit unclear on names, but I think I explored "Blockburrow" a handful of time, if it's the Gnoll underground area fairly close to Ozgul. The groups I saw in the higher level deep parts looked like all of them had some form of CC. I think they were bards mostly, but I wasn't counting...

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    Was surprised chanter was lowest as well, but not sure how charm works out in this game, so maybe that's it. I started a druid this test but didn't get much time on it. I've played Shaman and Ranger to ~ level 10, but also Beast and War-Wiz to ~6; all of them felt pretty good. Melee shaman was...

    The Astronomy Thread

    5.2 is about as bright as Uranus, which is brighter than the predicted magnitude of 8.84. Don't see how it could cause any issue for Earth: https://theskylive.com/c2025r3-info

    The Video Thread

    Modern football is far worse. I'd rather watch an inning of dudes just standing around than 5 minutes of commercials, 1 minute of play, then 5 more minutes of commercials. Hell, I'd rather watch Women's soccer than commercials disguised as a sport, but most Olympic sports are also more...

    Pit bulls - The Breed of Peace

    Well placed censor boxes so shouldn't be any blood.

    The Astronomy Thread

    The math would be the least of my concerns since, for these calculations al least, it's pretty much solved and has been tested by every single space mission humans have ever launched, which is a lot. Also, it's not like only two or three people are doing the calculations, but 100s. They release...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Mainly due to the fact that some changes made for PvP reasons negatively affect the PvE game. For example, why did MnM just make players that were invisible still almost translucent when See Invis is up. It looks like a change for PvP so rogues and invis classes don't just have a worthless...

    Everquest Legends

    If it wasn't for catching an open test weekend on Evercraft/Adrullan, which gave some nostalgia for EQ, I would have never found out about THJ until the lawsuit either. The thread for it on this forum was hidden in a sub-forum I never really visited (because there be autistic dragons) and I...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    They haven't wiped the public test servers in years. No servers should be wiped until EA is released in June and it's possible they will move all the pre-EA characters to a test server. After EA, there is not supposed to be a wipe ever, but they may open new servers during different phases.
