    Stranger Things

    The best part of season 5 is they FINALLY answer that nagging question: how the fuck did Ted bag Cara Buono? Well, his karmic balance finally righted itself in the form of demogorgon collateral. Otherwise, this season has failed to hold my attention. I'm noticing errors instead of being...

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Comparing PoE2 to Diablo 4 is unfair. And this is coming from someone who is still largely negative on PoE2 despite their improvements in 0.3(which are still coming at the cost of PoE1 based on 3.27's "content"). PoE1 is the better D2. But Khane is actually recommending the game in his...

    Last Epoch

    EHG sold themselves to Krafton. Partly because they made some really moronic promises(one-time initial purchase, no paid expansions), partly because they half assed the cosmetic monetization. I'm sure there are other factors, but I don't have access to their financials to get a complete...

    Path of Exile

    Have you found Elemental Hit chunking your computer? Hit many targets in one swing, the shader bar maxes out and the fps stutters for a split second.

    How consistent are you finding that scorched ground? How are generating endurance charges on boss fights?

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Bornu is a reader insert. He's like a well written ackchyually. Of course he's the best part of the book.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Azathanai and Elder God are not exclusive.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Why do you think the two are exclusive?

    Path of Exile

    Yep, I really want 20s charge duration, which undercuts the value of thread. Or you could use a shit chest like restless ward. Thoughts on using arkhons tools for scorch instead of boot slot? I want another slot that can roll suppress, but 35% reservation seems silly.

    Path of Exile

    Expedition's End was initially for chill and consistent freeze when I was playing non-crit Frostbreath. With Paradoxica and crit, the freeze duration can get pretty stupid, so perhaps not needed. It is nice to consistently freeze and shatter everything on the first hit, no matter what. I had...

    Path of Exile

    That's on my list things to fix for next league. I was disappointed with this skill as a league starter. It wasn't until I slotted in Paradoxica and crit scaling did the dps really take off. Think of it this way, EE will ruin multistrike's damage repeats, which are supposed to be the majority...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Worth contacting them about the local datacenter project? I like GamersNexus for their reviews, and their investigative pieces have been entertaining and good from an amateur level. But I have no idea how to judge their journalism from a professional standpoint. Also, I work in the tech...

    Path of Exile

    Been having a lot of fun loosely inspired by this guy: My primary intent is to showcase just how retarded melee strikes can get with proper investment. I'm currently playing with 3.9m weapon strike range(probably overkill), Sione's Ambition(extra strike targeting out to 4.9m) and an aoe...

    Yes, but also I would not be surprised.

    Actually, beasts are stored in a Python 2 dictionary, so every time you start up PoE, the hashing and order in which they get overwritten *could* change.
