So many hours spent in arcades. My grandfather would take me every Friday night to the mall as a kid, we would go the book store, then the "toy" store with a Tabletop RPG section and then 5/10 bucks in the arcade (he would let me roam and browse in the stores and meet me outside in the mall)...

Finally stopping exploring and focusing on leveling, I am so far behind everyone else, still at level 20 with my spellblade. I haven't been using Summons ashes because I thought there was a mechnical problem putting them in the pouch. When I was watch Dr Disrepect play he had no issues, so I...

Supposedly that's a DX12 thing? IIRC. This game, with its danger and mystery, its lack of handholding and its beckoning, addictive gameplay, is the first game in YEARS that gives me that Everquest vibe. Have I written that already? It still does. This feels like a massive best selling GOTY...

Yeah, I just thought I would have a look and then said, nah. I will wait until Intel Arc hits in Q2 and see what that does to prices. $1500 for a 6800xt? GFYs BB and Amazon. Amazon I get, because shitheels can sell anything for anything but BB selling the same card for the same price? I...

I, too, know a couple who experimented, although at the girl's behest. Guy accepted, what could go wrong? Found himself on the broken up with as the girl explored her Sapphic side for a few years. Turns out it was a phase and now she is married to a a guy for a decade plus.

It kind of sucks that I never tried any of the other Souls like games, because it will be hard to go back now from this amazing, Cyclopean, open world creation they have made here will make going back hard. Or maybe not but this game seems like a pinnacle. The map and music, the visuals: It's...

When you guys are saying "souls" in the context of this game, you mean "runes" correct? Quick addition: I played a few hours, started as a Vagabond, figuring I could move into whatever I liked, and I really regret not starting as a caster. Died a fair amount vaguely following a "Pick up all...

So I sat down to play and realized I only had the vaguest idea about the classes; I have been watching a ton of videos about the game and the lore. So I started watching videos about classes and stats... Fast forward 3 hours. Paralysis by analysis. I just watched a 45 min long video by a guy...

I preordered this for the PS5 but haven't had a chance to play it yet. Never played a Souls game before, so I know I will suck but reading this thread, between that and the lore it seems like a freaking Christmas present. So exciting!

I have had Naga whatever with 12 buttons for like 10+ years. WASD to move with abilities/skills on the numbers is just seemingly the default command scheme for everything and now this game is completely different. I have finally gotten used to it SORTA but will occasionally revert in combat...

That's because all Gunlancers secretly *want* to be in the AOE. It's their natural state; No matter how you try to direct them out of it, they keep trying to dive back in.

I don't say anything; I just see people come and go. I don't think I have ever seen anyone say anything in guild chat. For the first 25 levels I thought, "I wouldn't mind playing though this again on another character". For the last 12 or so, I thought "Fuck all these needy people and their...

I kinda stopped focused on the MSQ/Side quests today and spent a bunch of time figuring out my stronghold, life skills, and more RL sleeping. Also watching the Wokerbowl but listening to the Greatest hits of the 90's Halftime show from the other room now. At some point I plan on writing a post...

What population spike ever does?

On Gunlancer, when fight advice is, "just stay out of AEs" I know it has been live in other regions for years but I think this has been the best overall launch I can remember.

No worries, BDO came out close to that time frame, ish, in like 2015 in KR before coming to the West in 2016.

It just came out in late 2019 in Korea. I was thinking "2018 was 6 years ago? Holy shit this is strong cough medicine."

Leveling is so much faster when you just run/ride past most mobs. Not just trash packs in the open world but most trash mobs everywhere. I took my first death, from the Guardian in the Morai temple. I was trying to face tank him in Defensive mode and that shit was just not cutting it...

BTW, After all of my bitching, the launch turned out to be one of the best first days in recent memory. I am having trouble right now thinking of a better one. Even seeing long 7000+ queues on regulos in the NA CST evening prime time, my kids got in within 30 min of queuing up. I was on all...

I am leveling at a Zen pace. A) Play a Gunlancer, which is actually way better than I thought it would be. B) hardly ever be assed to ride the mount, horse or otherwise. C) fight lots of unnecessary packs of mobs D) Do all the quests after 14 hours I have Leveled the GL to 20 and another (an...

LET ME HELP YOU WITH THAT:

I'm in on Regulas, after a queue that started at 700 and went down in just a couple of min.

Add me to Unpack group, huzzah. It's going to be a snake swallowing a bowling ball all day, so get ready to find out where they've got infrastructure bottlenecks all up and down the line. The whole point of MS Azure/AWS virtualization was to be able to spin up enough temp hardware to handle...

It's bouncing back and forth from "Download Queued" to "0%" in the Steam Client, and connection timeout when I try to launch directly from the shortcut. Yeah, getting to play today is always a crapshoot, its "roll a d12, that's the number of hours before its going to minimally available...

Well, fuck. It just like normal feminist complaining to me. I didn't realize I was in a Babylon Bee headline.

You do realize the character in the "Male" armor is female, right? Samus is a woman.

holy fuck these assholes. DIAF you shit company. Edit: In case I am not being clear, I mean Reddit, AGS, and anyone associated with this. It's not an overreaction. We have seen some screwups in 20+ years of MMOs and this would be the biggest. Fake Edit: Of course it's an overreaction.

If that is your idea of "A+" and "gratuitous", <sad clown face>. I was going to say it's basic cable bullshit, but wasn't Spartacus on basic cable? Fake Edit: It was on STARZ, rather.

After spending the day watching Lost Ark content, I am really all over the place on the starting character. I normally alt out and nice to have a game that encourages that but this, wow. Normally I start with tanks but I thinking of doing something different here; I was thinking Berserker at...

Nothing Nintendo will ever be an actual "flop". They exist in their own space where they aren't competing without anyone but themselves. Wii U was the closest thing to they have had to a to a "flop" and that was just not meeting expectations and grumblings from the community. It sold, what...

Don't wait up for the nudity, it may be 90's actions (mostly, as someone said earlier, last action set piece is kinda weak, series seemed to be running out of budget/steam at that point) but it's 2020 nudity. Overall I really liked the show. I also liked the first Cruise movie but this guy...

That's the exchange between my wife and I after a certain number of days, looks and all. Now for a shark high five:

Yeah, so I bought one of the Founders Packs for this a long time ago when they went on sale, I need to see which one. Would like to follow along with you guys but I am in no way rushing this, as I just don't have time. We have a new person on the team for the first time in a year, which...

I was going say there was like a decade between this and Netscape but I forget sometimes I am now an old man who saw all this in real time. I it was 27 YEARS AGO that I was running around annoying everyone by saying "look, WWW.FORD.COM WWW.KODAK.COM WWW.PERSIANKITTY.COM" and 14.4ing my way to...
