    Lol. Coming in the January RU update, for all those people who want their characters in a fantasy game to dress like normal people IRL. Including, for a limited time, this one of a kind, beige, soyboy knit sweater. Get em while supplies last!! Wardrobe A Wardrobe section has been added to the...

    Some of those reasons might be why the classes were gender locked in Lineage 1, and maybe a couple other earlier Korean mmos. But, I think at this point it's just a combination of "that's just how they (Koreans) do it" and the fact that they prefer looking at tall hot Western women in revealing...

    So true. I googled it back when I saw The Machinist. He did some crazy "one apple a day" diet for months. Fucking crazy.

    To be fair, like 1/3rd of Christian Bale was The Machinist.

    Lord of the Rings Online

    They've done a couple passes on the combat. It's quite a bit better than it was at launch. Most notably for me with the Hunter class, which is way better. Still annoyed by the spilling silverware drawer sound effect on a Burglar ability that gets used a lot. But, overall, combat is improved...

    From the wiki: Julia Collins (born November 10, 1982) is an American game show contestant and a supply chain professional from Wilmette, Illinois. She is best known for being a 20-day champion on the quiz show Jeopardy! with the most consecutive wins of a female contestant until Amy Schneider...

    I re-binged this for like the fourth time a couple months ago. Great cast all around, but Walter Bishop IMO is one of best written and acted characters of all time. Torv is definitely a hottie, but my fave scene with her will always be when she's channeling Nimoy when Bell is in her head.

    Dexter: New Blood

    So funny, this kind of "after the fact" remorse. Like, back in season 1 it didn't once occur to him that showing people how to murder someone and not get caught might not be a good idea? lol? Which is kinda whatever anyway. Murderers gonna murder.

    MMORPG vs RPG?

    Wow. It's like someone made an AI using nothing but all the posts on here with the word "Everquest" in them. But, it failed to compile.

    Dexter: New Blood

    The only reason this miniseries was made is because some fuckwit has been screaming themselves to sleep every night for years because Dexter got away with it. So much contrived, lazy writing just so Dex would get what he "deserved." Fucking fanfic. That doesn't even sound right. What's the...

    Lost Ark Online

    Yeah, and for the original line-up that's fine. But, when they specifically say they are addressing the gender lock complaints and then make female versions of male classes, while also releasing new female classes, it's just hilarious. When I read about the update and got to the female berserker...

    Lost Ark Online

    The best part about gender locked classes is the genius way they are handling undoing it. They make Striker, ok, cool. Then it's Gunslinger (female), release Sorceress (female) now upcoming (female) Berserker, and Painter (female). Because, ya know, it's all those girl gamers who were...

    Well, I'm just going off the RC costs that were in the beta weekend, compared to RU. And, we don't know yet the cash price of RC Amazon will be charging. But, stuff like 300 RC in RU for an extra char slot vs 900 for NA. Even best case scenario, it's double in USD. I haven't logged in lately...

    By making the starter gear less revealing, adding some diversity coloring/hairstyles and tripling prices of cash shop items. Already done.

    Lost Ark Online

    No reason to decide immediately at launch. You're going to want at least 2 alts for dailies and shit, so take your top 3 picks from what's available, level them all to 50, get your first set of upgradable gear from Chaos dungeon, and upgrade that to +6 (100% upgrade chance up to that point) then...

    Hard to tell where to respond and correct you, since you correct yourself. Were you drunk when you wrote this? I specifically state that ONLY pvp and raids are not faceroll easy. And by faceroll, I mean that literally the only way you can die is if you go afk, or your mouse/kb stops working. I...

    Lost Ark Online

    Your class hardly matters outside of arena PVP. All content outside of that, and the endgame raids (most of which we won't have at launch) the game is faceroll easy. Like, if you have a Naga or similar mouse you can play the game one handed, while watching tv, and balancing your checkbook. Just...

    I haven't checked myself, but from what I've heard, the fake Tamyrlin says "saidin" when she's speaking in the Old Tongue, but the English text caption doesn't. But, yeah, other than that, no mention. Edit: rewatched it, translated to "your Power."

    That's not what I said. I said nothing about the rewards and I specifically said that the non-raid content offers zero challenge. Like, it's actually a chore, because there's no stakes and no chance of failure. One of the main problems with leveling to 50. It's like playing a game with god-mode...

    On my main account my Scout is GS 1417, and I have 7 chars that are 1325 to 1340 GS, and my gunslinger that is like level 35. Getting from 1340 to 1415 is hella expensive (another issue, but I digress :P) and 1340 is the minimum to enter the most recent continent, South Bern. The current catchup...

    Like I've said, I barely play it. I put in minimal effort to earn gold, and level up a new class if I like it. I'm leveling a gunslinger, like 5 levels a week, and I used a free boost on Sorc. And I'm always watching a tv show/movie on my second monitor, because outside of raids, nothing really...

    The core of the problem with the raid design is (other than plain laziness) the lack of options. The combat in LA, while fun, visceral and pretty, is rather simplistic. You have (usually) your 8 abilities, your ult, your special and your dash. So, combat consists of using your attack abilities...

    Kinda funny when you think about it. Since both the first Western (UO) and Korean (Lineage) MMOs were isometric. (To the peanut gallery: No, I don't want to argue about multiplayer rpgs that released earlier. Thanks, though.) Edit: @Brahma There's a free Trision Pass (boost) reward for the...

    Imagine if in GoT the Starks had been black. Would it have been as popular? Hell, if it released now not only would they have been black, but the Lannisters would have been middle-eastern and the Targaryens mexican.

    Clicking is not necessary, you should be holding LMB. You move/attack in the direction of your cursor. And if you're trying to avoid a boss ability you usually aren't just running, you are using dash or an ability with movement.

    Except, when someone else fucks up 1 thing it wipes the whole group/raid. It gets really irritating doing those 20 steps perfectly and wiping a dozen times because of someone else, and then finally everyone gets it right and you fuck it up this time, because you're bored and irritated and you...

    I said "that wasn't the premise" not "that isn't." And the raids you're so in love with are the tiniest part of the changes they made to the game in the big Season 2 update. The vast majority of changes had to do with streamlining, accessibility, QoL, removing grinds, and dropping those dumb...

    Well, it varies depending on the game/activity, but what I consider skill doesn't involve just being able to jump through numbered hoops. I can read and execute the instructions on a box of mac and cheese perfectly, that doesn't mean I'm a skilled chef. For me, skill is more about knowing your...

    That wasn't the premise of the fucking game, you silly dimwit. I already told you I've played the game for 2 years, over several iterations. They've made HUGE, SWEEPING changes to the game several times, the most notable being the Season 2 update. The raids don't require skill, they require...

    It actually gets worse. Sounds like you're talking mostly about Guardian raids. The no tells/no hp bar/super fast attacks (with high ping you have to learn their moves and kinda dodge preemptively). Those do get worse, and the last boss of each tier will start having one shot abilities and...
