    Falling out of love with gaming

    Have you ever been in love? Like butterflies, I cant stop thinking about her, get stupid kind of love? Then something happens(likely result of you being stupid) and you break up - probably badly. You then go through the next several relationships without that original feeling. You are not...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I backed. Will be interesting to see if this goes anywhere near as far as it has potential to.

    Defiance

    I see it much more as "Eureka with aliens". Ex-military cop, with a daughter, new to the town, saves the town over and over....

    Defiance

    Watched it on Scyfi.com tonight - they have the entire pilot without commercials free to watch. I'm curious how the game and show start tying together more. I already blew through all the story missions so I'm hoping the episodes add content at a regular pace. Seems they are set up to...

    Defiance

    Picked it up based on this thread and Force's videos. Did you enjoy Borderlands? How about Rift? Odds are you'll like Defiance as its pretty much a mash-up. Borderlands has better vehicle control, gameplay, voice acting, and character development imo but its not an MMO. Defiance hasnt...

    SimCity

    https://help.ea.com/article/why-cant...ect-to-simcity I especially like how they downplay the scope of the problems.

    SimCity

    Just came to say, this thread delivers. Despite some of the obvious bugs and rampant issues well deserved by EA....It is entertaining to watch people trying to "beat the simulation" by spamming bus stops and playing tron with roads and expecting to win. Not claiming to have it all figured...

    Path of Exile

    I enjoy watching Kripp theorycraft. He can be a little narrow in his thinking (always going for certain paths/talents) but he does get creative at times when he pulls out the spreadsheets. Anyone catch the new build he is going for? Looks like something a bit new (not wand).

    Path of Exile

    Also having some fun with this. Even with the instability I like it much more than a year ago when I played. Currently a lvl 36 witch near the end of act 3. I scored my first unique, an axe. I like the true uniqueness and power of these items, they inspire builds all by themselves.

    Well, now what?

    Knowledge is power. EQ provided this scenario. The lower margin of error, the death penalty, where to best farm XP, gear that mattered - all required knowledge in order to succeed at the game. Modern MMO's (with a few notable exceptions) work against this fundamental concept. They want...

    Path of Exile

    Mind linking this build? Been looking for something like this.

    EQ Never

    I somewhat disagree with this. It might not be "difficult" once you knew: A. What loot was worth going after B. What mob dropped what you needed C. Where the mob spawned D. How to get to the mob E. How to pull the mob correctly (sometimes very challenging solo or duo) F. Were capable of...

    EQ Never

    While a fan of PS2, there are elements to this comment that have me concerned. How does PS2 address problems mentioned above? My fear is that this is headed towards an even more anemic item game with focus on fleeting cosmetic/status rewards. I'm looking for a game that can give me what...

    Well, now what?

    I think Path of Exile took an interesting approach toward currency. No gold. http://en.pathofexilewiki.com/wiki/Currency

    My LA with auto-shotgun and extended mags will rip through NC maxes. I've taken out three in one run.

    I have two mines now with just one cert? What changed? Also, is C4 any fun?

    Planetside 2

    Exactly my first experience. Think of it like eve-online except you start in null sec space and you dont lose your shit. Once you have an idea of what you are doing and how to join a squad, flank, etc....you'll be on the giving end of the pain.

    Planetside 2

    I had to look 3 times through the electronics area to find it hidden behind some other cards. They were not in the same area as the playstation/Xbox/Nintendo cards either. They were up high in the back corner of the department. I ended up showing a picture online to someone that worked there...

    Planetside 2

    Get a better sniper rifle if you plan to use the infiltrator at all. Other than that just stick with default guns. I also recommend upgrading your favorite vehicles weapon. The defaults are piss poor by comparison. Also dont forget to buy the 1 cert point stuff. Certainly worth it.

    On Jaeger (vanu) as well. Accept my friend request xzi. Started a list of things I like/dislike compared to PS1 + 'Q' to spot enemies and place them on the mini-map (awesome idea) + Ability to pilot everything as a new player + Cert point system is more interesting and varied + No more...

    Well, now what?

    In its prime - EQ had an addiction level that was unmatched. No other game has been able to reach this status in my mind, not even close. Even EQ lost its original desire. This is for one very simple reason - Power. The elite few lvl 65 enchanters per server with KEI. The first dedicated...

    Planetside 2

    I lost interest immediately when I first started the game up and couldn't be bothered to log back in for a few weeks. Came back to give it another try and was glad I did. The more I play the better it gets. Having fun now and reminds me of some good times with original planetside before...

    Remakes: What would you like to see?

    Nostalgia time. Also loved the dragon warrior series.
