    There's no grind. Well, there's sort of a grind. They made it so that after you've run your 2 daily chaos dungeons you can keep running it, with like 1% drop rate for the normal shit, and you'll also get a new currency drop that you can buy shit from a vendor. It's really slow, but I guess it's...

    It's like around 10 seconds and I seriously doubt Amazon would change that. There's just no reason to, unless you just really want to annoy your players. I don't think there's a channel limit. There are channels on the ocean too and I've seen that # get pretty high. There's no retardation to...

    I doubt I'll be playing in NA. Pretty much the only reason I've played so much in RU is because there's no other MMO's to play in between the few single player games that come out each year that interest me. Trying out new classes is fun for a short while, and sometimes there are updates that...

    Fortunately, there's only one other quest like that, in Peyton. Unfortunately, you'll have to do it on every alt as well. The most annoying part is where you have to go into these cells and rescue 1 each of 6 children. Before you can leave each room, a guard dog appears at the door and slowly...

    Most mmos "chores" tend to be centered around combat, other than crafting/gathering. LA has quite a few that are just running around the world talking (spamming g) to npcs. Or your daily emoting/playing songs for affinity npcs, which is one of the lamest things I've ever seen in an mmo. The...

    While I'm sure his little hanger ons will follow him, I seriously doubt he'll stick with it very long. It's just not all that entertaining to watch, and a lot of the "content" is just chores. Also, more people means faster queues for group content and pvp, and a healthier economy. Should also...

    XCOM 2

    Don't use any limited abilities before the final room, waste turns before you teleport in to refresh any cooldowns. She won't spawn in til you get like halfway into the room, so clear the mobs that are there before you go that far. Try to kill her on her turn, or the first shot of one of your...

    Lost Ark Online

    As far as combat, it's actually pretty basic, but fun. Everything else is pretty tedious. The game has a shitload of systems and currencies, but they are introduced gradually for the most part, and most have a short tutorial quest attached. Other than that the game has a pretty extensive Codex...

    60 level cap doesn't mean too much, since you can't grind xp, you're only getting it from things that are daily/weekly limited, so it takes a while. Clearing the MSQ and finishing Punika will get you to like 52. Levels 50-55 are like 42ish million xp, and then it almost doubles past 55 to 70ish...

    Just pets and particle effects. Archeage lets you put everyone in generic blue/red armor, for better client performance.

    Yeah, I know. I previously posted a pic of my Demonic in one, and mentioned the color changing. :p And the way they totally clash with the art design of the world. I only posted the above with the over the top commentary because I thought it was funny, and also we were currently discussing...

    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...

    Lost Ark Online

    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.

    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...

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...

    Fringe

    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.

    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...

    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."

    No question. We've been over this. They have the same damn budget as the Witcher, there is no excuse for the poor quality.
