    What are you playing?

    Pretty fun pirate city builder with vertical building. It's on gamepass.

    Everquest Legends

    Wait did someone just say you have to pay to unlock a diety? are you fucking kidding me. These grifters are going to start charging you by numbers of steps taken in game and you'll all tell us how much fun you're having and how spending $500 really isn't that bad because we're all middle age...

    Everquest Legends

    Unfortunately this. I don't understand how these devs took the marching orders of "profit off THJ's success" which was essentially just leaving the game alone and making you a god with "just" enough challenge to make it fun solo, and are actively disassembling everything that made it great...

    Everquest Legends

    I didn't mind shelling out $30 or $40 or whatever I paid on THJ for bags because it was a free server and I had played like 100 hours before I even did that, so I kind of wrote it off as payment for my enjoyment of the game. Where I thought they got greedy was the server wide buff system where...

    Path of Exile 2

    Yeah that's the problem for me though. I don't want to play a shitty game in order to play a fun one. Maybe I'm just ARPG'd out having played 0.4 and then a D4 season + expansion, but I couldn't make it past act 2 this time. It also seems to be hit or miss whether or not I'm going to enjoy...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    235 paragon once again is where my desire to play drives itself right off a cliff. Thought I'd get further because of the extra content but it's like clockwork.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I'm an idiot, never realized those sold for so much. Been disenchanting all and probably dont need to at this point.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Seems my bottleneck is gold this time around. Besides gold shrine nm dungeons , anyone have a good way to make gold?

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Infernal hordes are actually kinda fun but the rewards always seem to suck and the chaos waves are so unbalanced. I kinda enjoy building a nice combination of buffs and seeing how they start to stack by the end of it. Though all of these buffs (I forget what they're called) really mean next to...

    Is it fun solo or do you need friends that game?

    You could make alts 25 years ago

    Everquest Legends

    It doesn't matter what your definition of FUN is lol, these mongrel devs are ensuring that no form of it will exist beyond the relief of avoidance of more tedium by swiping your CC.

    Everquest Legends

    I have paid for 2 things in a cash shop for as long as I can remember and both of them were storage related and less than $75. Path of exile 2 storage and THJ bags. I'll happily spend this on something QoL related like that in a game if I get as much enjoyment out of it as I did with those 2...

    Path of Exile 2

    I hope you're wrong. I've done the campaign 5 or 6 times now and it's really the thing that keeps me from making alts or wanting to play every season. If the campaign was somehow tied into the end game in a way that made sense then eh.. maybe. But right now it's two separate games. One is...

    I was really fucking hoping for a campaign skip.

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    I got about 30 hours into it and enjoyed it but it definitely has room for improvement. If they keep developing it instead of taking the profits and running it could be one of the better games we've seen in a while. I'll just forget about it until it pops up on my radar again if it ever does...

    Subnautica

    Subnautica was one of the better games I've ever played and going into it blind really added to the experience. I had no idea how "deep" the game would ultimately be while I was building my first little base in the shallows area. I had to look up spoilers eventually because I hit roadblocks on...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Yeah I'm going to have to try some different ones out once I get to max level, right now I'm just doing the dread claw leveling build and it feels a bit clunky. May be skill issue. I just meant for the other classes, seems to be taking a while to get updated build guides for builds that were...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Curious to see how the end game is I'm feeling the same way about warlock. Unfortunately a lot of the guides are out of date with the overhaul of the skill system so we're stuck waiting for everything to be updated. And yeah I'm one of those guys who wants to play the S tier meta builds...

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    No I never found a blue precision musket until later on, the best stuff I had was AGI. Maybe just unlucky. I didn't realize the damage scaling was poor however and I was speccing pretty heavily into precision just assuming that it was working. Also the food you can craft .. I saw agi vit and...

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    Yeah I know you can respec but that DoT rapier was my crutch for enemies higher level than me (I suck at combat) so I would never not be using it. I could have just gotten unlucky too that I wasn't finding any ranged weapons that matched my spec. It was noticeable enough where I felt like...

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    I hope this is a game that the developers continue to work on and not bail with whatever windfall they got from the EA success. This game COULD be great but there's still some work to do. I probably would have went a bit further had D4 not come out, but what kinda made me throw in the towel...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Game still has the vram mem leak for me, can't believe this shit goes unfixed. Have to set graphics to low and then back to ultra every 5 or 6 times I zone otherwise my PC locks up for a good 5-10 minutes completely while it tries to force close d4 and free up the memory.

    Saros

    Returnal was one of my favorite games of all time. I guess because it was the first game I got on ps5 and had the 3d audio headset and the ps5 controller, both of which are top notch for console. Ill probably check this out if it gets decent reviews. Ps5 was definitely the last console I'll...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I don't think I could bring myself to buy a cosmetic even if it were like $5... $50 is wild. I put cash shops right up there with gambling apps. You might as well just consider them gofundme pages for billionaires.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    It's a decent game and I feel like I've gotten my money's worth out of it but yeah, only the normal box price and fuck cosmetics. I'm actually kind of happy Poe2 season is end of May, because that's basically enough time to play the d4 expansion with 1 or 2 chars and put it down again till the...

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    I have noticed you give them the debuff more often when using option 2, whatever the circle + cross over a sail means. I was assuming it is a speed debuff but I really have no idea and haven't found it to be any help, so I just go with option 1, big balls.

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    Having a fun time. Just finished the first biome. I think my biggest complaint is the inventory management so far. I wish your ship inventory was just accessible from whatever island or base you were at. Feels like I spend so much time grabbing what I think the "buyers" will buy, realizing I...

    Everquest Legends

    I'm sure every grind will be able to shortened with a good old swipe of the credit card somehow. The more I read I've gone from "hell yeah" to "I'll probably give it a look" to "I think I'll just watch the shit show by reading about it here".

    They will probably sell you "unlock" tokens for real life cash to change an item from NO DROP to tradeable.

    I'm having fun with it, but the problem with these tests is I make a bunch of different characters and barely scratch the early level stuff. I never get to the point where I need to rely on grouping and other players which is where I think both this and m&m are going to fall right off a cliff...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I only got to play sunday morning because I was traveling but I made a wood elf druid because I wanted to see the tree city. Yeah, not in love with the gangly wood elf race but once I got a robe, cloth turbine lookin thing, and my scythe I looked like a skinny jihadist necromancer and I was...

    Jesus christ man your obsessive opposition to the body type option is more obnoxious than their decision to include it in the first place, and I think the whole body type A/B thing is pretty stupid.

    Hallowed Oath

    They have the benefit of the doubt from me at least. Nostalgia could only take you so far. I would have had a fun time running around on daybreak's version of everquest for a few hours to visit some classic zones but then my interest would have faded because it's just not a fun version of the...

    Hallowed Oath

    Well if there was a debate as to whether people would have played their game without the Everquest nostalgia factor this should settle it.
