    Dawn of War 3

    Funny you say that, Retribution was the first one I didn't play all that much because they cut corners with copypasting one campaign for all races.

    Dawn of War 3

    Is this more DoW2 or DoW1? Those were fairly different games. I liked both but probably have my plate full right now as far as gaming goes.

    Fire Emblem Heroes

    The new seal slot has high potential, I'm curious how soon they go beyond simple +stat seals. Right now the game is still a 10 minutes twice a day thing, not enough regular things to do. They do improve regularly and I'm looking forward to the rumored game modes and hopefully more frequent GHBs...

    Hearthstone

    From reading this thread throughout the last year I'm pretty glad that all I do is play janky fun wild decks in the rank 12-20 range. From that point of view the game is entertaining for what it is.

    Hearthstone

    80 packs yielded golden Tyrantus (pack 21), The last Kaleidosaur (pack 26), Clutchmother Zavas (pack 31), Elise the Trailblazer (pack 57) and Jungle Giants (pack 79). Most of them wouldn't be something I craft but one legendary per 16 packs does not allow for complaints. Not about the...

    Hearthstone

    I'm curious about the ratio between 'fuck Wild dust everything' and 'keep all and play some wild'. Personally I only play standard if forced to by a quest, otherwise it's wild all the way. It has more cards we raged about a year or two ago, sure. But at least you see a bit less of the boring...

    I've been having issues since the patch before Legacy league. Crashed about twice per night too. I turned off multithreading and that fixed the crashes, but doesn't exactly help performance in general. The strangest part is that the hiccups do not seem related to hardware or internet restraints...

    I'm at the same point when it comes to the challenges. I like to use the totem poles in hideouts and would prefer to either stop at 24 or go for 36. Obviously 24 is a given, missing some vaal bosses and only being 88, easy shit. But I don't know if I want to commit up to another month for 36...

    I'm so glad this doesn't have 3050+ stuff, succession wars > clan invasion. Funny how most of those screenshots have the mechs in 'dead in 5 seconds' locations, but I probably just have MWO ptsd.

    For offense flasks I just hit 3 of them when lunging into a pack, they're full 1-2 seconds later and you are freeze/shock/bleed immune during it. Took me a while to get used to it after years of "healing pot is defense" conditioning. If there is a more difficult mob left standing you have full...

    Trading could use some attention for sure. I would go with some kind of vendor placement in hideouts. It still requires time from both players (they want that) but at least it's asynchronous. It would also kill price fixing since the placed vendor actually auto-sells the items instead of...

    Fire Emblem Heroes

    That's all very optimistic, I would definitely suggest rerolling until you get 1-2 decent 5*s. When I started a few weeks ago I rerolled about a dozen times and settled on an account with 2 heroes at 5*. I've kept up with all orb rewards since then and have pulled only 1 additional 5* for a...

    While the bold part is probably too big of a statement, I would not mind if the endgame slowed down a bit. Not to crawl, obviously. Just somewhat.

    Barrage with 4-5 jewels was awesome for clearing packs. Bowazon levels of fun just filling the screen with arrows. The jewel was changed with 2.6, I think it has a limit of 3 now. But that may still be sufficient.

    Path of Exile

    My tankiest build so far was a leapquake marauder, worked well enough for mapping but I never went into end-endgame stuff. If you want a ranger-archer, pathfinder is the toughest because of the flask uptime. Permanent defensive flasks make quite a difference.

    Path of Exile

    Going over the resist cap is pretty huge as far as mitigation goes. That + leeching back lets you deal with it if you are careful. For individual packs you just have to deal with it, maybe that means not killing something, You might also encounter some essence packs that are pretty much...

    @Caliane thanks for the write-up. I'm not new to the game but some details are still helpful. It also perfectly points out my situation. I just entered maps with a ES character that cannot go CI (reserving the life for auras) and chaos damage is wrecking my way-too-small life pool despite 75%...

    I usually buy the supporter packs. The points easily tide me over and allow for some impulse buying, and some of the effects/skins are nice (many are fucking ugly though, those capes...). Atlas of Worlds Minotaur armor for example. I'm not the biggest fan of the skins in the bigger packs, but...

    Would this league only last 3 months as usual or run until right before the expansion and a new league? The have not had a large gap between leagues for quite a while I think.

    Reddit is only good for wasting time with dumb memes or to pick up on news and dev posts - that's pretty much true on all gaming subreddits I ever looked at. Three hours until league and no idea what to play. I'm tempted to give SRS another go. I did start with that in essence but dropped it...

    Read somewhere that they are corrupted but do have some kind of vendor recipe (the latter confirmed by a challenge). And yea they need to be common as shit or this league will get lame real quick.

    I think the challenges are going to suck this time around. Sure you can target the random mash of required leaguestones by using the right combination, but while you do that you don't have any shot at the couple of other RNG-based challenges. because they need a different combination of...

    Because they are ignorant as fuck. They'll get around to many things WotC learned in the last 20 years, at a rate of one good idea per year. I mean, they're just now taking the same step MTG took with revised edition and remove cards from the base set. Took MTG like 6-9 months to figure that out...

    Deathwing, a big part of you getting stuck is that PoE for a newcomer IS harder then D3. It's not quite the easy-mode it seems to be when looking at streams that come from people that a thousand hours in the game. I absolutely wrecked my first two characters by level 35 and 50ish respectively...

    I hope they didn't add a low limit to the Volley Fire jewel, that's a fun build if you use 3+ of them.

    Coming from D3 means all movement skills here feel bad. Intentionally I guess, best you can do is minimize the delays/cast times until you hit your comfort zone. Or not use them and crank movement speed into ridiculous. Re: skill gems - Depending on which class can buy it early some people just...

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    I don't know if EQ subs were cut in half by early 2015, which kinda gets back to my question. Your point seems to be that EQ could have remained a competitor if they had stuck with it. I feel like I disagree with that and would guess they dropped to 20% or less by mid-2015. But I don't have any...

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    I don't expect anything from Smed, and I doubt any future MMOs would amount to anything. However, is the quoted part actually fact, just conjecture, or even made up? I could believe it if you just mean the time EQ spent on life support but still made expansions, but that was post-WoW and EQ was...

    At work so I couldn't read the previews, but is that so different from D3? Could someone drop the relevant bullet points here? D3 combat "feels" better, but is vastly inferior in holding attention. Personally I think D3 graphics are mostly better (as long as you don't zoom in, yuck), but...

    Quick question here, would this game be a good pick in this situation: I'm looking for a new game to play in small bursts that is pretty much pve-only without time limits. Basically I want to be able to put away the phone or lose connection at any point while playing without setbacks. Previously...

    Nothing new or upcoming that's worth playing, your probably best bet is going with any of the aging MMOs that have been out for years.

    How does this stack up to Witcher 3? I'm thinking about buying either of those or just playing New Vegas again. Looking at reviews makes it sound like Witcher 3 beats Fallout 4 hands down, but what does FoH think?
