    Hearthstone

    Taking a break from Hearthstone for a bit after playing against 12 mechmages in a row while trying to climb the ladder. It's not that I lost all the time, it just got old and boring really fast. If I hear "Chugga chugga chugga" again I'm gonna shit myself.

    I can see it being used in vintage as a sideboard card. I used to play vintage but I've been out of it for a few years now. Still, oath and Ichorid are not affected by Invoke Prejudice.

    Raven's Cry - Gamespot review "Rampant racism, sexism, and homophobia"

    It's on steam and according to a friend "it's way overpriced at 45$ and it's the biggest steaming pile of crap he has ever played". It got delayed 4 times and was on my wish list for a while. It's supposed to be a more interactive and open world AC: Black Flag but apparently you will be lucky if...

    It depended on where you lived and if you had a distributor who supplied boxes with Mana Drain. See my previously edited post.

    Yeah, getting rid of mana burn didn't help either. I suppose many vintage players are happy now, since they can Mana Drain at will. Any way I think Legends must have been the weirdest set ever. Approx. 300 totally crap cards and then 8 cards people were trading heavily for: Mirror Universe...

    Yeah, I used to combo it with Lich back in the day or burn my life away with a Channel or simply take a mana burn. I don't think I ever ran Drop of Honey in a deck, but I'm not sure.

    Random Magic story: I'm a history teacher these days and I noticed some kids playing Magic yesterday in school. I decided I'd teach them some TCG history today during a break and took a few of my old cards to school: "Drop of Honey" from Arabian Nights and "Mirror Universe" from Legends. The...

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    Also, you have to type stuff in a chatbox again when talking to NPC's, and like any mature player I type "penis" and "vagina" a lot to see how they react (and they do react). "Where's my penis?" Innkeeper frowns "I have no clue what you're talking about." It's the story of my life!

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    I love it, just logged in for the first time and I'm running around totally clueless and absolutely lost. I forgot how fun it can be when there are no question marks and exclamation marks hovering above NPC's. It's nice to be lost and clueless.

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    I play with a PS3 controller and docking is no problem, you just have to do it a few times and you must set up your controls so they make sense. Once they are set up ok, controls (and the amount of options) are actually what makes this game shine, it's just been years since anyone has released a...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    I've never seen polished endgame content at release in the last, let's say 8 years. A few months in things usually get better, but by then I (and a lot of others) am usually gone. Maybe things have changed and I have picked the wrong games. I don't play MMO's like I used to in the past because I...

    Anyway, I caught this band live on Roadburn, the doom/stoner capital of the world, in Holland last year and I've been following them ever since. I was very impressed. A german "band", this is actually a one man project, but he does live concerts with guest musicians. Needless to say, the music...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    That shit has been done for years in this industry: they get a fairly bug-free starter area done, put 1 or 2 interesting mechanics in but they make sure you can' play past a certain level, because the game past those levels is nowhere near the quality of the starter area. Next, they start...

    In their enthousiasm they probably assumed the KS was a done deal, money in the bag, a formality. It usually happens when idealists as opposed to realists are running the show. I've seen this shit happen in various companies more than I'd like to in the past, including my own. I'm asuming (I...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    For what it's worth, I restarted as a healer class and the game is starting to grow on me a bit. The treasure hunt in Stross M'kai was fun and made me think a bit. Not "The Secret World" difficulty, but it took me a while to figure out.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Some triggered spawns (some assassins I'm supposed to kill for a quest) spawned above my head, on a floor that's unreachable. So, I'm stuck in the quest with unreachable NPC's. Yesterday I fell through the world 3 times. There are so many other things, which need work or don't make sense. I just...

    Ugh... an important reason to reconsider playing this for me: "If you are from the Eu or UK you will go through Prosieben but it will be playing on SOE servers." - John Smegmy I have no intention nor inclination to deal with ProSieben EVER again!

    Yep, and they have deleted some of my posts, because too many timmies gave them the thumbs down. They were in no way offensive or arrogant, but they got removed all the same. I'm seriously losing all hope if open discussion doesn't exist on that forum.

    A bit weary of this. The Secret World uses a similar system, but it is extremely gear based. I'm a bit scared that no matter how good or skilled you are, pick up groups and raids are not going to take you to do a tier 5 instance, because you're completely decked in tier 4 gear. So, basically if...

    Pop your xp milkshake if you need AP and you'll drown in AP. Also some signets drop there that don't drop at the airport in Kingsmouth and vice versa. e.g. signet of harmony... And an hour of farming, typically yields me 30 to 50 signets at Quarry or airport.
