    EQ TLP 2025 Fangbreaker Expanded Start Resource Hunter Legacy Characters Encounter Locking

    The "this game is something" moment for me was walking around Qeynos, stumbling on the harbor right when a boat was coming in. It was also pouring rain at the time. Up to that point the only 3D game I'd even played was Mario 64, making it even more stunning to inhabit EQ. I think that was back...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yet another loss to the Cerberus at about 50%, we did really well on that one too for a fight with a 40 minute run-back. I thought that was going to be the one, since I finally (after ten runs) had a holy weapon the boss is weak against. Nope, still did basically no damage because level 9. Now...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Protip: L3 sprint is WAY faster than circle sprint. Was wondering why some people were outrunning me by a lot at first. They really need to get rid of the "level loss" thing, it's what kills the game. And add a checkpoint before the world boss.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    How very 2021's of him That would explain a lot. The two times I got to the cerberus, my party was barely level 10 (like 9-11 in range). Certainly not 15. On the latest run, we actually did really well, and got the Cerberus to half health (surviving his initial triplet-split) at level 11. I'll...

    What'd he do, he a woke? Bowing to public pressure and edited out the link. I know nothing except I saw a password somewhere and it worked (at first). What should I be spending my currency on? None of the available items actually seem good, except maybe Besmirched Flame?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    This game is probably the hardest it'll ever be on day one, before anybody really knows what they're doing. In a week it'll likely be much easier to get through in general. Six runs and have yet to beat the first world, though I got REALLY close on run 4 by actually reaching Cerberus and then...

    Finally got to play some of this. A few characters seem to be missing, only have 6 available. The assassin lady helped with the intro boss, died, and is nowhere to be found in the Hold. Weird thing happened, first time I picked the cerberus level, it sat at "matchmaking" for ages until I...

    Got a link to Mika's tits? Is she playing it on a dance pad yet? Has anyone in here beaten the game yet? I haven't gotten past the title screen. Game is getting 8/10+ across the board so my "budget title" fears were unfounded, should have known better. Main issue people seem to have is that...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    That movie Anora that won the oscar this year, or something... I watched it and I fucking hated it. Like I can get through most movies / find the good in them. This one though...holy hell. I actually sort of like the main actress in it (even if she has the same creepy "dead shark eyes" vibe...

    Sounds like Pharone was in an empty pick and didn't switch to a better one. If anything, I'm surprised Oakwynd did so well. Would have expected it to be down closer to Fangbreaker territory. It wasn't preceded by a Teek that seemed to make people pretty happy, though.

    Seriously. If a game takes up LESS of my time that's a good thing. If somebody has absolutely nothing going on and is bummed that the EQ server is only taking up 50 hours of their life instead of 100 this month, it's a good indicator that it's time to go outside or find other things worth your...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    WTF are they doing in panel 1? I always kinda headcanoned that Rinoa was descended from Tifa. FF8's world is a lot more advanced than FF7's (maybe another century or two of tech evolution) so it could pretty easily pass for a sequel set in another area of the planet.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Nightreign would be more appealing if it had more bosses from across the Fromsoft spectrum. It isn't just quick boss fights though, it's collecting stuff on the way to them (seems to not go beyond Limveld, which is like an alternate Limgrave). Each of the 8 levels is like a 40 minute endeavor...

    Yeah the "top guilds" it spit out are completely bonkers. All it would need to do is find the various <server>progress sites and get data from those. Off the top of my head, and some of these could be wrong. Combine: Realm of Insanity, ? Fippy: Twisted Legion, Citizen (Dima) Vulak: Echoes of...

    Lemme know if you need an extra party member at some point, cause I'll be on PS5. Reviews of this seem to be all over the place, zero consensus. It lacking replay value and being over fairly soon are actually positives at this point.

    Not being able to field a group in one of the most heavily-used newbie zones =/= thinking it's 1999. If there's no one to group with at orc hill then that's an issue. Are 200% bonus zones even a consideration at that level? There's no POK to fast travel.

    With Luclin zones, potions, and a bonus, I'd expect powergamers to level AT LEAST that fast. Luclin start servers are really fast cruises to max level. However the 50's can still be a slog if you fall behind the curve and have to compete over the best zones. Worst case scenario is a Kunark...

    Nightreign is tomorrow. Anybody else playing it on PS5? I'm probably going to plow it all weekend. Reading that the Executioner class is basically the Sekiro playstyle, so I'll probably go with that one. Each class is a different playstyle from throughout the Fromsoft catalog, from the sound of...

    DOOM: The Dark Ages

    I maintain that skipping the cutscenes is the way to go here, even if I'm normally against that in most games. While we're dumping on this game, it kinda feels like some studio I'm completely unfamiliar with stole the IP of Doom 2016 and is wearing it like a skin suit. I finally have some real...

    It's a good idea to leave general channels as quickly as possible to not have to read the 30 spammers who are incapable of getting real jobs. I can't imagine most of them are getting much business at this point, outside of short expansion launch windows. I feel bad for any actual new people who...

    I can say that it was pretty much exactly 2 hours to go 60-65 in a PL last night (with a +50% potion running). There was some dead space too. If I were to guess, I'd say four hours with a +50% pot would get you from 50 to 65-67. How feasible is it to do the beastlord 1.0 on a persona at level...

    Basically: -In the game, they forced you to play as an unsympathetic protagonist (She-Hulk) for a large part of the game and it turned people off. -In the show, they do the same thing in reverse by having the unsympathetic protagonist be a super mis-cast Ellie. -And speaking of mis-casts and...

    Sounds like Luck is something that eats up stat points from level-ups and doesn't really have a major impact. Or maybe it does depending on who you ask. It's a weirdly esoteric stat.

    The public largely is over it, yes, but the billionaires funding it are still pushing away. And enough young people with mental illness are 110% on-board to keep perpetuating it for a while longer. My main concern is how dangerous that fringe 10% are and the total lack of accountability from the...

    Went and knocked out the Monk 1.0 in the last couple weeks, now that I actually need it for the 2.0. The click is still (very situationally) useful for the rare occasions where I don't have ranger buffs, very nearly on par with modern haste potions while also adding a lot of ATK. So that's kinda...

    Looks like a sizable effort is being made to suppress this one. Either it'll work and the game will fizzle out, or it'll turn into a cult phenomenon and blow up just because of all the attention being paid to it in an effort to suppress it. Usually attempts to crush a game end up backfiring and...

    Assuming that all this EQ RPG stuff was based off of early pre-release maps, I wonder if the unused "Tower of Death" concept was what eventually became the Tower of Bertoxxulous in the SoD expansion (the one with the time travel). It's pretty much the same idea, a tower built by a death cult...
