    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Ah I see I thought they'd have to be screwed in the frame or something like that so it sounded like a big deal to remove. Yeah I know the hose are terrible I used to have one many years ago, I don't think we have windows AC here though, probably cause the windows aren't made for it(most windows...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Do you take them apart every year? That sounds like a lot of fucking work, or are they just not anchored very well? Not sure how windows AC work, we only have like the shitty but cheap mobile ones here with like a hose thing you can put into a window or a door or something, and the full wall...

    Maybe it'd be better to judge a game by how good the game is, rather by who made the game. I can't vouch for all the games I listed since I just picked a list of the best 2023 games, but you have to be some real fucking idiot to think because a studio that employs sometimes 200+ people has an...

    I listed games that weren't polish or japanese, although there's more but I did understand your "request" as western games(Dave the Diver is a pretty good game for example but is Korean so didn't add it to the list), but yeah if you want to nitpick BG3 isn't made by an english speaking country...

    Baldur's Gate 3, the Harry Potter game, Alan Wake 2, Dead Space remake, The Talos Principle 2, Spiderman 2. Not all the greatest or anything but there's been a fair few games yeah, including the GOTY(BG3) and the best selling game(Harry Potter).

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    New trailer from PS5 announcements Edit: Can't switch classes midfight, instead is a new class that can use multiple classes with low stats. Still cool as fuck.

    Granblue Fantasy: Relink

    That's my issue, on one hand I could play this now and then replay it later, or I could just wait later until all the DLCs are released and I get more stuff to play. Just not sure. At the same time I don't really have anything too specific to play until Dragon's Dogma 2 releases in a month and a...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah when they double it, it goes much faster. There should be the augmented crafted path too for 10ilvls lower which is plenty to do the first few floors of savage even in pubs this late since most don't have stupid reqs like "BiS ilvl only", mix with tome gear where it's BiS and start...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Yeah I noticed that one too, and it drained real fucking fast too, that's really something they should have copied from other games. It's obviously fine if you're in combat but when out of combat it should not drain or drain much slower than normal if you really don't want ppl perma sprinting...

    Granblue Fantasy: Relink

    You can play story coop in MHW for most of it, just kinda clunky cause you have to go and find the monster on your own game first, then once you've seen the cutscene, leave, then join multi to play together. This however works like older and MH Rise yeah, where story is solo only, and the...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Oh that last video was quite nice, lots of new footage and a few interesting bits. No quest markers is surprising(maybe optional?) since handholding is the name of the game lately, I guess without quest markers you will need a 2nd playthrough to get all the sidequests done with a guide since I...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Fuck if I remember, you might be right but I don't know, the stats aren't that different overall for the first tier at least, even in older expansions you could use pentamelded gear to make x.0 gear without upgrading anything or doing small upgrades. I think it will eventually fall off naturally...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Next set of expert crafts maybe, but generally speaking it'd be pretty easy to hit the requirements for the next cap normal items even using old tools if you upgrade the rest of the gear. Since I was bored I went and checked and that was the case with last expansion too. If you use Skybuilder...

    Black Desert

    Yeah I made DUO god armor myself and that cemented the fact I'd just buy TRI/TET. I only took like 5-6 attempt to hit DUO on my Dahn gloves, but during these times I failed 53times from 0 to PRI(a ~20% chance), with a nice 23 fails in a row streak. Wiped out my artisans and a good amount of mem...

    Alright think I'm done for now, made it to 302/388 so pretty good progress over the months("started" in september even though I was returning I only had like 4b and 0 gear since last I played was during rental oasis gear) and had quite some fun but getting a bit tired of the grind. Will see if I...

    I think streamers are still super useful because you can see the game being played "normally" by a real person and see if you're gonna like it or not. This is a big difference than video game reviews which are often using official footage only and will only talk about how they felt about playing...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Been a while but iirc it's both because you haven't killed the monster yet or haven't killed it in a way that can drop the item(this is mostly relevant for monsters in the Guiding Lands which is an Iceborne endgame feature where the monster drops additional special items there). I think there...

    I mean it's called renting? It's not like they're talking about selling full game prices here, they're basically selling you a rental version for a small price point. It isn't too different from Gamepass, other than like the price is gonna be a lot shittier. But gamepass works the same, you...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They're never going to make "cool effects that might end up broken even when the ilvl is much lower" because it's a waste of time to try to balance, it's purely cosmetics. As for the effects, depends on the weapons and the actual upgrades, some definitely look better than stuff done 5years ago...

    Oh looking at a stream I see, I hadn't enlarged the video above and skimmed through it, it does look fucking weird. It's not like the standard isometric it's some weird ass tilted view, it's very confusing to "understand". I guess it just reuses Tibia engine looking at it, which apparently has...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Early weapons are kinda whatever. Bone usually has more raw attack but less crit and less sharpness, but for low rank stuff it kinda doesn't matter. Sharpness becomes useful once you can hit white sharpness though because it'll ignore a bunch of the "tough armor" bounce stuff, but for Longsword...

    Ravendawn

    Guess I'll check some streams, judging from the youtube comments this looks like it'll be a big south american population. Looks like UO/Ragnarok Online kind of thing, which is not bad but Indie+MMO kinda sounds like a recipe for disaster, game is F2P so I doubt it'll be playable for most of the...

    Ashes of Creation

    Reminds me of Crowfall so far, lots of cool "ideas" but the videos are kinda like slightly better stuff than last time but all the cool stuff is still to be done and what they show is not that impressive. That game also promised a lot of stuff, had a lot of alphas and betas and video, and...

    The "problem" of removing all the shitty voice acting jobs that are not very well paid where they just do 1, maybe 2 takes and done with unknown voice actors is that it removes the jobs the newbie voice actors need to pay their bills until they train well enough to be good. Sure if they remove...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Well that FFXIV set was like bis with 4pc for the set for a long while but then they powercrept that. But yeah it's like a puzzle game where you just put the best pieces possible with the most sockets for the decorations you have to reach the skills you need(which depends on the weapon, like for...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Kinda up to you, the guardian stuff will trivializes most of the vanilla game up until you get to late High Rank hunts(which you don't really have to do if you have Iceborne either). It's good for ppl who want to catch up and get to Iceborne asap. Iceborne will have you fight the exact same...

    Last Epoch

    It doesn't split the trading playerbase though, one faction simply cannot trade at all but instead gets better droprate, which is basically SSF from PoE but with actual benefits for it. Anyone who wants to trade has to be in the trading faction, so there's effectively only one group of ppl for...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Yeah but unless they massively reduced the amount of skills, what they've shown so far should be a small part of the overall kit of classes. Every class in DD1 had like 8-10skills per weapons and 2-3 weapons per class plus there was 2-3 ranks of most skills which got better as you upgraded them...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    New Trickster video from IGN Very interesting concept, I don't know how good it'll be, as it looks very gimmicky, especially for the tougher boss fights stuff, but there's likely a bunch of higher tier skills not shown in that demo they played so there's room for more stuff. The whole setting...

    Lots of this discussion is just speculations, if you mean spoilers for the existing story stuff it is over 2years old for most of what was spoilers(Endwalker stuff and what not) can't really expect spoilers to last forever.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I didn't mean specifically the quests but more like, everything. Sure they're different games and I think Dragon's Dogma is a lot better, but they're the same brand of somewhat generic action RPG, with a main story, some side quests, gear upgrade, get more skills as you level, class centric, 3rd...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I'd say it's more "generic" than a souls. If you've played Kingdom of Amalur for example, this kind of stuff. Has standard quests with side quests and all that, less punishing than souls, combat is more action focused. The big selling points is the classes being fun and nice to play with a good...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    One thing I didn't like this video is they let you use items with apparently no "cast time" which sounds cheesy as fuck. In both Souls and Monster Hunter, using a potion/flask will force you to drink it, meaning you can't just heal whenever you want, but in that little video the guy at some...

    So been spending some time at Jade lately since I had agris to burn and I need a flame anyway so figured I'd do both, actually not a bad spot with agris, getting a consistent 1b+ there at 290ap. Anyway finally ran out of agris so decided to go back to giants, only did the one hour a couple weeks...

    Na, it's just ok. In fact they're buffing her today, not massive buffs but some, and also fixing some things with her flows defaulting to T1 addons cause they had no cooldowns(even though they were tied to skills with cooldowns). I'm not a big fan of her, the mobility feels clunky, like it's...

    Main hand, BS main hand gives a ton of monster dmg and kzarka is pretty much super outdated. Buy a tet bs awakening after(probably one of your first purchases), it's a lot of monster dmg over dandelion too and they dropped in value with the change so they're even more affordable. Kutum you will...

    Man Black Shrine can be a real pain in the dick. Today I tried C7 sangoon some more, and as usual could barely kill him before he'd enrage(like 1-3% kind of thing). Tried for like 3hours and just constantly low hp enrages or many bullshit deaths due to desync/bugs and what not and a few fair...

    Right I know what I meant is they should boost the drops in Elvia Calpheon zones, in general these zones mostly underperform besides Giants, especially Hexe/Troll for their gear req. Hopefully when they get on that monster zone rebalance they talked about they'll look into that, making Distos...
