    I've got a striker/deadeye/gunlancer sitting at 1370 that never get played so one or all of them could eat a delete for new chars to try it out. They should really should bump these passes to 1415 to get more fresh faces into the base good content of valtan/p3 argos/deskaluda etc. instead of...

    I have my 32" mounted on an arm to the side that I swing over when I need the extra tabs. Still comes in handy even with the big real estate.

    I have still only spent my $100ish and not for player power. All but my main and main alt are parked now so no more expenses. I would buy some now though if they made the crystal to gold ratio better since I'm going to be poor for months after juicing them alts.

    After hard mode tonight I can say that I hate g1 the most. I got locked in reclear after reclear groups for 2 hours that clearly never cleared. But when I got a solid group we banged out all 3 no prob even with a bugged ass seed in g3 that felt like hell mode at times. Think I'm skipping running...

    They are fun as shit and after tonight I can do gate 2/3 with 1-2 potions at min gear score and no support all the way to the end due to the amount of pulls that got done which is the only high point. The huge assholes joining reclear groups when they clearly haven't done it once (I started...

    You boys are hella silent? Vykas breaking everyones balls or what? Today finishing gate 3 on my alt sucked a dick. 4 hours of a "know mechs/reclear" group that had at least 40 players get the boot until lead brought in 6 other guildies and me staying in last spot to finish.

    Dying Light 2

    I bought this at the start of the sale and am about 30 hours in. This feels not as scary/fun as I remember the first being. So trivial to just funnel swarms into a tight place and mow them down and collect loads of loot. The movement is pretty nice though I die from fall damage way too often...

    Some bad posture noodle necks if they are getting strain. I sit around 4' away with eye line near mid screen 50+ hours a week between work/gaming. Never any issues in over a year+.

    2 hours with a super toxic revolving door learning party and 2 more with a chill one that actually had double support. The 0 hp end stagger to kill wiped us at least 10 times and what a clusterfuck to deal with after the fight itself. I don't think we ever picked up the medusa mechanic...

    My learning parties have been bangers so far for both valtan and vykas. Call outs were always on point, using consumes and people were chill. Playing without supports to learn feels great since I have to learn all the shit properly. I was only one alive in my group both gates so many times when...

    The Dangers of Gaming with Women

    Yes. She loves gaming, but mostly Nintendo based and board/card games as she lacks the skill to play anything super twitchy and has the finesse of a piece of granite when trying to move/aim in modern games. Completing games like It Takes Two and Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime together were...

    Win 7 in 2022. Still using VHS too? ;] Anyone do Vykas yet? It took me yesterday/today to finish 5 valtans and 6 p3 argos and all the rest of the reset shit. Haven't even attempted new tower. I think I'm hitting that point where I can't keep up with my roster with how much I actually want to...

    Damn, just when I thought they were going to lose me they reel me back in with this hot fix. - Fixed an issue causing the "Crystal Benefactor" title to be considered new each time Lost Ark was launched. https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/wrath-of-the-covetous-legion-release-notes

    Update is so unexciting even with the honing buff as the mats saved are trivial in the long run and waiting for it just means you weren't getting relic drops when the prices were hot which more than made up for the savings. Getting to 1415 has also been significantly easier than doing 1340-1370...

    Probably 1. Most triple A's just hit the half price button which is $29.99 or so. That total spend list is way off. Shows $191 for the 18 years of my account =O. I've spent more than that in the last 2 months alone according to my purchase history.

    Truth. I splurged during the rona for my setup when I usually build midrange and it's worth every penny for the OLED and glorious 4k gaming.

    I had no que for the first time in forever this morning so +1 to them. The tight lipped content update bs is like -42069 though. I'm barely doing any content on my 6 other chars sub 1415 at this point as the incentive to push is dwindling and lack of reoccurring events is also butt. I hope the...

    You think people who watch big streamers and donate money to them despite their wealth for the memes/lawls/flex of it have it in their potato based brains to not hop on the bandwagon and play/spend themselves?

    For all but 1 week that I can recall. If you play during the sweet spot in the morning when all the asia/oce players are gone ques are low and quick, but any other time GL apparently. I hit an 8k que at 1PM today to log in for calendar and guild shit which means I promptly closed the game instead.

    Exactly. The majority of people I played with at launch that were willing to give this game a try have quit and will never return again no matter what gets released or promised going forward just by how poorly the first couple months were handled.

    It's gross incompetence at this point regardless of who to blame. Just popping into Vern for the weekly today I get the reminder of how bad it still is. Cumulatively across 20+ years of online gaming I've seen less bots than I do spending 5 minutes in any non T3 zone in LA. I am pretty...

    Yeah the upload would be hot. I just never live in an area FIOs or Google fiber goes to. Literally blocks away in some cases. I had some outage issues in the vegas cox service initially, but I think it was a bad line in the house. Swapped rooms and it's been stable with no noticeable outages...

    I have Cox on primary ($150 / month), Spectrum rentals ($100 / month) and Centurylink ($65 / month) in other home all 1GB plans. I never notice the difference in quality between any of them. Just the wonderful differences in price between each state the services are in.

    If I still wore my pirate hat then I'd probably be with you, but it's just a 2 household and I'm the primary data abuser so 1.25TB shouldn't get hit with my current usage. Closest I've had was a 1TB month looking at the monthly stats and that was during no travel rona.

    We're likely be sipping metamucil by the time it's viable here on any large scale with how shitty/slow our infrastructure updates come. I have Cox in Vegas 1gb plan and they said I had a cap when I signed up, but either I don't hit whatever number they picked or it's not enforced as I use...

    Pretty sure some dude that joined my guild recently is botting (1400GS zerk/level 70 roster/level 5 stronghold) as every time I login I see him cycling in/out of a chaos dungeon for the entire duration of my playtime. I hit 1445 on the scrapper with 2 of the 3 remaining pieces going to pity...

    Hah. I gotta push to the rest of the armor to +17 first so I can at least start doing HM Valtan for relic pieces and I'd like to get that zerk to 1415. Then we'll see about getting HM Vykas ready on scrapper depending on how bad pugs look or start bringing the other 1370s on the roster into...

    It's being paid back on my other chars. I pitied 3 pieces on on glavier to 1400 -> 1415 and managed to get my zerker from 1385 -> 1393 eating all my leftovers/bound mats (600GHL!) and another 15k in purchased mats with multiple 70%+ artisans/pities. But that sweet sweet glow is done.
