    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You could skip the necro pack as it really doesn't add anything other than the class and if it's your first time you have plenty of choices to play with until bored unless PC is selling the eternal edition which they weren't last time I checked.

    Thought Erasure, Thought Erasure, Thought Erasure. So boring. Trying to make this knights deck work, but it's still a bit too slow without a perfect opening hand, but it seems to be doing well against most meta decks. 8 Swamp (RIX) 194 8 Plains (RIX) 192 4 Knight of Grace (DAR) 23 4 Knight...

    Outward (PC/Xbox/PS4 Survival RPG Mar-26)

    Oh I'm playing on Xbox1X and even with it being enhanced it still looks like a 10 year old game on a 4K OLED TV compared to something like the Tomb Raider games or even Monster Hunter World which looks almost PC quality. I normally play everything on PC with ultra so I'm probably just being...

    Outward (PC/Xbox/PS4 Survival RPG Mar-26)

    I finally ventured out of Chersonese after getting full master trader garb to zoom zoom around. Forgot to pack my bow and ran into a manticore in Enmerkar that I had to kite across half the zone so other NPCs would help kill it. Got a pretty nice sword from it though. I haven't even progressed...

    It went much better off without him =O Got a big backpack, blue sand armor and just got some mana though I have no idea where/how to get spells. Not sure what to do next other than start progressing with the main story and it was getting late so called it off before I spent another 2 hours...

    I have logged in once in the last two weeks after playing every single day from launch. They better knock the PTS changes out the park or I'm going to be sad shelving this for a year or two like D1 ;[

    Outward (PC/Xbox/PS4 Survival RPG Mar-26)

    I bought this on a whim last night on xbox. Tried local coop with a friend. He is horrible and wanted to pick fights with everything we saw so there was a lot of death, but it seemed enjoyable so far and I plan on binging quite a bit solo.

    Yeah finally got one too. Plays well, but if what exists is going to be the totality of the game it'll be a pass unless it's part of prime membership or something.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    I'd pay $50 a month for some modern graphics/ui, more quests and some quality of life changes in EQ with expansions up to SoL and then some new content that isn't a former expansion. EQ still doesn't bore me for whatever reason and I enjoyed playing quite a few progression servers, but I'm done...

    If you're wanting to play ranked and think you can't get through gold without a meta deck then you're probably below average considering the win rate requirements to advance. It takes around 20-25 hours at around a 54-55% win rate to hit platinum starting from bronze. Almost all the precon...

    Any pile can get to mythic with enough time meta or otherwise, but barring time investment and the desire to spend you can easily get to platinum with any mono colored aggro deck. I've done it each month since the only time I really play multicolor decks is with jank barring my r/g warrior dip.

    Even getting mythic is a 20ish hour a week commitment. The game variance to stay in the top 50 is going to force you to play 40+ hours a week in most cases. Not worth it unless you're a streamer, unemployed, autist or some combo of all. I'm averaging an hour or so a day now since RNA set...

    I popped 80 packs but my enthusiasm for making new constructed decks is pretty low with my rank climb being done for the month. Will probably bust out some sealed in the meanwhile. First time I really took a look at the cards though and I dig a lot of the art this set.

    Playstation 5

    I agree their exclusives are fantastic, but 1) I'm sick of exclusivity 2) the amount of money I would spend for 5-10 games tops over the life of a console isn't worth the $1k+ I'd end up spending. Luckily most of my friends that are PS only console people have PC for all the good multiplayer...

    The Division 2

    Lame. Why the hell are there even 4 difficulties if they are basically going to be easiest, easier, easy, easy+? That ruins the fun for me more than the loot issues or anything else since you could already blow through content solo no matter the difficulty and even 4 man Heroic was only...

    Did they nerf difficulty already? Played for a bit yesterday for the first time in a week or so and it seemed like things were dying way easier.

    I will definitely be buying all of those alt art planeswalker to satisfy the weeb in me. Watching some of the prerelease streamers and they are demonstrating some broken interactions pretty easily with this set already. Going to be pretty funny once people have a week or two to mess around.

    Neat bug since the patch, where the opponent rope stops at zero and the game never continues. Twice so far in about a dozen games and the only way out is to concede or just alt-f4 and you get to come back to a loss.

    I got my white dye without even opening the ivory chest and my black dye is currently bugged to show up as white too. Getting hard to log in now that I am pretty min/max'ed and there being no point in chasing loot. Still got close to 200 hours before I stopped logging in every day which beat my...

    Yeah I play Eternal as well for my other CCG, but I like MTG the best. I honestly don't mind aggro meta since games are quick in either direction, but when I have to play out 10-20 minute games that are basically hope I draw perfect and they draw poorly with absolute zero middleground it's Zzz...

    I've swapped around between WW, RDW, R/G Warriors, Mono U, Mono G, Drakes and even a pretty basic Mono B aggro deck for shits and giggles and it hasn't made a difference. I also thought that deck strength wasn't part of ladder matching anymore so I don't even know if it matters. Can't even just...

    Are you playing that pile in ladder or just normal? =O --- I've played over 200 Bo1 games this week and the amount of Esper Control or the Dovin's Acuity variation on ranked is too damn high. When I got to platinum I straight conceded 50 games in a row hoping to lower my MMR a bit and still...

    The Division 2

    I'm still enjoying myself because the game play loop is enjoyable and gear is pretty much a meaningless bonus rather than a necessity. I love playing ARPG's/MMOs and even then it's hard to get excited about loot unless it's to help with progression. If/when having min/maxed gear actually...

    I think the psychological effect of not having 500+GS is weighing way too heavily for people when it doesn't matter game play wise since we are/should be chasing stat/talent rolls. It took half a dozen hours to get to where 500+ stuff was dropping. By the end of the week everyone will be 500+...

    They stealth nerfed dialed in if you didn't notice I think in the last patch. I'm also using Sharpshooter primarily and because of it I'm either maxed or close to max stability with every weapon so it's a wasted talent at the moment. Same boat as you with around 140 played, but I'm pretty much...

    The Division 2

    Yeah that would have been the ideal system. Trash a talent or stat and then apply it to whatever. I don't know if they end up reworking the system, but it is worse than Div 1's by far so I'm hoping they do or that gear sets are just wear and forget so no one has to worry about brand crap once...

    I think I have 20 items in my stash which is enough to replace each talent I would actually use, a few items with CHC of 10%+ and DTE of 40%+ and a copy of creeping death since I've only seen that one time even though I doubt I'll ever use it. Nothing is uncommon enough to worry about if you're...

    The extra loot isn't even worth the time spent since it's so RNG based and unless you're a real life hoarder who needs 14 holsters with hard hitting on them then how could you run out of storage space. Keep high rolls of each type and a talent of each type. It's not like loot doesn't rain down...

    I went from bronze to gold 2 this morning in b01 ladder and every single game I played was against esper control except for 1 rdw and 1 jund. So friggin tedious to play against repeatedly. Worse than playing bo3 for time spent. I pray my next session is just all wins straight to platinum so I...

    It's not that much worse than any other challenging mission when people don't know what they are doing. When you destroy both tanks, rush boat and you can end it without even having to kill the rest of the mobs. If I'm demo spec I can just kill the whole boat once the ramps drop solo and then...

    MTG: Arena

    I don't think any current standard decks with life gain are also running lava coil, even in sideboard, save maybe gates so taking out a rekindling phoenix is going to require 2 spells in the majority of cases aside from vraskas which also takes out planeswalkers so tibalt isn't safe.
  36. Chimney

    MTG: Arena

    I guess it gives another option, but if I'm going to bo3 with red then I'm likely going to play phoenixes since they are a lot more sticky and then start splashing in cindervines etc. Citadel looks like it'll do gross things in edh.

    Codes for freebies. SuperScry ParallaxPotion There will likely be more too since there are quite a few cards where alt art aren't purchasable. 5-0'ed the event with white weenie and then with a 14 land RDW just to see if I could get away with it. So many easy turn 3 wins.

    The game will forever have factions fighting for control points and such. You're able to level them up by taking out linked objectives to make them more difficult and get access to new drops. And I hope their is at least another difficulty beyond heroic. Only reason challenging is difficult...
