    Vermintide 2

    It's weird they're announcing this only a month away, and they have like nothing to show for it, or even a list of features.

    Playstation 5

    As I said, I've had a playstation since the PS1, and never used it before. The times it had good games I wanted to play at the time and that I didn't own basically never happened(when I was looking at it). I know about the other stuff but I don't need that either, only online games I play are on...

    Playstation 5

    I really don't need/want a year though, I just want FF7. For it to be worth it there would need to be more than 3 games I want and haven't bought yet in the next year, and that seems very unlikely.

    Playstation 5

    Oh nice, would have been annoying to get the PS4 out. In like 20years of owning Playstations, this will be the first time I get PS Plus, so wasn't sure how it worked.

    Playstation 5

    Yeah yeah that's what I was saying. Btw speaking of this, anyone knows how the PS Plus shit like this works? Can I log in the PS5 and claim the PS4 version of FF7R from that, or do I have to rummage through the boxes in my garage to find my old ass PS4, plug it in, then log in, spend god knows...

    Playstation 5

    Yeah when I was looking at the PS4 games on Amazon I remembered FF7R. Now the issue is, I can pay for PS plus for a month and get it for free, but then I won't get the PS5 upgrade later on. Or I can buy the PS4 version right now, and it'll upgrade. But if it drops a bunch in price inbetween, I...

    So seems I managed to snag one of these. Was checking this weekend out of boredom for some info and saw a tweet about being a fairly large shipment to various shops here in France this week, so added the discord thing, missed a notification this morning while I was doing some garden shit(figures...

    It is a bit weird timing considering the expansion's several months away, feels like they'd have been better served doing the ad campaign then, unless they're planning to do another.

    Loop Hero

    It is weird they took the demo off the page once they launched, I remember trying to check it out at first then said fuck it I'm just gonna buy the game. Anyway, cleared the last boss, took a bit of crafting to get the right items then proceeded to not use them cause I switched classes to...

    Loop Hero

    You do kinda switch your strategy when you unlock better stuff, like I haven't used mountains in a while, or crystals, or meadows. But yeah once you have something decent it's a bit of repetition until you get it done. Just wiped on the last boss, he has interesting mechanics but sadly means I...

    Loop Hero

    Cause I assumed people wouldn't care but yeah as @Hateyou said it was Tales of Maj'eyal. It uses free community art and stuff and honestly looks like total ass, a pixel look would look a lot better since you wouldn't notice how bad the sprites are as much. At least it wasn"t ASCII like so many...

    I mean emerald is fucking shit too takes fucking forever, ruby was pretty long too iirc. Twin/Inno are easy enough, but still can't be bothered until they boost the rates further and I can do this shit unsynced in 2-3mins per run. I got the Innocence one randomly while farming accessories back...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah I still have it on roulette but will probably drop it at some point it does a bunch of noise and is blinding. I got the dog mounts a couple months back and Rathalos a few days ago so I'm up to date with old mounts, will wait 6.0 for the dragons as usual, although the mecha dragon looks cool...

    Loop Hero

    This one's pretty unique in style imo, but yeah the whole pixel art thing is kinda tiring, it's just cheaper I guess. Ultimately though I don't really play games for art, if they have nice art it's nice but I've played a lot of really ugly as fuck games. I sinked over a thousand hours last fall...

    Loop Hero

    So this released today on Steam for like 13euros(15$ I'd assume?). I kinda found out about it yesterday since one of the twitch streamers I sometimes watch was playing it as some 1day early access deal thing and it looked really nice, so grabbed it. Game is a bit of a mix of several other indie...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It'll be 4K upscaled obviously so won't be that great looking but yeah it'll help with 4k TVs. Sounds nice enough, I've been waiting for a Switch upgrade, but on the flipside I really want to play some Monster Hunter Rise, so it'll be a challenge to see if I can resist the temptation until it...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Yeah might as well, worst case they give you a return number and a ticket thing to print to return it but you can just ignore it at that point it's not like they actually care if you don't return it, and and best case they'd give you a discount, although I feel it'd be money to buy more stuff...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Eh it's not really that cheap, but at least it's somewhat available. Like I was comparing the build and the same thing minus the fancy Alienware case(just a generic thermaltake case) I could buy for the same price with a whole watercooling setup(preinstalled) at some other shop. But have to...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah could see it as a selling point, CT themed 24man raid or something like that. But that expansion was great in XI mostly because they took old areas then reworked them so you had a "before/after" feel which was great. Could see Lost City of Amdapor and the Weeping City of Mhach but not in...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It's unclear if there's much left to restore iirc, like the events happened a while back and it was already in a pretty dire state back then(similar to the First when we get there, but without a magic cat and his allagan crystal tower). There's also a very obvious other choice, the New World...

    Blizzcon Online 2021

    "Log in and complete 3 dungeons today for a random rune box". Seriously though I expect this one to be ok, they'll probably just clean up the graphics, add good resolution support, make gold autopick, make keybindings more modern(press key to cast, vs press key to replace a button then press...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Plain plain, or plain with salt? Cause salt is more than enough for me, I don't like dipping into sauces or whatever, but no salt is just kinda weird.

    I wonder if for that one they'll bother letting you turn it in for another item with speed, or if they'll just say fuck it you can have 150gil for it instead.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well one of each and you have enough, it just gets messy if you're keeping multiple weapons for whatever reason(I have a few duplicate cause it's stuff I can desynth yet or whatever but otherwise it shouldn't be an issue, you just throw away the previous weapon when you upgrade, since only one...

    No ultimate in 5.5 sucks, I was looking forward to the twitch streams(I had no interest in doing ultimate myself but it's fun watching people do it).

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think him directly would destroy it, and more instead we get Tempered/whatever Hydaelin has done to us, and we now have both powers and can fight the threat. Emet shows up, smiles knowingly and walks into the sunset again doing his little wave thing. For healers I just hope they add DPS...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I think an interesting twist would be that we're going to the Moon so we can free Zodiark ourselves, to fight against the End of the World, like the Ascians did back then. This might or might not backfire. And yeah I do expect that specific area to be filled with 4 references, and possibly...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't necessarily think 4 will be the focus, hell they've shown Anima already and that's 10. I think they're just doing all the 4 stuff because they decided we were going to the Moon(which they've teased for a while) and obviously if you think about going to the Moon, you think about 4, but...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Corsair was a melee class first in XI, they only had a few pistol skills, which somewhat made sense if you think of a Pistol being annoying to reload and such, so you wouldn't be constantly firing it(and if you were, you'd just use 2 pistols, no need for a scimitar/saber melee weapon). Somewhat...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think they specifically said Zenos would be the new melee class, he could be anything? Corsair does make sense with Thavnair being a focus and works well with the shirt. Someone on reddit made a more complicated relation, with the director of the movie being named Julien Temple(remember...

    Ended up waking up early anyway, new class looks cool but wished they showed a bit more like class mechanics(other than "can power itself up" which fucking means jackshit, every healer can do that with wings/super fairy/neutral). Interesting to see how it competes against SCH, in a way I'd...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Few hours to the reveal of the new expansion, very hyped. Although I'll be sleeping when it airs, can't be bothered watching it live, I'll just watch the vod when I wake up a few hours later. Been holding off on tomes and stuff to figure out what I should raid with, think I'm gonna go for savage...

    Total War: Warhammer

    While there's gonna be overlap in units due to the nature of the faction, I think they'll do them separate. There might be a campaign where you unite them(might be the main campaign theme for example) but I'm not sure they'd just release as one faction. Could be though if there's enough variety...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They're definitely using the relic stuff to populate HW areas, but at the same time it isn't much different than usual relic bullshit grinding, and at least the first couple of steps you can grind in Bozjan decently. Current step is shit in Bozjan(or outright doesn't exist). That said in terms...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Oh yeah original chaos warrior DLC is pretty rinky dinky shit, it's not at all what the "real" Chaos is. It's gonna have big demons and smaller demons and casters doing more demon shit, not half naked men and mangy dogs. While I don't know what kind of army mechanics they'll have, I expect...
  37. Pyros

    Total War: Warhammer

    From the announcement there will be 6 playable factions, each of the Chaos ones + Kislev and Canthay on the "good guys" side. There will also be a preorder faction that'll be released at the same time(can get the preorder bonus up to 1 week AFTER launch, so you can wait to see people's...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah it is Gogo, he's part of the BLU storyline. Which, admitedly, is complete shit and basically the same as the previous one. The actual BLU content is really light this patch(only one carnivale fight and the story is meh with only one fight in it, which is the carnival fight) but the spells...

    Yeah just like the other steps, it's generally much better outside, although for the other 2 steps you could farm memories at a decent pace inside IF you made a cluster party(the droprate from fates was absolute ass, I didn't even get 20/20/20 farming from 1 to 15). Sucks you can't queue with...

    Yeah kinda needed Kislev for the expansion, made sense for them to do it after what they did with Pirates too.
