Chess doesn't have to be slow and the best pinball players in the world are still some of the most amazing. What you're bemoaning ins't the speed of combat but more the lack of recovery options. I agree, gameplay where if you fuck up once and that's it is not at all interesting or fun...

Shrooms you shouldn't really fight until about level 3. There's a rat cave near the shrooms that you should clear out first. Then there's a bunch of goblins out the west gate. If you kill all of those + all the random encounters you should be level 3. One of the dudes in town should be...

The EQ permadeath server was pretty fun until you had a bunch of level 29 mages just camping the entrance to newbie zones.

Besides, all true Packer fans knew the season ended when we beat the Bears a second time. The rest of the games don't matter. You Aaron Rodgers fans can worry about the seawhosists in the Super whatsit. All I care about is making FIBs cry.

Up until...Luclin? I think it was where they finally got rid of the old UI entirely if you accessed the in game help documentation one of the first lines was welcoming and thanking you for assisting in the phase 2 beta test or whatever.

It's okay Itzena. I got it.

Alright. I can go without two haircuts this year. Thanks.

I think you should clarify long fights. Exciting fights is more desirable if harder to quantify. A good fight can still be over in only a few seconds. I think what is more important, and you eventually alluded to it, is avoiding the frustration of impotence. A 20 second fight where there was...

Wife and kids meant my free time I could spend on either bitching about video games or playing them. I accumulated more free time so back to bitching about video games it is. That being said it looks like free trials are broken or something? Dunno. Worth 30 bucks? To give that question...

Is there a free trial for the game at all? Can't find any info that isn't from 2012 because I'm terrible at the internet.

Watching RPG's is painful enough to begin with. Watching RPG's where there is absolutely no gimmick, no glitch, no trick...just 4 hours or whatever it was of playing a fucking RPG. I thought the FF6 runs were bad (HEY LOOK JOKER DOOM LOL!). Definitely the low point of the event.

I think some of the games could have been better served just as a "here's the glitch, okay now on to the next game" similar to ZFG showing off some of the unused but fun glitches from OoT. FF7 comes to mind. "Here's how you can save warp using pre-made saves!" and then move on to another game...

Problem with bard is you have to suffer through 30 levels of them being entirely useless and you already have dead weight in the form of Gaulen. By having Gaulen retreat from every fight your other 5 guys level faster and that's far more important then the meager damage he brings for a few...

Picked this up and enjoying it about on the same level as all the other recent CRPG's. Like MMLX and Grimrock 1/2 I spent about 5x as long making the ideal party as I did actually playing the game once I made the party. The first 10 levels or so are pretty brutal but after that it becomes...

I am literally shitting myself with laughter. Literally. There is poop everywhere. They need to do get more devs on stream for games.

Carefully removed from the video, a modestly outlined window to the right side of the screen about halfway up filled with the following text --------- Jindar's Bounty Orcs 1/10 Atop the tower! Seek out the old man at the top of the tower 0/1 A belt for winter Bear Asses 3/8 -----------

Sort of makes me appreciate the short time I played Neverwinter. Sure that game was a steaming pile of kill x, rinse, repeat but being able to play using only my left hand was pretty neat. Which is slightly ironic given that DDO is like the biggest hotkey bloat game I ever played. I ran out...

That game was way closer then it should have been. Failed to convert in the red zone 5 fucking times. Ridiculous. A win is a win but for fucks sake.

Mostly CW combat. Honestly if you're not sick of the KB game mechanics and just want to gimmick your way to victory yet again go for it. I'm waiting until it's like 3 or 4 dollars personally. They did manage to make the questing even worse by making sure half the quests will take you to 2+...

I'm pretty sure they could restrict druids to just PvP and herbalism and after a few days of gnashing teeth everybody would realize just how much better the game just became.

At the end of the day though if you're not having fun where you are by all means try to find what it is you're looking for. I never begrudged someone who wanted something else. Never. If they were a prick about it sure they could get hit by a bus full of AIDS for all I cared but I wouldn't...

I did a challenge run with all three ticked. Two lizardman battle mages up front gives you 40 protection basically right from the start. Then two lizardman alchemists in the back row, one going heavy weapons/alchemy the other going light weapons/crit for bear form shenanigans later on. All...

Most tactical rpg's suffer from this sort of thing though. Once you figure out 'the trick' the game usually becomes pretty trivial. Let's be honest, RPG's in general suffer from this. You usually have to artificially handicap yourself and/or just hope the latter half of the game has a plot...

Downloaded, spent about an hour running and only killing like 3 things, uninstalled.

KoA would have been a pretty good game if not for the quest bloat. Sidequests are supposed to be interesting tangents to the main quest, not filler so you can put "Over 2000 quests!" on the box.

What's wrong with medics?

You know all those really shitty mobile MMO's? Aion is basically one.

PM me your email address.

Anyone have 2 trial keys they don't need? Would like to try this out. Can trade an IP torrents invite if you're one of the 2 people in the world who still doesn't have one.

A guy at work hates the shit out of dice in any game so we give everyone a deck of playing cards, ace through six. You then draw up to 4 cards at a time and can play whatever you'd want your 'dice' to roll. Shuffle when you run out of cards. Shifts the luck element of games to more strategy...

One with Everything means that not only do you need perfect rolls on everything, but you also need the right +resist on the secondary stat. I gave up on my monk when I got a +100 cd neck but no chc and it had +lightning on the resist roll while I was +cold.

For my part it was the fact that when we had arguments I still wanted to be with her after.

Wait, I must have missed something. What happened to Sean?

Think League of Legends. You can have plenty of fun up until you get bored without spending any. Like most western ftp games you get to play for free/cheap thanks to people willing to drop 10bux on that sort of thing left and right.

Security is a funny thing. We have non-profits that invest half their IT budget in security and financial institutions that have told us to turn off password expiration because they "Can't be bothered having to write down a new password to tape to their monitor every 3 months."

Man I check out the WoW thread after 2 months and we're having a semantics argument. Some things never do change. <3

Not all girls like pink either. Myst is an exception I imagine because it was so popular for being so obscure and whatnot. Since then you get a game like this maybe once or twice a year and more often then not they're a cash in. I mean the genre was really, -really- popular around the Myst...

Fair enough. It's still gameplay even if it's just a glorified game of square peg, square hole. It does raise an interesting point though. With the advent of the internet we saw a death of the genre for a long time because spoilers pointed out how poorly these games rested on just their...

Take any pay scheme and you're going to end up with a cross-section of people who aren't a fan of it. F2P works for pvp games since these games really do rely on a ton of meat to churn through. I mean yeah it costs $600 to unlock everything but it also means you have a million more people to...

Well here's one I played that had zero gameplay other then picking options now and then. It was 100% choose your adventure. I played the shit out of this game. Silent Steel (1995) PC Playthrough - NintendoComplete - YouTube I think Broderbund had a few too. They were all the rage in 1995.
