The voice acting stuff doesn't bug me in the slightest, but I know people have their tastes. Lot of world building first 3 zones, into the meat of the real story now. 97 dungeon music was so good, and the fights have been a lot of fun. Avoiding spoilers cause eager to see where this goes...

Well 6.55 was supposed to be our interaction with her and introduction all at once. And I mean, come on...obviously it's all about Krile's grandfather and the City of Gold at some point, right?

Granted, I'm not to any of the big reveals yet, almost to end of 3rd zone, but I've been enjoying it so far. It's a lot of world building over in a new area, for sure, but with obvious hints that there is something bigger waiting towards the end. Some of the musical choices are weird, but they...

Huh? I'm assuming you just mean awesome.

How the hell did we get a 2nd round pick (and early one, too) for a likely 4th line guy in Malenstyn? Like the move for Thompson, too, to shore up goalie with Lindgren.

Also zero queue on Gilg at 730. Timed my sleep well.

I've been enjoying MSQ. Through the 2nd dungeon. Leveling gathering/crafting still an absolute joke like in EW. I don't even see the point of having role quests for mining/botany when you introduce collectible nodes at 93 that give so much exp. To even get the level 95 turn ins for...

Carlson plays D, just not very well because he's big and slow. Still pissed Mike Green got screwed out of Norris year he scored 31 goals.

Still have a good amount of extra picks spread out over next 3 drafts as well. The funny thing about Mangiapane is if season went south we could probably flip him for similar return at next deadline.,

That's an...interesting trade. I guess if you know you have Ryan Leonard coming in another year a 1 year rental at wing makes some sense (especially if Oshie is just going to have to retire).

Kinda hyped to see if there are a flurry of moves at the draft or before/after this summer.

There has to be something else coming, right?

Nah, given what he did this postseason, he earned it imo. Had they gotten swept or lost in 5 could have given to Bob or Barkov.

Happy for Barkov. Dude should get more recognition. I know since he was born in Finland he plays for their national team, but 2nd Russian Captain ever to lead team to Cup (Ovechkin the other).

I'm thinking more about the idea of a quietly obvious extra compensation added to some trade where it came out it was the "price" to be able to get the player waived so they could claim him. Extremely unlikely anything ever actually came to light with evidence, but would be a situation, I'd think.

That sounds somewhat sketchy if it's out in the open like that to avoid a NMC...no?

Hope he can find a way to turn it around and be something useful.

Random claim from random Caps site: "11.8 Individually Negotiated Limitations on Player Movement. (a) The SPC of any Player who is a Group 3 Unrestricted Free Agent under Article 10.1(a) may contain a no-Trade or a no-move clause. SPCs containing a no-Trade or a no-move clause may be entered...

Ah I see, it's for the first few years, then it becomes a modified one with 15 team list for 1 season, and 10 team list the last couple.

So apparently since he was traded before any of the NMC kicked in, it goes away entirely? Small help for us, b/c obviously if he fails here, it's unlikely as hell any other team will take another shot on him, and even if they did it would require a lot of salary retention.

Big if. But realistically we had to take a shot at upgrading the offense, and center. He's still only 25, so the deal can still look good for a few years. We'll have Oshie and Kuznetsov's dead cap hit off the books after this coming season anyways, not to mention Ovechkin/Carlson and more...

Wow. I think it's great we unloaded Keumper's contract. PLD for that much longer at $8.5M could be dicey or it could payoff for us.

It'll be higher than that by next year I'd imagine. Pretty sure their cap situation for next year isn't that great, but not sure how bad exactly.

They don't have a ton of leverage if he's just going to walk after the season. Not sure what their cap situation looks like as far as trying to tag him next year. Clearly looks like they tried to draft a replacement as well. Obviously I'd love to not pay $30M a year if he'd take less, too...

I completely passed over that was rDPS and not just personal. Makes more sense, and I do remember them buffing BRD slightly at one point, along with MCH.

Bard being higher than Reaper doesn't seem right, but then again I haven't kept up with job tweaks, etc.

Aiyuk/ Commander noise getting louder. Fuck I'd do it with our cap space. In theory QB on rookie contract next bunch of years, too.

Yeah, I mean after awhile I just was sorta used to it, but it wasn't my favorite. Love most of the zone music from EW, though.

yeah agree about dungeon and trial, I actually liked how the zone looked, I just think it's weird to always force that "opening 2 zones have to be split up into multiple parts during MSQ so we come back to them". It worked a little better in Thavnair, but even once you had flying unlocked, so...

Use of some zones is terrible, definitely agree on that. Labyrinthos being prime example from EW. The forced splitting up of the zone, and so much useless area in it.

Dak is going to get $60M+ from Dallas and fuck them over for years.

I thought the comic thing was a misunderstanding and not canon at all that they were responsible for Anakin.

Jesus fucking Christ.

Apparently going to keep it running through the 2024 draft, but the site will go dark sometime after. Weird move.

1 goal against all series for Bob, and Florida just looks extremely deep compared to Edmonton. I'll be shocked if this isn't done in 5 or less.

I always level Bard first, then mix of crafters/gatherers and a tank for hunts. After that usually one of each "role" for whatever new quest content the expansions have for that (at least ShB and EW have had this). Being able to just level one of SMN/SCH while getting both helps shorten this.

Part of me will be massively impressed they could fuck up something with this kind of budget it doesn't deserve that will be seen by such a smaller amount of people to the degree it could be worse than TLJ if that youtube guy is right. It might be like watching a train wreck, can't look away.

He's just been hurt a higher percentage of the time than Lamar Jackson. Crazy that's a fact but it is.

Honestly while I do think Edmonton has flaws, McDavid getting a shot at the Cup isn't a bad thing for the sport...and Florida is just solid as fuck. Should be a pretty good Finals, I hope.

Getting a little hyped, there's no better time on XIV than when X.0 expansion drops and you have all that MSQ to play through.
