To be clear, I don't think ESO is the next coming. I'm not sure what IS to be honest - but I love the TES games, and after hearing relatively negative things going into it, once I started playing I was quite surprised by how "not shit" it was. I have varying reasons for paying a sub, and in...

I actually really like sub-based models, even if it doesn't feel "worth it". A lot of the F2P games are just atrocious, even ones that they've converted to F2P. SWTOR is probably the most notorious; it's the worst model I've ever seen since they targeted quality of life aspects, and that...

bah double post

Anyways, very enjoyable for what I saw of it. Really liked that you had to explore to find everything, and the leveling system was awesome. Having everything level independently of each other scratched that jrpg itch.

The funniest thing about this stress test was all the people going, "WoW kiddies couldn't handle SWTOR/GW2." Just, wut. I don't even...

You bundle it with phone service (that you never use) or opt for the "special" package that they often have. Essentially you never stick with your same package; always keep moving on. Once your introductory deal wears off, get a new one. As far as the game, if ESO hasn't done away with the...

How are you guys able to experience the multiple portion of it? As far as I can see, this is much like the early levels of wow, where there is little to no interaction with other people because you are running around/exploring/being sent off on quests. I haven't encountered a "real" dungeon...

Yea, I mean, not all of the nightblade abilities are melee - this is the class that gives +dmg from stealth, and there are other abilities that augment you just by increasing certain things, like dmg, or improved stealth etc, but those are passives, and a fair bit of the assassination abilities...

I really like dodging and moving while in combat; my only nitpick currently is that I cannot see the class abilities doing much for an archer. In Skyrim I went stealth archery, so I chose nightblade and picked up a bow. The abilities I've bought so far have been from assassination and siphon...

I thought it was because I had FF running still in the background, but glad to see that wasn't the case. (Well sort of glad, ew.) I had heard many negative things about the game; I don't really think any of them were warranted unless they've changed a lot. I can't wait to play more of it...

Yea, playing it now feels very TES - probably more Morrowind than Skyrim though. I didn't hear very amazing things of it so far, but the little bit of time I've spent have ensured my purchase - as Vaclav said, so far the single player part has been intriguing. So I'll play it for that reason...

Oh, was it pyros who said not all quest hubs unlock for you? How does that work? Depending on your home city determines where your main quest takes you, so you don't hit certain ones or something? That sucks if so!

Yea I felt the same way. Some things I can tell you exactly what I like, other things are just clicking in ways I don't think about but work for me. I logged in at 2:30 am pst, (servers were up early) did a quest and went to bed. Stayed logged in. Hugh jackman could not get me to log out...

Ohh that is really, really cool. Thanks for the info!

Bah, double.

Archer/bard has been wicked fun; they do so much damage with exceedingly little risk to self. Also their leather armor tends to be decent looking.

Diablo on PS3 felt really good; I played it at e3 for a bit (even found a legendary quick as shit) and it felt really good. The dodge mechanic was nice, and while I was a bit worried how I would feel going from mouse+KB to controller, those fears were abolished when I got my hands on it. I'm...

Yea, the game is really good. It's nearing EQ-like for me, which I said previous. WoW got me, but it was more the novelty that I could do more than just grind. FF has awesome looking environments, crazy good music that you don't mind listening to (With the exception of chocobo music which I...

It's part that they are just terrible, but most of the tanking classes need a few seconds to fire off their high enmity abilities; friend plays a marauder and with my bard I have to wait for the telltale "flame" effect to go off before unloading on anything. If your tank is taking damage and...

For the most part, though as others have said, after a few days the game spazzes and you have to restart. There's a lot of cool things that they added and thought of; for example, I put the lancer slow attack on my archer. It gained her range (25 yds) and was an honest instant, since a lot...

Same happened to me while doing a levequest; had to end process and then go back in. Took me about 1-1 1/2 hrs to get back in. Stayed logged in again since then though obviously. @ Asocirev: Distribution actually leans somewhat heavily towards healers. At least in my experience. I think a...

QTEs have only really been successful in games like telltale's walking dead imo. Those events really made that game feel like your split second decisions mattered, or you had to react fast to save someone etc. Otherwise they can get fucked.

Yea, my vanilla raiding was alliance. Our druids had mods set up, so you'd whisper them for the innervate and it would automatically cast. The hunters stole them a lot. :P Think we only ever had 2 druids at one time though; maybe 3. Broodlord was the first time I really went, holy fuck...

I think it's something like that, but he's trying to make a point that doesn't exist. He's equating the fact that people can get any epics to what it was like to get vanilla epics; IE only the raiders had epics, whereas now most everyone can farm/somewhat raid for them. Except, the type of...

That's...terrible and disappointing. That seems like such a huge thing to just write out of a game though; I mean, I guess there's a whole lot to be said for making player decisions matter there but wow.

You didn't say it, true. But the point I took from your post was, "Check me out with my awesome t2 shoulders and look how many hots I can stack on my rogue friend!" (There weren't that many.) See post above; maybe to the uninformed you looked really cool (And considering that I also raided...

I wasn't suggesting that they weren't; I was suggesting that nothing has really changed except his perception. He (and others) seem to think that vanilla was the heydey of it all - that because you had better epic gear and people could see it, that made you cool. I countered with the fact that...

Lol, wut. You're the one really angry that no one cared about your shoulders. When you stop being a little kid, it's enough that you have the achievements and the prestige of doing it first. In vanilla, that meant different gear. Now, it means different colored gear and achievements...

No, they didn't, not to mention that your "Super awesome teir 2" had shit stats until they revamped it. Rose colored glasses; you have them. Edit: Also, let me say that unless you were tooling around on the best guild on the server, no one gave a SHIT about you. T2 shoulders didn't matter...

Druids were fucking terrible in vanilla; what are you smoking? You had rejuve and regrowth - your sole reason for existing was to give priests innervate. It's always so god damn humorous to read posts like that where NO ONE actually remembers how shit happened back then. I have no doubt...

I don't think this is correct. To my knowledge, there was a sidebar somewhere stating that Morrigan had the baby no matter what. There's more wardens than just Alistair/yourself, and Riordan/Loghain is still around. The one thing that changes is that if you died, the baby obviously did not...

World is full, try again later.

Lies, 1017'd on Faerie as well.

Really? I mean, to each their own, and I definitely like my wow alts, but man...when my FFXI friends told me about the multiclassing...No extra rep grinds, your main is always around to grab gear for alt specs, tradeskills all leveled up. Everything consolidated on one character, ESPECIALLY...

Mask of the Betrayer expansion for NWN2 is easily one of the *best* things I've ever played. Period. If you like DND elements, and you went through NWN2, it's immensely satisfying. Challenging in some areas (though by the end I was rolling with about 26d6 pts of sneak attack dmg and the feat...

My guess is that you'll see DA2 overlap a bit, kind of like Hawke's first year in Kirkwall coincided with the Blight. IE, after you ran to Kirkwall and actually got in, the next time you see Varric he says the blight is over and it's been a full year. So, I anticipate it opens and Cassandra is...

God, Origin has been utter shit. They've been refunding people's games because of issues - I tried to load up ME3 the other day and it went into an endless loop of validating my DLC content. Fucking ridic. Battle.net has been nicer at least at the beginning; the dashboard effect is...

What are your specs? Internet provider and all that? I ask because while my LoL has had a few hiccups, my partner has had many issues; his internet isn't always spot on, but since we're on skype, none of that changes. He can access anything else but LoL will hang for him. We thought it was...

This is what I was trying to say; I might not have communicated it effectively? I think aram lets you do different things, but that doesn't mean any sense of cohesion or a sense of purpose goes out the window. I mean, the end result is that you win right? Trying something new is different...

Oh I'm not trying to come off that the way I play is the only way; maybe that is how I am and I'll try to see if i can correct that, but these matches tend to be ones where the team seems to get along at the beginning and you try to strategize, then when you start figuring out what is happening...
