Divine Bolt Paladin was my favorite class I have played in any ARPG. Hammer Paladin is pretty spiffy as well and I won't mind going back to that. I didn't even mind the Forge Guard dropping Anvils on people like a Looney Tunes cartoon. I haven't played many other classes, obviously but I am...

"Return to form" as a tiny company that only made art games for a niche platform? Magic 8-ball says "Probably!"

What in Post-Apocalyptic early 90s French avant garde fuck was that? It's like Aeon Flux by Luc Besson, starring Jean Reno and Milla Jovovich. I mean, they had two World Wars, millions of deaths in the trenches and being occupied by the actual Nazis to come up that level of existential...

I got a PowerColor Red Devil 9070 XT from MicroCenter, and having them put it into a Corsair 3500x with a 9800X3D, 64GB DDR CL30 6000, 2TB PCIe 5.0 NVME Samsung 9100 for an OS drive and a second 4TB 990 Pro for games, et al, Asus X870E, and RGB ICue Extraordinaire, with RX Max fans because I...

Fall Guy made $175m globally on a budget of $125m-$150m before advertising, which generally roughly equals at least 50% of marketing, so its pretty easy to say The Fall Guy flopped hard. Was it a bad movie? I heard it was pretty good but still.

I am not on the frontlines but the CyberDefense war is real, yo. Nobody wants to be Maersk, Colonial Pipeline or fall victim to a Solar Winds™ style extended attack.

You're not wrong; in a perfect world, everyone should follow textbook ITIL design. I used to be a Datacenter Mgr at a mid-sized company, and we had perfect ITIL test/dev/stage environments for every app or suite; Change Management was rigorously followed, and things were done by the book unless...

I work for a Fortune 10 company that is constantly the target of radical ideologues, state actors and cyber criminals. Normally you would have a test/dev/stage level of deployment for most things, and even for most anti-malware stuff, there is some level of testing. CrowdStrike is different...

Holy Fuck. I just read the summary for this film. What the absolute fuck. I was not expecting that. I mean, it's not world breaking but I am unsettled.

We just got power back after Beryl. All I can say is FUCK CENTERPOINT Energy. As soon as we got a crew to show up, they had us back on in a few hours. Sad it took a fucking week to get a crew here. And I don't live in the sticks, I live in the city. I am the last person on my corp team to...

There was no bigger supporter of Starfield than me. I was so excited to play it, and even with all it's...eccentricities, I liked but not loved it. When I hit the narrative wall and realized that in order to make NG+ easy for them, they basically killed their own story and universe, it broke...

Its so close to being good but also so close to being fuck you bad. The gestalt that exists between Asian companies and their customers is so weird; they seem to really hate their players but the gatcha/grind expectations are such that they barely even try. It doesn't seem like it would take...

I got Normal Lepic up to 12 or 14 and then decided to switch over to Valby and while the character level was one, she used all of the higher 12-14 level guns, with the mods and even the fire reactor I had for Lepic; I swapped that immediately, though, to a water reactor for the character. All...

Lots of people complaining that there isn't any match-making in Hard mode at the moment. Apparently the thought was it requires so much coordination they don't want PUGs in the game at Hard Mode but also no guilds, etc, so unless you do a pre-made outside of the game, you are never going to...

I just had an old friend who played Destiny/Destiny 2 reach out and swear up and down this is The Bomb™. So now I am going eat my previous post/words and download this game and give it a shot. Let's see how much money I spend.

F2P/Gatcha/P2W are all predatory mechanics of companies looking to take advantage of the worst aspects of their players human nature to make maximal money. It's a damn shame because so many of these games look so appealing. It's the same reason that Las Vegas looks so glitzy and poisonous...

I didn't see anyone answer this so my apologies if I missed it, he answers this at 8:20 in the video: -Golden Vow -Jellyfish Shield -Terra Magica -Howl of Shabriri Followed up by Flask of Wondrous Physik. This video was done in NG+7.

If there is anything they are working on fixing with the expansion, it's this. Microtransactions, horse armor, and community patches?

Do they want to spend the money now or spend the money later trying to repair a shitty game? Let's hire more DEI consultants to give in game characters pronouns. Who needs good textures, or to avoid loading screens, or a coherent narrative, or fun gameplay systems? We already paid for the engine!

I thought I had read that they were using UE5 for ES6; instead I find this, confirming that they are using the Creation Engine 2.0 for ES6? https://fandomwire.com/heres-how-starfield-would-look-like-with-unreal-engine-5-did-todd-howard-make-a-mistake-with-creation-engine-2-for-elder-scrolls-6/...

That's a super high bar to get over, and no established company is every going to be able to reach it, man, but I support your choice; I am hopefully for a Phantom Liberty style improvement, although I don't get that kind of commitment vibe from Todd. Perhaps my concerns have been addressed, or...

There are people who don't want to play games, I guess but would rather watch people play the games instead? I mean, I watch gameplay if I want to see what a game is like, or to see how something is done/a particular section is completed/what a raid is like/etc but there are apparently people...

Jesus, man that video was hard to watch, someone baring their soul about their mental shortcomings in front of the world. It's super cold blooded to laugh about a guy saying he doesn't feel like he can ever take any time off to recover, so many people depending on him, he doesn't ever feel like...

I was going to start a new game on the PC to train myself up but I have been watching so many videos I may have to see where I left off on PS5. This is <Wesley Snipes' Blade> Exciting. I still have some Diablo 4 to finish but now that's in jeopardy.

Some actors need the voice to make the character. I don't recall hearing that being part of his method but I am having a hard time remembering the last movie he was in where he used the "Tom Hardy" voice.

When I did my runs with Sorc I was amazed at how much easier it was to play a ranged character doing direct dmg than it was with the Barb, or even the Necro, who had the minions doing lots of killing but I had to walk right up to stuff to do my attacks. Leveling a Tornado/Wind shear/Poison...

They basically completely overhauled the way the game played from Launch to Season 4. They nerfed the hell out of tons of great builds at first, swinging the nerf bat like they worked at Verant rather than Blizzard (although I am told that my opinion is this rather overstated, much like the...

"Class balance is completely in the dumpster"=there's a variance of about 30 levels at the highest end of the Pit between the lowest performing class/builds (Druid) and the highest performing class (currently Sorc with the immortal flameshield/fire bolt build but Barb and Necro have easier paths...

We're at a place where many major companies in Media and entertainment have a serious disconnect from their audiences. They are staffed with ideologues and activists, steeped in of-the-day social movements, and think that they are making content for groups with outsized voices magnified by...

I just said when I do it. You said you wanted to game to push back. The game definitely pushes back.

You can have as much challenge as you want; just hit the Capstones earlier and then the Trial of the Horn/Pit/NMD and push sooner rather than later. Nothing is stopping you from doing it 5 levels sooner than you think. I am not a rusher/pusher etc but I did the WT3 at 40 and WT4 at 55 with all...

Holy Fuck, did someone actually send a real memo about fun? Are they really not going to fuck this up?

I am having a super good, no, GREAT time and then they roll out this $90 horse armor reminder that no, Blizzard is still a shit company that is completely stakeholder driven and this is a short reverie driven by Last Epoch and POE2. 50/50 that they go back to fucking it up in 2/3 seasons...

A friend of mine loved it, I went ahead and bought it and couldn't get into it at all; drawing cards to use your powers fucking sucks. And the non-combat portion is off the charts bad. I won't even claim it to have it on another service since its free because of the pixels it would take up in...

OMGosh, if you make a fun game focusing on the players and not the shareholder metrics, players will play it. News at 11.

There weren't any on maxroll.gg when I started mine but now there are a few floating around: While I find some of the others, Here is one from Rage Gaming Videos to get started:

It's so rare <gif of every game with girlbosses, tranny faces, and POC leads with queer story lines> ITS SO RARE. <gif of every major franchise in Hollywood with a few exceptions full of girlbosses, girls who are the key to everything, queer storylines, white villains, and POC leads> ITS SO...

I 100'ed a minion Necro and a Bash/Double Swing/Dust Devil Barb and then started a Sorc after watching an Incinerate Sorc in a couple of Blood Maidens. I have a buddy who is a 100 Sorc who plays Sorc exclusively every Season/Game ever and he was Frozen Orb, then Blizzard/Ice Spike, and another...

I bought in early for $250 bucks right at the start 2012, during Obama's first term at launch 12 years ago. I mean, Chris Roberts as a film maker wasn't great but he made great games. Now that he was back in his baliwick it has to be great, right? Now in Obama's 3rd term, if I had put that...
