    Nynaeve "beloved by fans around the world"? lol And the showrunner is a fag. What a surprise.

    All of that is just a smokescreen. The true purpose of these changes is to generate more income. By funneling all player to player sales of cash shop items through Blue Crystals, it allows them to tax every transaction. The way it is now (in other regions) Blues are taxed, but all the other...

    Yeah, if they didn't loot by default hardly anyone would buy them. You spam "G" enough skipping quests text (one line at a time!), spamming it to loot as well is a pita. They give the epic/purple ones away fairly often for events/login rewards. I have like 4 or 5 now. The legendary ones (cash...

    Looting is a pet's primary purpose, so no, it's not new. Originally, they autoloot, let you access your warehouse/repair from anywhere and have 2 random buffs, that can be rerolled with blue crystals. The last two require (seperate) monthly payment of blue crystals to activate. One of the...

    The Aura isn't worth the price, even with moving the pet benefits over to it. It's obvious they're trying to make it seem that way though. With selling Aura for Blues it looks like they're trying to emulate Archeage/WoW and have the whales pay the "subs" of the free players. And, as I said, this...

    I hate to break it to you, but this is all snake-oil salesman bullshit. To ensure all purchases in-game feel optional, it is important players have a path to acquire all items in our in-game store without having to make a purchase. Most items are available with Crystals which can be earned by...

    Since Amazon is just the publisher, and the game has been out in KR for like 3 years, it doesn't really matter. Most CM's are a waste of space anyway.

    Cuz they're Asian. And, to make matters worse, they love to give these types of shitty costumes away for free all the time. At least in RU. And I hate the fact that the colors and textures clash horribly with the world and armors. Ya know, the whole point behind art direction. Cash shop...

    Free QA for their translations, and to keep the hype train going, since someone forgot to tell them they derailed it already.

    While releasing LA first would have been the smart move, and would likely have made a decent amount which would help offset delaying NW another 6-12 months, I seriously doubt it will make more than NW. NW gets minimum $40 from every single player (and will, I assume, charge for expansions), LA...

    Man, they really need to fire the idiot who writes these updates. "You’ll begin seeing some of these changes at the beginning of your Beta adventure, starting with the all-new Prologues.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    No, it isn't. But, a collection of tribes can be a nation. Words mean what they mean and misuse does not change their meaning. I have no desire to continue arguing semantics, or linguistics. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to eat some strawberries while I resume my first viewing of Stargate...

    Misuse of a word doesn't change the fucking definition. Members of the same echo chamber on the internet are not a tribe. A cult is not a tribe. A book club is not a tribe. A movement is not a tribe. FoH is not a tribe. I'm Native American, which makes me an expert on this topic. Also, you owe...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    In PoE 2 each party npc has 2 classes you can choose from, or you can choose both (multiclass) which is sometimes a special class specific to that npc. The first party member you get can be Fighter, Rogue, or both.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I highly doubt that. While WoT is also getting the retarded diversity treatment, at least it has an actual fleshed out story/world the writers have to stick to somewhat. With this shitshow, on the other hand, the writers have pretty much free reign to do whatever the fuck they want. And, as we...

    Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021)

    The only thing that really (for me) makes the RE movies enjoyable is Alice's over the top combat skills. From the trailer, this looks pretty fucking basic and not interesting at all. And really? The guy munching on a corpse and slowly looking back over his shoulder (from the first game)? Yawn.

    Free Guy (2020)

    The Guy npc look was designed by the Free City art team. Cuckboy specifically states that he doesn't look the same but his code is the code he wrote for the "lovelorn" npc in their indie game.

    Exactly what I thought while reading about this shit. More amateur hour from AGS. But, as you said, not just them. It's fucking retarded that after over 2 decades there isn't a simple fucking standard for something so basic.

    Neo is the eventuality of an anomaly, which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate from what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. While it remains a burden assiduously avoided, it is not unexpected and thus not beyond a measure of control.
