    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I have a very sad feeling the fresh start server for PVE is going to be murderlated =/ I want to enjoy the xpac without having dozens of max level "lawl Black Temple" hunters sitting in Hellfire =\ Wut do

    The Bear

    I typically watch a show with full interest until it isn't interesting (House of the Dragon - Which, and I mean this, it isn't as bad as advertised. It's just fucking slow) and then I usually pause and do other stuff for a bit/several hours/several days. The Bear? I only pause because I get a...

    The Bear

    I worked in hospitality (mostly back of house) for like 14 years; legit immediately as the show started I started to get that little bit of adrenaline just from watching. Did the sous chef deal for a large portion of that (never actually wanted to be an exec; sous was just enough power to make...

    The Animated GIF Thread

    Yeah 100% - I think it wasn't exactly the Final Destination film but it was watching videos of shit just becoming unraveled and then people behind dodging. Definitely changed what I follow while driving for sure.

    WarnerMedia launching HBO Max Spring 2020

    I love the idea that if a minority gets let go that you can just slot another in. Like directly saying the quiet part about them just being diversity hires out loud.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    So with the depth of classes and abilities that they have, and the gameplay that has been presented, do we have an actual MMO on our hands or a session based game? No long term capability makes me think session. Is Pantheon aiming to be a session based game like Icarus? Is the design hope...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I legit cannot think of the last time I checked out a game's official forum. Maybe Vanguard? Patch is up, incidentally, but servers still down.

    House of the Dragon

    Danaerys would have no knowledge of that, or of anything else. She literally just arrives and starts her unification. They were enemy commanders that she offered fealty or fire to. You know, what sane people do.

    House of the Dragon

    Traitors in her mind only; that's the key thing. Her family was 100% overthrown and done so for decades. She asked them to recant, they did not, so she burned them. That's not what a sane ruler does. Edit - She had a dragon set them on fire. Not hung them; not slit their throats. Burned...

    This thread and the "but srsly guise; I was only cheating several times in the past, not recently!" Yelinak thread make the mmo forum worth it.

    House of the Dragon

    Eh, I think that the general theme isn't that they were crazy - there was a notable shift when the Mad King started cooking loyal people. It's more of a slow decline over generations that lead to both the decline of dragons and the decline of the ruling Targs. Danaerys and Viserys were...

    The Animated GIF Thread

    That's a level of "buff" that is a bit ahead of where I am interested in. I get the snu-snu movement; there's definitely something sexually interesting about a woman who takes what she wants. But man-shoulders are a definite no.

    New World

    It had(has? no idea, haven't logged in since shortly after release) quite possibly the most retarded territory control system ever implemented in a game that I can think of. Only penalties if you don't control the town, and then when you do manage to take a town over you end up destroying half...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It also doesn't help that the Ala Mhigan areas are absolutely boring. Shitload of brown and some forest. Even a certain zone in Endwalker has more variety than Lochs or the Fringes. They are just absurdly bland areas. Imo easily the weakest of the content, including Vanilla. I honestly...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Well... I mean, that's not exactly how Wintergrasp works but the controlling faction can raid the Vault of Archavon while the other cannot, at least until the timer pops and the battle begins again. It had a timer and I think (been years, can't remember) the start time for the battle would be...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I haven't gotten into the rush for either Vanilla or TBC - I feel those are both vastly inferior experiences to Wrath so I didn't jump back in (did both on live, endgame raiding, yada yada). Definitely doing the fresh start thing - Wrath is my favorite WoW expansion by quite a bit and I am way...

    Sadly no - it states in the fresh start stuff that you have to level to 55 on the server before you can make a DK. https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/new-fresh-start-realms-with-wrath-classic/1262634

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    My 2080 Ti has held up since I picked it up in Sept 2019 (almost a year after release to the day, oddly enough) - As much as I want to build a new rig, I still haven't had any problems running... anything, at 4k resolution. Granted I don't play FPS games typically so the speed of rendering...

    Most crustaceans have a kind of lack of flavor. Shrimp are a notable exception, as are certain varieties of crab. But Lobster/Crayfish? Usually taste like whatever you dip/bathe them in.

    Warhammer 40k

    What does 6k points physically look like? Last time I played most games were 1500 / 2000 an you could expect to see like 1-2 vehicles, 2-3 sqauds and 1-3 special characters. 6k sounds like a nightmare hah

    It all typically depends on what you are going for. The skinny broads have the inside info on shit that is vegan/vegetarian/sustainable if you're into that. Looking for pure raw "Sure this shortens your lifespan by an hour each time you take a bite, but what a fucking bite" you always trust...

    The Sandman

    There was definitely a lot of the gay stuff in the series. The problem is I don't remember offhand how "gay" the graphic novels were (arriving soon~). I -did- notice that effectively every villain was white, and every virtuous person was black. The only exception was the cereal convention...

    Dude, the first Vandal hearts was great. The best thing (I don't -think- it was a bug) is if you managed to gather all the mcguffins from the maps (always some weird looking tile randomly placed) you opened up the final job promotion for the main guy, which had a lightsaber and the ability to...

    JRPGs

    BoF2 was really fun - had more customization (the shamans) than the other earlier entries. I'll disagree on BoF3 - it's probably my favorite of the series. Really cool characters and the storyline was fun, and while combat is relatively slow in all the games, it's more interesting imo than the...

    The Sandman

    So I finished it this evening. I'm eagerly awaiting more. However... I'm going to order and read through as much of the original as I can via legit means. I can sense lots of wokeness but there's a chance this was just a lot of subversive 1980s counter-culture kind of shit...

    The Sandman

    I mean... they definitely did a shitload of race/gender swaps to fit various woke ideologies. John Constantine is now a lesbian woman; death is a black woman, 2/3 the folks in the cafe were various shades of gay/multi-cultural relationships. It's not exactly hamfisted but there is also random...

    I'm aware of the graphic novels/etc, but haven't read through them all. Lots of gender/race swaps at 7eps in, but honestly it's pretty enjoyable. If I wasn't aware the comic version existed, I wouldn't have any real complaints I don't think. Hob episode was straight up set piece awesomeness...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Eh, there's a handful of people clamoring for a "classic style mmo" ; the vast majority of people want something between where WoW is now and EQ was during SoV. It's the part that the target audience is extremely small (though vocal) and retention for players who aren't part of that tiny target...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    You'd think a this point they would want to do as much as they can to retain players - the overwhelming majority of WoW players are not world firsters or poopsockers or even Mythic Raiders. Money and time are much better spent elsewhere.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    People forgetting to cancel their subs would be my guess for any that have one. Most people don't keep tabs on their credit cards until it gets declined or they are making a big purchase. It is pretty easy to overlook $15 a month for a long time if you have a grip of revolving purchases always...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I thoroughly enjoyed the game (and the sense of humor) but the quest/info window UI felt like a first beta pass or something from SW:G; really not flashy at all for such an out there art style game. The difficulty of the first dungeon (maybe it was just the first dungeon for the "rebels" or...

    SWTOR has grossed over a billion dollars in revenue, after going f2p like a year after release. Bioware wouldn't mask that shit; it's a legit "hey this makes money" product.
