    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    I despise the AA limit on EQ1 for F2P. I always wanted more people for casual groups. Casual groups aren't what they were from ages ago. Using F2P as fodder for groups would be a pleasant improvement, but they're all gimps. EQ1's F2P is basically an online tutorial. Those players are of no...

    No 3rd candidate can get elected. You're not going to get enough people to stop voting for them for it to make a difference in the direction you want. In our current system successful 3rd party candidates take votes away from their side of the political spectrum between the two main parties...

    On what level? That will do nothing on the national level. We need a reform to how voting works and how districts are determined before more parties are mathematically feasible.

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    Tina Fey shat on Stewart a couple times, calling the laughing of the audience "clapter" (clap/laughter) and not real comedy. I enjoyed some 30 Rock, but I kinda want her to stay the fuck away. I don't think she has the heart for it. Samantha Bee, Jason Jones, and Aasif Mandvi are the only...

    You still have to balance out the map's resources somehow. That doesn't mean every place has uniform allocation, but that each region's strengths and weaknesses have their counterparts somewhere else in the world. EVE's mineral system is based on that, but I'm less aware of their moon balance...

    I do hope they're committed to significant geological formations in their proceduralness. Shadowbane was procedural too, and it was basically just one flat plain, the whole thing. We need valleys, rivers, mountain ranges, cliffs, ditches, hills, etc. to eek out defensive positions. The best...

    Spirit of the wolf = SOW = \'sau?\ = female pig. I imagine he was saying that, not SAL. How could anyone take spirit of the wolf, acronymed to SOW and then say "SAL"? I always said Looselin myself, but I've heard the official pronunciation is Lucklin. I don't see where you get the hard C...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    Is Teams even part of their current effort? I'd read some old ass update that mentioned introducing a teams server soon, and then it seemed to drop off the radar.

    That link kicked me off the article when I declined a paywall. But this one let me read it. The U.S. government is poised to withdraw longstanding warnings about cholesterol - The Washington Post Video slightly related, and makes me hungry

    Yea, that's how I've always said it. Heard a guildmate say it the other way one time, and that was the only guy who seemed to say it that way. I'd never considered anything besides Tune Air until then.

    I've never understood why they have these freeleach cheats. Why not just make the ratio requirement less demanding and reward the overachievers? Are the freeleach torrents specifically valuable to the admins?

    The Fast Food Thread

    I was reading somewhere that your body adjusts to how much cholesterol you eat and produces less when you eat more, making typical cholesterol consumption zero sum. I imagine there is a ceiling on that, but I have no first hand education on the subject. OTOH, everything on sugar I've read is...

    Deadpool (2016)

    Yea, little intros to other characters in small scenes or post-credits would be a huge fan service. Having Deadpool eat a burrito in any of the X1-3 movies would have been the best thing in those movies.

    Yea, if they do Deadpool right I'll buy 3 tickets just to show my love. I'm still annoyed by Fox, but I'll reward them for getting something right. Maybe it'll convince them to step up their game.

    It doesn't seem like you could "cure" cancer. My understanding is very basic, but isn't cancer operating from the same basis as our evolutionary process? I mean, we're close to just completely taking over how our evolution works, but we're not there yet. It seems like removing the capacity...

    I think kingdom is a bit much for a personal whatever. Your family/personal/eternal --- palace/castle/holding/villa makes more sense. We can't all be petty kings lording about from a wooden shack. Kingdom gets overused in fantasy settings. Historically there were very few european kingdoms...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    Yea, Solusek's Eye was a treasure in places. So many buzzkill features in vanilla EQ2 really hindered the first impression. Combat movement speed, shared xp penalty, and a weak group xp bonus really made leveling up gay. Quest flags rather than quest items meant we had to closely coordinate...

    I don't really dig inventory being a meta-game. I'm reserving judgment on everything until I see it in action, but to date I've never enjoyed gaming my inventory. It really depends on how bloated their item system is. Diablo 3 is like the worst for item bloat. You kill one boss and he drops...

    The one that turned you into a fog man I imagine? Some of their spell effects had to be massively nerfed. I remember they added a raid off of Zek during vanilla EQ2, and it used the floating globule elemental model a lot, which was a laggy piece of shit. They had to nerf that model for...

    That's very cool Quin. A solution I've always desired for PvP and logging out is that my character remains present when I exit, always. I just assume command of him when I log in. When I'm gone my character becomes another random citizen of the universe, but one that I've programmed to...
