    Path of Exile

    Theres several tactics. General. focus on favor over rewards. fill out units asap. buy things from navali every round. 1. vacuum defense. fill your flankers, then escorts first. with fast units. you just play defense, patrolling up and down, and kill anything that comes near. 2...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    "i have 350 hours+ across 3 playthroughs of skrym, and like 200+ in several playthroughs of fo4" is a selling point to me, not a failure. TES especially is not about the main quest. that you can go get lost in the world doing area quests, etc and there's MORE content then you can get to...

    yeah, this is one of the bigger things. yesterday in global chat for example someone asked, "is there a way to upgrade a magic item to a rare?" to which someone correctly replied, "yes, with a regal orb". however, ,that person did not follow up to say, "don't actually do that unless you know...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    "Season pass" dlc has been a thing for a while in quite a few games. no its not the "season pass" as those battlepass's etc. In these games, its typically a years worth of DLC or so. Here's Wrath of the righteous's Season pass 1. $28.99 "Get access to the three upcoming DLCs and save on...

    Path of Exile

    checking reddit saw a big tip. you can sell units for favor in the trials. so when you have 200 here, 200 there, thats useless. buy what you can, then go to the npc you WANT to buy things from, and sell those items/units to them, and get favor with that new npc.

    town loading screens are brutal this league. some people are theorizing its the MTX and the new graphics patch loading them all.

    Path of Exile

    yes. 20 min of killing every enemy 40 times to get the respawn timers big enough to actually take out totems every time, for 2 alt shards. maybe later the rewards get better, but early, man they suck. and, you shouldn't even be picking based on reward, you need to pick based on favor...

    which method are you using? saving to hard drive? or, the import to poe game version? if importing, dont just load up poe, actually log into the game. since poe isn't offline yet, should be able to do it still. Might be slow due to heavy activity.

    Heart of Stone (2023)

    Surprised no one else has posted about this. I thought we had some Gadot lovers here. I'm about half way through so far. Its pretty ok. no woke shit. Gadot's acting is above average for her. I've seen her get shit on for being terrible at acting in some of her other roles. While shes not...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    to be clear, you do not get the base game with this. you get it free via gamepass... but if/when its removed from gamepass, you would then own the DLC, but not the base game.

    It uses coldsnap, vortex and creeping doom. you're looking at just vortex. coldsnap for chill/exposure/bonesnap.

    I'm way out of date, so don't plan on really making use of any of the cutting edge stuff. found this build which sounded neat. core is skills that were around before I left. (I think creeping doom was added in that last league I played) but, changes to auras, defenses, link skills. whats...

    Cities Skylines II

    dang, so seems like they are trying a deeper econ sim. jobs, actual household wealth, spend money on entertainment, etc based on wealth. homeless camps, etc. raise taxes on an industry to drive them out, lower on another to bring more in.

    Super Knight Man in Steel - Made by Our Own pwe!

    well, double checking it IS ALL crit 10%, and dagger -10% damage. so thats a balancing feature already. I've never been a fan of crit/crit damage in games. I find it tends to be fairly op every time its in games. PVP especially. you can heal through steady damage, but 1% chance to oneshot...

    Super Knight Man in Steel - Made by Our Own pwe!

    I think its that on paper the first rank of crit is by itself actually a damage loss. 100 damage per hit. 5% crit chance. at 50% increased damage on crits. that'd be 102.5% damage average. a 5% chance of 150 damage. 95% chance of 100. 95+7.5= 102.5. so, whats 100 per hit, +10% chance...

    Super Knight Man in Steel - Made by Our Own pwe!

    hp regen is bugged I think. it does not activate when you choose it. it activates after you take damage the first time, after picking it. sometimes.. also the triple dagger upgrade is too much. its like the other stuff might as well not even exist. I like the idea of the ducks as being a...
