    no. Race is kicked out of every planet they settle in. Race is genocided by the space facist Kree. Race comes to Earth and asks 1 guy for permission to settle. he says ok. They don't tell anyone else. Race infiltrates every level of government, media and business across the globe...

    Cities Skylines II

    "area 5x bigger then before" holy shit. seriously, how is the performance going to work with deeper underlying systems.. jeeze. that one guy did point out, all these preview vids have zero traffic in them. themes. that they made a vid for this, I kindof expected them to drop a bomb on us...

    yeah, we don't know the drop rates for jewellers etc will be sure. skill gems drop with 2 open links, random colors. 9 skill gem slots.

    Path of Exile

    its definitely something like that. they didn't like how 99.9% of drops are skip or vender trash. so even if you did pick it up, you'd sell for a few scrap currency shards. the loot system also directly conflicted with the portal count system. I really liked the currency system. really made...

    6hour mark is kamil and kane. music and sound. goals for combat audio in poe 2. -taming the chaos.. somewhat. -player centric sound design supporting build possibilities. each weapon type now has unique drop, pickup, equip, and attack sounds. you'll be able to ID an axe by sound alone.

    I took a break to go diagnose truck problems. Think the alternator has a bad bearing.. next up in day 2 was Kripps showcase. previous link seems busted, so relinking. Reddit suggested his showcase was better then others. he had more time, and he was able to craft a weapon that was not a 1...

    4 hour mark. starting Q and A section. with Jonathan, mark, rory, and Hrishikesh(the item designer) gold is the first question. ha. figured. they don't think gold will be a trading currency. its too easy to obtain. like scrolls of wisdom. they don't expect you to use all 9 skills all the...

    weapon swap might enable some interesting things with trap/dagger, or bow/dagger. a crit build that has ranged, but then can swap to melee. or, trash trapping, and boss self cast. Run speed mapping, and then swapping to boss killing weaponset. next section of day 2, was some streamers...

    Path of Exile

    item design panel from day 2, for poe2. want more identity for weapon types. axes feel more like axes. quarterstaves moved to dex/int. spears/xbow/flails new. traps are an actual weapon now, not spells. stat differences in base items is much greater. daggers start at 15% base crit...

    yeah, they have always been pretty open about stuff. giving out design info pretty early. and yeah. blizzard could steal/adapt.. but they haven't yet so... hell, the entire point of the animation panel was to give out tips to new animators. anyway, I got interrupted to go for a bike ride, so...

    jumping ahead. poe reddit is saying kripps gameplay showcase shows a better view of the gameplay. apparently he had a hour, versus 30min of others. and had a chance to actually stop read skills, craft gear because of it. crafted himself a weapon that doubled his dps or something, so let him...

    Path of Exile

    some notes from marks presentation as I watch it. 600+ new enemies. bosses now have multiple hitboxes. in poe1 enemies were a square hitbox only. which limited the size of the boss. poe2 allows bosses to be much larger, and be mobile in the map creatures, not just set pieces. giant boss...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    it is oddly quiet. yeah. look at the people drooling over bg3. I think its the fairly large silence on the game. they aren't showing us much. no previews, not alot of footage, etc. we just don't have a ton of info to dive into. its all new, and we are all waiting. it if was TES, people...

    ha. later in the vid, the Q&A section. this is the tech section. got the coder, etc. most of the question so far have been meh. but someone asks about "nearby". and what a clusterfuck haha. Feels like Chris is trolling his devs here. he outright says he's cherry picking questions. and...

    ok, so the video is not clipped yet. its just the whole 9 hour deal.. This is a link to the Rory rackham, ed tate, and Jonathan Rogers panel. (4h 58min mark) Rory is the lead designer. hes the guy for meat and potatoes of the game. ed tate is the new animation guy. Jonathan rogers is...

    Path of Exile

    PoE1 started out with slower, planned out combat. multiple skills were viable, etc. Power creep turned poe 1 into poe 1. so it could just be a reset like that. Also, preset builds/gear. clearly gave players test builds, not an optimized farming character. think of every time they show...

    this rory presentation is really informative on their thoughts on skill design. Im not sure I agree with the causes or solutions. I think the gear socket system is very good and important.

    disparu made a pretty funny point on the absurdity of this finale. fury didnt want to call in the Avengers. A. becuase it might result in a skrull stealing their powers. B. didn't want to have to constantly rely on aliens to save the day. he insists this right up to the end of episode 5...

    yeah, these are both very good points. level 12 cap, raw fighter is likely going to be much stronger then any caster. basic ass longbow fighter would be a machine. tadpoles, and what items are in the game will effect best choices as well. And just in general, how class abilities, feats...
