    I think for me it's going to come down to how good those read speeds actually are. I still have nightmares of Bloodborne/FFXV load times on the original PS4.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    So scale it down. Don't operate on a budget that requires seeing X00,000 players per month to achieve a return. Maybe instead operate on a budget that only needs X0,000 players or maybe even X,000 players per month. Target niche communities that prove they can be loyal, and let them determine...

    Correct. Which I don't mind, but I wish there was a greater selection.

    ArcheAge. They had an extremely solid game that was unfortunately murdered by their 1.0 update. This was pretty recent, too.

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    I'm probably not going to buy it on Steam because the only times I want to play it are when Microsoft does their $1 for a month of GamePass deal, and I doubt I'll ever pay for enough months to equal the price tag on Steam.

    Have you tried Tavernkeeper? He might help you survive to lategame, and he's a 3/3 now which means he can fight.

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    Anyone have any favorite abilities or builds yet? Here's some things I noticed: Mage Armor is REALLY good. This might just be because we don't have access to good medium or any heavy armors yet, but for 4 Memory, you get 200 armor in every category, which is only about 20% weaker than hide...

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    The number of unlockable abilities in this game is pretty impressive. Really cool to see this many, especially during an early alpha test.

    If Rescue had a 30s cooldown, I might be more inclined to play healer.

    First few hours of patch, looks like spider aggro has made a comeback.

    Also, I would have preferred Rearguard made into a vanilla 2/2 than his current form. At least then, Noxus would have a playable 1 drop.

    I think stealing from the bottom of the enemy's deck instead of the top is a no-brainer at this point. The functionality is already in the game, they just need to change it.

    If Mystic Shot wasn't able to target Nexus, then not blocking Rearguard turn 1 would be less punishing. It would also nerf the Ezreal combo by a bit.

    My theory is that he's still too slow vs. aggro and the current midrange decks can still punch through him. It's certainly a powerful effect, but I think it ultimately won't make much of a difference.

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    The Shen change is pretty significant. He's looking like a good contender for deck slots now. (You can even play him just for his stat line in expeditions, though it's too bad Riposte has been removed from some archetypes). I disagree with the Vi change. I think Riot misunderstands why Vi is...

    I play Nox/Freljord and when that card gets dropped, I basically have to pray I have enough burn/Overwhelm to close out the game or I'm just dead. I think the card would be fine if it actually came out on Round 8, but because of how spell mana works it's getting played on Round 5 which is...

    Archeage

    Yeah a lot of people I used to dominate Aranzeb with are going back but like I said earlier, it just wouldn't be the same so I'm not going to do it. The knowledge gap is going to be massive and all the returners will be at a huge disadvantage unless they can find some people who stuck with it to...

    Maybe. I've been taking a break from games in general right now and it's been really refreshing. I'll hit you up if I change my mind.

    I started a static with my brother and we were having a great time, but I got a new job which conflicts with the schedule. Real life has to come first. I would form a new static with a new schedule but earliest I could raid would be like 7:30pm West coast time on weekdays, which is basically...

    After the second week of savage I stopped logging in. I really want to find sustained entertainment in this game but I can't. There's tons of people everywhere but the game feels like a ghost town.

    Weeks, months, doesn't matter, that would be time better spent getting to know someone that at least has the same values as you.

    Why waste time? There's thousands of single women just a swipe away, no point in wasting months with someone and then breaking up due to life path differences that could've been ironed out earlier.

    Used this line on a third date last night and it landed really well. She seemed pretty adamantly agreed so I'm pretty sure she wasn't just saying it so I would like her.

    If this was TLP server I would be down. Would love to restart the game from pre-1.0 with an uncucked business model. But starting over on whatever their current patch is does not appeal to me.

    Archeage

    Game was killed before Trion ever touched it. All they had to do was negotiate for more control in the license. But they were floundering due to the failure of Defiance, End of Nations, and Warface, so they couldn't pull it off.

    Why did they keep messing with this shit after the first big balance patch? The game was in a REALLY solid state after that. Hearing that they've been messing around with fundamental gameplay elements even more makes me not want to play it again.

    Honestly, I don't know any MNKs that try to get the Anatman tick in their opener. It's super cheesy and equates to such a tiny DPS gain that it's almost imperceptible. If that's what you're worried about, don't be. I have quite a few friends that are 90+ percentile MNKs and none of them do the...

    If you remove the MP cost from TBN, you also have to remove the free EoS if it pops, otherwise it just becomes another offensive DPS boost to hit on CD, which would be really cancerous for the spirit of the class.

    TBN doesn't cost any resources either... there's never a reason to go below 3000 MP on DRK so you always have enough to use TBN.

    DRK already has the strongest self-mitigation tools out of all the tanks. We don't need buffs in that area but I mean, I'll take 'em lol
