    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I've been musing making a druid (box) myself if I play - but its distressing how awful DRUs are in POP era though.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    1) NFC - I think this is the first time I returned a physical game from Amazon. If I have before it wasn't done in any odd manner like this though - but can't recall any. (And my Amazon orders is way too full to check in depth - I basically get at least two orders a week... nearly everything but...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Wow... just got some news that doesn't bode well to ME:A to me at all IMO. We forgot to cancel our Deluxe Edition copy from Amazon, and I just went through the steps to return it tonight. THEY ARE REFUNDING COPIES and not bothering to have them sent back. I got the full amount I spent on...

    Really? Guess that shows how much I look at low-end video cards.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    0% I'd imagine, it's not really a game to showcase graphics... can't recall a packaged game that ever wasn't at least moderately high-end graphically vs. pretty much the low-end of "current" like ME:A is.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I play on Insanity - I don't run out of ammo (well, I do, but I know when to hit ammo boxes).... not to mention, if you played with research at all there's a "unlimited ammo" mod that's researchable if ammo is a concern ("Legacy Heat Sink" or something - sounds like it'll turn stuff into ME1...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Yep, oddly for L1-3 or so on RF/LJ it was actually most efficient to group from what I remember even though it was counterproductive on normal servers.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    ME2/3 were definitely a departure from ME1 - ME:A in many ways returns to the ME1 formula which was rather dated when it was new, much less now. I still enjoy it for what it is, but while I'm not sure I'd rate it worse than ME1 (I couldn't finish ME1 until ME2 was so good that I felt compelled...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Dunno man. A) The "Day One trick" doesn't function for me - dunno if I goofed how I did it or something, but I got shitty performance and the same shitty models cancelling out the patch and playing offline. (PS4) B) Even the non-humans really don't look that good - not much better than ME3 if...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Say what...? Almost every single game has some better videos that it's got during development that get toned down later "due to performance". That's not being apologist, that's understanding the industry. Remember Watch Dogs 1 pre-release vs. final? That was chalked up to "performance issues"...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Eh - the models are bad, but I chalk that up to bad models, not SJW crap. And even if it is, it's subtle and just comes off as cartoonish - I was fine with the graphic style in SR3/4 and it comes across similar to me - yes, in SR3/4 it was an intentional choice and in ME:A it's because they...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    See I could agree with you guys if there was some sort of extreme quantity - but really I've seen only a handful of "diverse" characters thusfar while interacting with probably a hundred or more. They're there, sure - but it's not like walking through a gay pride parade like some make it out to...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    That's easy to do though, Doom was an amazing reboot/throwback. Forget where it landed Metacriticwise, but it deserves a 85-ish in my book. (And decided to check it before finalizing the post - bullseyed... man I'm getting good at predicting Metacritic scores - two for two recently.... not that...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Personally, I'm pragmatic - I hate polarization on either side, the idea of shoving diversity down others throats is just as abhorrent to me as blockading it. No idea on the views on such from the others, I don't get into such nonsense outside of mentions of spouses (and every single person...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Except there really isn't much SJW shit. I don't go looking for it, and I've noticed none thusfar besides aliens that "look weird" (which is kind of a Star Trek thing, FYI - so many "faggy" looking races in Star Trek outside of DS9) Yea, people here will kneejerk over it and go hunting for it...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I can agree with both of you in a way. When it comes to most of the overarching stuff, it's different - Star Wars (ME 1-3) vs. Star Trek style (ME:A). But at the same time, the play is similar, progress is similar - only thing that's gone is the linearity more in line with ME1. (Which isn't a...

    Definitely for all the hype/marketing it's a low score for sure. I said as much earlier.

    Looks like I just about bullseyed Metacritic - coming in at 75 ATM. *gasp*

    Look up Natalie Merchant in her prime - mentally add 50-60 lbs. Congrats. She used to be closer to +100 lbs before though.

    Troll much? She's got some weight issues, A+ otherwise.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I'm thinking high 70's myself. Seems to be getting more criticism than Fallout 4 which squeeked out a mid 80's - I could see it coming in 5-10 points behind that. Interesting note - wife was goofing with it a bit more on PC tonight, there was a patch that hit her loading the game at 7pmish EST...

    Neat - I'll have the wife bother with that tedium tomorrow.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    At the omission of other things though. I can't say anything about NieR not even spent a second on it, not even the demo - too much on my plate ATM and doesn't look my speed - perhaps I'll check it out eventually down the line though. I had it slotted in after Berserk and Band of the Hawk (big...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    He didn't mention 3-boxing on Phin, so I'd not presume he was doing it on anything trying to detect him.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I knew it would be an example I could use to get the proper response from you. Nioh is well polished sure overall, but it's storylight intentionally - I either skip past, MST3K or otherwise ignore story elements that aren't touching my fancy - so at the end of the day... it doesn't much matter...

    Initially it was some first hand friends - until I wised up about EA Access being PC as well now =p

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    You mean only the "game parts" are? Gosh damn. It's almost as if there's stuff like skip buttons to go through corny dialogue half-assed and such. If all I cared about was the story and not the gameplay, I'd just watch streamers do a playthrough - everything besides the actual GAMEPLAY is...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Hmm... maybe I should tinker with VM some then see if I can get the handle on it - only care about 2 (maybe 3, but I doubt it) box on a single machine so manual would work fine anyhow, just need to understand the VM side.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    That sounds more like Phinny XP rate - not LJ/RF - LJ/RF in Classic I distinctly remember under an hour being a goal with pots running. I think a few times people were even aiming at 30 min levels even in the 40's.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Right, because no other solid games have glaring deficiencies. Even the best games out there have nitpicks and corny dialogue at times. Jesus Christ, I can't think of a single game I've played in the past year that I haven't done some degree of MST3King while the wife is present and/or I'm...

    It's a nice dream to have a new challenge, but without a complete redo on the content top to bottom it's implausible unfortunately. =/

    If it's re: boycotting - Decided after 20 years of boycotting on X/Y/Z principle that it never works - perhaps later you'll come to the same conclusion. If it's about her being a ME fan - she's adored ME2-3, DA:O and liked DA:I pretty well - for us, and our gaming budget, that's a good enough...

    Don't think it's VPN based, I goofed with VPNing and it jacked my EQ login even with a single account.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Think someone quoted it at 4% cap per mob or something like that with 50% live XP rate. AKA aim for high cons. That might be somewhat off, been a while - but that ballpark.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    With LJ/RF XP and your previous performance, I think you've got the dragons about right but got a feeling you're lowballing the Planar targets with instancing as part of the plan options now.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I'd not be so sure of that, H:ZD is at 2.6m+ already, ME3 from what I see peaked at 3.5m total.... And if as many ME fans are skipping this one as it sounds, losing 1m would have them losing that race.
