    The two psychological tendencies that underlie modern leftism we call “feelings of inferiority” and “oversocialization.” Feelings of inferiority are characteristic of modern leftism as a whole, while oversocialization is characteristic only of a certain segment of modern leftism; but this...

    Last time there was a dupe (with transfers) people were saying someone should just hang out in Everfall sending max coin to anyone who runs by. Is there no confirmation for sending gold?

    That post was hilarious because prior to that, Qwik was being seen as some kind of YoshiP savior by /vg/. After that post, they lost whatever little hope they had left and went full nihilism. I don't think the mods are even cleaning up all the ff14 spam in the wow threads at this point.

    Re: respec cost, has anyone found an all in one attribute spread? Has anyone tried the "50 points in dex, rest in con and get all your primary from your gear" build that was floating around? Seems like it could be viable if you wanted to multi-spec. I wouldn't do it because you'll spend more in...

    Wow-brain leads people to think end-game is all that matters, so the story becomes something to be surmounted rather than enjoyed. Pretty much anyone I am converting at this point are wow refugees. I'm just thinkin what is the ideal way to avoid the kind of boring starting experience and give a...

    Yeah, I mean leveling all the jobs in between xpacs, the idea that you 'learn' the class with anything you do pre-50 is kind of a joke. The rotations are so basic and half baked, I think the only real downside would be the stress of unlocking the higher level job and being flooded with abilities...

    Buying the ARR story skip and a level boost to Heavensward is probably the way to go. If you REALLY get hooked on the story, you could always go back and NG+ it, but you won't. Watch a video summary of the lore and treat 2.0 as a prequel and you'll have a much more streamlined experience. It's...

    People are saying there is a bug with the new patch where if an auction completes and you aren't online, you don't get the money. This is a clever way to remove coin from a game with out of control inflation. :emoji_upside_down:

    They mentioned adding xp potions prior to release and people flipped their shit on them. Not sure if it scared them off or if they'll stick to their guns. Knowing these devs, they probably will change the entire MTX strategy due to a few people complaining in beta.

    Watching Noble Giraffe on twitch for Syndicate side wars on vingolf, it seems like the meta strategy for purple attacking is: 1. Everyone spams AoEs and stands motionless, desynced on the flag. 2. Yell "GET ON THE POINT, GET ON THE POINT" and die. 3. Tell everyone to regroup, but then don't...

    Blizzard has always been really bad at disaster recovery wrt to PR. It's like they believe their own hype and never diffuse a situation by taking the piss out of themselves. It doesn't help that they're now completely staffed by the type of people who are completely incapable of self ridicule...

    Pretty sure Project Gorgon has zones that are weather extremes that require special gear/consumables. I think special gear can work as long as you have a really strong gearset/gear storage system. Nobody wants to play inventory management for shit they HAVE to lug around and sifting through...

    Damn, it's now canon that the PC has been cucked by another maw walker. That might actually be an interesting way to address the problem of the PC having killed the Lich King/Deathwing/etc. Instead of you being a nobody or the CHAMPION OF AZEROTH, it turns out their is just a fucking plague of...

    Yeah, kind of a dick move for Furor to not come back, grill us up some steaks and dish about all the shit that went down behind the scenes at Blizz. The rest of the world may see him as the face of sexual oppression, but we accept him as he is. Shit, I think I like him better now.

    It says on the top of the faction board 3/3 daily rewards remaining or whatever, and it says in the ui somewhere that the rewards were boosted by the daily reward. Thing is, the UI is just so bad at reporting information that you prob never even noticed the increase money. Shit, I'll be running...

    Gearsets would go a long way, also not having everything in your bags take damage when you die. Luckily most shit isn't even worth selling because if you wanted to sell shit after a death you'd have to repair it all before listing it. Add the repair cost to the insane trading post fees and I'd...

    Yes, they were on a timer and with normalized gear. If you wanted rewards, you had to beat them in a certain amount of time. For some groups though, clearing them was challenging enough. I never understood the timer as some metric of skill. Like if people want to take a long time to clear the...

    Even back in WotLK they threw away Azjol-Nerub for no reason. I know my friends were super excited and then Anub'arak was just a dungeon boss. They brought him back in that shitty raid that killed Ulduar, but it still was a waste of potential.

    I just want hard dungeons like OG tbc heroics or Mists challenge mode without a goofy timer. If you want to add a timer, make it diegetic like Baron runs or ZA or something. Doing M+ on release when everyone is undergeared trying to push keys is when it's fun, when you're not even sure if you...

    Blizzard has a bad habit of 'formalizing' the fun out of things that develop organically in the game. I feel like it stems from this kind of 'our way or the highway' where they can't stand to have things that exist outside of their rules. M+ kind of suffered from this in the sense that Legion M+...

    Blizzard has always taken systems from other games. It used to be they polished them and gave a well executed, simplified version of those systems (now it seems they just take them to 'have' them). FF14 does the same thing and has borrowed a lot from WoW. Admittedly since YoshiP is seemingly...

    Wrathgate was pretty well received. There are enough lorefags from the original batch of WoW gamers who don't mind a cutscene now and then. The trailer cinematics are always popular too. Post wotlk, the story kind of went into the who gives a shit territory, but by Legion is was...
