That is also a huge factor, obviously, and that's why the lack of "distinct" stands out. The new Wolfenstein games were still about shootin' Nazis but they were a new take on the whole thing. BF1 is WW1 which is less overdone and STILL makes some tweaks to make it more unique.

It's like those things that take the average for faces in a country and show the result, but for WW2 visuals. It just does literally nothing to stand out from every other WW2 thing we've ever seen over the past 30 years :P

That trailer was pretty freaking bland compared to CoD / BF ones preceding it. Hell I bought BLOPS3 just because of the damn trailer. This... meh.

If it's like DoW1 you can just do co-op vs AI battles. Had some epic 3v3 ones that way.

Anyone know of games similar to the defunct Marvel Avengers Alliance 2? DC Legends is OK but feels like way fewer options to chose as far as your team goes, more just about grinding up the few best ones. I heard that Maiden: Legacy of the beast is also similar but haven't tried it yet. My...

Yea, several of the streamers I watch essentially never run ads. Like I said, they generate hardly any money for anyone involved: The advertising company pays as little as possible because they see miniscule ROI, so the company running the ads (Twitch) doesn't get much themselves from running...

The abilities themselves are very "smoothed out" on the power curve (you don't have characters with all their power in one ability and a bunch of junk abilities, really). I also still don't enjoy the feel of combat much - there's just not any good feedback or feeling you get from the combat...

Ad revenue on Twitch still amounts to next to nothing compared to other revenue, at least for streamers. I have to assume that carries on to Twitch itself, as well. Ads just are not financially tenable online for the most part, and with good reason - they're dumb and people don't like them, they...

Sort of. There's evidence that the woman is supposed to have multiple mates and let the sperm sort it out in the end (sperm from multiple partners appears to work harder to compete with each other) but there's not exactly a shitton of research in that area yet. So the "for the human race"...

If you're doing one of the Generator builds, all you need ancient is the two Shenlongs and you can push to 70 with decent rolls on the rest. Getting the ancient shenlongs is a fucking bitch though unless you're super lucky.

I was really hoping for C9 to pull through, especially after those first couple of games. The casters mentioned this a couple times but basically all 5 games you had trades/advantages going over to one side or the other based on the smallest measure, sometimes a couple seconds of CD, less than...

Right click for jump is also something people who started playing FPS on like Quake, Quake 2, etc. might carry over since it was super common back then (that's where I picked it up). Space for jump just feels unresponsive and clunky to me.

You can see nerves in a lot of Korean players' "before bad stuff happens", but oddly enough it's a lot harder for western folk to read nerves in Koreans' bodies and vice-versa. There's a few reasons Koreans dominate but lack of nerves isn't exactly true. There's also cultural differences that...

This looks neat, congrats on the release. I enjoyed TIMEframe, Refunct, and some others like that I'm blanking on, but this sounds similar so I'll pick it up when I don't have "urgent" games in my backlog :P

Misty, my mutt with a mysterious past. Loves people, hates things that are not people. Also hates looking at the camera apparently.

For sure, this is what most people do. I actually keep thinking I should, but adulting makes even sitting down to play a game so erratic that I'm usually pausing every 15 minutes to do something. Seems dumb to waste even my unlimited data on that :P

1,000 viewers is definitely rough to count on as income, but it's not THAT far to get more than that, because averaging 1,000 viewers is still more than at least 99% of the streams out there and makes you pretty likely to be in the top 2 rows when people are browsing a game (except for League...

I think you're misusing the suffix of 'k' or something. $2500k is $2,500,000, and $2500 per viewer even over a year is a ludicrous claim. $2500 (without the k) with an average of 1k viewers is still pretty generous but not unreasonable, counting that not every sub watches 100% of the time and...

$2500k from 1k viewers would be an average of $2500 from each viewer which seems... not accurate

It's SUPER comparable to other creative / entertainment jobs that have existed for centuries though. For every 1 artist that makes their living being an artist, like 300 are trying and failing miserably. Same thing with acting... I would say Twitch / Streaming is actually a worse path because...

Devastation is a Platinum game and is tons of fun, I think it's one of their better ones but I also like Transformers so that helps. The combos are hella satisfying though. Fall of Cybertron is follow up to War and is mostly better in every way, but War was very solid to begin with so that's by...

Plenty of PC-only indie games have same screen co-op, but not much AAA, no.

Shenlongs is the #1 reason I want a recipe to make a legendary upgrade to ancient. It took over 60 "drops" of Shenlongs (that includes either one from Kadala, upgrades, rerolling, and actual drops) to get both ancient this season. I fucking saw more ancients for other classes drop than I did...

Anything involving Hemet is going to be inconsistent, it's 1 card out of 30 you have to draw.

This is a movie that really wants you to like it, and in some ways, I really want to like. It's sort of a retelling and a prequel to a retelling all in one, with scenes from the original shoehorned in. Ironically, the re-used scenes where by far the best, and most coherent, in the movie. The...

That means Dig finished the first 3 points faster than Misfits, thus having an advantage, and them winning there seems way more fair than a draw despite finishing with time to spare compared to no time. I personally think time spent in overtime at one point should count against the time boost...

Considering almost none of those skills exist, probably not real. Also no such thing as bile, unless it was the code name for Essence. Also just looked at the Necro reddit and one of the first threads is someone saying how meh the passives looked. Edit: Also, Wisdom isn't a stat. And required...

Looking at the skill/rune notes, it reminds me of looking at Crusader when it was coming out. Without seeing the legendary and set bonuses, everything looks kinda... soft, I guess. The Crusader was designed with set bonuses in mind and still isn't in as good shape as some of the older classes...

Extra stash tabs if you haven't unlocked them yet, unique portrait frames and transmogs, but aside from stash tabs nothing with any gameplay effect, no.

Darksiders II was fine for what it was, but I vastly preferred the style of DS1, so going from 1 -> 2 (since I didn't play either until both were out) was a bit disappointing, as it's a very different game when you get down to the feel of it. I also felt like there was an excessive amount of...

Of those two, Witch Doctor. Actually WD is almost top of speed runs regardless, but DH probably slightly better for pushing and speed at the end

If you don't count just survival-type games there's a ton of EA games that get released. The survival ones are frequently the slowest to get anywhere and some of the more popular ones though. But Kerbal, Escapists, Prison Architect, and Poi are 4 just off the top of my head that went from EA to...

I was thinking "OK how big can this elephant of talk be" but holy crap that was bigger than I was expecting. But there's like magic and a harpy-bird-pterasaur thing so the movie gets a pass on pointlessly huge elephants I am thinking. Also, 300/Shadows of Mordor style fight scenes in a Guy...

Uh... it's pretty obvious what he means? You can't have every single deck be above a 50% win rate, because for someone to have a positive winrate means someone else has to have a negative winrate. If there were only two decks and they were both 60%, the data would obviously be wrong because you...

I think bitching that Blizz uses the same words to mean two different mechanics is fair though

Ravishings' Pally deck looks fun. Out of the decks I saw on stream last night, Kripps' quest Priest actually looked the most fun to play, shenanigans and value everywhere.

If you want sci-fi feel, I can recommend Empyrion, despite being in EA (and still having plenty to add), it's plenty fun to build up a base and harvest stuff from multiple planets and get your ass kicked by volcano spiders if you aren't paying attention. It mostly turns into Minecraft/creative...

Quest mage is essentially a better Reno-Freeze hybrid isn't it? Can't imagine it not being popular in some form. Hell you could even run it in tempo mage if that exists ever again.

Might be the first deck since what, GvG, to have a better winrate going second than first though!

I've gotten TONS of junk ancients, which is why I had the ~1000 brimstone or whatever it's called now to reroll so many times. I've also been running a sages set in T11 rifts to rare-upgrade as much as possible. RNG just gonna RNG ultimately. There should be a cube recipe where you can combine...
