    2019-2020 NHL Season Thread: Uber Missed the Blues Victory Parade Edition

    Jones strikes again. I'm honestly ready for the Sharks to just buy this guys contract out. Yeah with EK65 and Burns we have way too many defensive turn-overs, but even with average goaltending this team would be in a playoff spot.

    Death Stranding

    Finally got around to starting this. I just beat the first boss. Good stuff so far. I can see how this game might drive some people crazy, but I find it cathartic as all hell. I honestly just want to run packages over and over and I don't fully grasp why it' so enjoyable. The BTs are my least...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    And a thousand forms of CC being thrown left and right. The bloat comes in the form of utility that each and every class can take on. Most everyone one has a counter to a counter to a counter. It gets so frustrating to do any kind of group fight. I used to just blow things up or get blown up...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think ability bloat in general made pvp obnoxious/bad. When your class had a few things and you ran away from what you were weak against and looked for openings to blow shit up it was a lot more fun. Now it has that gay Guild Wars shit where you endless cycle abilities on one another and wait...

    The Expanse

    White-knight characters are the hardest type to play. No one likes them. Everyone just likes byronic types because they are flawed and more relatable. I haven't read the books but I imagine that his persona is going to play in to the bigger picture.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    People fail to realize that the real joy of this games production is the on-going story of its failure. If it does launch, how much great trolling is this thing going to produce? I predict much much glorious trolls.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    The sad thing is that you could honestly just remake the original EQ with new content and the old ruleset and it'd cost significantly less and likely recoup its cost and make a tidy sum. But, nowadays, if you don't make billions you're wasting your time.

    Disco Elysium

    I'm pretty sure the story of this was written by an Estonian who is deeply critical of the USSR. It's not uncommon for people who write seemingly pretentious things to say outlandish shit.

    This does not instill confidence. Felt very EA in its delivery. Give me talk of gameplay mechanics, intent and maybe I will give a shit.

    Give us Guy Boucher and we can at least troll our way to failure. It would be glorious.

    Wish it was possible to blow the Sharks up. Never wanted EK65 and now we can't even tank properly because of him. Sadly Burns also looks like he's falling apart this season(or becoming too predictable).

    Remnant: From the Ashes

    Great game aside from the HORRENDOUS final boss, at least for me. It has so many bugs even now that it's nearly unplayable. Portals not spawning the buff mobs, weapon mods deciding to suddenly not work, and an endless cycle of meteors with no teleport - fucking infuriating. Worst part is that...

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I like Joey Diaz when he's not the main one talking and he briefly breaks in to talk about a funny moment/story. When he's hosting or leading the conversation, he tends to do the guido shtick to the point of exhaustion. I think he's at his best on JRE, with another guest there too.

    You could alleviate this issue through Sharding. Sharding was one of the few things EQ2 actually did correctly.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think another thing they really fucked up on was how heavily they opted to instance content. I really dislike how much MMOs have become hub-worlds and WoW is the main culprit of this. The fact that we don't have sprawling dungeons where we can come and go and interact with a multitude of other...

    I don't know how much I think you NEED to do anything. Ultimately people still can choose what they want to do. The desire to be the most geared, mog'd, mounted, titled or whatever is up to the player. I get the desire for a game loop that makes sense to the brain, but I think that changes over...
