    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Hex does use 5 energy system, yes they added the "threshold" system to make multi-colored decks more viable. But in essence if you want to summon a multicolored creature (say Black/White) you do need the required Black and White threshold. In other words, it does use 5 different resources (which...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    No, not really. WoW TCG, Shadow Era, Pokemon and every FFG LCG and many others do not use the 5 energy mana resource. WoW TCG, Scrolls and Shadow Era uses the "sacrifice card in your hand for a generic energy" Most online TCG (I mean all that I have played and I played a lot) don't have a...

    EQ Never

    First, I never liked Raiding ever. I was intrigued by the concept 12 years ago but once I tried it I knew I don't like it. So, the "end game" to me was literally the End of the Game I usually stop enjoying it once the game demands of me to treat the game as a second job. What I enjoyed in...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I think a more accurate statement would be... Hex to Magic is like WoW is to WoW 1.5... Mechanically speaking, the core of the game engine.

    You got a PP tier in the last 7 minutes and you call yourself unlucky? I think what can happen is, you'll keep the PP and the Dungeon Crawler tiers for $500. Which is a freaking awesome deal

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Having backed plenty if Kickstarter projects you usually get a survey which will ask for all the information required (real address for the T-Shirts, name, account name and sometimes even allowing you to pay more for more goodies like the slacker tier). A link to their account-management page of...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I hated that too. Especially when there's a lot of control to support the strategy; it's basically playing against someone who doesn't want you to play the game (dispell, counter..etc) and wants you to stay and play against them for ~20-40 minutes so they may win, eventually, with a very...

    New Rule: Should we cull all EQ-Neckbeard discussion from game threads?

    If some of you couldn't comprehend the difference between Lore and Story, I doubt I need to explain the difference between Sex and Gender.

    New Rule: Should we cull all EQ-Neckbeard discussion from game threads?

    There are wolves here, many of them I am staggered at their hatred of me I lie in complete fear I call the moths to tend me I forget the form of my sins And drained of motion, the air itself avoids me And void of notion, unable to perceive Mouth barely open, almost fearing to breathe...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    If SWTOR focused on Star Wars Canon/Lore and the game wasn't based on Class-Stories that I have to follow from level 1 I would have enjoyed it a lot more. But because every class must follow a main-story it just turns me off. In other words you still don't understand the difference between Lore...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    My sweet Draegon, what I meant is I specifically said "first" zone. You cannot say "I grind quickly after the first area" when my example was only for the first one I didn't say "the whole game was a quest grind." about Aion did I?

    My friend Kirun. Allow me to explain... EverQuest had Lore they didn't have a "story" to follow. You're free to read about the history and lore of Norrath but it's NOT your "story". There's a big difference between story and lore, I am all with Lore and all against Story. Trust me I think...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Lies, you cannot leave the island without finishing your Class Quest. I specifically said the first zone because you simply cannot progress without getting your wings and your class and these are given to you by completing specific quests. I agree once you're level 25+ and start doing NTC...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Name one game that gives me the freedom to be "me". Oh, and I can name specific game mechanics from EverQuest that are not available in any current MMORPGs so your "nostalgic" argument is moot, to me at least. I really don't care about EverQuest but it is a good example of how MMORPGs should...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Try playing Aion and pass the first zone without doing quests. Not possible. When I say WoW I usually mean Vanilla WoW since I quit the game just after BC, as far as I can remember you'd be at a very big disadvantage in terms of gear and level-speed if you skip quests. *shrugs* God I would...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    They go there because that's how the game is designed, to tackle the challenges of the dungeon and get phat l00t. Quest-Driven MMOs (for the leveling part at least) are designed around completing a successive series of quests (pre-defined path). Not only you're discouraged from grouping most...

    *nods* I agree. I guarantee you that very few people like the "quest-driven" MMORPG design (a.k.a WoW clone, exclamation marks, quest-hubs, quest grinds..etc). Proof? Remove rewards (XP, items, class progression...etc) from these quests and see if anyone cares to take quests and turn them...

    Old titties worth revisiting ? - post yours here.

    Master of Magic! No, Dark Enchantress (Elementals) is not essentially the same game. Neither Age of Wonders and Heroes of Might of Magic series. I'm not sure about Eador but from what I've read it's like MoM, but probably Eador is the closest to it. Master of Magic had very deep city...

    Lucasarts shut down.

    I LOVED LucasArts Adventure games. But the creators of these games left LucastArts a long time ago (Ron Gilbert post Monkey Island 2 and Tim Schafer later on) and both these guys just held a successful Kickstarter game (with almost 4 million dollars funds for a new adventure game). So...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Since I'm at work and stupid web-sense is blocking the website.. I find it surprising how NWN1 two expansions are not included. (the underdepth expansion, second? was my favorite). Oh and in case you guys missed it BG Enhanced Edition was released on steam a few weeks ago.

    I actually enjoyed LoY and grouped quite a lot there. But it came at the start of EQ decline anyway (was it released before GoD?) because I remember GoD was the expansion made me quit since I wasn't a Raider and releasing a Raid-Centered expansion just killed the whole thing for me.

    I really should give GW 2 another chance but there's something about it that turns me off... ughh... feeding cows, pouring water on fire, killing worms on the ground to move a meter-up sounds too stupid and BORING to me. Why do I want to do that? Why should I care? The game feels like a...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    The problem with discussing specific game mechanic or features of an MMO is the fact that MMORPGs in particular are a collection of many things that when all combined would deliver an "experience". Discussing Feature X would not work in an MMO will probably always be TRUE if all the other...

    For some odd reason I am having a blast playing this game. It's weird since I hated the rifts in Rift and I didn't like these "dynamic" events in GW 2 either. However, in this game it just make more sense to jump in an area of interest with other random people shooting bad guys. Any one...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    How about a more sophisticated Social Tool that lets you rate those you group with and the higher the rating (between both of you) the more likely you're going to be teamed together whenever you both are LFG. The same can apply with low-rating party members which makes it less likely for you to...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Why would anyone go to a dungeon before forming a group anyway? I just think I'm lucky to have never really got that "LFG" problem on EverQuest or any other game. I wouldn't mind more sophisticated tools to find other adventurers for a specific dungeon. What I dislike is to be ported to the...
