    JRPGs

    In Tactics Ogre Reborn, is everything single fight a “vanquish the leader” scenario? I’m not looking for spoilers, just curious if there is any variety other than rush the boss and kill him before his army can kill me. I’m in chapter 2 about 20 hours in and there is like 0 battle variety so...

    Perfect thank you. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something simple and could have already changed to a specific class (I want to try ninja)

    JRPGs

    What? Seriously? I was delaying ending battles running around picking up bags thinking they’d poof. Always wondered how they worked since I’d usually kill the battle boss last and his bag would fall to the ground but I didn’t have any turns to pick it up before the victory screen. Also how do...

    God of War: Ragnarok

    Am I the only one that is finding GoW:Ragnarok boring as shit? I loved GoW 2018, but this feels like exactly the same game (in a bad way somehow). It just has more characters and weapons, but a much slower paced less engaging story. Maybe it picks up later? I'm almost 30 hours in and have...

    Any word on these coming to consoles yet?

    JRPGs

    FFT remaster was in the Nvidia leak ages ago. So far pretty much every other game in that leak has been officially announced or already released. I’d say it’s pretty much a given FFT is coming, the question is just when. I can’t wait!

    I’ve never played it before but loved FF:Tactics. Glad to hear you are enjoying it. Going to pick it up as soon as I finish GoW: Ragnarok.

    MLB 2022: Georgia Gets the Last Laugh

    What a weird feeling series. Swept by the Astros, but Mariners played them toe to toe all three games. Feels like all 3 games could have gone either way and that game 1 ending really changed the series after the Mariners had it in the bag.

    Everquest Confessions

    I was a guide starting near the end of vanilla. I was a poor college student so free EQ monthly subscription in exchange for a few hours a week of guide work was awesome. One day I got a package unannounced and it was the Kunark expansion direct from SOE or Verant whoever they were at the time...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Pardon my ignorance, but is there a reason you restarted to make a cleric and didn’t just retrain your MC at the main headquarters? I’m just wondering if there is a downside to the retraining. I rolled a mutagen warrior, but then as soon as I got to the retrainer I made a mad dog barb with wolf...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Thanks for this tip. I haven't gotten that far in the game yet to know what it is, but I did adjust the setting to the easiest, and have no hesitation bumping it to auto if crusade management sucks.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    This just came out on consoles. I got it, but am completely lost. Think I’m doing ok, but all the rules snd stat displays are confusing to me since I don’t know DnD. I played Divinity: OS2 so understand the game style, just not the complicated stat interactions snd dice roll stuff. Game is fun...

    Playstation 5

    Those are all on the "extra" tier I believe. Premium is mostly a waste if you don't care about a handful of PS1 games and/or limited time game trials.

    I hope PSVR2 preorders start soon. That video was well done and I was surprised there wasn’t at least a date at the end of it. What’s your guess on release date and price? my guess would be Feb. 2023 $499

    Desktop Computers

    I ordered the HP desktop last night that was recommended. Is this the right ram to get if I want to upgrade from 1x8gb stick that it comes with to 2x8 or 2x16?

    Desktop Computers

    Thanks so much. This HP seems to be exactly what we need. Perfect for the office, the option to do light gaming if I feel like it, and just over $500. Does it matter what ram I buy if I want to upgrade to 16gb? It comes with a single 8gb stick, so can I just buy another 8 GB DDR4-3200 SDRAM...

    Desktop Computers

    @Neranja Thanks for the build sheet. I really don’t want to build my own though (time plus lack of familiarity with doing so). Was hoping for a prebuilt recommendation. @Xexx thank you as well for the build and info. If you HAD to recommend a prebuilt in that price range, what would you advise?

    Desktop Computers

    I could be misinformed, but I thought desktops were more comfortable to use when sitting at a desk, easier to replace parts if something breaks, last longer, and cost less for similar specced laptops? We already have some tablets and chrome books if we want to sit on the couch and surf or whatever.

    Desktop Computers

    I need help buying a desktop. I haven't owned one in over 10 years. I do all my gaming on consoles these days (I'm old and the couch is more comfortable), so we don't really need to spend extra money on something higher end. If it's fast and reliable for creating things on Microsoft Office...

    You should have headphone audio. Might be a silly comment, but have you tried using canned air or blowing really hard around the base of the controller stick as you rotate it around? Mine did the same thing, but if you try the air truck it might save you from buying a new controller. It did for me.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Caiatl down! For whatever reason I couldn’t get any dps going on her with fusion grenades, whitherhoard, and starfire protocol. Dunno if I was too far from the bell for the dps buff or what. Switched to Lament and we were golden. Never been so relieved to get through an encounter.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Haha nope! I duo all the dungeons with my brother and we’ve only had a couple hours this last week to try it after our wives/kids are in bed. We finally both unlocked classy restoration, which helps a ton, but the dps window is so tight we just haven’t gotten it down quite yet. This fight has...

    Duality Caiatl sucks. Is there a way to know which bell she will run to first? I just can’t get a consistent dps phase on her.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Does NG+ reveal more story tidbits or do you just mean seeing the exact same dialogue and whatnot a second time will make it easier to follow?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    133 hours later I finally beat the game. Have a few bosses and items I missed, but not bad for a first play through. Is it just me or was the story a bit confusing? Half the time I didn’t know why I was killing a boss or what their real significance was other than collecting great runes (which...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    This is me exactly except I’m 163 with 50 vigor. Guess I need to get good. Edit: success!! Finally got it done. Got close enough to EB that he mostly did his melee swipe which was easy to dodge. He hardly did any of his long range attacks or swimming away. Tiche was rock solid as always.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I’m a dex/arcane build. I’ve been dual wielding katanas for most of the game (RoB and Moonveil currently) and rolling everywhere to dodge. I’m stuck on Elden Beast. Should I swap out the moonveil for a shield or is that kind of pointless in the EB fight?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    So what’s the trick for Elden beast? I’ve played the whole game offline but finally went online for this fight since I can’t even hardly damage the big guy. Still can’t get him even close to dead with help.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Victory! For some reason Tiche was extra on point and kept knocking Malenia down or shooting her with that life drain attack. I mostly just had to dodge and stay out of the way for most of phase 2. It was so weird since the other 40 or so attempts at phase 2 Tiche would mostly just blink...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Any fucking tips for Malenia? I've been trying this bitch for hours. I can get to phase 2 pretty consistently now, but she completely destroys my shit. I'm running the heaviest gear I can use with decent immunity stat and poise while not fat rolling. Rivers of blood+10 and Moonveil+9 and...

    I'm finally getting to snowfield and heligtree or whatever it's called. This is the first time in my 120 hours that I'm starting to feel like the enemies are getting cheap. Massive hp pools, bunch of stuff almost one-shots me even though I am, what I thought was over leveled ,at 135. Still one...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    My uchigatana is keen, but that advice doesn’t really help me. Changing ashes of war doesn’t alter the required attributes to wield it effectively. If everything decent I’m finding has str or int requirements I can’t use it no matter which ash I try, keen or otherwise.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I don’t know if I’m doing this wrong or what. I’m primarily a dex build with a little faith for heals. I looked up dex weapons since I’ve been using this uchigatana forever (it’s at +12 now and I’m level 61). Moonveil katana popped up as a recommended dex weapon. I go get it snd it’s dex/int and...
