    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I just remember most geared locks destroying my Naxx-geared holy paladin in no time flat. Affliction and Destro for sure. I don't remember soul link locks doing insane damage but they were really hard to kill. Affliction would just melt me and Destro would blow me up. I dreaded having either of...

    Titan Quest

    If they fixed being able to move inventory items back and forth with shift click I would consider playing Titan Quest again. I just can't stand spending more time on inventory management than actually playing the game.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    I wouldn't mind if this movie was five hours.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I wish I could play when this comes out but real life is kinda in the way now. I will have to be happy watching the occasional video on Warcraftmovies. It wouldn't be the same anyway, with all the knowledge that I have now. It was special because it was all new back in the day.

    The progressive rock thread

    Wow Ayreon sounds really good so far. It's probably going to lead to me finding other bands too (Circus Maximus already). Can't wait to actually listen to more of them.

    Stellaris

    You should have the option to play on an older version if you don't like the updates. I agree that they do eventually end up with way too many mechanics in their games. That's why I don't buy many expansions, just the "best" ones. That way you get the good stuff without worrying about all the...

    Grim Dawn

    I was reading about the new expansion and I'm surprised they aren't increasing the max level but I guess it sorta makes sense. So all the gear you already have for high level builds will still be relevant. Looking forward to playing Oathkeepers too.

    Stellaris

    I really like all the new buildings and mechanics but I find that I spend a lot more time paused while I make decisions on what building to build. I guess it's not any worse than how it was before, just more decision making. I do think the micromanagement is still about the same amount as before...

    Grim Dawn

    Are shrine locations random or set? I'm just curious what happens if you miss one. And how does the scaling work in this game? It seems like dungeons scale with you but the outside world doesn't? I was just reading about the new expansion and having a paladin type class will be sweet. They...

    Grim Dawn

    Just bought this game on the Halloween Steam sale. I had just recently found Titan Quest, which while a great game, some of the little things like inventory management, no 2h weapons and few pieces of gear for your character really bugged me. Grim Dawn is everything Titan Quest was lacking...

    Titan Quest

    Bumping this thread because I just got Titan Quest about a week ago. I haven't been pulled into a game this much in a while. I'm playing a conqueror and am in act 3 epic and the game is getting a lot harder. It is super fun though. I just randomly saw it on sale on steam and picked it up for $4...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    Gotcha. I suppose a few people watching HD movies at the same time could chew through some bandwidth pretty quick. Also, is there really any difference in performance between using wireless internet and a physical cable? This post is making me sound like I've been living in the stone age...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    Long story, but I will soon be looking to get internet service. I don't think I need anything crazy. I will mostly use it for watching some YouTube and playing some online games like Diablo 3, WoW, etc. I see everyone here talking about gigabit service but what do you need that fast of service...

    Path of Exile

    I'm looking to start playing either Path of Exile or Diablo 3 again (I played a little of both a few years ago). Just curious what everyone's thoughts are on which one is a better play these days. I know D3 has the Blizzard "polish" but I've heard Path of Exile has gotten lots of nice updates...

    A Song of Ice and Fire - Book Spoilers Within

    Sorry to bump this but it's been a good year since I checked this thread and there still isn't anything new to report lol. So sad. I'm guessing WoW won't be out until at least 2019, if ever.

    Stellaris

    Finally bought this game a few days ago when it was on sale. There's definitely a ton that the tutorials don't cover but the wiki covers everything really well. Anyway, I'm really enjoying it a lot. I was totally burnt out on space 4x games but I gave this a shot because of my enjoyment of EU4...

    Sounds like a winner! Thanks.

    Stellaris

    So I'm interested in possibly picking up this game but I have a couple questions: Is this game closer to EU4 or your run of the mill 4x space game? I'm mostly interested because it's by the same people as EU4. Is combat micromanaged by the player or is it closer to EU4 combat? I like the...

    Desktop Computers

    Well I somehow talked my wife into letting me buy a gaming desktop. I'm gonna build my own after all since I wanted to pick all the parts. It's gonna be way overkill for a while but it should hopefully be future-proof for quite a few years. i7-7700 GTX 1070 16gb Corsair Vengeance LPX And a...

    Desktop Computers

    I'm considering buying a gaming desktop. A couple questions: -I would love to avoid assembling myself but I can if I need to. Is the markup on fully assembled machines crazy? I haven't shopped around much yet at all to compare prices. -If the markup isn't crazy where is a good site to shop for...

    That actually makes a lot of sense. Mountain biking isn't particularly cheap itself, which is my other go-to hobby.

    Board Games

    I love board games way more than anyone I know but I would never spend that much money on a game. I guess it's mostly because I'm not into miniatures games?

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I like some mystery so I'm finding the unknowns really fun so far. I am looking forward to the world being opened up some more though.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I just started reading this (I'm almost halfway through book 1) and I am loving it. The magic is awesome and I'm loving Erikson's writing in general. Crokus' first scene blew me away, so awesome. Lots of the reviews I read before starting said the first book is the hardest to get through so I...

    Hearthstone

    Seems like it will be similar to Zombie Chow. Better in some situations, worse in some.

    Factorio

    I dunno, I actually thought Bob's mods was a little too complex for me. I would like something in between vanilla and Bob's mods.

    Board Games

    I play EH solo and games where I control only two investigators usually last 1.5-2 hours. I prefer playing with four though and those have ranged from 2-3.5 hours. It's the most fun with 3 or 4 investigators I think. Any more and the games do take too long. It also would depend a lot on how...

    Sounds like you could check out Eldritch Horror. It's basically Pandemic on steroids, fighting Lovecraft gods instead of diseases. And speaking of Eldritch Horror, a new expansion was just announced. The Dreamlands

    Yeah I just picked up Eldritch Horror and although it is heavier if you don't have much of a gaming background, it is really fun. You can adjust the difficulty easily from quite easy to nearly impossible.
