    Do you think the FF7 remake was good?

    Dune (2020)

    Not sure if it has been talked about yet, but I would expect the movie to be "Hollywoodified" compared to the book. For example, I'll bet that in the movie, Chari becomes Paul's true wife instead of a concubine. Still excited for the movie though, the worm looks totally dope and the delay means...

    Final Fantasy 16

    The 10 year development cycle is a Nomura trademark, and Nomura isn't touching this game. That automatically makes it "probably good."

    Genshin Impact

    I wouldn't call Noelle a "tank," that role doesn't exist in this game. Primarily, Noelle is a healer/defensive support: her E is a damage shield that applies to whoever your active character is. If Noelle is currently benefitting from this shield, her attacks have a 50% chance to heal your...

    Genshin Impact

    Team 1: Diluc, Fischl, Xiangling, Venti. Constant Overload procs plus Venti shenanigans for big AoE damage, and Diluc will put out huge damage due to double Pyro. If survivability becomes an issue, swap out Xiangling for Barbara. Team 2: Bennett, Kaeya, Amber, Noelle. Bennett actually works...

    Genshin Impact

    Dual Pyro comp means Razor and Noelle have a permanent +25% ATK boost and Xiangling/Amber will recharge their ults faster, plus more Overload reactions. This is my ideal Razor-focused team, though swapping Amber out for Bennett could also be really good. This is fairly easy to do with Amber...

    You can also trigger these with Amber's bunny, but not Xianling's panda.

    Genshin Impact

    If you translate the Chinese "source" yourself you will find that all of these leaks are BS. Also, Beidou's elemental skill isn't a "block," it's a damage shield that can absorb up to a set amount of damage. Imagine trying to fake leaks when they can't even get info correct about the current...

    Genshin Impact

    I'm AR28 and any time I've been forced into using the MC, it's been for gimmick quests/battles where stats don't matter. That said the MC is an excellent Anemo user, honestly on par with Venti.

    AMD's new card launch will probably go a similar direction.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    You do realize that if those scalpers don't have their inventory sold and NVidia's supply actually manages to catch up demand, the scalpers will actually be losing money, right? I'm in no rush for my 3080. I'll get it when I get it.

    Fell Seal: Arbiters Mark

    Yep, the consensus is that the story is extremely forgettable, uninteresting, and cliche, but it has the best gameplay out of any Tactics-esque game.

    Anyone have any news on EVGA preorders?

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    I might start skipping the tests. The game is pretty bare bones right now and I really don't want to spend my free time looking for their bugs.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Genshin Impact could be fun. I like co-op open world ARPGs.

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    Currently too difficult to compare them, as Fractured is really early in alpha and pretty barren of features. I will say that I like the skill system much more, it's much more modern than Aria and allows you to create some really creative builds. Fractured is worse. Pathing is asanine, the...

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    Unsure if talents are working properly right now. The "ignore 40% magic resist" sounds absolutely busted but it's definitely not working on normal mobs.

    Lord of the Rings Online

    How is it for a group of 2? My brother and I might try to duo some stuff. We also might bring some other people into it but they wouldn't be as dedicated as us, is there a good mentor system for grouping with lower leveled players?

    Ashes of Creation

    Swiftstone (Sorc/Defense/Shadow) was the unsung hero of small group PvP. I had damage, peel, mobility, disengage... I wasn't necessarily the best at anything but if the enemy team tried to focus me down I could absorb hits and if they didn't, I was still a threat with damage and CC. 1v1 though...

    Ashes of Creation

    Exactly this. I'm willing to believe that he can be a different kind of dev than he is a player, but I also recognize that he 100% has biases about who "should" be on top in games. The funniest thing is that his zerg guild wasn't even the largest in ArcheAge, that title goes to Oran'Thul...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Maybe it's more fun if you're one of the people doing that, but if you're a lowbie just trying to get EXP, you're either mindlessly grinding mobs for hours upon hours or mindlessly autofollowing the NM train for hours upon hours. In both situations there is no brain input required and nothing...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    There was nothing fun about Eureka, ever. No purpose to exploration, no incentive to form small groups and kill mobs, no amount of thought required whatsoever - just bot up and kill NMs in the train. The arsenal dungeon sounded interesting but I was not willing to suffer through the hours upon...

    She should be allowed to stand her ground and beat the shit out of him or even kill him if he's that dangerous. She might just be 110 pounds but she could still get something done with mace to the eyes and metal knuckles assuming the dude stalking her is some fedora neckbeard LARPer. But this...

    Fractured - The Dynamic MMO

    At first I was excited to see that the post count in this thread doubled... then I realized it's because a shillpost got merged 🙄 Anyways, I'm hoping to get some time in the new alpha test this weekend to check out the talent system. Not sure about the city building though, haven't heard...

    Gotta agree with these, Twitch chat makes everything better. The streamers themselves can be hit-or-miss.

    Depends on the state. In California, if a private person is recorded/broadcast without their consent, they can sue for infringement of their right of publicity, which is more or less the right to publicize your own image however you see fit. You can argue that being used in a recording/broadcast...
