The movie is solid. Of course, Ryan Reynold's performance is responsible for probably 75% of that, but Justice Smith plays off him really well too, it's sort of a classic straight man/goofy man pair which is never tiresome when done well (and I think it is in this movie). Great movie to take...

All of those things came way after when they swung too wide and missed everyone (aka update 1.0); ArcheAge was dead long before equalized vehicle speeds and P2W.

We need to take the "massive" out of MMORPG. We need to build games and worlds to a more modest scale. Instead of trying to catch everybody and their sister with catch-all gameplay elements, focus on elements that will appeal to the niche of gamers that like to play one game for long periods of...

The description for Gilgamesh is revolting. It hasn't been the raid server since 2.5, before the massive influx of server trannies. Yeah the clear rates here are still pretty good but the majority of the server are bads pretending they're good at the game.

I wouldn't be disappointed if those leaks turned out to be true, though.

Tell us the hookers and blow stories!

"OT" in XIV just means tanky DPS, and sometimes you eat a tank buster. It's very rare that the OT actually needs to tank something.

Oh right, I forgot about ultimate.

What if I told you that Japan hasn't had any relevant world firsts in years? In fact, for the past few tiers, they weren't even in the top 3. This has more to do with culture and ego than it does meta. In Japan, you are expected to better yourself if the group is underperforming; it is...

Grit is on the GCD which is why I absolutely hate clicking it for mitigation. I usually prefer to use TBN + another CD since that's basically the same thing, though I will click Grit on during emergencies. I try to push DPS as a tank because it's just so boring otherwise. (PLD is the most...

DRK has a really solid trash pull rotation IMO. Start with Grit and Blood Price on, use Unleash until you have all the mobs gathered and positioned, then turn off Grit, activate TBN and spam Abyssal Drain, when you get low on MP pop Blood Weapon and Quietus and that will pretty much refill your...

Try Ninja.

They were probably just being a little bitch. As long as the tank is holding aggro, the only thing an undergeared tank means for a healer is that they have to press their 1 button harder.

This is not my experience on Gilgamesh/Aether. The only time I've seen a healer queue better than a tank queue is for 24-man raids.

Getting Warrior to max level will save you a lot of grief for when you need to run dungeons and your friends aren't on.

We could actually have a really decent FoH community in this game if we weren't split across different data centers.

Loving this game, I'm up to the Varnhold chapter now and it's been an absolute blast. Some things I've noticed: -Delay Poison Communal (3rd level Cleric spell) is insane for this campaign. So many creatures that would otherwise annihilate you with ability damage can't do shit while that spell...

There are normal Lalafell voices that don't sound like nails on chalkboard but most people don't use them because... degeneracy.

The MSQ is honestly just too slow-paced to keep my interest now. I used to listen to all the voice acting during cutscenes, but now I just skip as soon as I'm done reading.

Is this game stable enough to give it a go now?

It's an epidemic. These people are a lot more widespread than just Balmung. FFXIV has one of the most degenerate MMORPG communities in history and the keynote has made me happy if for no reason other than schadenfreude. I wish they would unsub over this, but they won't, because they can't go two...

Right, sounds to me like the paper was intended to be nothing but a distraction. Could have had nonsense on it like "Your child was tardy to school on MM/DD." Anything to get her to look down just long enough...

I'm very conflicted about BLU. The class itself is really fun to play but all of the idiotic design shit surrounding it ruins a lot of the fun. Pros: BLU mage style of combat is fun and a nice refresher from strict rotations Being able to choose different moves for different situations is a...

They won't. This same thing happened in Heavensward. Remember Impulse Drive Dragoon for 15+ levels? IMO the only way to start this game as a new player is to buy a level skip potion and then use deep dungeon to level other classes.

For DRK, the class doesn't feel complete until 68. I will always express how absolutely terribad leveling in this game is.

It's easy once you have the knowledge. The mechanics of Provoke and enmity multipliers aren't exactly intuitive.

Gilgamesh here.

Why the hell is that video 13 minutes long? Here's real tanking 101: For generating snap aggro: PLD use Flash, WAR use Overpower, DRK use Unleash. Doesn't matter if it's single target or AoE, these skills have the highest non-combo enmity multipliers. You can pull mob packs with your ranged...

Are you on Aether? Do you want an invite to our cross-world LS?

I resubbed against my better judgment. Do we have a cross-server LS yet? EDIT: Yeah we do, we should get everyone on Aether in here.

The Colts/Cowboys reffing has been nonsense on both sides, but I don't think any of the other games going on right now have as high of stakes.

I ain't a Steelers fan but they got cheated out of a fumble recovery. Classic ref ball.

You gotta reach for higher fruit, man.

This thread has been backwards for the past two days, I swear.

Both of those things sound horrible.

Unless I can NG+ to a different server, why would I ever want to do this?

@Pyros what the hell is New Game +? In an MMO?

Not really. Significantly less relevant than the online features in the first game. Overall, Bravely Second is more difficult than Bravely Default (assuming you are playing as max difficulty) with one exception. The final boss of Bravely Default is significantly more difficult than any of...

Weirdest take I've ever seen. Second has better gameplay and character development than the first. I'd say it's superior to the first in every aspect except the greater plot.
