    Bioware's "Anthem"

    The swim stuff is odd when you intially get in the water its just totally awol out of control but once you start moving its doable.

    Zulu has gobs of trash and the g,huun fight for most of the raid is mass trash clearing till orb guys do their thing

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The azerite change is not much of a change for the bulk of the player base because only edge case people ever found themselves in a situation where it would effect them. The master looter change was a lot more noticable because a fair amount of people do end of expansion carry raids so they can...

    Just like EQ was great for its time because it had nothing to compare it with then wow came along and polished what EQ did to a high shine. Classic wow was an amazing upgrade over eq1 but shit has moved on a long way and people just are not going to put up with what we did in wow classic any...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    On one of the dev streams it sounded like they were doing a lot of work on mouse keyboard controls for the PC about how its dead zone and resetting works so hopefully some of the jankiness was the stuff they knew about that there are already fixes on the way for.

    Yup kul'tirans unlike all the other allied race are an actual full new race new skeleton and the whole kit and kaboodle. That is a LOT more work than the other allied races which were just some minor texture changes/voice overs customization options and a mount. But new body rig requires a LOT...

    only purple quality ones give residium it looks like. The new 355 wq ones are now listed as blue. I was able to get residium from blowing up existing purple 375 azerite stuff from before the patch.

    I think people who switch back to classic with rose tinted goggles on will get a rude awakening. The classic talent trees were a fucking mess and the classes rotations were a lot more simplified than even what we currently see. I think a lot of people think they want classic but when they go...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Especially when it involves a studio that has made some crazy popular games while at the same time paying their employees like shit. The fact they don't get poached more heavily from is really the only surprising thing.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    Hehe yup it gets very highlander eventually one big group is the last group standing and nobody else can do anything and then that group eats itself. This is one reason for the crow fall design of finite "shard" lifespans so you can intentionally flip the tables after a certain time so there...

    Yes the last time I hopped in its deffinately more possible to be more fully healer or tank. Its still not wow like but if you have a team built to work together it looks at least a bit less spastic. That said most of the times in any kind of random/semi random fractal/dungeon its yakkity sax...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I think one thing to note is CD projekt pay their staff pretty badly. I think if a bigger player really wants to poach their talent they are ripe for that to happen.

    I would agree on GW2 dungeons being really weird with lack of tanking. Some of them are interesting but all of them feel like I should be playing yakkity sax at max volume as the sound track for them given the way everybody is scampering around like madmen. GW2 does show the downsides of not...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    If you are burned out on wow take a break. GW2 is a really good option as is the FF mmo. GW2 is my go to burn out MMO as the nice thing there once you get to max level not a lot of gear you are chasing after just side grades for different builds or things you want to try. Its pretty as hell and...

    Haha I had a random blue upgrade last night as well 375 gloves puttering around doing stuff. Alliance was actually semi competent in pvp yesterday as well. I think some of the better players must have popped back on to start the new season. One thing to note although the ceiling has raised on...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    There were a lot of things to bitch about launch destiny and destiny 2 but it was one of the crispest feeling shooter games. The guns looked sounded and felt and aimed like you expect them to. Its amazing how many games don't get it quite right so that when one does like destiny its very noticeable.

    Also save island ap item quests till 22nd. I have like 11 of them ready to go.

    One thing to note is invasions give a shitton of rep doing them and you can ding your 7th legion or honor bound reps like crazy. Each paragon box is around 5k gold 500 resources and 20 warfront resources. Doing invasions and normal stuff has made me 80k gold since 8.1

    There is a penalty when you win you get a blue or green bonus azerite crystal thing and you don't get that on a loss. The penalty is pretty minor I have still gotten pets and transmog stuff on a loss. Hell before 8.1 the hard core island grinders recommended just ignoring losses it was more...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    One thing to note is a loss on an island does not mean much of anything. You still get progress for your weekly to match how well you did so if you just barely lose there is almost no difference. Basically you just lose out on a tiny bit of azerite that is your end of match victory bonus. So...

    They also can give you island reward options. I got the cold light murloc pet which basically was not dropping for a long time at all and I know somebody who got one of the mounts. So for the small time it takes its worth doing at least enough to bang out your once per week thing.

    The Passage (Fox)

    This is what was confusing me their only real criteria was pick a kid without a family nothing else was mentioned. It seems the forces they were sending in were more because the guy guarding the girl was a threat but they seemed so focused on the girl it was odd. I am pretty sure you could go to...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Given some of what they said I would be surprised if this is not exactly what they do for the necklace. Probably not done spec by spec like legion but class by class or role by role and then just either auto unlock the azerite armor or have the unlock requirements super low so mainly it is just...

    Dune (2020)

    When the david lynch version literally gave you a hand out glossary of terms when you went to see it in the theaters I think dune may just be one of those movies that never fully works. If you are going to do it a TV mini series or netflix mini series probably makes a lot better sense than...

    Yup the XP stuff pretty much fixed leveling speed and you still have the advantage of being able to pick which expansions you want to level through between cata and wod.

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    The space combat stuff is really well done and fun the ground combat is fun if arcady. They mostly fixed the progression wackass stuff that was wrong in the begining but the problem is all that took too long and they lost a lot of their player base.

    Most of those port items wind up mostly being useful once the expansion is over and your main hearth is no longer tied to that city any more. But that ring is basically the last thing I would buy as I am not chasing the dragon Ilevel wise just going with the mounts for now and then pick up the...

    I figured this was coming it is just like all the other various expansion port to home town rings/trinkets/necklaces they have done.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The 7th legion paragon rep gives I think 20 of those per time you do it. Given how many things give 7th legion rep I have gotten like 5 of those boxes so far. A lot of it is just using the app to keep any rep quests rolling. The paragon chests also pump out a bunch of war resources so its kind...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think if in 8.2 they give the necklace itself an power tree like the artifact even if not as large as what the artifact had with an extra active power for casters/dps/tanks it could be pretty simple to add without having to make it unique for every spec but still something permanent for the...

    The problem in WOD all there was to do was random dogshit rep grinds and apexis acquisitions and they somehow forgot to tie any useful rewards to doing any of that. At least in BFA the emmisary stuff is at least ilevel appropriate for what you are doing and the paragon stuff is pretty damn solid...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I would agree WOD was way bigger of a train wreck than BFA is. BFA at least has end game stuff to do and things for ever pretty casual people to get some gear upgrades via PVP or the new invasions or warfronts. WOD once you hit max level other than raiding there was fuck all to do. It killed my...

    Luther

    I have not seen the latest season but given how shitty Luther is treated by just about everybody in that police department it is always funny when they lure him back. When the psychopath lady was basically his one real friend and basically right to tell him all the people around him were shit...

    Well given the whole story is mostly about one woman overcoming her depression and learning to trust people and connect with the world again Tom being basically "perfect" was necessary. He is an ideal to show her there are people worthy of love and trust and somebody to call her on her BS like...
