    World of Warcraft: Classic

    This is why games need a "vision" and stick to it kinda like EQ did back int he day. Problem with WoW was even from the beginning they were caving to all the people (mostly casual plebs) complaining. And this is what you get in the end, which is today an entirely 100% different game and a...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Many are saying that these Blizz HC servers are dead on arrival because the lag deaths and disconnect deaths will not be able to be appealed. You know they wont be, dead is dead and this will turn off many a people from doing HC on blizz servers. And I think they are right. Some of the bullshit...

    New Lord of the Rings MMO

    Which would not be bad if they actually fucked off to the idea of the stupid territory control and wars. And instead actually focused on some end game PvE content instead. the diehard PvP crowd can usually be pacified with a few PvP battlegrounds and some 3v3.5v5 arena type instance bullshit...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I always liked Ranger and Shaman myself. Yeah I know, ranger, ha ha, but I find the utility of the ranger to be very valuable. Prob not as high of DPS as monk, but the utility rangers bring to the table more than makes up for the loss of deeps.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Depends if you go Hard Core or not. If not its fine, but if going hard core there are other professions that make more sense, like potion crafting and others that actually help with survival. Especially with how the ruleset for that HC mod is set up basically making you solo self fund. On the...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    For ally there is a few chains in dustwallow that are ok and I know horde has some chains there too. I think it gets better in TBC and WOTLK when they add in more quest content there. But WoW is not that hard of a game to grind a few levels in. Its actually kinda cozy to settle down in one area...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Yeah the respawn thing is real, going back to the whitemane days and the huge population. Supposedly they have some respawn system where if there is a lot of peeps around shit respawns real quick. Made places like caves and other areas deathtraps. And those hc servers are packed.

    PVP was fine, im just talking about the whole war/ownership/taxation/defend/attack side of it where only a very few got to experience that side of the game. Oh and couple this with their shitty 3K max people per server bullshit 1990s EQ tech, well, that meant even LESS people would ever do that...

    If they concentrate on PVE and fuck off with their survival and war/ PVP/town ownership bullshit, maybe they can make something OK. I mean PvE in new world was not bad, nor was the combat either. It essentially failed at delivering a solid end game. Combat wise it was one of my favorite mmos for...

    Well that sounds gay as fuck. we were required to have a few fire pots and shit like that but that sounds like a full time job just to parse some bigger numbers no one ever gives a fuck about. Key is to down the bosses and gear the fuck up not to nerd the shit up with spreadsheets and shit, lol...

    IDK man, I never raided classic past Rag, but from memory and @BoozeCube can confirm, we never did anything special save maybe the save vs fire buff for MC, and rag himself. If we had dragon buff we had it, but if we didnt its not like it stopped us from doing MC. I dont even think DM was even a...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    From what I have seen watching some HC type characters, most of the deaths happen from like lv1-20 where the characters are weak as fuck. Most characters from 20-40 get huge ass spikes in power and even survivability too. The challenge itself is only to get to lv 60 which cannot be that...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    They had the season of mastery thing going on last year or so? I rolled on one of them and went to 60 and farmed some AV goodness for a couple of weeks and then I stopped. They were fresh vanilla servers. But who the fuck knows if they will be doing that again.

    We all started with shitty low paying jobs. Gotta work your way up. Even in my career job which is automotive engineering I stated as a co-op making $8.50/hr in like 92' while those around me were making $25-$40. People actually think they will go to college or some trade school or whatever, get...

    Yeah, most of the shit I do myself. Most plumbing issues, hot water heaters, flooring, tile, I mean Ive done it all pretty much, even some electrical shit which I was weary of, but Ive even added circuits in my old house to wire in a finished basement. Only things I will not touch is Hvac...

    Woodwork is def a dying art. Problem also is the price of wood as well. Good shit costs mega bucks, unless you stick with shit like oak or maple, and even that is getting pricey these days. My grandfather was a cabinet maker by trade. And when he retired he made knick knacks and small furniture...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Yeah if you want classic experience and play beyond 60 raiding and other such shit, HC servers are not the play. Pick a side and look up population numbers on the classic servers. Most servers are heavily skewed these days either 99% horde or 99% Ally, so make sure you choose the right one. Also...

    This is why you dont play HC, loool. 40 levels and prob 4-5 days of his life GONE.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Classic itself revitalized this game, along with the 2 expansions along the way for classic. Live was stale already for a long ass time. I tried playing it along the way a few times, but it never stuck for more than a week or two.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    They also need to do like POE, where all of your hard work just does not get deleted, but dumped off to some other server. Imagine spending a week play time or more and get deleted. Fuck that noise.

    So please explain what were missing here. Its literally the bottom of the barrel non skill work. I flipped burgers when I was 15. In the past only teenagers and younger people which needed supplement $$ while going to college worked those jobs. The McDs I woorked at was 95% teenagers and 1 adult...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Yeah, this was a few years ago but there was a bar by my old work that served up bacon burgers, at least 1/4 lb for $4 ea. Fries were extra but if you left that place for $10-$12 you got 2 burgers, fries and a beer. A lot of those dives used food to get people to go there. And they did. Asian...

    KFC is fucking horrible now. IDK if they were always horrible and I just have good memories of it as a kid or it just got bad over the years but the chicken there is fucking bad plus its expensive as shit. Taco Bell is passable but Id rather not im boycotting that place over their absurd prices...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    SO I just learned that this PVE server is like 14K horde and 100 Ally LOOOOOL. There goes wasted 10 hours of my life. I was wondering why the fuck it felt so empty. Checking the list, most of the servers are like this, 90% or more skewed to one side PvP and PvE. Why the fuck even roll on a...

    Need to let this brew a few more years. Then sub for a month or two and binge the shit out of it. Most of the stuff they have is only like a season or less deep.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    The switch handheld is what? Like $200? Prob costs them like $25 to make. A lot easier pill to swallow for a parent to buy their kids rather than a $1000 handheld.

    Chrono Odyssey

    While I do agree that combat is great in BDO, the problem also, along with the predatory BS and the stupid gambling for gear +1s, there is no synergy in any of it revolving around multiplayer. Its essentially a solo game where everyone does their own thing. Most of the "end game" in the combat...
