    Tales of Maj'Eyal

    Speaking about sniping, can you still get oneshot (or atleast ending up close to death) by offscreen bosses/monsters? That shit made me so mad the last time I played the game. Also, what's a good beginner class/race combo these days; my old account is probably gone now but I remember alchemist...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    Yeah I'm pretty sure I'm going to play this, but why the fuck is the Dunedain also a Ringwraith, fighting against Sauron. And the orcs sound too much like "OI M8 U HAVIN A GIGGLE?", can't take them serious at all.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I don't know how you got the impression I'm coming up with excuses, I just said they suck what they're doing. I merely said there MIGHT be someone in this team who's all fired up for his work, but this does not mean he's actually good at it. So yes, they really do need a reality check. Cause...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I don't even think there's a whole lot of shady intentions behind it, it's just that lots of people (especially in leading positions) are terrible at their job. After they've all been fired from their previous positions, they only have themselves to rely own. Turns out, they're just not very...

    Please stop it, he is absolutely right. If you're a craftsman and walk into a bank, throwing a hastly scribbled page at them which reads "JOHN. A. DUMBFUCKS BSUINESS PLAN LOL" and tell them you don't know how this works, they'll show you the door. I fail to see how this is any different...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Kickstarter thinks otherwise: "We've already started development of Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen, but we need your help. The money raised here on Kickstarter will be used to hire additional employees and bring this project to completion." Ok, the FAQ further down then comes around with a...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I feel like I'm missing something here. Shadowrun Returns pulled in two million dollars and it felt like little more than a beefed-up flashgame. But somehow Brad and his team are going to make an MMO (of all the genres out there) with 800k? Honestly, this seems completely unbelievable and ludicrous.

    Dark Souls 2

    PC version is not mentioned in the trailer, I thought it would be the leading platform this time around, thanks to DS great success on Steam? Graphics look really shitty to be honest, but what else can you expect from a last-gen console game. I just hope there will be a similar way of tweaking...

    They got this guys, don't worry. The kickstarter looks shitty on purpose, it will help with your immersion is all. The 90's are finally back and I have to fight the urge to wear a jeans jacket.

    Witcher 3

    Don't care about the naysayer, I'm in full hype-mode. CD Projekt will save videogames, that is an indisputible fact. Also, I found combat in the second game to be much improved; the awfully slow UI with it's sitting animation every time you wanted to drink a potion was REALLY annoying though.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Asia (or Japan maybe) would be incredibly easy to pull off, I don't know why Ubisoft is so reluctant to go there. Tokyo was an absolute massive city already in the 18th century so we could get something more interesting than pirate slums or early Boston. Use the european traders to bring in the...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Guild Wars 2 started out similar. "Everything is obtainable ingame, no worries". The question is though, what do they mean by that. Because lately every new armor or weapon skin they come up with is put in the gemstore. Now you can exchange your ingame gold for gems and get it that way but not...

    Boardwalk Empire

    Loved last weeks episode, this weeks one is a bit weird though. Story didn't really go anywhere and they did not follow through at all with the whole 'let's sort it out' angle. Still very enjoyable, the actors just carry that show easily, even if the story's a bit weak in episodes like that...

    The second you can roam freely on the map, do everything you possibly can; laugh at the campaign when it tries to show you what a fort is when you've taken down every single one of them already.

    Homeland

    Saul will use Brody to assassinate the Senator and take the throne for himself. The wife lover (whatever his name is) makes no sense to me, as if Saul would use the wives laptop to do his super secret CIA work with, or share details about ongoing operations with her.

    X:Rebirth

    This still sounds like an enormous clusterfuck to be honest. Can't your ships trade on their own anymore, what has been happened to sector/universe traders? What about the trade interface you posted, I was under the impression you can't actually complete a trade from that screen alone; is it...

    That 'Worth a buy?' video made me sad. I thought I'd just buy in two months time, get it cheaper then and it would have a bunch of patches out. But this just seems completely awful and probably beyond saving.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Enjoying it so far, but oh boy is the PC performance a mixed bag, it's really all over the place. Just got the Cove and upgraded it with some stores etc. mostly convenience things so far. Is there a way to get a steady income? I'm always low on cash/metal, do I get some npc controlled pirate...

    X:Rebirth

    Felt burned on Rome II, so I haven't picked this up yet, even though I really want to. One of the things I read which greatly annoy me, is that the UI seems to be somewhat worse than the already terrible one in the previous games. Like double-clicking on checkboxes, seemingly random placement of...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Yeah I played that one, but Morrigan mostly made some pretty obscure hints at what Flemeth might be doing. Also, it's not really canon, so bleh. Only one upset here seems to be you.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    I don't remember the Flemeth/Blight connection at all, what did she say about that? Are you gay mate? The tamed Morrigan is the best thing ever, I'd go a long way to hear more of "your desire?". With that said, the game will be a wreck, somewhat irritating to see people get excited in this...

    I'm still amazed at how shitty Jacks plan is, in regards to the IRA. They bombed the MCs place when he said "hey look, we have to get out of guns, please do your business with these people instead; thank you and goodbye". Now he wants to give up IRAs USA branch to the cops and even lump in the...

    Guild Wars 2

    This patch (and the previous balance one) is alot of bullshit and also a prime example why it's terrible to balance skills for pvp and pve. All of these changes are pvp influenced, yet they will affect classes negatively in pve. Also, just waoh at this elementalist trait, as if they would need...

    Guild Wars 2

    Thief is the best single target dps, but there is absolutely no room for error at all. Be prepared to be frustrated if you're going for a thief, especially in pugs. Warrior is overall much easier and not far behind in terms of damage, so I would advise you to go for that. It's the better class...

    The WvW league is in full swing and server transfers are still fucking it up. That 'transfer once a week" restriciton is nowhere near enough; some drama occurs on a server and all of a sudden it's left crippled because lots of people join the bandwagon and transfer to the next best thing...

    Homeland

    From the preview we got at the end of the last episode it seems like Brody will be turned, AGAIN. This guy basically has some kind of agenda radio built inside of him by now, you turn a few buttons so he catches your frequency and voila; you got your own 'terrorist to go'.

    Forward/UP in Twilight Arbor is gone (and replaced with the new path) and personally I don't mind that, because fuck spiders. The new path can be pretty easy, I actually did it in a group of 4 with only 1 guy knowing what's what. But it is an absolute pug-stomp, you really have to coordinate...

    Well I'm definitely interested in the SteamOS. But I'm not excited until the big publishers are saying something about it, Source games aren't the only thing out there and if you don't give a damn about Left4Dead, it's a pretty barren situation.

    Your best raid or mass pvp experience across the genre?

    None of you casuals ever pvp'd on Siege Perilous in UO? Easily the best times I've ever had in an mmo and the only time I embraced some RP faggotry, roaming the woods with the Blackoaks; fighting orcs and crazy asians on lamas. I need a time machine for my evenings, fuck it.
