I fucking should but I don't. Some stupid gotta be completionist autism at play. Most of the time it's a short little thing and we're on to the story. The last time I hit one that was awful was I think an anniversary edition of Earth Abides. Something about anniversary rereleases gets the author...

Gave Red Storm (edit) Rising a shot having never read a Tom Clancy novel before. It was good! I just started Rambo by David Morrell. I'd heard the book was bananas. The audiobook begins with an introduction from the author where he starts talking about the inspiration (whatever), how it became...

You don't have to spend your first ascendancy points making yourself weaker, no.

Success with weapon upgrades changes the game entirely during your initial run through the acts. One fortuitous drop or craft halves (or better) the amount of buttons you need to press to make things die. If you're unlucky things are a slog until RNG smooths back out.

You wish you were still this pure.

The kindest portrayal of DeForest Kelly ever. unrelated - Looking for ways to introduce noise that fucks with AI is a neat idea.

That bottom part looks like where the anti-tamper device (mousetrap) goes. Good thing there either wasn't one or it corroded away over the years. unrelated -

Got him down, Abyssal area in Act 3, check it out, get gangbanged, one try only. You know what, that's okay GGG. I just think there's a fundamental disconnect with the experience you're trying to provide with PoE2 and what I consider to be a good time. Path of Exile 1 is my chill out game...

Act 2 boss can continue to go fuck himself. Takes way too fucking long and if you screw up it's right back to the beginning.

Getting made to feel like a real potato trying to interact with this weapon swap skill point system after ascending to Witch Hunter and taking the 100 point node.

Start Merc (believing 100 weapon swap points is ba-roken), swap bows because the early crossbow skills are donkey butter, every time I go to use an uncut skill gem the default menu is crossbow. I'm not wielding one. I don't have one in my weapon swap. None of my equipped skills are crossbow...

Act 1 on a league start is dreadful.

It's what I get for not having my shit together but ooooof.

Couple of these so far, oof

I know it got buffed as part of 0.2 but does enough loot now drop in the campaign to need a filter?

I run in to it less now that they shrunk how many people can idle in each Rogue Harbor in PoE1 but I still fucking hate that people get to pay money to be annoying and I just have to suck it up.

No complaints if sprinting is safer to use than they presented It just looks so brutal in the trailer

I've popped in on a few different streamers practicing league starts and it's one person after another walking around at base movement speed doing Lightning Arrow Lightning Rod. The time it takes to get a character online doing what you want to be doing and feeling alright in the process is way...

Can you do something like tree one, all crossbow stuff (for shooting) and then tree two, all grenade stuff (for nading) and that way each thing is not polluted by any tree points spent on the other?

Trish Stratus Yes yes we all would I'm not saying that but whoever thought this was the direction to take for a photo shoot with a 50 year old woman didn't do her any favors

I suspect that they're starting this out as absolutely bare bones as possible to give themselves the best chance at a smooth launch. They're letting anyone play for free for the weekend so you really would prefer not to slip on a pile of your own vomit with extra eyes on the product. The...

1-3 hours before launch. Really.

Is it both of the original films where the framing device is a reporter talking to an old man claiming to be Billy the Kid? I can't remember if that's just the second one. What you could do is have old Estevez play that character while telling a story about a (fictional) adventure no one knows...

Which is I think going to be the default for most players. Unless you're really in need of something specific that the insta market cannot provide a lot of us are not going to then comb through the old system at all.

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3828185 I didn't look to see if they were selling quad merchant tabs but even if you could buy them not being able to convert existing quads and not being able to bulk list with them is going to lower how much crap is on the exchange. Something...

Without bulk listing or quad tabs or bulk listed quad tabs at launch most people aren't going to be listing mass amounts of garbo.

Hey man Lou Diamond Philips needs the work.

I still remain dubious about asynchronous trade in PoE1 but after running through a league in which I made numerous alts my positioning is softening. Trying to buy gear for characters that were doing rather specific things (extra lucky block Gladiator, Mamba Pathfinder, pile of abyss jewel Light...

In-game sprint footage

I haven't seen the new trilogy nor any of the shows.

For the record I think sprint is going to be a huge improvement with the added bonus of fixing one of the things I hate about dodge roll (time something wrong, slow down on the second half of the animation, get hit by tracking attack from boss) even if it means sometimes when you use it your...

You're not even reading what I type. You're just lumping everyone in with Reddit.

League start Act 2 Juggernaut + boss is reaaaaal dumb also.

They're cool but the road I live on has a little memorial where a geezer pulled out in front of a motorcycle and killed two people. Even going by that spot on a bicycle feels weird.

Alright Blizzard don't do anything (else) too fucking stupid until Summer 2026 and I'm in. Good luck on that.

Saw it once in the theater.

Bitch you saw the video. Jonathan recommended dodge rolling out of danger and then holding that shit down to sprint away. You know a whole lot of people are going to try and sprint in a bad situation and get railed for it. They changed dodge roll a bunch of times because of how little it helped...

I didn't like Club Dread.

It looks like you eat dirt for several seconds (by ARPG standards) if you get tagged so while it may be a skill issue the consequences for said issue are dire. Visual clarity on little projectiles, shit on the ground that does hits and dudes with quick and sometimes off-screen dashes are all...
