    Dying Light 2

    Looks like random audio/visual bugs for the most part from peeking at streams. I have 25 of the next 30 traveling so can't even play at the moment so hopefully they patch it up solidly by that time.

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    Dreamscaper was added today as a nice surprise. Just put about 5 hours into it. Enjoying the variety of weapons/skills.

    Lost Ark Online

    Such a brave statement. I know as soon as I play as a female pixel I'm going to chop my dick off and start applying for off broadway work. But what can you do when MMO choices are so limited.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Yeah you need a mod for damage meters. I think I'm bored already at around 100 hours in. Put in around a dozen or so hunts with a few others weapons to see if I could change it up, but the overall lack of difficulty mixed with boring maps that aren't really exciting to roam around exploring...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    I played the last time in Aug last year. The game fills the same ARPG itch that D3 does for me. Play for 2-3 days, get bored and move on. I do love the aesthetic though. If Last Epoch + Wolcen artists could combine I'd be down.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I tried out HH while teaching my friend how to play the other day and it's neat I guess. I noticed on a bunch of fights with same positioning as I use with hammer it felt like the HH animations put you in areas to avoid chip damage or outright avoid the slight bumps that various monsters do...

    If you have a high end PC the choice is always PC.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    If you keep up your gear to not get 1 shot you basically won't cart at all if experienced and not dicking around tbh. Not neccessarily a bad thing though as it'll make the transition to learning new weapons a lot less painful. About to hit HR50 and finished my hammer set for the time being...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Nah it's just an ability without any sort of consumable. Like 2nd or 3rd in the action bar. Only thing that's annoying is forgetting to hit it before I take out my weapon =D

    Monster Hunter Rise

    If I was speedrunning I wouldn't even use a buddy. Don't want to mess with monster interaction by having them steal aggro. Dog is pretty solid for status though tbh. The umbrella + blitz scroll is a lot of build up, but it's "useless" in a game where the currency is monster parts and trying...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    It's like a 5 minute part of a 25+ hour game. You'll live my man.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Think I'm good to go already as I did quite a bit of fishing early on. Got 2 of the left and 1 of the right that I can swap as needed. All run status/knockout/crit. Usually get 2x sleeps per fight between weapon status/endemic life and then the buffs, heals and 2x shock traps. Pilfer and the...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I have spent 50 hours playing this and only today thought about being able to use two palicos for double pilfer <_< It's pretty hot. Tons of buffs, heals, traps and ofc pilfer.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Yeah lose all giant monster events/rampage etc. So tedious especially solo. I like the wirebug solely based on it making hammer a bit more friendly on big monsters, but feel it makes fights trivial even with monsters in Rise seemingly being more dangerous. I'm currently still wearing trash...

    Dying Light 2

    By the time I get to play this they could delay it a year and I wouldn't notice. But I guess the sooner it releases the sooner it goes on steam sale =O

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    MS has been sitting on like 165 billion in cash and ATVI is roughly 2% of their size. ATVI make billions per year even if they do nothing which has basically been the last 5 years+. If they gut the existing work culture and rebuild they have a slew of franchises that people will pour cash...

    I believe the last one is HR100. Apex rampage quickest way to level allegedly.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I got like 500k at HR6. Selling off cash drops, pelico gathering/pilfering and looting a gold egg every 5 hunts etc. Probably have another couple hundred k in low rank parts that aren't needed too that I'll sell eventually. I am methodically doing every hunt/quest though which probably helps.

    Nailed it. Ok pretty sold on the new stuff. Going to be another multi hundred hour game easily =]

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I got up to 5 star village last night. Enjoying it overall, but the amount of monster parts you get from riding is crazy. I think I ended up with around 12 lootable parts in one area before I had even killed a monster. The new monsters are pretty neat, but the rampage tower defense stuff is...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    That is why I did a fresh PC run of world this weekend through the story =D IG looks like you could be fucking around in the air forever with it and the wire mechanic. It's probably just excitement over new game but I might actually branch out of my play style once I hammer smash the story...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    LS / Right Button on top of controller. Hammer will always be my #1 favorite and played over everything even if it's not the best and it takes a couple minutes longer than some speed clearing zoomer bis weapon.

    The employee tbh. You're not setting yourself up for any sort of long term success by acquiescing to having wage middlemen and they typically do not fill full time employment. That person is clearly not shooting for the typical day laborer position and wants some subset of tech so a recruiter...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I beat him on my second phase transition by jumping away from him constantly until he did a lightning move which you can counter and chunks him for like >1/4 of his health. Repeat as needed. If I replayed I bet I could just straight up parry god him but I didn't realize how broken parry...

    You can, but it shouldn't need it if you are running a modern OS. It should connect automatically wirelessly or at worst buy a $10-15 dongle which hasn't mattered since xbox one or earlier afaik.

    He could probably find a job at any of the hundreds of marketing/seo companies that do work for small-medium sized businesses with the skills gained while streaming, but he is likely a manchild as booze says and has no idea how to market himself and is applying to places too big for his...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Ok broke down and jumped in the demo. Hammer runs 2 color system now? Looks like yellow is mostly never going to be used outside of spin into big bang? Also whats with the added swing to standard big bang combo >_>

    Monster Hunter Rise

    From brief glance at the reddit sub it seems that the monster riding is OP as shit and removes the threat of fighting multiple monsters as it's just a welcome DPS addition.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I waste more time getting lost/backtracking in these games than learning bosses, but I still love the genre in bingey doses. Sekiro was probably the best in terms of difficulty -> progression -> game length for me personally as it felt closer to a "normal" single player RPG just on the hardest...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I haven't tried the demo and don't plan on it, but I put about 20 hours into World this week to kick off the rust. Got 2 friends who have never touched a MH that are going to play so it should be interesting =D Is the coop still the typical garbage where partying is awful if everyone hasn't...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    It Takes Two took a day or so to get fixed when it was added to Gamepass as well. Wouldn't bother if you are running into issues until tomorrow or later or just install directly through EA.

    Star Ocean: The Divine Force

    Looks like Tales of Arise and it's getting a PC port so a definite buy. Even better if it ends up on Gamepass =O Available on PS4 (COMING 2022) PS5 (COMING 2022) Xbox Series X (COMING 2022) Xbox One (COMING 2022) PC (COMING 2022)

    Just sits. I'm about 2.5-3' away when sitting at desk. Didn't take long to get used to using for work as it just replaced running 3 monitors due to extra real estate. I use it for everything as well kb/m gaming, controller gaming, consoles, movies, tv etc. to the point where I don't bother w/...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I never had a single cop port on me my entire playthrough (PC). I even started a war and killed about 40 of them before I got bored and just yeeted off into the sunset. I wished that they were more aggressive tbh. https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-oled48c1pub-oled-4k-tv Join us.

    Same. I took it off my steam wishlist once I heard the rumors. I've never played it originally so add another game on the pile this year =D
