    Lost Ark Online

    I ran through the prologue for the sorcerer character but didnt do too much past it. It's fun so far and the combat will be a blast I think once muscle memory kicks in and I stop having to think about what Im doing. Having abilities on QWER is pretty standard but also having ASDF being another...

    Lost Ark Online

    I did some reading on the Lost Ark reddit during lunch and there's a thread about the shop and the debate about whether it's p2win or "p2faster". The director of the game claims the shop is p2faster meaning nothing in the shop is exclusive, only you get it earlier/quicker etc. People are...

    I won't be able to fire it up until I get in from work this evening but hearing the p2w stuff is really discouraging. Im not sure why I expected any different, but I guess Ill see how bad it is before deciding how much time to sink into a game I cant read.

    The really mixed reviews made me hesitant to drop cash on it but I havent refunded a game on steam in a while so I figured why not. Ran into immediate problems with my ultrawide monitor resolution settings (game just fills the width and allows the top/bottom of the viewable area to run off the...

    King's Raid

    Kara is my next hero that I plan to work up (hit Trans2 today, aiming for 3 by Friday and have her 1* UW already). I do love Lewisia but Kara seems to be an upgrade in every way. Lorraine or Laudia will be after Kara, just not sure which yet. I only snagged Laudia because I ended up with her UW...

    King's Raid

    I need to finish my Artemia. I've spread myself pretty thin with heroes, I have a large number of them but very few are to the point of realizing their full potential. Im stuck on the last story fight of Chapter 8 and I get some random idea in my head of what will help me clear it so I dump...

    King's Raid

    I have her base UW and ended up with both her UT's from a few of the 10+1 summons I did, so aside from the questionable gear I have on her mine's in above average shape I guess. I put her in two pieces of Lava gear at first and 2 BD pieces. The added crit damage from the lava stuff grabbed my...

    King's Raid

    I splurged a bit on that new hero, Seria because her character design is awesome. She's a pretty good unit but very challenging to build properly. She can do good damage (at least in comparison with the rest of my heroes) but she's super super squishy. Her T5 dark ability makes everything she...

    Fallout 76

    The Fallout: New California mod for New Vegas just officially released today if you want more Fallout without whatever all this crap is in Fallout 76. I'd actually never heard of it until today but it looks pretty impressive. I may give it a try when I finish AC: Odyssey.

    I got the google stream invite yesterday but have already been playing the game via steam/uplay. I bought the flappy pegasus that wont die when Im too lazy to get off the horse before cliff diving but it didnt appear on my steam account when I fired it up. Guess they are separate. Boo.

    I saw a post on reddit where that Dyer dude did 42 of the 5k lapis pulls while trying for the Halloween unit STMRs and only got 4 on-banner rainbows (10 total rainbows) across all those pulls. The rates have got to be ridiculous. Dunno if there is even a market for it but Im kinda tempted to...

    As much as I want a 7* GLS, I think Im skipping this Halloween event entirely.

    I used Grim Lord Sakura a ton after I got lucky with one last year and really looked forward to trying for her 7* this year but yeah....triple 5* on a limited unit banner is just disgusting. That said the banner is definitely worth pulling a little on for Pirate Jake and iNichol if you're...

    ARPG suggestions for co-op?

    Devilian shut down earlier this year unfortunately or it would be a solid suggestion. I echo Stevo's earlier statement, just go for Diablo 3. The non-season stuff is great. Just play the story together and if you're still hooked when you finish it, there's tons of grinding/progression still...

    News is up for the Halloween banner, my hype has been deflated. Triple 5* banner and a nerf essentially to the bonus percentage from old synergy units. It breaks down: 200%: 7★ Lilith/Lucius 150%: 7★ D. Rain/D. Lasswell/GLS 100%: Lilith/Lucius 75%: D. Rain/D. Lasswell/GLS 50%: WWF/Pirate...

    Hmm, I had no idea that sort of thing unlocked, I guess I completely tuned out if there were instructions on it. After popping on and actually looking for it, it's the tilde key that does it by default. Not sure how fluid that's gonna be in combat, I didnt check to see if it can be remapped but...

    Been playing on the PC for over 40 hours with no major issue, PC controls are fine. My only annoyance is that you're limited to 4 assigned abilities for ranged attacks and 4 for melee (they are mapped to the 1, 2, 3, and 4 buttons by default and auto switch based on whether youre in ranged or...

    After getting pissy with the game in general, I think it's trying hard to kiss up to me. I dipped into my lapis pile and did the 11k step up and came out with 3 Citra's and Ayaka #2. Citra is a weird unit.

    Im playing on the PC, so I cant comment on whether it's different on the XBox version but there's a button on the bottom right of the skill screen to reset your skills for some gold. Loving the game but man Im struggling with money. Im clearly not doing enough bounties.

    I gambled this morning with the free UW ticket they gave us and tried to yolo my way to a 2* weapon for Aselica. I failed :( The reddit and pretend twitter for this game is hilarious though, soooooo much whining and complaining about the "quality" of the free stuff that's given out.

    Ah ok. Ive actually cleared chapter 7 hell along with all hell conquests, I just dont usually burn gold scrolls for them but Ill probably start. Im almost halfway through chapter 8 at this point, Im on the red dragon fight and he's just a bit too much for me at the moment.

    Im sure it will be increasing as you go, but i doubt it'd get too out of hand. Teach me the ways of getting hundreds of millions of gold per day :P I was literally down to 5k over the weekend. The royal vault only takes me so far (I can go as far as floor 45 atm)

    Gear swapping would be awesome. I was just commenting this morning to a friend how annoying it is to have to strip gear off one wizard to put it on another when I go from something like guild bosses to conquest. The game seems pretty tame in its monetization so far so I wouldnt expect it to be...

    I think Ao meant how the game has different inventories for equipment, materials, abilities, and items. Each inventory with its own max capacity that has to be upgraded separately with vouchers or lapis. Although your statement isnt any less true, equipment sets are long overdue imo. I'd love to...

    So how grindy does the game get? I keep reading a lot about how the grind has been inflated to encourage buying the exp booster, etc. Im tempted to pick this up because I love the setting but reading that in multiple places has me hesitating a bit.

    I went the cheat engine route to add some exp to a custom character to get it caught up and fudge some gold into the coffers. I'm far from well versed with cheat engine but if I figured it out, pretty much anyone here should be able to. Half assed instructions:

    A buddy at work (the dude who has the notoriously bad FFBE luck) dragged me into trying King's Raid a week or two back. It was a serious shock to the system to see a game that wasn't so predatory with it's monetization tactics.
