    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Funny thing is ~~ Haven't had FB for years, all my online interactions are done via Gift Cards(Steam, don't use Amazon all that much *shrug*), the only accounts that have my CC info are SE, for FF14(well DB too but that account has been closed for years.) Thinking about it now it's kinda...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Tell that to Epic, they can't even get there security working correctly, don't even get me started on the No Cart feature they built into that garbage pile..

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    Not blind .. color blind there is a difference, if you want your game too be enjoyable for everyone that wants too play, there are some things you shouldn't mess with, forcing gamma too 0, or like I said "pitching" everything to black, is one of the stupidest ideas and becomes a horrid handicap...

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    As someone who has gotten progressively more color blind over the years, I find the whole "hard core" darkness to be really badly played out, a good percentage of designers really don't care that a lot of players(You would be amazed how many people are actually color blind.) can't see shit when...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    As was already said, it is different designing a model having only 1 look vs a model that has multiple sets of armor/weapons/animations etc etc..(And 14's Engine > 12s engine(which was basically built off the FFXI engine) Human 4 life , down with the Tarutaru clones.... PS. Phoenix looks...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I've played thru this version.. Some interesting changes they made to the game over all, Diamond Weapon is no joke in this version. Makes the game a lot of fun if you are tired of the normal easy mode.

    They keep changing things literally til the last day that the game servers need the newly built codebase, I bet tons more tweaks have already happened vs what they announced today, these "lists" are not final in anyway.

    Stack freezes finally only have been asking for it for a couple years now, Sam changes seem good, as well as Summoner changes(yay Phoenix) only jobs I care about only jobs I have at 70.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Lately it's gotten worse, but unlike MS Sony doesn't need to release a upgrade every year too try and keep up, I would say that Sony has done pretty good with the hardware for its overall age, and Navi is looking really good for them into the future.(still waiting too see what "specs" Navi will...

    Both the MMO's have great crafting systems.... albiet 11's is like nails on a chalkboard 80% of the time, nothing like having too check day of the week, moon cycle, and the times for enhanced crafts..

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (From Software)

    The big issue is just the total lack of "builds", it's not a great game like DS/Bloodborne but its a nice break from the normal recipe of FROM games..

    The problem is driver support AMD's drivers have never been that great, it's like they want too gimp there video cards all the time. But Navi and there RTX stuff is looking pretty good, next gen consoles are gonna have some pretty fun toys too play around with.

    Persona 5

    My guess would be the velvet room from 3, they have streamlined the persona creation process 1000 x over even when comparing it too P4:Golden, P5's velvet room actually makes sense. Also do lots of saves, before you sleep each night is a good point, and let's you re-load if the next day is full...

    Windows 10

    It will be interesting what they dig out of the data stream for the next WLS version, we don't know "what" they are doing with it we know some very basic info, that it is in the "pipe" and on the way. Probably find out more info once the update hits "preview for enterprise" state..

    Persona 5

    Like I said, max out Takayami ASAP you get her as a confidant after "Operation Maidwatch", special massage takes care of Morgana annoying you everytime you want to go out, after a palace/mid day activity. Also if you want to max out all Confidants/Skills get the Fortune confidant sorta max'd...

    Windows 10

    If devs want games on multiple OS's they have too build the games to be that way, Wine/Photon does do some amazing work with what they have, but it is limited.(Factorio is a good example of this) With new updates it seems that MS are working on more of "WSL" But now the problem is, with Epic...

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (From Software)

    Yep, kinda weird that they fixed Sword-Saint also, the downside was if you messed it up his posture would fully reset, but ah well was fun the 1 time I did it. Never did the Demon fall.. All they have to do is not patch the game ... *shrug* your still gonna get the fucked boss fights sadly...

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (From Software)

    Seems that they have gone thru and fixed a bunch of AI exploits wanted too run thru again, can't exploit Sword-Saint(skipping phase 2, he just jumps back now and pulls out the spear), no more cheese Demon of Hatred, and True Monk they fixed the first phase drop attack, but you can still drop...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    From what we have seen with PS5 specs, backwards compatiblity is in(they would be idiots if they didn't do this), not sure on next xbox but if they follow the same rules, a simple "client" update too use the extra power of next generation consoles would be a easy update. It doesn't have too be...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Nothing on any Sony E3 press conference at all, they already said they are not going to be there this year, maybe something at PSX(*shrug* who knows) doubt it will be PS5 I could imagine a "enhanced" version, eventually..

    Windows 10

    Oh you can, don't expect the latest DX features, prepare to be staring at config files for hours on end(some games are shiping with config settings for proton), it is not a simple install/update, and just play. I did look into it a bit last year, but it is just not there yet, and probably...

    WINE has diffenetly gotten better over the past year, but sadly DirectX is still king for gaming. I know some companies have been trying to get away from it, but ease of access just makes it hard to pass up..

    Persona 5

    Well I mean honestly, if just wanting the main story, you can't really miss anything(it's just gonna be boring without having "more" to do) The confidants are more or less filler, between every palace sense everything is on a strict schedule... But I will say for Confidants max out Takayami...

    Just no more Ultimate Weapon and I'll be happy, after doing Weapons Refrain + o12s back-back I'm really tired of his shit...(albiet o12s was fun, all the programming jabs are very lol worthy..)

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    It's more of a question of $$$ , is it worth it too have a dev group sit down and redo a MMO from the late 90's(with so much spaghetti code I bet), or is it cheaper to have them sit down and build out a new MMO. Any kind of rebuild for EQ would have to be a what I like to call "Zero Code...

    Ultimates are alot of fun if you get the right people together, but they will put you in your place if you screw it up, even Coil is still giving us problems but were at about a 80% clear rate on it right now.

    Persona 5

    If it's anything like how they did P3:FES you'll be able too load your old save, and have all your persona's.(No clue if there gonna make a way too have it reload before the final days), but it seems that they are not only adding another semester, but there also redoing big chunks of older...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I've had too deal with Unions(my family are all Nuclear plant workers, heavy unions) They do have there benefits, but for Software/Tech/Game development ? No, all it would do is create too much fat within companies, and then you will see prices spiral out of control.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Newer TVs do a great job even up scaling 720p too higher resolutions, but having actual 1080p data helps more. PC hardware wasn't at a point yet too were hardware was easily customized(at the start of Nintendo/Sony/MS consoles), now it has become increasingly easier getting custom CPU/GPU/ram...
