    Path of Exile

    Anyone who played Heist, how rare were alt quality gems? I'm thinking of a build but I'd need an alt quality main skill for it to function properly so not entirely sure how easy it'd be to get.

    Path of Exile

    They buffed Skeleton mages a lot though, so they might become the new shit. Skeletons are nice because they don't need fancy shit if they die like spectres, you just press the button again and make more. 50% more dmg and double proj speed are quite hefty buffs for them. That said I don't know...

    Path of Exile

    One of the necro nerf I don't get is them removing minion duration from mistress. Temporary minion builds aren't even that good? It just makes them more tedious. I feel at least it should have been moved somewhere(unless they're moving it on the tree, or on the gems, then it's fine I guess)...

    So much shit doesn't even show patch notes until the day of the patch. And PoE has been the same for patch note release for years, it's a few days before the league, which is really enough.

    Path of Exile

    Every league, most of the big streamers make new videos with the "best" starter guides, most of which have various links on how to build and stuff. These are generally good. If you mean to play right now, you'd look at the ones from Heist launch, if you mean for next league, there won't be...

    Path of Exile

    Yeah maybe I know I paid people to do even not too hard stuff just so I didn't have to bother, like killing that boss while imitating a monkey riding a bike and all these shits. There's also buying uniques or whatever the fuck they usually have, this kind of stuff, but usually you can get a lot...

    Path of Exile

    They do but generally you'll get a fair bit just playing, then a few you can farm for a few hours to finish, and everything else you can liquidate your currency to just buy them(if you're SSF you migrate first), and then you're done with the league. If you want to keep playing well I guess you...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Different team working on this than the MHW one, which probably is already working on a new next gen+PC MH. This will potentially release on PC too eventually, as per the leaks.

    Path of Exile

    You get to save 10 crafts at your... horticulture station or whatever? I haven't played Harvest. They said it'll be available in your hideout too, so you can save some crafts for later, but you can't just stack everything you find.

    Path of Exile

    Reading the comments about Heist though, they didn't really do anything to "fix" it, and you're still going to have to level rogues every league, which sounds like ass when there's already unveiling shit and doing lab and so on every league. Seems they nerfed golemancer too, maybe a mistake in...

    Pretty sure that page said they'll have it on youtube after it's done as usual, plus twitch has VoDs too.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Because you have to pay these people, and unless the bot impact negatively affects their revenue, they're not gonna spend additional money having people run around banning bots when they could be answering tickets about lost items and deleted characters instead, and they'll have the bare minimum...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The efficiency would go down but it's not like it couldn't be done with beastmaster hunters, or whatever else is the most convenient if that too gets nerfed. In Suramar when I played last year there were a bunch of hunters too camping some of the more static spots, while the druids were circling...

    2020 GOTY

    I think Risk of Rain 2 is the only game I played this year that also came out this year. Everything else has been backlog/older/continuous stuff(FFXIV mostly, not much PoE this year), so I guess it'd win by default for me, but I wouldn't really say it's a GOTY game even if it's good. Doesn't...

    Seems next expansion reveal won't have the usual drip feed of Bex posts on reddit but instead will be a livestream with everything revealed at once, on Jan 7th(11AM PST). Official announcement: Announcements - Path of Exile 3.13.0 Announcement Details - Forum - Path of Exile

    Path of Exile

    That's Path of Exile builds for the most part, a very large part of your build is dedicated to survivability(which generally means life), and that's why making builds once you get the overall concept isn't really that complicated, you just get the keystones that are important for your build, see...

    Ashes of Creation

    Any ability like black hole is basically the core of any mass pvp engagement, grouping people together so they get smashed by aoes wins fights instantly. This is also unlikely to be a full ability list, I'd assume? Game is in like pre alpha or some shit they're just showing off fancy effects.

    Monster Hunter Rise

    A leak said it would be coming for PC too, but they probably won't announce that until it's released. I'm holding out for a Switch Pro thing announcement at least, not in a rush. MHW2 or whatever the actual name will be is also most likely being worked on by another team and will definitely be...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    HH was fun in Iceborne already tbh. Base world was meh, but just adding the offensive notes and the spin made it really good(also speeding up a bunch of the animations), even not counting the support side of it. The only downside was not being able to cut tails, which made grinding for some...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Seemed more surprised that they added such an old game that's been given away for nothing for so long and stuff, I assume. Same for Defense Grid. Although it makes sense, there's only so many games Epic can give away that they sell, and they're not gonna give away expensive stuff either. At...

    Oh old league mechanics, nice, I can finally do my favorite old league content to farm lots of currency, can't wait to do Essences.

    Riot Games MMO

    My first reaction was more "how mmo is this mmo going to be", because lately pseudo mmos like shooter mmos(destiny and such) have been pretty popular and making quite a lot of money, to a lesser extent you have diablo-like mmos in korea, you have the phantasy star/dragon's dogma etc smaller...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Uh lots of stuff I probably wouldn't have bought on that list that I wouldn't mind owning in case of, guess I'll have to remember to log in everyday. Horizon Zero Dawn is probably the most surprising though, that shit's still kinda new? Like barely any sale new, and yet it's free already? And it...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Tzeentch also probably shits out particles all over the screen, while Nurgle you can get away with just fancy textures and such. I'm curious what they're gonna do with "classes" though, a large part of the fun of Vermintide is the various classes which change several major aspects of each of...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I saw someone on reddit that said something interesting about that, in the first video there were a bunch of guardmen because the other chars weren't ready to be revealed, so it's quite possible that one of the 2 current guardsman-likes is a placeholder for another character(or they could add a...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They don't really have anything to do together though? Anatman is for maintaining twin snakes during breaks, Perfect Balance is a damage cooldown that lets you do Dragon Kick > Bootshine 3times in a row. Not sure what you're trying to say, you wouldn't use them in the same situation. Even...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah that was kinda expected seeing the changes, it's a very bland class now, will need next expansion stuff to make it interesting again I assume. Anatman is nice-ish to reset twin snakes duration during breaks, you don't really hold it but it doesn't really cost anything to do and adds a bit...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    There was a guy who said in his preview it was buggy as fuck but then said he patched and it was a lot less buggy, not sure if all these guys have the patch or the first one was full of shit(maybe both, could still be super bugged even after the patch, just less gamebreaking bugs). Honestly...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Only for HW and it seems unlikely they'll do it for current version and more like for past expansion catch up kinda thing. I still have a couple of Stormblood fishes I needed so that'll be useful once they get to that, but that won't help much with Ocean Fishing once they release the next...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah we'll have to see hopefully they're not like removing dyes or whatever cause that'd be a bitch move, but if they remove a bunch of the garbage that wouldn't be so bad since quick ventures are filled with crap like tome gear that realistically no one ever wants. The triple triad changes are...

    He's a pretty big streamer, which is why they got him to do the Pantheon stuff.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So live letter was today, new patch coming on the 8th as expected, with blue mage/relic stuff coming in .45 so a month and a half or two later. Monk changes look nice although looked pretty dumbed down as a result, but at least they made tornado kick and SSS useable in the main rotation instead...

    Playstation 5

    It's faster than PS4 but slower than PC iirc cause of their weird SSD optimization needed. Think it was 15-20secs to load into levels(and like 10-15 to town) when I checked the backward compatible videos stuff just before it released, when usually PC gets slightly faster loadings than that. But...

    Operencia:The stolen sun

    Yeah I saw and I thought about buying it but then I figure I won't be playing it now, and then in a couple weeks I'll be playing Cyberpunk or FFXIV, then the other and at that point there will be another sale, maybe better than this one, or I'll just be playing one of the other games I already...
  37. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The textures still look like fucking horrible garbage, but the game does look nicer on 4k, like really everything. I guess the loadings not taking forever is also a pretty big change on PS5, although apparently the SSD is weird if it's not optimized it doesn't get great performances.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I use right shift personally when typing. I hate using left shift too for key combos, I do sometimes and I don't mind having just an action tied to shift(but not something I'm gonna be pressing all the time like sprint) but I stick to mostly alt+key unless I really need a lot of keys(FFXIV for...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well in a way if we follow the trend of "old fights coming back" but different, there could be some sort of meta ascian fight where memories of the various ascians are mixed together. It sucks this is going to release so close to Cyberpunk, I'll have to try to avoid spoilers until I'm done and...

    Total War: Warhammer

    No and unlikely to be until all 3 games and all DLCs are done, they didn't do one for War1 and that was years ago. You just buy the DLCs you want to play when they're on sale, don't have to buy everything at once there's so much to go through anyway it's a waste. That said that's probably what...
