Anyone have suggestions for dress shirt brand/style? I'm pretty picky about my dress shirts and I have a hard time finding a brand that fits/works well. The fit that usually works best for me would probably be described as "athletic fit." The really slim stuff chokes me to death and I can't...

No, seriously, is Kegz running EQ Reborn? Just rolled a char there and I need to know before spending time leveling.

Wait, Kegz is running the EQ Reborn server?

Fantastic show. Definitely flying under the radar right now. This is going to be one of those shows where in a few years everyone is going to be saying, "how did I miss this?"

That's the only explanation that makes sense to me. Jimmy isn't a great guy, but Chuck was his brother and he spent years taking care of him. No indication he wanted his brother to die. Jimmy was clearly very upset when he learned about Chuck's death, it's not like realizing he caused it...

Pretty thorough write up on Pathfinder 2 for those who are curious, like me: Review: Pathfinder 2 Playtest

Guess this is a good thread to ask- Discovery worth the time to watch? I put it on the back burner and forgot about it. Should I bother?

What are the main differences between old PF and new PF? Any major overhauls, like making it skill-based, or changing major mechanics?

Bro, this is possibly the one thread that still resembles the early foh board years. This is the exact same argument that has going on since 2005, except the word Vanguard has been replaced with the word Pantheon.

According to just about every metric I should love Sopranos. I've been a Gandolfini fan since True Romance, I love the genre, Rome and Deadwood are two of my favorite shows of all time... Yet I still couldn't get into the Sopranos and I can't figure out why. It wasn't bad, it just didn't...

I'm intrigued. Why would it have been better to watch as it was coming out than now?

Other than annoying pvp shit, like zone dancing/plugging, zoning never bothered me- as long as the zone times are fast. I liked having dozens of little microcosms (zones) within the broader game world. Different zones had different feelings- different personalities. I liked being able to run...

My group actually played around with the EQ pnp RPG. I was pretty dubious about it, but it ended up being a blast. The system was well-designed and Norrath makes a surprisingly decent pnp gaming setting. The advantage is that we all knew the setting, so when the GM started describing Felwithe...

You didn't play early EQ if you weren't part of at least one fucked up fear raid that resulted in several hours worth of failed CR attempts and several naked deaths.

My best friend and I actually broke his dad's VCR with this movie when we were kids. His dad was fucking pissed- this was when VCRs were actually pretty expensive. Burned the motor out rewinding, attempting slo-mo, pausing this scene over and over. These were the only tits we had access to...

Lol none of those thing would prevent someone from composing music, but yeah it may very well be a different Nino.

Nino is a really solid dude and a talented composer. He did the musical score for VG.

I loved the classless part when I tested out the server when it was pvp. Looking forward to playing the live version.

I consider p2w anytime you can pay real money to circumvent in game mechanics that those who don't pay real money can't circumvent. That's a long way of saying when you can buy in game shit with out of game money, it's p2w. In early access you aren't circumventing anything. You are still...

That's not bad. I'd be solo or with gf. Lots of hobbies though, so I would need a 2BR at min (1100-1300 sq ft) for storage and office space (or a really big 1BR with storage). Haven't really checked out buying prices yet, either. I'd have a firm ceiling of like 400k for a small house (2-3...

What's min salary to rent a decent place in the Portland area?

They'll absolutely expand the team regardless of projected financial issues of it's deemed necessary for the project. Can tell you that from first hand experience. Don't use a 'now hiring' sign as any indication of the financial health of a project in this business.

I recently looked into quitting my govt job and buying a business. Met with a broker and had some long discussions. Impression I got was similar to what lots are saying: don't go near a brick and mortar restaurant. Also, I personally decided not to buy someone else's headache. If I were to...

I'm actually looking at a job opportunity in Portland myself. My general and halfassed research has turned up pretty positive things so far. Anything I'm missing that would give me pause to move there? I'm in Denver now, so I'm pretty used to the homeless thing and I can deal.

Something up with the server? I was logging in fine this morning but now I get disconned as soon as I select server and try to log in.

Who are you kidding- none of those people will be on the pvp server.

Dozens and dozens of easy ways to prevent cock blocking. First and foremost, simply don't publish what the goal or condition of server Victory even is. Second, some degree of cock-blocking is good in a PVP server.

I like the idea of a goal or condition that triggers a wipe a lot. Especially if you make the goal or condition with the intent that it would take about a month to achieve it. Plus you could certainly play around with it. If it took longer or less time than you thought you could just change the...

Depends on a lot of things: max level, experience bonus, drop rates, pve content. I agree 2 weeks seems pretty short if the objective is to encourage at least a little pve play. You would barely have time to make a character, kill some NPCs, get some gear and some rares, and have a few pvp...

I'm sure there will be some adjustments lol. A lot of those issues have easy fixes

Yeah the "no classes" thing definitely changes the dynamic for races.

So what's the level cap?

That sounds like a great idea except for the whole research part. why not make them all from drops instead of bothering with the tedium of research?

Some good and novel ideas here. I'll check it out for sure. Love the idea of a classless system and the fact that all players get track. Only issue I see is that in traditional EQ track was broken when you tried to use it to track players that weren't in your group- has this issue been fixed?

I totally agree. I also don't think it's really a minor complaint. There is zero reason to keep fucking around with the confusing timeline stuff. There are times when you can sacrifice clarity for "big reveal" moments, but that time has passed. Give us a cogent timeline and let us have a...

Fucking Drachnids killed me so many times when Kunark first came out. I had some shitty graphics card that would pretty much shut down once I hit the tree line in the dreadlands or wherever. Those bastard spiders would kill me while my screen was freezing up and next thing I knew I was naked at...

I'm picturing you sitting there typing at your computer and someone just came up behind you and put a bullet in your head. Hope this isn't the case.

4E was horrendous imo. 5E isn't watered down it's just very concise. It was made with the idea of putting the focus back on story/roleplaying as opposed to stats/abilities. I like 5E a lot for what it is. That said I like something a little more complex and crunchy. Pathfinder kind of...
