Maybe it's a program of containment, get those people on to their own little island where they can't hurt anyone but each other.

Fundamentally racist to assume that someone's skin color tells you their perspective.

I can picture Ion doing that thing where he looks up and to the side while bullshit spills out of his mouth, eyes not fully open.

I now prefer the hobo over him.

BGs are in from day one along with the full honor system. That's the only PvP change I've seen so far. If anything is on the table I'd like some dual talent spec shit please.

Occasionally panic mash flasks.

I was doing Poisonous Concoction Occultist and while I wasn't feeling the league the skill was solid. If I decide to tag back in I'd probably give the Pathfinder variety a go.

Bundy volunteered at a suicide hotline and everyone he worked with thought he was great.

The primary inspiration for 28 Days Later is Day of the Triffids.

The people that play super well tend to also play the super good classes because of course they do. Finding people that are super good AND off meta is rare. You've maybe got a couple of those people at any time and for every one of those there's a hundred shitter "Don't Tell Me How to Play" Andys.

I've never seen a ranger put in max effort throughout an entire VT raid start to finish every trash mob every boss. Never ever ever. I have no point of comparison to make. I've seen Monks, Rogues and Wizards treat every single piece of trash like their ass was on the line but I've never had the...

They just need to keep whoever set up The Maven and Expedition on the payroll.

Well sure I'm surprised. I was expecting the lore gravy train to keep on runnin' At the minimum I was expecting we'd discover slowly over time that the corruption we were absorbing was weakening the barrier between that Wraeclast and ours building towards a giant boss battle to reseal the tear...

It is about corpses. unrelated lizard judge judy in her underwear

I figure people will make characters specifically to farm corruption.

I still say it feels like an endgame mechanic but with no connective tissue to it and the rest of a league. It's the cherry on top of something else but the something else is missing. After a couple more days of play what is really standing out is how shallow the story is. The Maven and her...

Do bosses still drop the same number of items?

This should all be smoothed out by the time Mischief Two : Electric Boogaloo and the Quest For More Bags launches in March.

I had always assumed that the league mechanic being a crutch was one of the cornerstones of Path of Exile's design philosophy. Both new and lapsed players benefit from having clear direction and the long time players are pushed to do something new rather than doing mostly the same thing for the...

Maven got paired with Ritual. You had the extra endgame shit with some if it being pretty fucking hard and then the plebs had their Ritual shops. Scourge is missing the pleb food pellet part of a league. Where my food stamps at? It's too bad that Expedition had the flask, ailment and ascendancy...

It's a strange mechanic. Expedition didn't have a crazy ceiling like Scourge does but it have a pretty high floor. As they came out back to back the contrast between the two really stands out. Rog and Tujen were super bros, the league was heavy on flavor and story and if you got murdered it was...

Because it's a white kid shooting some white dudes he's got a good honest chance at a fair trial.

Aw shit it's Pee Wee Herman Munster

The degree to which this company is determined to never get my dollars ever again is baffling.

I stopped dying a whole lot less with a Temporal Chains aura going.

His book Life of the Party is pretty goddamn funny. He does the reading for the audiobook and it's just a great time.

Scream also manages to be meta without becoming a parody which is tough to do. It's a shame it spawned a host of awful sequels and copycats.

At it's core the problem I have with Scourge thus far is a lack of player agency. I'm not picking which organs go in to the tank, whether to press my luck with another round in Ultimatum, how far into the Delirium fog to go, which Remnants I'm going to tackle or anything like that. I get to push...

also a gif because thread

The already Scourged rares that drop would have been a fine place to adjust drops such that they were really rare but somewhat decent.

I'm only at the start of white maps but every dropped rare with the league mechanic corruption sprinkled on top has been unusable.

I legit have no idea how to gear up a character through the story so when the league mechanic doesn't hold my hand in some way through that process I get to maps frail as a kitten. Combined with how murdery Scourge is and I'm going to have to pretend that button doesn't exist for a while.

Had a little crappier performance than I'm used to (was still playing Expedition at least a little up until the end) and more crashes as well.

THE STORY OF RAINFURREST unrelated -

I hardly watch any contemporary movies and Covenant still managed to make me 100% done with the overblown video-gamey action sequences in films. See Terminator:Genysis, see Covenant, done forever. Space truckers work in Alien because of how grounded everything is. We're in the future and...
