    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Ingenuity is still there but it's fairly different, it kinda does the same thing(also does the same thing as Innovation now apparently), but it's unclear how it's scaled but I doubt they made it do the same as using it at max level difference(like when doing the 4star shit or whatever from patch...

    Monster Hunter: World

    PC release date announcement Jan 9th and "new" trailer with some of the PC features(4k, high res textures, ultra widescreen support, the usual). Edit: Seems the original news of Rajang being in at launch were wrong, they posted a roadmap and it'll only be available a month later.

    Prelim patch notes for 5.1 in case of people didn't see it: https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/8ce1cb59a72145623c96a2aeabdb5df4189ff01a Crafting changes look like it'll be oversimplified for sure, but it doesn't look too bad, will need to see it in action though it's hard to...

    Path of Exile

    Oh yeah I guess that works too I've seen people say you can do that for Harbinger farm too(I just bought white/yellow harbinger maps, they basically paid for themselves anyway and you don't even need to run that many since a bunch of harbingers in there).

    Path of Exile

    Yeah beyond boss is actually pretty easy, either spawn a beyond boss normally or use the prophecy that guarantees one, then carry the prophecy that makes the next rare you kill spawn a ghost(but don't use it so you don't waste it). Drag a rare to the beyond boss, use the prophecy and wait for...

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    The song is from Touhou games, old school shoot-em-ups(and a ton of spin offs). All the art from these games is open source so there's A LOT of remixes of all the songs and themes, in many genres(metal, classical and electronic mostly). This particular theme is a variation of Flandre's theme...

    Path of Exile

    The flipside is the economy on hardcore is a fucking wasteland and you can be looking a long time for well rolled rares and shit. But yeah no scammers there or at least not many. To be fair though unless you're selling/buying The Doctor or 6L big ticket uniques, you don't run into the scammers...

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    I hate limited time mechanics but FF13 LR was pretty lax with that, you "struggled" only early on(and even then it wasn't bad, unless you decided you wanted to do lvl 5 quests at lvl 25 or something), and then a few hours in you get a time rewind or whatever ability and you just spam that...

    Game Streaming Services - Stadia, Geforce Now, xCloud, PS Now

    I mean some of these games are quite good, but for a console launching like 5years into a cycle and only having non exclusives(so far) this is definitely fucking shit. Then again I had no interest in the console to begin with so I don't care too much, I just can't get why someone would invest...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I assume it's random so some people are unlucky and others lucky. I got one after leaving twitch alt tabbed for a day, not sure how long it took cause I didn't check until the day after. Haven't played League since like, 2015 or something.

    Playstation 5

    They might keep the V idea but it'll probably be a lot smaller and slicker than the dev kit. It does look like shit but at the same time I kinda don't care what it looks like since it most often ends up behind the TV for me anyway, so as long as it doesn't make the sound of a plane taking off...

    Crusader Kings 3

    There's already some dev posting this isn't exactly what they said and that they haven't really decided yet. Not sure why it's up to question but eh.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well the cosmetics one was just a random idea, they could leave it like it is currently fine too, it's not like HQing lvl 1 clothes for glamour does anything and furniture can't be HQed currently so no change necessary there. The consumables change would actually reduce the amount of items in...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    To be fair, they could rework the system to account for that. Let's say we take a 3 quality system, for 1-75% quality you get NQ, 76-99% HQ, 100% Pristine. Then you make the NQ actually not terrible, and HQ also good and Pristine not necessary but like more convenient. Examples: For cosmetics...

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

    The game is great yeah, at least if you like the genre(metroidvanias). It's not an easy game though and it takes a while like most games in that genre, but it has really good combat, nice level design and looks awesome.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well it's yes and no, while they're ALMOST never used, once in a while you use one of them to do different things, especially on harder crafts once CP becomes an issue you can downgrade or play with lower tier versions for only a few moves or whatever. It seems all of that is kinda going away...

    Now starting talking about the crafting changes, he's missing like 3/4 of his abilities so it seems they reworked a shit ton of stuff, hope it's not oversimplified. Well they didn't say much I guess, and they said it's only first part more changes coming in 5.2. The new crafting tree and...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Seems there's a lot of BLU mage changes, with more content for them(achievement farming it seemed like, which requires full BLU parties with no unsyncing no echo). Might last a bit longer than before, it comes with a bunch of skill changes so I hope they reworked it a bit so you can have better...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Oh yeah it's ok if the story is bad if they don't make it the focus like they did. And yeah PoE is like, eh. I did the achievement to read all the texts a couple weeks ago but honestly after like 50 I stopped reading, there was some semi interesting backstory though but the actual game story is...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    ARPGs aren't really narrative-centric though, so that's actually a good point for Blizzard, they make games that play well and that's really all that matters in an ARPG. They're also good at copying stuff, and they have PoE and Median XL D2 and even their own D3(after all the changes, knowing...

    Playstation 5

    From is working on Rings of Elds or whatever the stupid name of their new game is though. I guess maybe Sony owns the IP so they could get another studio to make it, not too sure, but do you really want to play Bloodborne 2 made by some random other studio?

    Archeage

    I know my friend who played the original are excited again about the new stuff, they asked me if I wanted to play, but don't really care much for it, partly because I skipped the original release too. From what I hear it looks pretty good though.

    MS Flight Simulator 2020

    Oh yeah I know it wouldn't be exactly the same but it could still be pretty interesting, especially since it's unlikely you'll fly everywhere around the world even with a license just due to issues like money or different laws or whatever(for example I don't think you can go to China and then...

    Console gaming through a wall

    Yeah but I feel if I was doing that, I'd drill a relatively large hole(5cm diameter or so, size of a glass), put some plastic thing on the edge to "fill" the wall edges and this way if you need to get more cables in or change cables or whatever, you just slide them in there easily along with...

    Console gaming through a wall

    I'd say no, but I guess it's worth testing? I don't get how the "box" ended up on another side of the wall or why you can't move it though, was the house somehow built around the setup or you installed it when they were still making the walls or something? Anyway past that as mentionned, you...

    Path of Exile

    I guess you could do the contrary, cast your BVs then withering step into the next pack. Checking the video, he does that a bunch of times, recast BV then withering step for faster movespeed into next pack(just run through it without pressing anything either), and then refresh/whatever. I don't...

    MS Flight Simulator 2020

    That's one thing that interests me, what people who pilot in real life will say about the game. My step father 10-15years ago was into getting his piloting license, I think he has like 30 or 40hours of flight or something but as he got older he didn't really bother with it anymore. If the game's...

    Path of Exile

    They're just gonna talk broad strokes kind of stuff we can expect from the expansion. I assume if they're adding an AH or some trading system, that's one thing, probably what they're doing with the acts if there's new ones or alternative leveling or whatever, maybe new class or new ascendencies...

    They could be tied, and they could also crash the materia market via Ishgard restoration and what not. Also isn't desynth rework this patch? This could have large impacts depending on how they rework it. The liveletter at the end of the week should shed some light on the amplitude of the...

    You can just read the 4.1 patch notes? That said since they're possibly tweaking shit who knows how it'll go this time. But assuming it's the usual pattern, new crafting gear set(Ala Mhigan in 4.1), the first blue stuff.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It's quite likely however that BLU will only be available 1-2weeks after, they did the same shit when it launched, they had the patch first and BLU later so people had time to do the new content(MSQ and Nier 24man in this case) without feeling like they have to rush leveling. But past that yeah...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    From a PS4 yeah, not from another platform. PS4 login requires you login via PSN, if you don't have a PC license it won't let you login from the PC client. Mac... I have no idea tbh. Depends on what a few months is and where you left off. If you played Shadowbringers, no new content until the...

    Playstation 5

    I mean there's absolutely no way any of the next gen consoles, or even the revisions to them they release later will run 8k games at even 30FPS. 8k is basically for movies only, nothing can realistically run 8k games without turning everything to the minimum and you'd still probably not hit...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    How are you going to log in the PS4 client with Steam, it's not like you can run PSN off Steam. If you mean a streaming service that actually has PS4 then yeah you can definitely do that but Steam doesn't do that. As for the other thing, you did that recently? They just(as in like a few weeks...

    I don't remember PS4 being particularily expensive, generally it's the Nintendo shit that you can flip easily cause they always produce low amounts to not waste but they apparently can't predict for shit(can't blame them too much with stuff like the Wii U). Worst case you can sell it for the...
