    Didn't see it posted but in case of, Amazon is running a promotional event in the US, buy 20$ worth of stuff(no preorders) and you get a Black Fat Chocobo for free with it. NA only for now. Presenting the FFXIV and Amazon.com® Free DLC Giveaway! | FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I mean sure, but also it's not like they get any more money from you preordering versus ordering the game at release. I do buy a bunch of games before they release for various reasons, but generally I don't bother until it's about to be released and I feel like playing it at the time. I'm not...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    There's literally no reason to ever preorder something so far from its release. Arguably, there's no reason to preorder at all, unless the preorder comes with some bonuses you deem valuable enough(mmo early start stuff or beta access comes to mind). Just buy the game when it releases if it's...

    Real game ads are always so weird. At least this one isn't too cringey. Also apparently Tom Holland actually plays the game, or so I read on Reddit.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I think they'll have a world map, it's not really hard to make one or anything, they can even stylize it in old school graphics or whatever so they don't have to design a realistic looking one. And not sure what the comment about them not caring about it for a long while means. FFXIII, which...

    Oh yeah if you have the game registered you have everything, trial is just the limited up to 35 thing before you register(can't add friends, make party finder groups or send tells either with that). You should have access to retainers, assuming you're far enough in the MSQ. Go to one of the...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    If you're on trial, you can't use retainers, which act as bank in this. Basically when you buy the game, you get access to retainers around lvl 17MSQ which let you both sell stuff on the market(which is why they're not available for trials, to prevent botters using trial accounts) and have...

    Yeah but that doesn't matter really, just reds will be yellows but new master books will still be on yellows, white scrips will only be available later, like for the raid release or savage release I forgot which. But you can't have the new books costing like 400yellows and the SB books also...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The books are easy to get but they're older books and it's pointless for them to keep their high value when they're adding new books you have to get with the same scrips too. It makes perfect sense for them to reduce the old books no one cares about for easier catching up. Anyway crafting was...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Depends on how they do it. Hopefully they make it harder to gain quality via crafting, so the higher starting HQ becomes kinda necessary to keep the same difficulty. That said crafting hasn't been hard all of SB due to Prudent Touch specifically so I don't know how they'll go next expansion...

    You could just use Flame Dash even with a shield.

    Path of Exile

    You're meant to dodge the spears, the mobs have a fairly lengthy animation before they throw. The problem is they aggro offscreen and start charging, so if you flame dash/shield charge/quicksilver with high movespeed into them, they basically just shoot you right in the face. It's a bit like if...

    Hmm so far not too much that was interesting, few bits here and there. Trust will only give about 1/4 of the loot of a standard dungeon to compensate since you're alone, unlike Squadrons. Seems fair especially if there's still the guaranteed loot at the end. Gatherers didn't get a whole lot of...

    Path of Exile

    With the right affixes legion mobs will still one shot you even with 7k. They seem to one shot people with 8-9k EHP with a bunch of damage reduction, and since they do their "charge" animation offscreen, you basically just run into them as they fire their big shit and you die instantly. Won't...

    Lol this time they started the test stream 1hour early for the live letter, so they don't run into the mess of last time. Seems to work fine too. Live letter in an hour.

    There's a 2min uber elder cyclone kill, so scales perfectly fine. The main issue have been all the bugs associated to chanelling and cyclone specifically(too many actions shit). I think a bunch were fixed though.

    It's a lot of spells overall. Quick count puts the number of lvl 50 spells at 20, not counting the ones you get as totems. Out of these, you can learn easily Tail Screw(can be learned on scorpions in fringes instead of the satasha hard boss, so that shit's really quick with someone else...

    It isn't really much different than old wow(not sure how wow works nowadays). Damage=threat, tank stance=multiplier, some skills have their own multipliers(the ones that say additional threat, the threat combo, the ranged attack you get at lvl 15, the aoe threat move, all 3 tanks have all of...

    Would be weird for w33ha to be in another team when he's playing right now in a tournament with his old team. And supposedly Matumba is only benched, so it might have been a mutual decision(for real, not the PR shit when someone gets kicked). Maybe he felt that he couldn't get into the game as...

    I wasn't saying the combat is the most important part, just that the combat wasn't very good in Witcher 3 either, so the complaints the combat in this wasn't very impressive might be accurate(although in the case of faggot in chief report it was probably getting lucky or hearing someone say it...

    Oh there's a lot of people leveling in potd/hoh obviously, but there's like no one actually doing the higher floors for stuff to sell. I mean, there's some ppl doing it, always some of the mounts for sale, but it's very few people. Even when Black Pegasus was 40-50m, there were rarely more than...

    Potd and HoH have really expensive mounts and people barely bother farming them even though you can do it solo. I guess I shouldn't have said "anyone", but I doubt many people will bother farming dead content over and over for a very small % chance at getting something they can sell for...

    The complaint about bad gunplay isn't just from the SJW retards though, at least if reddit was right, apparently Maximilian_dood(twitch streamer who plays mostly fighting games) and some other streamer I forgot had the same comments about it. Like keanu and transpeepee shit aside, they could...

    Unless they nerf Eureka a bunch/make it unsyncable, I don't think anyone's gonna bother farming anything in there. Takes too many people to do efficient NMs and the chances are too shit for the few valuable things. If they nerf it and make it so you can solo or maybe duo sure I could see people...

    Hydatos crystals are definitely the bottleneck imo. It only takes 2 providence spawns to get your shit done, and generally speaking it spawns at least once a day, during prime time when there's enough people to do claws efficiently. I was done with PW pretty quickly, and that's with killing it...

    Oh controller bars there's some options in the re too, cross hotbars stuff, then you have an additional option to activate WXHB or whatever it's called. It lets you display more bars. You have one bar when holding R1(or R2 not sure what's default), one bar for holding L1, one bar for holding R1...

Alternatively, open HUD Layout and right click any of the bars that are...

    They've been pretty slow fixing some bugs they identified right away all things considered.

    Sure. If you get a fair bit of armor with a Granite of Iron Skin and a few life/armor nodes and an armor chest, you can get some fairly good results out of Molten Shell.

    You don't really need to do ARR hunts though, unless going for achievements like S rank hunt ones. And you do get movespeed 1star already from quests, so it's not as much of an improvement as it used to be back in HW before they added that. And honestly ARR hunts are kinda whatever too, only the...

    PoB doesn't calculate impale btw. If you have high % to impale and high attackspeed it can be really strong but kinda depends. Great for cyclone though. Knockkback isn't so bad on cyclone since it doesn't push stuff too far and basically prevents a lot of stuff from being able to attack you.

    Well 3 parts should be possible, if they don't decide they want to rework the systems every game.

    Based on the level of enemies, that's the right lvl, and if it follows the first 2 borderlands pattern, that's still the first playthrough, where everything kinda just melts regardless of what you're doing. You can also kinda tell from the fact the player gets hit by 50 fucking things and only...
