    Not sure why anybody would think it's a good idea to leave anything in a car in California at this point. I hear it takes 5 minutes to get your car broken into in the Bay Area if you leave anything expensive visible on the seats.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I assume this NPC pre-dates anyone knowing who the real person was? I bet this hobbit would be a way better mayor, at least.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Guy bailed on Bind Rush at the first sign of any difficulties on Vaniki. Not sure if I want to join another of his guilds. Thraka and Elaida did way more to hold that guild together.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    So Sorcerer is better than Wizard? Huh, I didn't see that coming. I like Minsc and the dark elf looking chick you can romance (Victoria I think, cleric). No real preferences otherwise on characters. A lot depends on how much room there is in a party. I'd like the Dwarf Berserker too, but I want...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    That plus probably a zillion minor bosses/areas. I was STILL finding stuff after 140 hours and 3 playthroughs. I think last time I played I found two new dungeons right under the Draconic Tree Sentinel fight, jump off the edge somewhere around there and there are some crypts that go under...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I'm unfamiliar with Mohg's spear, I'll give it a try next time I play. This is why it's good to never throw away weapons.

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    I tried the demo of this, had a really fun time. Feels like an easier Sekiro with levels/weapons/armor. Got to the first boss and lost that a few times. I really dislike two-phase bosses unless they're late in a game or side-bosses, situations like Malenia or the Elden Beast. Having a two-phase...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    This'll get a laugh out of some people, but I like how similar BG2 is to Final Fantasy 1 in some ways. (FF1 was also based on D&D) Casters get spell levels with charges, same as FF1, and at some point you can upgrade to a sub-class, like FF1 (except FF1 gives you one choice, this gives you 4+...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    This seems like it should be obvious. The Fermi Paradox ("if there are aliens, where is everybody?") was always logically bogus. Space is very very large and our tools of detection are very limited. Especially if most spacefaring craft use anti-gravity propulsion that emits no heat or light to...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    What level should I go do the Moria access? I'm not actually playing it, just reading up. I dunno when I'll get back to it, kind of contingent on when my mom wants to play it again. For years she was trying to get me to play this with her and I felt kinda bad cause I was never that into it...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Is that Foaming? Terrible name. If you're doing Qeynos militia, it's gotta be Kane Bayle. Unless that was used and I think it was. Maybe Corporal Lancot. Or Guard Gehnus, that one always got a chuckle. Typically these server names often invoke their ruleset in some way though. Like a Kunark...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Cat, treant, bear, scaled wolf, crocodile, and whatever ogres have are the current beastlord theme. So what follows in that pattern and is also elf-ish? I'd say a bird of some sort, like an eagle or a small Hippogriff model. Lion could also work but it might be too similar to the tiger. Any...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    I've been talking to friends about similarities between drones/AI and Terminator/Skynet. One thing I came to a conclusion on very quickly and have stuck to: Actual AI is about a thousand times more efficient than Skynet was in the movies, and drones are a lot more dangerous than the plodding...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I remember playing an RPG called Gates of Macrohard that was very rudimentary, circa 1995 or so, on PC. I think I figured out how to edit the maps (or there was an editing tool) because I remember trying to turn the game into a weird Final Fantasy knockoff using .ico files I found online of...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Is this map pretty up-to-date? It's missing Lonely Mountain, off the top of my head, and maybe some of Mordor? But I think that might be it. I'm kinda surprised they haven't filled in more of the west coastal regions like Lindon. Same question with this one, how up to date? Pretty helpful map...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah that snow town with the archers is what I was talking about. Worst place in the game. Since you've got that place and the tree out of the way it's pretty much smooth sailing to the end now. Only other particularly tough fights are the two Mohgs, the Dragonlord in the flying area, and maybe...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    These videos are great, but I'd enjoy them a lot more if the dialogue resembled the presidents more instead of just the voices. They all talk just like characters in a Wojak skit and it takes me out of it pretty hard.

    Metroid Prime Remastered

    Much as I would have liked a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD, it's cool to get it in this form with some extra oomph. I just hope MP2 isn't too far off because I was all ready to play it as soon as I finished this. MP3 is kinda whatever for me but it has some great moments.

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    Sekiro is in my top five shortlist. I mean it's right there near the top of the list. I'm like half a step from playing it at any given time. Same with the Niohs. I think it might fit in somewhere soon.

    Oh nice. Yeah the original is awesome. Looking at this trailer makes me wonder who the terrible urban planner was who built a main highway that'd have everyone driving directly into the sun during morning rush hour.

    Everquest Confessions

    This is a cool idea. I got scr00d on the first one and it brought the score way down. Kaesora and Dalnir are mixed up in my head. This last one was just a complete wild guess on my part. Very unfamiliar with Plane of Mischief, but it looked like what I remember the zone looking like, and I...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    I was looking at some maps of how the game is now. It's humongous, maybe bigger than WoW's surface area. Especially without flying mounts to smallify the world. Every time I thought I'd seen all of it I'd find some new set of maps for some coastal land I'd never heard of or something. It was a...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I wonder about the feasibility of doing an Agnarr 2 server at this point in time, then merging the original into it a month into PoP. Could be pretty lively if marketed right. I'd rather see a new idea for an event server using that same concept though. Maybe a Kerafyrm server that starts in TSS...

    Oh, now things make a bit more sense. Yeah I only wish I had Kronos to Lord. I could play for free with multiple accounts for a couple years thanks to my Vaniki work at least. Making all AAs purchasable at 50 would be reaaaaally interesting. I imagine it'd take ages to earn them when the top...

    Yeah, I would never rely on something like this as my source of employment and the GM thing is a big part of that. You could get an entire box operation shut down in an instant and lose God knows how much accumulated krono. I don't know how this discussion turned into "lol $87k is nothing" and...

    If you want to do perfect parries there is a rhythm to it, like Genichiro has that 1, 2, 3456, 7, 8 pattern to his flurry. Maybe "rhythm game" is the wrong term, but game with rhythm elements? @Seananigans pls advise

    WELLLLLL? Just realized a bunch of these have been spotted over Syria and Iran. The top suspects for it being advanced human technology are obviously the US, Russia, and China, but I'd say it's equally possible it's Israel. Blows me away how they've been allowed to do so much off-books weapons...

    Weird games that don't deserve their own thread

    Got Powerwash Simulator on PS5. Not a bad deal for $25. Good game to relax with after a long day when you're too tired to engage with anything more substantial. It just got a Final Fantasy 7 themed DLC addition too at no extra charge, which is what put it over the top for me. I bet a few people...

    Naw bro, that DoN crystal farm I talked about above was pretty much the height of me "kronolording" or manipulating markets. As much as one can actually do those things as a solo SK on a -10 level server. I've still got the majority of the kronos I made from that DoN thing too, nobody's paying...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Since it doesn't matter anymore, here's how I farmed a ton of my kronos on Vaniki. Farmed one particular DoN mission solo at level 60, had two AFK characters sitting outside to get 3x the crystals, proceeded to sell said crystals at the end of every session and convert the plat into kronos. Rate...

    I'm gonna have a lot of free time from May to about August, working very part-time (like 15 hours a week).

    That's pretty stunning. I'd like to be that guy at one point. Turning EQ into a meta-game. At least on a temporary basis, because at the end of the day it isn't worth it for time invested as a job. What I'm talking about is maximizing that month of hardcore playing that I tend to do once a year...
