    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    Can somebody sum up what was so bad about the ME3 ending? ME1 and 2 were two of my favorite games circa 2012. I played the hell out of both of them for weeks while I was in college, and they single-handedly got me back interested in Star Trek which prompted me to do big watches of some of the...

    I've got plans for Sekiro, "put aside an entire 1-2 weeks and focus entirely on it" type plans. Unfortunately they gotta wait until the new year, most likely. From what I've played I think it has a good chance of becoming my favorite Fromsoft game which is crazy.

    You just described both the right and the left in the US. They just have different boogeymen and different levels of aggressiveness about whether or not other people need to adhere to what they believe.

    I don't want to spend too much time on it or grind up classic-style. I'd just like it if levels took more than 10 minutes. Traveling to a new zone sometimes takes longer than actually playing in the new zone does. A lot of this might be because of the EXP buff, though. Game is probably fine...

    For Icecrown, what's the best point to start from? It looks like it has entrances from Storm Peak, Sholazar, and Crystalsong. I went in from Crystalsong just because that's where I was at that moment, but I'd been meaning to ask if there's a better starting point.

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    The music in that Ori clip sounds super emotional and stuff. Is the whole game like that? I get the impression it's a game that'll depress me, or make me feel things, one or the other. For me it was Shrine of Amana in Souls 2, probably the worst area in the entire series. I played both the...

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    Xenogears is pretty rough in that regard. I think you might be able to backtrack out of the final area but it's a ridiclous trek. The only "underleveled" you can be there is not having better Gear parts. I think there's a shop at Duneman's Isle or something that sells uber-strong gear parts...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Looks good, but I have to say, the battles remind me a lot of FF15. That is, all flash, no substance. Hope I'm wrong. Would love to see the battle system of one of the old games return (1-9, or 10, or 12, or even 13) rather than another action-oriented chaotic schmozz. At least the characters...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Considering I'm only playing this once every five years or so, yeah, it taking 20 hours to level instead of 8 would be a bit more interesting. I hope I can spend some real time in Storm Peaks and Icecrown without leveling right out of them. Moving on from Zul'Drak next time I play (level 26)...

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    Thought this might be an interesting topic. What are things that made you tap out at the 11th hour on finishing a game? Or maybe you slogged through and it just kinda ruined your memories of an otherwise-enjoyable game? Not too long ago I was playing Romancing Saga 2, and the final boss is so...

    What are you playing?

    The only speedrunning I do is Super Metroid. Probably the only thing I'm good at enough for that. My best time is something like 1:15, with the WR being :43 or so I think. I run it about once a year. It's a little tougher now because I get input lag sometimes with emulation. Like PSClassic...

    Nice, I'm just gonna wait until the 25th to keep leveling then. I'm level 18 now IIRC. Leveling is way more fun with variety of talent points to spend, they must have been on crack when they changed it.

    Yes. Switch has a ton of exclusives so I got a Switch. Otherwise I'm missing out on Mario/Metroid/Zelda. PS5 has a some exclusives, so I got that too. Bloodborne springs to mind (technically it's PS4 but yeah). XBox (whichever it's up to in their bizarre naming) doesn't really have anything I...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I remember when the game had you buy new versions of spells, at the very least. Now it's just your level 1 spell the whole way. Looks like if you choose an expac in Chromie Time it changes the zones to 50 max. So Icecrown went from "25-30" to "25-50". That's awesome, now I can spend some more...

    Yeah, it's nuts. People need to actually be asked to work a little bit if you want them to be invested in your game. And people like being challenged, having something expected out of them when they play a game, otherwise what's the point? WoW has always just given people shit, and rolled over...

    Nope retail. Level 14 now, did Hellfire Peninsula a bit to get that dose of "first day of TBC" nostalgia, then switched to Wrath with Chromie and I guess I'll just go wherever makes sense there. Kind of a bummer that the BG queue seems nonexistent in the 10's.

    I'll skip Netherstorm due to it being so out of the way. Uldum kinda is too but I don't mind crossing Kalimdor. What happened to Eye of the Storm anyway? That'd get me a Netherstorm fix, except it isn't in the battleground list anymore. What level do you get flight abilities at this point...

    I think the one on the left is.... I thought the one on the right was, until I saw the one on the left. The one on the right has a waist-to-hip ratio that is unmistakably female. Never realized until recently how similar a lot of women look to men face-wise if you take away the long hair and...

    Got to level 10. New ideas for leveling: Hellfire 10-15 Howling Fjord, Grizzly Hills 15-20 Zul 20-25 Storm Peaks, Icecrown, Netherstorm 25-30 Uldum 31-35 Frostfire Ridge 36-40 ? 41-44 Argus 45-48 Kind of annoying that 3 of the top zones I really want to hang out in are all in the same 5 level...

    TLDR women are way more narcissistic than they used to be. And yeah, I am a bad candidate, I mostly want to be left alone. Got WoW running. Female Void Elves look hot as hell, so I wanted to make one. Looks like there are some hoops to jump through, and surprisingly I guess I never finished...

    Funny you say that because over the last 3 years I've pretty much noped out of women altogether. Though at the moment I'm getting the urge to get back into it. My long-term relationship ended in 2017 and I had a few shorter-term ones DURING that one because she didn't mind me being with other...

    I don't think I even watched pr0n with any regularity until like 2006 (23 years old). Once I started having actual sex (late), suddenly pr0n became significantly more interesting. Before that, from 1996-2005 it was just the occasional Skinemax and thinking about girls I knew. I still kinda...

    Man, sometimes I read something that reminds me how black-pilled I am about the future. I actually regret not having kids, two particular girlfriends of mine (2008-2010 and 2012-2017) would have been great mom candidates, but I just had zero interest at the time. Which is one of the reasons...

    This is another thing I don't like about WoW (besides how it obsoletes content). You level so goddamn fast that you miss content unless you intentionally slow way down. You can either: A) Do everything in the early Northrend zones to get the most out of them, then be max level before you even...

    Probably by spamming dungeons the whole way while fighting random mobs in-between and looking at the cool trees. 90% sure that's how it went. Similar thing happened in TBC where by the time I got to Netherstorm, I did like two quests before I hit 70 and had the whole rest of the zone left...

    I played everything up through BFA. Legion was awesome. I'd like to revisit TBC and Wrath, with some vanilla zones early on (the Undercity area till like level 20 was my favorite, culminating with Shadowfang Keep). Ideally I could do that area until like 10, then Outland 10-30 and Northrend...

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

    Think all of those were brought on by human advancement? It's possible, modern humans have been around for, what, 150k-300k years in their current form. The general estimate being 200k, it's hard to believe that humans only got up to real civilization in the last 6000 years and just doddered...

    Things rustling my jimmies: 1) All the fucking crime, it's to the point that I barely go out at night and I live in one of the less-deadly areas 2) Groceries costing me $45 today for a gallon of milk, 5x canned goods, some seafood salad, a pack of hot dogs, relish, and buns. How in the blue...

    You're probably right, but I also think that if he sees the left making terrible choices, he'll call it out. He isn't the kind of guy who'll swallow his principles TOO much. ....once his Hollywood career has winded down. If he were to run in, say, 2032, it'll be because he's done making movies...

    Yeah, I thought about trying the Evoker/Drakwhatever, but that'd mean waiting till it's available and probably missing the Shadowlands content (seeing that is 50% of the reason for returning after all). Now that I look into it more, the Evoker class doesn't appeal to me much and the...

    I was gonna do a level 50 heroic boost to check out Shadowlands before this, but it looks like the game is wildly different from a few years ago so I think I'll start at level 1.

    That's probably the most interesting "weird shit from history" to me, the idea that we've had prosperous civilizations here before that blew themselves up. Whether it's the 12000 years ago stuff, Atlantis, or waaaaay in the Earth's past (end of the Ordovician era, etc) I find the concept...
