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

    I didn't try rebuilding the DB but that won't really help with the fact it's SATA2 with a shitty HDD in there to begin with. It's like if I install a game on my HDD on PC, it's gonna load like shit too. When I say like shit I don't necessarily mean 3mins of loading time, but 20+secs is already...

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

    I'm basically done with this gen, might grab some jrpg or whatever if they release only on PS4 but most of them nowadays release on PC too. I have an old brick noisy PS4 with its slow as fuck loading times and I just can't be bothered playing anything on it. At this point I just hope the PS5 is...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    WHM does look quite a lot worse for raiding though currently due to weird design. They don't have party damage buffs AND they have worse personnal DPS. They have higher healing output but that's always been of kinda limited use depending on the difficulty of the content. They should just buff...

    Monster Hunter: World

    It's only 2 weeks at first but I believe it comes back pretty often on PS4 so even if you miss this event you can do it later and stuff.

    JRPGs

    Yes PS4 EU version is the only one delayed. Steam and other PS4 regions should be unaffected(EU is also AU on PSN I think so that might be the same not sure). High res texture pack should be bigger, maybe you download the compressed version, but game is 86gb or whatever with high res texture...

    JRPGs

    It's delayed for Europe at least, 26th or something. I think it should be up for the other regions.

    Path of Exile

    Korrupts had dozens of sets to give away not long ago so you could keep trying. I don't think T16maps were that rare though and mostly I just bought more when I was doing the fight for the first time, it's easy enough to buy sets, since they're valuable enough that people will actually answer...

    Twitch.tv

    Vermintide 2 does the twitch interaction thing nicely enough. Basically every minute(or less if you set it up), there's an A/B vote for Twitch that will do 2 things. The things are picked randomly although there's some sort of rules to prevent too stupid shit. Generally twitch chat will always...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I mean the way it's setup you'll have a full week to check the game out from people playing the premier EA access shit on twitch, so in a way it's much better than review embargo until launch and shit. If it's bad then you won't have to buy it and if it's good then you can just buy it, so don't...

    Torrents

    What do people use nowadays to download torrents? I'm still using uTorrent on my old PC, it's an old ass version from before they plastered ads everywhere but since I'll be switching to another PC as my torrent PC I figure I should use something that was actually made in the past decade or so...

    Playstation 5

    There's no way consoles go past 60 next gen, there's no reason to, they don't even go to 60 consistently currently and if they increase the image quality further and keep doing 4k, there's just not going to be a way to display that at more than 60FPS anyway. Like even currently on PC to get 4K...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    The trick to claw machines is to no try to actually grab stuff and instead pull/push stuff around or get any sort of part stuck into the claw(like the labels or knots or whatever). But yeah I guess otherwise you're right, I didn't know they adjusted the strength of the claws based on payout...

    Playstation 5

    Unless it comes out with some wicked exclusives, I'll probably do what I did with the PS4 and buy one 1.5years later when the price drops(or well try to, last time I bought one 3months before the price drops because I wanted to play Bloodborne, which in retrospect wasn't worth not waiting).

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah it's slow as shit which takes some time to get used to. Gets kinda better when you have more abilities especially oGCDs but not every class does. I like it though, less frantic button mashing than some of the shit in wow used to be(probably still is but haven't played in forever).

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Claw machines aren't gambling, you put money in then you play a game of skill to get a prize you selected. You can see what you get, and there's no randomness involved(well not more than anything else). That's quite a big difference from paying money to get a random reward with hidden odds...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    The new trailer is way way better than the older ones though. Like yeah the game is still a bunch of shit and an overpriced scam scheme, but graphically you can clearly see massive improvements over time. Even the last time they showed Squadron42 shit to now is a huge improvement. The main...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Reading an old guide, apparently that was a thing, although I don't remember doing it. You could tank swap to a warlock for shadow resist on the caster. Flipside is if you fucked up the swapping and you had the melee emp on your warlock, you were going to get ass raped. I think we just had...

    Path of Exile

    They don't? They just buy them. Tabula you can farm yourself in Acqeducts once you're near the end of the leveling, it's good xp, easy layout, you can farm it nicely before you finish Kitava and lose your resists, get all the cards for it in 1-4hours depending on RNG, less if you just buy the...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Meh, having Obsidian games on Windows Store only would mean I'm not buying them. Plus who knows what they'll be doing in 2years when they release the Xbox 8 Infinity and decide that instead of letting devs do whatever they want, they should stop and make new Xbox 8 Infinity exclusive games...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    At 15(or 20 I forgot) it was the super useful Aquatic Travel Form. The shit you used like twice for questing and never again. Good for fishing tournaments way later when they added that iirc though, although Shaman water walking was better I think.

    I remember we took a chinese farmer from Azshara to MC and gave him all the rogue drops for fun. He loved it and kept saying thanks stuff in broken english and when we were going again and shit. I think he got banned not long after, he was one of these guys that had several Krol Blades for sale...

    Thing is, let's say he wants to play at most 5 other games than HS per month(maybe more, maybe less but that's just a number). He has the choice between some 10k/h shitty mobiles and some 5k/h blockbuster AssCreed/Farcry/CoD/BF shit or some 1k/h indie game that he actually likes/want to play(say...

    Have to consider it from a long term(or well medium term) point of view. Playing garbage games for 10k might hurt your viewership, which will then snowball into losing a fuckton of money later on. Anyway this isn't too surprising although a bunch of people weren't aware of the kind of money...

    Monster Hunter: World

    IG is pretty simple but has some quirks. Do look up a basic guide because I've heard ppl using the IG and not finding out about buffs until 15+hours in, and that's basically like using Lance and not using your shield. Really it's just, ALWAYS have red buff on. You should never do anything but...

    Been looking at various parts and stuff since I'll be building a PC by the end of the year or so. It's pretty funny how little choice there is for a case that doesn't have all these fucking stupid ass lights or transparent facades so you can see all the stupid lights on all the fucking parts...

    Total War: Warhammer

    They are updating VC in the same patch, skill tree and mechanics. They're also adding a free DLC in that patch, although it'll be TW:W2 stuff, new lord for something not sure what, maybe Malus maybe Lizard. They should definitely patch more often but eh. I assume Greenskins and Empire will get...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Some news, not too surprisingly, the next race pack for TW:W2 is the Vampire Coast army. It seems they actually made a full army, at least with a bunch of unique units that I don't think existed in the tabletop version. Looks pretty damn cool. Also seems to add what the naval battle mod did, so...

    Monster Hunter: World

    From what I've seen in most situations, pulling doesn't save you that much time is all I was saying. It does save you time and ultimately in the long run you might want to do it if you're chain farming for efficiency, since it's still going to save you something like 10-20secs on a 2-3mins kill...
  33. Pyros

    Monster Hunter: World

    Shoot flash or sound things at the ground, monsters will come closer, reduces the amount of time it takes to farm. Honestly if you're not speedrunning it doesn't save that much time, and some places/monsters it's not that useful I think.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Dungeons actually get faster when you level up, vanilla dungeons I think are the slowest overall. They won't get crazy faster, but 15mins or so is more typical of a post vanilla dungeon(even in vanilla, once you start hitting the 50 stuff it starts going faster too). Obviously once in a while...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah those tend to be pretty good for AU/NZ play but also in general when playing mmos because you never know when some fuckers will decide to not repair lines or route everyone in the evening through the same shit and basically make it unplayable. I'd say in modern times, having a VPN available...

    RIP Telltale Games

    I guess in a world where your social justice score is the only relevant value, meritocracy would put this score over all other things, because you "earned" your rank/position by being the best most progressive most accepting most allied greatest person/perdaughter in the world.

    RIP Telltale Games

    The sales would probably have been good enough if they had the right amount of people working on each of these games. Which would be less than 10 per project probably, with some overlap between concurent projects for some position. The games really didn't need 50people to work on them for what...

    Na horde, I can't really remember threat ever being an issue when I was tanking, until AQ at least. But I think we always had a shaman in tank group though, the guild leader. We had one in every group iirc, and some groups had 2, lots of shamans in our guild.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Thing about threat is it only mattered when people were threat capped which didn't happen all that much until fury actually became good, which as far as I remember was around AQ40 too or maybe some point during BWL once people started getting geared there but at that point everything was on farm...
