    Matchmaking Update | Dota 2 Pretty big changes to matchmaking. Have to link a phone to play ranked, solo queue has an option to only match with solo players, ranked penalty for ppl who get low prio too often on top of having to get out, bunch of anti botting and anti griefing changes...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Apparently got into the Necro beta so went and tested that, class is pretty fun. Not "I'm gonna pay some money for it" fun though. Lots of interesting synergies and shit, the sets should define the gameplay more I guess but kinda liked it, got it to 67 or something and stopped cause no real...

    Since I had to do that recently too, make sure you run every dungeon once for the first time bonus even the older ones, so you can buy those i250pieces or whatever lvl they are. That and Khloe got me enough, but I had returnee chocobo feathers thing which give you a weapon and chest/legs of the...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Bunch of bullshit talk and not much new interesting stuff, other than a couple of things. First, the Vortex stuff that serves as the main objective during the campaign isn't necessary to win they say, so I assume you can just win by simply eradicating all other threats. Second, they mention...

    Translation seems fine, but it's kinda literal at times. If you're a weeb master, you've been watching japanese stuff with subs and literal translations for a while(like most of the stuff on crunchysubs), so you'll notice certain phrases and expressions that are literal translation of japanese...

    Hearthstone

    The last good neutral healing card, antique healbot, was used by a fairly wide variety of classes and decks(really almost everything but aggro decks). Everything since has been pretty garbage in comparison so not used as much, other than Reno but that required specific deck building which...

    Right now I think Paladin, Monks and White Mages are the pariahs in each archetype. That said only relevant for Savage pubs/statics application or whatever, if you're just fucking around doing easier content, no one gives a shit, especially for PLD/WHM. Also not unlike wow, the differences are...

    Was expecting Skaven at the very end of the trailer, moving in the shadows or some shit, wasn't disapointed. Anyway day one, really enjoyed the first, even bought some of the DLC when I usually don't buy DLC and thought they were worth it(the ones I bought, the other ones looked flimsy tbh and...

    Probably doesn't mean much overall since the passwords were encrypted, some companies keep that shit in plain text and that's where it goes to shit, or save CC info and shit(like Sony with PSN a few years back and Yahoo a few times in the past 10years and so on). Not like I'd have much to lose...

    DOTA 2

    As long as it has TP scrolls it'll be useful. I guess the tradeoff now for sidelanes is, either get stout first and mitigate harass so you don't use as many consumables but have to wait for courier to bring slippers which can fuck with your mid timings, or buy slippers but risk taking more...

    DOTA 2

    He's good at shredding an entire team with spells IF he can stay close enough for the passive to proc and alive long enough to unload a few rotations. Aka not very good most of the time. He used to be a bit better but various buffs to a lot of other heroes made him worse in comparison and his...

    Well I mean the fact it's super RNG doesn't really make it better, if anything it's just worse. Sure it doesn't affect balance much because it's so rare but then, why? Why not just give tokens, and you can buy a guaranteed weapon after 20tokens, or if you find one before. And then you nerf the...

    Yeah I saw ppl complaining on reddit. It's end of the expansion time though, it's probably not that far until they increase the highest tome cap to 2000 per week and everyone could have geared decently anyway. It's all gonna mean jackshit in a few months. They'll probably want to make sure it...

    Path of Exile

    I mean the dmg is for sure getting gutted, but the concept of the build might also simply not work. The point of the build really is the fact the AW autosummon more AW, that's great because summoning AW is easily the worst part of the build(and ppl used totems to do it but imo using totem is...

    Path of Exile

    Yeah it looked neat, although I think it might actually disapear with the future poison/double dip changes they have since it's the result of some weird interactions where stuff that dies from poison is credited as kill to you even if you didn't apply the poison yourself, at least from what I...

    I don't really read much of anything there other than official GGG posts and stuff like build compilations for new leagues by streamers and new tools/itemfilters threads, and I rarely read the comments in any of these either.

    Her ultimate sounds dumb. As in, it'll probably stack with mercy dmg amp/ana amp, but unlike these 2 being in a team together giving you a weird healing setup, here it's tank/heal combo so should be a lot smoother, and once you have both, shit just becomes broken. Maybe they'll make it not stack...

    There's also the "get some invader with a ghost while you have rampage between 400 and 490 in range of a bloodline and abaxoth while under the effect of a tempest" kind of shit. Some of these are gonna be real annoying to get even if you have all 3 leagues on I think. And yeah the get everyting...

    Yeah hard to tell if the description is XI or XIV 1.0. Game is now FF flavored WoW with slow combat. For better or for worse, that depends on your tastes, but you can in fact jump, the hills aren't copy pasted more than any other game(and the game is generally great to look at) and the NPCs are...

    Path of Exile

    They added a system that picks a target in a thin cone in front of you instead of just in a line like before so it's easier to hit stuff with melee skills. Also Frostblade has a stupid range modifier so even though it's a melee attack, you can hit stuff really far from your character(on top of...

    Treshold changes could help. Specifically they're adding a zombie treshold for the good ole zombie army build, the skeleton treshold might not be as shit anymore(but skeletons will probably still be shit), animate weapon jewel might be better although really all it needs is to be more available...

    I think most ppl play SC, but most people also stop playing the temp leagues like halfway once they're done with the challenges and stuff. A few ppl also play standard regardless.

    Reminder that they said there's gonna be a bunch of balancing changes, including shit to nerf double dipping mechanics. Although maybe not duration, but still if you design any build atm, have to remember that. They're releasing a manifesto today I think about some of the upcoming changes.

    Basically that's just all it is, a way to keep a ladder of SSF people for vanity/e-peen that's legit instead of the player ran honor based systems there were before. If at any point you stop giving a fuck, you can just convert your char back into the normal leagues anyway. I guess it was...

    Well first for the timers and shit, I was talking of this Releases · anoyetta/ACT.SpecialSpellTimer · GitHub I think. I've seen various screens but since I don't play atm I haven't tested. It's basically ACT plugins that put various info from ACT into visual form, by adding spell timers/duration...

    I wouldn't say skilled players get nothing, they get easier rotations, so less attention required which gives more time to react to raid shit without fucking up cause you were trying to push that perfect rotation. It also possibly means your rotation gets less fucked by being targetted by stuff...

    Meh PLD aggro was only an issue from like 30 to 40 or so I wanna say, when the DPS get their jobs so start doing some more serious damage, and you get...whatever the fuck you get at 30 I forgot, so you fall behind. Before 30 though I didn't have much of an issue. In general I didn't have much of...

    Yeah hopefully they went in depth enough with the reworks so all the whiners complaining about the lack of new healer/tanks get to play the older classes but more unique and clearly defined. Not that they'll stop whining, lots of people are super negative about the new classes being DPS even...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well can assume rotations will change a lot with the expansion anyway, so Dragoon might not be as shit to play later on. Do expect SAM DPS though, it makes sense for them to just add more DPS classes when most people play DPS anyway. Kinda sucks as I wanted a new healer/tank but eh, maybe the...

    Got a callback invite thing so picked this up earlier this week to get the story done before I really start playing again later a bit before the expansion. Took longer than I thought to get through, mostly cause of i230 req on the last step, but wasn't so bad overall. Had to redo Final steps...

    They can also just add more acts. I mean not sure how the story ends now obviously, but our exile might have to go kick some ass in some other dimension, alternate plane or just another country somewhere(I don't think the world is only Wraeclast and Oriath). It'd just be another act at the end...

    It's different from D3 yeah. In D3, you play the game once(assuming you're a new player, if you're not you don't ever do story again), then you do rifts/bounties. Bounties are just the same game but you only do sort of sidequests shit in the same areas as the story ones, while rifts are entirely...

    But they're perfect ancients, the odds of you having perfect/near perfect ancients before GR70 are like stupid low unless you're just botting rifts or whatever. On top of that they don't actually fuck the balance further by being more powerful than ancients, so sounds pretty good. I assume...

    Looks like some great stuff, not having to replay the game over and over is a great change for people who just want to level new chars and stuff. Sure the 2nd part reuses a ton of stuff but it's still different, the video they showed of the differences shows different weather/daytime(so the...
