    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Walk into a store you frequent, get a shopping cart, walk up and down some of the isles, then put the shopping cart back in its stable and leave.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That's really too bad to hear. I liked very much when Azerite armor was added to emissaries as it gave a chance to get some higher level versions of pieces I liked but didn't really exist in any practical way. I was hoping the new system would be on top of that system. I wouldn't (and assume...

    I can't wait for the first Q&A after Classic launches where Ion explains that all of the out of era features they implemented without telling anyone that people didn't want were a good thing and that the additional out of era features they are planning on implementing are also a good thing...

    I think when they have a guest they try and film a bunch of stuff. When those two Canadians are about you tend to get more than one episode of stuff with them, when they had director Simon Barrett he was in a Best of the Worst as well as a Re:View of his movie The Guest, there was a comic book...

    Path of Exile

    I understand that when I explode it's almost certainly my fault but without a death recap I often have absolutely zero idea what happened. Tell me how much damage I took in the last couple of seconds by each ability name as well as the damage type(s) and how much I was overkilled by. That way...

    I just started playing PoE a couple of weeks ago and with WoW's mechanics fresh in my mind still I was dumbstruck how different they were in philosophy.

    Death of a Game - Everquest franchise

    The exp rate was slow on Phinny and is slow on Coirnav. It distills leveling down to grouping and to doing that grouping in a handful of zones. Combined with instancing that's just what you do. Sure, some people have their own little sweet spots and coordinated premades have some additional...

    They weren't kidding, this was really good. For having the basic "dark secret in the heart of suburbia" framework it kept me guessing with some good twists and turns before turning up the heat for the entire second half. Very happy with it.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    All damage reduced by 5%. Mind Sear damage increased by 20%. Void Torrent damage increased by 20%, now generates 25 Insanity over its duration, and no longer requires Voidform. These notes make me empathize with the androids -

    Odd and Even have spawned several really good decks, it's just a little hamfisted for my taste as a mechanic.

    Everquest - Coirnav Progression Server

    I've been on some splits that struggled and I've been on some splits that were the A Team and rarely could I have told you ahead of time which ones were going to be which. Usually everything just went fine for everyone. If I was in a guild that was routinely making failure teams with the same...

    What did you just read?

    I just finished Kill All Normies. It's about chan culture, toxic elements of the internet, and the alt-right. And it's fucking hilarious. The audiobook is like having the narrator from The Second Renaissance - explain 4chan and all the vile shit connected to it. It's not too long and is a...

    Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

    I like the game so much I was willing to mindless grind in search of a level cap and to see if anything weird happened with items and/or crafting. It's a steal for ten dollars. It's 100% pointless but I do find it interesting that crafted gear just seems to scale forever even if everything...

    They Shall Not Grow Old (2018)

    I just finished watching it and thought it was just alright. Reducing the first world war, even focusing just on the British, down to 109 minutes doesn't really do it justice. In its presentation the scope and duration is really lacking.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I expected the reveal to be that the sword itself was driving people on both sides to violence through some malign psychic influence. That's why, despite everything accomplished in Legion, the two sides were back at each other's throats. Maybe one of the sword's powers is to make everyone...

    It's one more thing they made a decision to do worse than the previous expansion stacked on top of all of the other shit they did worse stacked on top of a leveling system that is ugly enough to do from start to finish that when weighed against my desire to see the other side of the story on a...

    Systems that encourage players to make and level alts help player retention. Alts keep people playing, let them experience aspects of the game they otherwise were not going to, and see more of the story. Well, they would if leveling wasn't ass.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    ...why? I really appreciated how in Legion when I went to make a Demon Hunter after leveling my first character to 110 that the mission table had +exp awards and that the invasions were piles and piles of experience. It was like getting a pat on the head for having going through the leveling...
