    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I even liked the crafting quests in Legion. That were also shitcanned because bitchy Karen couldn't stand the thought that she had to ENTER A STUPID DUNGEON to progress a profession and get, "rare" recipes. Blows my mind that became a thing. The plague of accessibility really rustles me. While...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Crafting being pointless is something I never understood in their changes. Having to go on cool quests for rare schematics and stuff was interesting. Choosing between two paths of weaponsmith/armorsmith/gnomish tinkering/etc was also interesting and cool. Weapons like Stormherald were cool...

    I believe the correct phrase is, "the market can stay irrational for longer than you can stay solvent."

    Unfortunately that just comes with the territory these days I guess. As we have discussed forever the design tenets of modern MMOs run counter to MMO as a genre.

    You bought nothing on the way down? Doesn't seem like an ideal moment to jump in with that much cash to me.

    You think these nerfs will work to increase the DH winrate again?

    Hearthstone

    I don't get the Sac Pact changes. It's been in the game since the beginning and nobody cared that it could kill some neutral demons. Can't have the new class you filled up with minions weak against the one class that also has demons galore now can we?

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    Yah. Compared to EQ WOW didn't really have a lot of off the beaten path places. There were loads of dungeons I barely ever set foot in in Everquest. Zones too. If you wanted to take the road less traveled in Everquest you REALLY could.

    VALORANT - Riot Games

    When I am watching people who have a lot of CSGO time they are mainly doing what you said. Being really cautious and waiting for someone to turn the corner. I used to play a lot of CS like a lot of us here did. So I am surprised when they use abilities rather than just play like a monkey on...

    So when Delores can make perfect duplicates of people like the Scottish security guy there's really no point in these cloak and dagger shenanigans.

    Everquest Mysteries

    Correct me if I am wrong here but I seem to recall the Moss Covered Twig originally being a main hand item and not an off hand one. Which is why it was busted at 3 dmg 10 delay. His #1 as Kerafrym is stupid though.

    What did you just read?

    It's 9 volumes you can start wherever. Just look up Florentine Codex and you can choose whatever topic. Additionally I liked this one: This is the video that got me interested in it. There is a series of novels that draws heavily from the Florentine Codex called the Aztec that is also...

    What did you just read?

    Started reading some of the Florentine Codex now that I heard some of it in various youtube history lectures. Just reading about First Contact you kind of have to feel for Cortez. Cortez was quite cordial on the first meeting. Thought it was cool they brought some gifts and shit on the beach...

    I just have no interest in playing X:Com: Five-O man. The streets are mean. But criminal aliens are meaner doesn't really have the same appeal of prevent global extermination of viva la resistance

    XCOM Chimera Squad

    Not getting a real Xcom vibe from this. No base or campaign management? No research trees? I have like a thousand hours between Xcom 1 2 and the expansions but IDK what this is exactly. XCOM: Police isn't being made for someone like me.

    Albatross? Can't have one shitty card as a safety valve against powerful highlander decks now can we!? Nerfing sac pact now is just dumb too. The only reason that card has seen play is because you introduced another class that has tons of demons in it's core set.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For sure. I'll keep saying it but the most terrible legacy of WOW is the hard split of factions within these games. That shit needs to die and it needed to die as a MMO tenet 10 years ago.

    Hearthstone

    IDK, I would argue the only tempo loss you have is if you don't play something in the next two turns. So your tempo is only lost the turn you play it. While your opponent has to play shit they can use immediately or has a fat ass that won't get killed by the Antean or by any removal you use...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah that mask had a lot of utility too. Looking like a Dark Elf granted you ultravision. The supreme night vision of Everquest. On the other side of it Dark Elves were not Kill On Sight in some "good" locations like Freeport. So if you were a Troll or Ogre you would not only benefit from the...

    The only thing I really hate about Demon Hunter is all of their shit can do face damage. Forcing anything in a Demon Hunter meta to have healing or armor to survive. In addition to as much removal as you can handle because the DH will absolutely draw 2/3 of their deck before you draw half...

    I've been trying to put together a control warrior deck but so far it's just lost too many tools. There's a lot of card draw and board clear available to you but no value engine. I went into fatigue with a demon hunter and won but it took a long time. A lot less fun to play than Dr. Boom...

    The only cool thing this season is the hunt for the true AI. The Humanity Guide or whatever the fuck it's called. It's totally inscrutable and alien. But I am sure once Delores gets the master code she will just hack it instantly.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    This is compounded by the fact that a lot of the shit you would be working on has not integrated, and never will, the more modern features that have been jerry rigged into COBOL systems. Such as OOO principles and the use of libraries. So, "hey Dave we need a Datediff() for whatever" becomes a...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    My first job offer out of University finishing a CS program was to work at Raymond James Financial in Tampa, Florida. Where they would have trained me to be a COBOL developer. Now, I had only heard of COBOL from my Dad who learned some of it at university back in the 70s. Also from a few older...

    Big Druid is such a boring ass deck to play though. Did you draw Dragon's Breath and Overgrowth with the Sidequest? Proceed to win. Oh you didn't? Die.

    Evolve shaman is pretty fun. They put in some necessary speedbumps and setup required to make it work. But at the same time it is now real hit or miss. I really liked Dragon Hunter before the expansion came out. It's just okay now.
