    I don't remember UO doing any of this. It had plenty of completely worthless skills that people only used to get perfect stats(anatomy, the thing to check the target's inteligence to lvl int, spirit speak and so on) and the only exploration skill really was Sneak, which was definitely very cool...

    Well while I like combat to have limited skills, I really liked all the fluff spells say in Vanguard or I guess original EQ, stuff like Levitate, Tracking, Invis, Sneak and all that sort of shit that's not directly combat related. So while I'm all for limiting combat skill slots in hotbar...

    Time and Eternity (PS3)

    That first trailer is like one of the worst trailer I've ever seen. Might buy it, apparently it's already out in europe for some reason.

    If you look at FFXIV though, that doesn't mean 4. They managed to make a control scheme that lets you use like 32 abilities and potentially more if you swap bars, so in theory you could play EQ2 with a PS controller(it would be a fucking horrible experience however).

    DOTA 2

    I guess because Unstable Concoction was buffed to not be as shitty anymore and the hero is overall fairly strong with all the recent buffs, plus he doesn't really have to build health, only armor and then stack as much damage as possible. By reducing the ulti health, you might want to pick up a...

    FPS doesn't necessarily mean twitch fast paced gameplay. It could be "realistic" FPS where you don't swing your 60kg 2H axe every second but instead have long windups and need to make sure you connect with specific parts of the monsters to inflict more damage(localized dmg, variable depending on...

    It is assumed that Archer should still do reasonable damage, even though you lose the additional spells from having a job. You'll be able to cross class every damage boost though, like the 20% dmg from Lancer, the 300TP from lancer also, the 20%crit from pugilist and Mercry Stroke which is an...

    Technically, as far as current content is concerned, you only need to do the main story quest to do the first 3 instances and the mini ifrit event thing. All the further dungeons aren't part of the main quest and you can do them directly or by picking up a single step quest(NPC tells you to go...

    Funny part is since not everyone wants the same amount of old and new anyway, there's gonna be people excited and people disapointed regardless of what they chose.

    Right, unless we're very lucky and they change their mind and add them for phase4(open beta) but most likely not before launch. I was just referring to books because they use multiple types of components, threads made by weavers, leather by leatherworker or ingots by armor/weapon and raw wood...

    It was just played so vod isn't up yet, will be on BTS stream videos though. And watched what you posted when it aired yesterday it was a pretty cool game.

    Yeah noticed these before, they're pretty nice. On crafting, there's a lot of reliance on other tradeskills to do shit, like tools you make are pretty much always for another crafting class so if you want HQ tools(and you do if you want to make HQ shit) you'll need to buy them from other...

    Dota2 is free btw, or well even if you were to buy a key it's like 1cent, but you can get dota keys by the dozen for free on reddit or using dota2bot. Anyway seems like quite the stupid test regarding keyboard turning in mmo, unless you like don't use edge pan camera or something. Similar for...

    I used autohotkey for this kind of stuff, but it requires to actually look into it a bit to understand how to make the macros, it's not like super friendly(but you can do more stuff including rebinding keys when stupid games don't recognize certain keys as bindable). Autoit is another but...

    Kick-starter: Satellite Reign (Syndicate Wars)

    It's wrong in both, as well as in the code when you use a quote. Not sure how the link ends up being right for you, maybe different brower that corrects backslashes as slashes, but on Firefox clicking the kickstarter link brings you to a 404. Removing the backslash fixes it.

    I wouldn't mind Vanguard 2, as long as it has a good engine, which EQN will have I assume since they're probably gonna be using PS2 and that's pretty nice.

    Yeah not backing a jrpg, it's impossible to tell if it's going to be good or not because the main aspect for the quality of an old school jrpg imo is the story. From a quick look the characters look uninspired and generic and the story/world bits don't seem very interesting either so not getting...

    Well right now the quest stops a bit early to tell how it's gonna be, but it seems to be heavily inspired by older FFs stories. You have various monster tribes trying to resurect their primals(ifrit garuda ramuh etc) and you have an evil Empire using magitek(gunblades, airships, FF6 magitek mech...

    The consensus is NOT that AM is the hardest carry. The consensus is that AM reaches 6 slots faster than almost everyone else, that he gets there easier than most carries because of his natural hard to gank status and that he's definitely among the strongest lategame carries when 6 slotted...

    Mortal Online - UO Meets SWG

    I don't know what state the game is in, but when it released it was basically an alpha you had to pay and sub for. Even my friends who played Darkfall didn't bother with this. Mostly there was a horrible netcode so everything was warping/sliding around and you had rubberbanding all over the...

    Logged in for a bit to check out gathering speed, it goes pretty fast with rested xp but I don't know about doing it otherwise feels like a huge chore in the early levels at least.

    You've never played a smurf account if you think a 25mins radiance wouldn't win you the game at low tier.

    DOTA 2

    A realistic time isn't 16mins, it's like 20mins. 25mins is a bad time but still will work out at low tier. It doesn't matter that it's a horrible time at high tier because you're playing low tier. You should strive to improve but there's no point in giving figures that are unrealistic for a...

    Early radiance is fine if it's quick, especially if it's a naked radiance you want it at 20 at most imo, but 25 should be fine in lower tiers. If you don't get the best laning possible I'd just go for a more midgame spectre build. Phase, drums, diffusal, yasha, maybe orb of venom. You can kill...

    Well it's all the same, the quests/event type lets you direct people into certain places, tell them "you're level X you should go here it's the right place for you" instead of having to figure it out/explore or whatever. Which I don't think is a terrible way to go about it, directing players to...

    Event based instead of quest based, you go to a place where something is happening(scripted event) and complete whatever objective is needed in that area to get a reward, vs talking to some guy who then sends you to the place and requires you come back and talk to him at the end.
