    I do think that is one thing D3 got right, and that was Adventure mode. I enjoy playing alts, but I don't enjoy running the same storyline multiple times.

    I played a bit more than that, and ironically I got pissed off chasing that same staff lol. Now that there are no more char wipes coming, I can just play whenever I want and feel like I'm not losing anything. All my shards and gear will carry over to the release.

    I hadn't played this game in a long while and got on last night with the new multi-player patch. I already liked the game, but they did a great job on improving the graphics , sounds, performance...everything. This was my favorite arpg prior to the update. Different strokes for different...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Whatever PoE chose to do with loot, it drove me away fairly quickly. Granted, I only played up to lvl 90 on 3+ toons or so. However, after the first week or so I can't think of one time that I saw a drop I was excited for. There was seemingly 11 million diff stats on every item that dropped...

    I like the end game progression and I like most of the classes. ARPGs at their core are basically all the same thing with a few different ideas here and there. I'd say a majority of them are fun to play through at least once. Some people love PoE, while I can't stand what it's become. 3...

    Guild Wars 2

    I went back and played GW2 for awhile and enjoyed it up until the expansion zones. I don't like the expansion zones at all. I joined the zerg to get my points to unlock the ascended class. Tried to enjoy the new content, but absolutely hated it. I enjoyed the vanilla zones of gw2 a hell of a...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Combat was certainly the Achilles heel of this game. Granted, I haven't played it since it was relevant and in Era. Despite the combat, I did enjoy my time there back when I played.

    They have said crafting mats are not going to be tradeable. So no SoJ equivalent here.

    Yea, not sure I understand the extreme fascination with trade here. I'm sure people will be target farming certain monoliths, but I'd assume that everyone running a specific mono for a specific item would just drop the group as soon as the desired item dropped, and not trade it. Though I do...

    Is the actual release going to be on the 9th? Or just the next major patch?

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Every one of these videos like this are staged. Everyone hopes to go viral with these stupid ass videos. Costs more money to take a family of 4 to a nice dinner than it costs to buy a 55 inch TV these days.

    AMC Theatres to Change Movie Ticket Prices Based on Seat Location

    I don't understand how these places are still open. We have a very nice theater in our area and there is almost never any business at all. Even driving by it on a Fri / Sat night....maybe 20 cars in the parking lot only. Back when large screen tvs were a luxury, I could see an appeal...

Now the regular season...

    College Football 2022-23 Season.

    The reality of the situation is that the more teams you add to the playoffs, the less exciting the regular season becomes. This is going to go 1 of 2 ways...and both suck. A) 12 to 16 team playoff....if you are ranked 1 - 12/16....your in. This means all your popular teams now can afford to...

    Lost Ark Online

    The roadblock you will most likely run in to is when you hit the daily chaos / guardian treadmill. This is where I believe that a majority of the player base either A) quit B) started betting. Very quickly you will hit that treadmill and you just have 1 main, you have 30 mins to an hour of...

    Granted, I only have about 300 hrs or so in PoE. In that 300 hours of playing, and having 6+ tools at 90+....I never once...not a single time....excited when loot dropped. PoEs Loot system and gearing system was so complicated that I never knew the value of anything that dropped.

    What are you playing?

    Guild Wars 2....played at launch about 10 years ago and quit. Game is in a pretty good spot now. No matter what single player game I get, I can't seem to stay interested too long. Played primarily ESO for the past 4 to 5 years and have given it up with all the changes.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    I've always suffered from upgradeitis when it comes to monitors and by the time I got what I wanted....something bigger or better came down the pipeline. Having said all that, I upgraded to an 48 inch LG C1 based on a bunch of recommendations and like it so much that I don't foresee any more...

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    I think one of my main issues are that some games have such awful areas that I quit out of spite and never even bother playing it enough to finish it. When I think about how long I've been gaming and how long it's been my hobby, I can't believe how few games I've actually seen from beginning to...

    Not a final area, but I literally can not stand the Animus bulllshit in any of the Asassians Creed games. Can be trucking along and fully immersed in whatever setting you are in...and BAM...next 20+ mins are walking around some skyscraper building or controlling a different toon looming at...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So does anyone have a 4090 yet? I thought $1600 was retarded, but it seems the only ones listed on Amazon are $2500. No fucking way. I'll play console games the rest of my life in that case. Just find it hard to justify a 3080ti or 3090ti at $1200ish, with the 4090 so much better listed at...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So what's the layman's opinion on everything they have heard about the 4090? I am still sitting on a 1080ti and looking to upgrade, and while I think $1600 is fucking absurd, so is $1200 for a 3090ti that's significantly less powerful. With a 850watt power supply, what is the real significance...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    So what is the consensus on buying a 3090ti vs maybe a 4090? I haven't upgraded in a few generations and currently have a 1080ti. Mostly game at 4k on a 48inch C1 monitor. Since I think that graphics have about hit their limit, I don't plan on upgrading again for another 4 to 5 years.

    I certainly agree with most of your points. I would venture to say that 90% of the games combat encounters last even less than 10 secs. The only time I worried about DoTs was during WB encounters and dungeon bosses. I do not like the changes as proposed at all so far. The game is certainly...
