    Path of Exile

    You probably did yourself a disservice by getting welfare. I honestly have the most fun in this game when I fresh hit Merc Lakes during a new league and I slowly get the chaos to buy decent rares then get the chaos to buy build defining uniques. Getting gifted all that really ruins that build...

    SNES Classic - 9/29 - $80

    I believe strictly legal speaking you can only play the ROM if you've extracted it from your own cart you own and possess. It is considered illegal to play the ROM of another cart. This isn't a Nintendo only thing AFAIK.

    SNES Classic - 9/29 - $80

    You're allowed to own/play the ROM if you've purchased the game. I don't think anyone advocating EmuStation and the entire SNES library owns every single SNES game ever made.

    Holy fuck everyone knows you can emulate on an RPI stop with this bullshit. You are not opening a single person's eyes.

    DOTA 2

    I know names are oft reused but it seems weird if you're a new'ish personality you wouldn't at least google your handle to make sure it wasn't already used by a fairly well known person in the esports sphere. I was really confused if Starcraft's Machine somehow rebirthed himself as a DOTA...

    This was fixed last time I played it on ZSNES. But yeah my first play through in high school on ZSNES had this issue.

    Thanks Lenny. Your review echos many of the reviews I've read. I think I'll hold off for the official release.

    Path of Exile

    They don't. Look at the steam charts. Path gets a huge explosion at the start of the league and then after a month they've lost the majority of the playerbase. There appears to be maybe 10k core players (at least on Steam, not sure how many launch direct) who stick around but the majority...

    Reviews on Steam say the game is somewhat shallow. In that the start is the best part but once you have everything set up it is kind of easy. Any accuracy to that? It looks like a fun game to me.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Robert wasn't always a drunk. I don't think he took the child's death as hard as Cersei but the Robert we know is what like 10 years removed from the event?

    It is a bit annoying that we're just following a cycle here. At the end of this season Richard has a hot property being courted by VCs and Gavin wants to buy them or crush them. This seems a bit too familiar.

    You think something like this happened? Cersei: Baby ded Robert: Oh that sucks let me see the body Cersei: Nah Robert: Oh ok. Well lets get a coffin for the child for the crypts and have a period of morning. Cersei: Nah I took it down there already its taken care of Robert: k

    The Fast Food Thread

    Tried this fast food joint called The Habit. It was ok. About as cheap to eat at as McD/InNOut. It was a decent burger but not great. The fries were really good. I'd give it a 3/5. InNOut is at like a 4.5/5. I doubt I'll ever go back to Habit even though it is slightly closer to my house.

    The contracts for such a thing would be a nightmare. Could they do it with all their 1st party? Sure easy. It gets far more complicated when you are dealing with massive amounts of 3rd party and many of them now defunct.

    RPI using EmuStation I consider a stopgap if you can't get something better. I think everyone who has the setup can attest that the input feels ever so slightly off and you can tell you're playing an emu.

    Chrono Trigger is pretty readily available everywhere and the DS version is the best version anyways. While it would be a great addition I don't have much heartburn over it being absent.

    He's also super deadly in team fights and doesn't rely completely on flick shots on the shotgun. I actually think he's fun to play and fun to play against now.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think his complaint is about the PoE engine and the complaints are valid. Combat is very unsatisfying in PoE and feedback is almost non-existant. Some skills are better than others than side stepping how stiff everything feels but in the end you are just having shorter bursts of downtime...

    Overwatch

    I still prefer Zen to Mercy as primary support. The only thing better than bringing everyone back from the dead is ensuring they don't die in the first place. Plus Zen can really frag out if you're good with his projectile and he works out better in dive comps.

    No that won't work for me. I should have specified the "window" is a patio slider. My windows in the house also operate horizontally instead of vertically so the typical window fans wouldn't work out.

    Does anyone have a recommendation on a fan to pull air from outside in? Something like a box fan but I was hoping for it to be a tad less of an eye sore.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    They're actually super unfun to play. It appeals to a certain niche but I can't seem to get past the first couple zones until I give up. It is the definition of the gameplay is simply getting gooderer.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Although it is mostly a single player experience Van Helsing looks and plays fairly well for an ARPG. Like others have said PoE is super, super stiff and has it's own host of problems.

    Ana in general isn't great on KOTH. Even during the height of Ana meta you'd sometimes see Zen ran instead of her on some KOTH points. She also makes a pretty sub-optimal support to run with Pharah because Pharah requires too much attention. Pharah is all about taking some chip damage that...
