    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I remember playing an RPG called Gates of Macrohard that was very rudimentary, circa 1995 or so, on PC. I think I figured out how to edit the maps (or there was an editing tool) because I remember trying to turn the game into a weird Final Fantasy knockoff using .ico files I found online of...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Is this map pretty up-to-date? It's missing Lonely Mountain, off the top of my head, and maybe some of Mordor? But I think that might be it. I'm kinda surprised they haven't filled in more of the west coastal regions like Lindon. Same question with this one, how up to date? Pretty helpful map...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah that snow town with the archers is what I was talking about. Worst place in the game. Since you've got that place and the tree out of the way it's pretty much smooth sailing to the end now. Only other particularly tough fights are the two Mohgs, the Dragonlord in the flying area, and maybe...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    These videos are great, but I'd enjoy them a lot more if the dialogue resembled the presidents more instead of just the voices. They all talk just like characters in a Wojak skit and it takes me out of it pretty hard.

    Metroid Prime Remastered

    Much as I would have liked a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD, it's cool to get it in this form with some extra oomph. I just hope MP2 isn't too far off because I was all ready to play it as soon as I finished this. MP3 is kinda whatever for me but it has some great moments.

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    Sekiro is in my top five shortlist. I mean it's right there near the top of the list. I'm like half a step from playing it at any given time. Same with the Niohs. I think it might fit in somewhere soon.

    Cities Skylines II

    Oh nice. Yeah the original is awesome. Looking at this trailer makes me wonder who the terrible urban planner was who built a main highway that'd have everyone driving directly into the sun during morning rush hour.

    Everquest Confessions

    This is a cool idea. I got scr00d on the first one and it brought the score way down. Kaesora and Dalnir are mixed up in my head. This last one was just a complete wild guess on my part. Very unfamiliar with Plane of Mischief, but it looked like what I remember the zone looking like, and I...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    I was looking at some maps of how the game is now. It's humongous, maybe bigger than WoW's surface area. Especially without flying mounts to smallify the world. Every time I thought I'd seen all of it I'd find some new set of maps for some coastal land I'd never heard of or something. It was a...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I wonder about the feasibility of doing an Agnarr 2 server at this point in time, then merging the original into it a month into PoP. Could be pretty lively if marketed right. I'd rather see a new idea for an event server using that same concept though. Maybe a Kerafyrm server that starts in TSS...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Oh, now things make a bit more sense. Yeah I only wish I had Kronos to Lord. I could play for free with multiple accounts for a couple years thanks to my Vaniki work at least. Making all AAs purchasable at 50 would be reaaaaally interesting. I imagine it'd take ages to earn them when the top...

    So...Vaniki with normal levels, at a slightly earlier point, without the achievement carrot? I don't buy it, but given how daft some of the TLP ideas have been...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Yeah, I would never rely on something like this as my source of employment and the GM thing is a big part of that. You could get an entire box operation shut down in an instant and lose God knows how much accumulated krono. I don't know how this discussion turned into "lol $87k is nothing" and...

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    If you want to do perfect parries there is a rhythm to it, like Genichiro has that 1, 2, 3456, 7, 8 pattern to his flurry. Maybe "rhythm game" is the wrong term, but game with rhythm elements? @Seananigans pls advise

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    WELLLLLL? Just realized a bunch of these have been spotted over Syria and Iran. The top suspects for it being advanced human technology are obviously the US, Russia, and China, but I'd say it's equally possible it's Israel. Blows me away how they've been allowed to do so much off-books weapons...

    Sports Entertainment

    Aside from MJF accidentally throwing tequila in a little kid's face and probably getting the company sued, yeah, it was a pretty solid night. The match quality was nuts. Only weak link was Wardlow/Joe, but Wardlow gon' get pushed. Nice enough guy and I want him to do well, but IDK, it isn't...

    Weird games that don't deserve their own thread

    Got Powerwash Simulator on PS5. Not a bad deal for $25. Good game to relax with after a long day when you're too tired to engage with anything more substantial. It just got a Final Fantasy 7 themed DLC addition too at no extra charge, which is what put it over the top for me. I bet a few people...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Naw bro, that DoN crystal farm I talked about above was pretty much the height of me "kronolording" or manipulating markets. As much as one can actually do those things as a solo SK on a -10 level server. I've still got the majority of the kronos I made from that DoN thing too, nobody's paying...

    I can handle the graphics. I played Elder Scrolls Arena and Daggerfall for the first time in 2014 and loved the hell out of them.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Since it doesn't matter anymore, here's how I farmed a ton of my kronos on Vaniki. Farmed one particular DoN mission solo at level 60, had two AFK characters sitting outside to get 3x the crystals, proceeded to sell said crystals at the end of every session and convert the plat into kronos. Rate...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I'm gonna have a lot of free time from May to about August, working very part-time (like 15 hours a week). So I need to figure out what time sink I want to take on during that timeframe: Go balls to the wall with this new EQ project of doing an RTS box crew FF12-style, or go balls to the wall...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    That's pretty stunning. I'd like to be that guy at one point. Turning EQ into a meta-game. At least on a temporary basis, because at the end of the day it isn't worth it for time invested as a job. What I'm talking about is maximizing that month of hardcore playing that I tend to do once a year...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    All true, but there's an appeal to it for sure. Turning EQ into a temporary job will either kill the fun or make it a lot more fun. For me I've pretty much done everything in EQ in the past and the game just isn't that interesting, so turning it into a meta-game of sorts by seeing if I can make...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    $82k a year is considerably more than a large majority of Americans make at their full time jobs, not sure if I'd poo-poo it. Especially when it's from playing a game that they'd be playing anyway. He said he got $7k on his best month and that a typical month was lower than that, so it wouldn't...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    What's that for? I'm gonna listen to "Walking On The Sun" by Smash Mouth and watch American Pie and Wrestlemania 15 before I take a bus to the nearest college and back while studying the guide (like I used to study the EQ guide on bus rides to school), then play Baldur's Gate. Gonna be awesome.

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    Since women never get so much as a bruise or a bloody nose in Marvel movies (aside from Black Widow, which was self-inflicted), it's mystifying why the good guys don't just form a squad of female Avengers and let them handle Thanos and other major threats. Since they no-sell everything they'd be...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    When I took over management of a Gamestop, I was asst-manager at one store and manager at another store. They had removed all of the strategy guides from their shelves not long before that, and priced them all to one cent so they could be trashed. Both stores had massive piles of guides in the...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    If anything it would deflate it due to excess kronos flooding in, forcing people to undercut to move them. I thought I was one for a while because I make around 20-30 krono a pop on TLP launches, but I hadn't seen nothin' yet.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Depends on what game you're talking about. Souls 2 has Attunement and Adaptability which both add to the non-levelable Agility stat, which determines your iFrames. Your roll starts out significantly worse than Souls 1's roll, then as Agility levels up, it evens out, and eventually I think it's...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I didn't need a guide for Haligtree either. Got lost a couple times in terms of hitting a dead end and having to look around for another route, but it's basically just "head downward" for the whole thing. I think "Keep going down, stupid" is what my first girlfriend used to tell me when she was...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I ended up at level 265 when I was done with the game and that was on like NG+++...so 230 is super high for a first run. Most people probably beat the game at 160, give or take 20. At 265 I had every stat I wanted, as high as I wanted em. Could have maybe gone up to 300 just to fully max those...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    The white-out zone doesn't go on for long at least. The worst place in the whole game is the little town right before you ascend from the snow field to the Haligtree. Invisible assassin enemies, archers that can snipe you from across the town with pinpoint accuracy when you try to go across the...

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

    Sekiro is totally different from the other From games and probably my least favorite as well, which is like being the least attractive body part on 2012 Scarlett Johansson. From what I've heard, once you get good at it, it becomes maybe the most fun of the lot. However I've never been any good...

    Peter Pan & Wendy (2023)

    Thanks to Blackrock and ESG investing, you can love woke bullshit AND love money without them being necessarily at odds. Long as the underwriting is covering all the losses. As for this movie, all I have to say about it is... a large disinterested wanking motion in the air

    Smile (2022)

    Basically a lesser version of It Follows. Great movie if you want to see a bunch of graphic suicides. Watched this with my mom a couple weeks after my friend offed herself (who my mom was also close with) and holy fuck the movie was unpleasant. We watched the whole thing and didn't really talk...

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    Maybe I was seeing something that wasn't there. You'll forgive me for expecting Wasp to make Ant-Man look like a chump at every turn when the same thing happened in Thor 4 and Strange 2 (Female Captain America and Scarlet Witch were vastly more effective than any of the men, who were mostly...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I never sold any armor/weapons, they tend to not sell for much and if you keep them then eventually you'll have a huge collection. As time went on I kept finding out about interesting weapons and good-looking armor, then checking my inventory and finding that I had 'em already, which was great...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Question, does this NWN guide apply to the enhanced edition version of NWN? I assume that's the case about all of these guides that I've gotten. Figured I'd get one more for the last retro game in the group (there's also Planescape, but guides for that run a pretty large amount now so I'll just...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Oh yeah, Harad is basically Africa. Which means Rhun is...Russia? Or Eastasia, depends on whether Mordor is Germany or Russia in this equation. I think they should bump the cap to 150 and end the game's progression / main campaign where it started, in this next Angmar update. Easy for me to say...
