    The Last of Us

    I'll keep an eye out for the bow then lol. Man why am I so terrible at stealth games. I'm coordinated enough for FPSs and decent MMO pvp but it must be my lack of patience killing the stealth game

    The Last of Us

    I just started, and just now facing 3-5 zombie thingies at once. I am god awful at stealth games, and completely lack the patience for it as well; this game seems to demand it. Is the whole game going to be like this? Don't get me wrong, the locals are gorgeous, I just hate the gameplay so far.

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I don't know, I wasn't remotely interested in anything GW2 offered in the cash shop. The only F2P game I've put money in is PS2. Only like 30$ though, but it's bought me months of entertainment.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Are... are those people standing in line for a story quest? I mean I felt like a bit of a schmuck a few weeks ago standing in line at Disneyland as some fatass on a scooter used the 'disability' line to skip the line every ride, but not in a game. Unless that's part of the design: theme parks...

    I actually have fun with random zerg guilds, TR side on Watterson/Jaeger. I'm on as Trebb. But as soon as I can, I'm transferring my ass to a west coast server. Check out the ping difference just now :*(

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    There were some sweet locales in that. Impressive. I've not touched this game the first go around (or this beta). But getting somewhat interested despite mmo burnout Apologies if it was answered earlier, but will PS3 people be playing with the PC Master Race?

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    Holy hell I forgot about this. Was anyone here in the FOH guild after the expansion hit? I remember fighting twin giants for like 20 minutes, then right after they're at 5% there was some shitty mechanic that didn't always work, and would wipe us. 10,20 times a night. Blargh. Yea they could...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    Yeah they definitely upped the grindage by about 9000%. In retrospect I feel stupid for paying a monthly fee to do daily 'work' (aka daily quests) just for a +5 to this stat enchant or whatever. Some things I did have fun with right after the expansion was released: * Making money...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    Less investment in the characters, community, and on top of that we're all getting older and in turn too old to be AE CC'd for 1 minute 17 seconds from an instant AE ability(or whatever it was at DAOC launch). I'm all about options for group vs zerg tactics, but not at the expense of losing...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    AHA got one! Here he is ladies and gentlemen. The typical stealther. He demands that it be rock paper scissors and admits as such. He wants that 100% chance to win, fuck a fair fight. My memory's a little hazy on DAOC, didn't they also get a 'get out of jail ability'? I know WoW/WAR...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    Ahh DAOC stealthers. The early days of invisible archers one shotting cloth casters. Totally balanced. When I was bored I would run around Midgard solo as a 50 cab shortly after release (yea yea, I know lol). ZIK---> dead. Not to mention if the first one didnt get you, your little caster...

    I admit I only briefly touched the raiding game, but I started a mage specifically for it and hit 50 just in time for the expansion. Just for those curious on how ridiculous the whack-a-mole dps rotation was, read and weep :P http://exploitguild.net/pages.php?s=&page=Defilemancer As a...

    After also predicting everything in the first episode, I mocked my wife for continuing to record this on the DVR. Purely for my entertainment, how did they end the season? Feel free to /spoiler it

    Guild Wars 2

    Yea, I always hated the nerf to fun items with no real gain aside from cosmetic. Like the EQ Dark Elf mask, or a WoW item that turned you into a random race.

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    As someone who hit the expansion long and hard, I agree with the above posts. It was a bit neat at first, but I just couldn't believe how *grindy* they made it. Just a few case in points: They took faction grinds to a new level. Daily quests would normally give say 250 or 500 a turn in...

    Planetside 2

    Are you talking about today's mini patch? I agree, abandoned bases should be taken over faster if no combat is detected for x number of time. : All servers will come down at 6:00 AM PT (3:00 PM CEST) for a brief update to address a few outstanding issues. Downtime is anticipated to be...

    Guild Wars 2

    Same here. I realized pretty much anything was a better use of time than WvWvW. Plus people will always be cheesy in PvP so you started seeing more thieves abuse culling, pretty much being invisible and untargettable 95% of the time thanks to shitty culling. Then in zergs more and more...

    Guild Wars 2

    Did they still not fix it? I played for about 15 minutes earlier this week and thought I saw a ton more of the zerg than normal. The new options menu seems to imply they leave nothing out. I'm probably wrong though :P Planetside 2 can be fun, but you have to find those just right battles...

    Guild Wars 2

    So they finally fix culling, and add a wvwvw exp bar for us OCD people insisting on character advancement, and looks like PRX is not officially in GW2 anymore, what's the inside scoop with that Tuco?

    Defiance

    Same for the TVTorrents rip, someone tried to create a 720x404 mp4 from a 624x352 avi and actually expect it to look like the higher resolution. I think a better version will be out tomorrow if you can wait.

    Do You Cheat in Video Games?

    I rarely cheat in single player games, whats the point? Recent exceptions: TES I hacked the shit out of my maximum carry weight, not a fan of time sinks in single player games. I also spawned a quest item when one of many quests bugged out. Online games, except for ShowEQ back in the day...

    I don't even care about people getting free certs. Well marginally. I mean its the same as buying certs with SC I suppose. What made me quit today was them introducing even more shotguns. NOT the way I want this game to go, so I'm out. /why yes, my official last death is from a...

    Wow the BiowareBois are still saturating the forums? I see nothing in that thread except seething hatred for the level 55 'hackers'. HACKERS BAN THEM ALL! So besides this, how is the expansion? lol.

    Planetside 2

    The key to this game, is to just have fun and not worry about 'exp'. It's horrendously slow as a free player (0 bonuses except maybe population). It's gotten a bit easier to earn cert points with alerts and daily medals. But yea, as an engineer it's easy points dropping ammo, repairing...

    I played the hell out of Below the Root for the ol' Commodore 64. The attached image is way smaller than the one athttp://www.thegreatness.com/belowthe...lowtheroot.png. I could never beat it though, Disk 2 was corrupt. Ahh the days of floppy disk gaming.

    I'm an average player at best, but goddamn I love my engineer. I've gotten pretty obnoxious with the UB grenade launcher (latest patch fixed the main reload problem, rest is still buggy though). But the AV turret...That is just pure fun. In the perfect spot and ignored by all the aircraft...

    Planetside 2

    My god, the AV turret is a fountain of exp. Light and heavy tanks are now worth so much to kill. If I manage to sneak behind a light tank, one shot gets it on fire. You just have to find the sweet spot where vehicles still render but you dont for the snipers everywhere. Just messing...

    I wish we could go back to regular GM events, need to put the 'Role Play' back into MMORPG. Some of my funnest EQ memories (besides the long term friendships made) include stumbling on GM events. I was slumming it up with a friend in West Commonlands at then cap 50 to help them level, and a...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    When the expansion hit, I gave it an honest try. 2 characters to 60, eventually, thanks to bugged storyline quests halting progression slowing me down, and 2+ week GM wait times. I even did a few raids. I gave up on PvP though, there was literally nothing to gain from it, the stats on the...

    Planetside 2

    Agreed. This is also the first MMO(well sort of an MMO) in a while that I've looked forward to logging on, rather than 'sigh, time to do my dailies to keep up with raid requirements!'. They've also done a decent job at balancing, and not being too much Pay-2-Win. Though it is way easier to...

    I don't know, but sometimes I feel more OP as my engineer. I spent 7$ to unlock the engineer anti-vehicle turret. I love sneaking behind the enemy lines with it. That said, having NC as the only faction to get a camera-guided HA launcher can't possibly work out. Unless it's really really...
