    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It has occurred to me that Stonesword Key is one of the items you can choose at the beginning, which would let you open this fog gate in the intro dungeon. Any particular advantage to doing this at the beginning? Anyone remember what's in here?

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I imagine it'll be significantly fleshed-out. Kalm to Corel is about the same amount of hours/areas as Midgar in the original game. Nibelheim is what they should be aiming for to make the most impact from a storytelling perspective. Start with Kalm flashback about Nibel, end with actual Nibel.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Let's start placing bets on how much ground Remake Pt 2 will cover. 1. Kalm to Junon Boat/Costa Del Sol? 2. Kalm to the end of the Corel scenario? 3. Kalm to Nibelheim? 4. Kalm to Temple of the Ancients? 5. Kalm to Forgotten City and the big death? My bet is 2. That would be about as much...

    Make sure you get to the bottom of that sudden bill increase. I've had Comcast make that "mistake" with me once or twice. My mom was paying like $170 a month for "ultra fast" internet for years that was supposed to be 100 MB a second downloads. One day I came over and tried to download...

    TBH I don't like a lot of these choices either, some of my least favorite fights. Deathknell and Tantor, kill me. Still looking forward to big-dicking on other servers with my Trakaraptor illusion in a couple weeks.

    Jackass Forever (2022)

    After never watching any of these (probably thought I was above it) I saw the first Jackass about a week ago. It was so much fun that I watched the other 3 movies over the last few days. Haven't laughed like that in a long time. There's a certain joy and brotherhood to these movies that I don't...

    Been trying to get Verizon FIOS for ages. Always get a "not available in your area" message when I apply at a new place, even though all my places were in a major city until 2022. Tried RCN too, same shit, not available. Literally the only thing available is Comcast. How is that even legal...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Yeah, the 70 era is murder on TLPs. One of the good things about Vaniki is that it rolls the entire 70 era up into what is essentially a single expansion's timeframe. We'll see how that goes. There are 3 major points where the population of TLPs gets hammered: 1. LDON (Since they usually give...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    In NG+ I used Rivers on both of the final bosses and it worked out really well on damage output. Though Radagon took a bunch of tries. I switched to Malenia sword after a couple losses and found that its damage output wasn't as good as dual Rivers, so I switched back. It's worth noting, though...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Just to clarify, I meant the main story. The main story bosses don't get really strong until Fire Giant onwards (maybe Morgott, depending on build). This doesn't take into account all the non-mandatory bosses that are balls-to-the-wall: Valiant Gargoyles, Mogh x2, Malenia, Radahn, Commander...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It's weird, in my first run of the game I didn't have much trouble with the final boss. Hourah Loux was the big endgame problem for me. This time I beat HL in one shot, then totally struggled with the final boss. Most of my trouble was actually with Radagon, weirdly enough. Took me like 9 tries...

    Just realized something. The Larval Tear is a silver metal embryo, much like the Mimic Tear is a fully-grown silver liquid metal T-1000 thing. And you use the Larval Tear to respec. Maybe this was already obvious to other people, but... ...My God, when you respec, are you actually killing your...

    Any speculation on what effect this is going to have on the market itself? I'm leaning "none" because it seems more about incriminating individuals. However, there are rugpull schemes involved. If a popular crypto gets named as a rugpull setup, I do think it'll sustain a drop. Speaking of...

    Here's hoping next winter's "a few Luclin zones" expansion includes the Twilight Sea->Scarlet Desert->The Grey->Ssra Temple corridor. Which it should, since the first half already had VT in it, so Ssra makes sense for the next one. I'd also love to see Katta Castellum get reimagined. Six zones...

    I could probably tame this beast. But what is there to farm in Scarlet Desert? Once you get a shard (which doesn't take long) the zone doesn't have much of a use. It's unfortunate because it's a good-looking area.

    Sick today so it wasn't easy, especially the final boss. Got decked out in those new pants (too bad about all the scars) and finally knocked out the Frenzied Flame ending in NG+. That's it, the plat is finally done. 132 hours. Still best game of all time.

    I think that was RF/LJ era yeah. I missed that era entirely which is unfortunate because from what I've heard, the spice flowed. I'll never understand raid leaders that take a long time to set up / excessively go over strays. The best way to learn is by doing, and most people at least partially...

    Yeah, I think Bind Rush and Rusty Willsapper had a combined 120 or so people in Grieg's End for a few minutes during raid time, and most BR weren't there. PoK is jumping like a live server. If the pop is low, it's hard to tell. Yelinak isn't spicy drama, it's just full of really subpar and/or...

    In NG+ I completely gimpblitzed Godfrey the Golden. Summoned mimic tear and blasted him with spells and the fight was over in like 15 seconds with minimal effort. I felt pretty shitty afterwards, so I fought Morgott 1-on-1 with no spells. Got totally lost in Farum Azula and called it a day after...

    Not sure where else to post this, but it looks like Elder Scrolls 6 is taking place in Hammerfell. I figured it'd be Valenwood myself, but Hammerfell makes a lot more sense. Daggerfall took place predominantly in High Rock, and I think it had a little of the Hammerfell coast, but it wasn't a...

    I've been thinking about this a lot. 8k/240 is about as high as things can get before gains stop mattering for human vision. An argument could be made that 4k/120 is as high as things "need" to go. After that there's really nowhere left to go with the current TV gaming paradigm until new...

    Yeah Natimbi is fugly. Back when GoD first went live, that was also the only zone that most of the playerbase could actually fight in. Muramite procs would shred tanks in-era, so people would be forced to sit in Natimbi farming their AAs from non-proccing mobs. It's a shame because GoD has some...

    Banestrike is actually good in this era. I did the full Death Incarnate cheevo (or whatever it's called) on Phinny to get Banestrike down to its lowest possible cooldown time. However by then it's like 0.2% of your DPS. Or maybe 0.02%, can't remember. It's kinda funny that the cooldown-reduction...

    What's going on with those messages out in the middle of nowhere? How? Looks like a bunch of people tried jumping over there and failed, judging from all the Bloodstained. Anyone know what this outfit is? I think it's Malenia helm, no shirt, don't know the arms/pants though.

    Agreed. 'Nother question: On my dual-Uchi samurai run, if I add this: https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Ash+of+War:+Hoarfrost+Stomp to my offhand Uchi and then do powerstance attacks with both, will the L1 attack inflict both bleed and frost statuses at the same time?

    I was kidding about it being a personal attack. Though it did describe me to an extent. People who serial reroll and leave at the same time every server (PoP usually) annoy me too. All the best parts of the game are after that IMO, though I have a soft spot for classic/kunark too. Recruitment...

    Nope, they've continued to rule the roost right up to the present day.

OGC is also ahead of every other guild on the servers being merged, as far as I...
