    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    I don't know if my viewpoint on this is a common one, but I like the injections of real world into FF games. Not like, the cell phones and cars from the last couple games, that's ass I mean like, the injections of "higher technology used to exist in the world before the last collapse" because...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    For me, I'm gonna guess that I had the most deaths on Starscourge Radahn. Fire Giant is probably 2nd place. The Fallingstar Beast in the mines, Godrick in Stormveil, Draconic Tree Sentinel, Margit, and Malenia also all have a bunch of deaths. I one or two shotted most of the other fights in the...

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

    Getting this some time this afternoon and probably gonna be home playing it by 4 PM or so. Who else is rolling with this game?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Seriously though I do feel your pain. I've told the story a few times on here of how I nearly gave up on Bloodborne on day one, then it became my game of the decade a week later. I've watched a lot of people tap out on Fromsoft games and I know a lot of them will be super-into these games if...

    Justice League (2017)

    Finally got around to watching Snyder version. I'm halfway through (watching the blu-ray) and I really like it. Feels like the "lesser" characters got way more development than before. I don't remember Whedon JL well enough to compare, but from what little I do remember, this feels like a...

    Returnal (PS5) (April 30th)

    Couple things: My main issue with this is running out of health. Is there a reliable way to stay healed rather than slowly being whittled down? Is the only alternative just "don't get hit"? I think you can sleep in the ship to heal, but you can only do that once per cycle IIRC so that doesn't...

    The Color Out of Space (2019)

    Just watched this. I've never had a problem with The Thing and the completely grotesque shit that happens in that movie, but some of the stuff later on in this one made me want to just get to the end because it got depressing. It was a pretty good movie though. Reminded me a LOT of...

    Salt and Sanctuary (2d Dark Soulsesque) - PS4/Vita/PC

    The first S&S was insanely good, actually went all the way through it and platinumed it. The black triangular two-handed sword (can't remember what it was called) really carries you once you get it. Only thing I didn't like was that I missed one thing for the platinum and it happened to be...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Found the image I planted in the first room that has gotten me numerous heals. I expected it to have a lot more than 176 likes given how many heals I seemed to get (one boss fight had 3 appraisals in it IIRC). And 19 dislikes, in a game brimming with troll messages? Hell I've seen fake "hidden...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Let's see Classic/Kunark together - Very good Velious/Luclin together - Very good, can go right into AAs and Velious will still get some use, just not nearly as much, and mainly by B-tier raiders. PoP/LoY/LDoN together - Good, if only because it'll save some time. I assume LoY would buck the...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Generally good changes, not too thrilled about mimic nerf though. Used mimic in one fight post patch (Commander Niall) and she basically stood around in the middle of the field confusedly for the whole fight. Might be because there were adds around the perimeter. Weird that Tiche didn't get...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Update, I was farming some exp and waiting to get summoned to help people with endgame bosses (unfortunately, every time I got summoned, the host would die to something stupid on the way to the bosses...every goddamn time). Also had the blue ring activated to get summoned to help people with...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    What's the difference between Tarnished's Furled Finger, Duelist's Furled Finger, and Small Golden Effigy? I've been using the SGE for the entire game to get summoned and help people out, just now looking at the other two and they all have similar descriptions. Same with Recusant Finger and...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Found something fun. Go west of the Sellia Hideaway cave and use that horse mega-jump whirlwind to land on top of the giant skull, there is a bunch of loot up there.

    EQ2 TLE - Varsoon server

    Wait, is Kerafyrm in this? I was looking through the expansions and it looks like Kerafyrm is the bad guy of the Tears of Veeshan expansion? I didn't know he ever did anything outside of EQ1, specifically Velious and SOF. Found this screenshot. If that's him, he looks like a regular dragon...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Anyone know what these two islands are? Both appear to have locations on them. I'm guessing one of them is the intro level that you can warp back to. Wondering if the other is something I missed.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I'm half awake right now so this may be a dumb question, ashes are the L2 abilities right? Best one I found for a mimic to use is the Rivers of Blood weapon. Spam the L2 and the mimic also spams the L2, which results in a bunch of bleed procs until you run out of FP.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, I think I said "TSS server with FV rules" earlier. Could even go beyond that, like all items usable at level 1, to give it more of a Mischief-like hook.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Reusing art assets has certainly kept EQ going. Most new expansions only have, what, 3 or 4 new models? They've gotten a ton of mileage out of Planes of Power and reusing those zones/mobs, to say the least. WoW being around for four more expansions (or 10-ish years) is well within the realm of...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I disagree, but you're probably right. And that's depressing, because they don't know what they're missing out on. TSS has a few things in common with Kunark and Velious in terms of design elements (Ashengate is basically a new Temple of Veeshan, for example). It's kinda too bad it isn't the...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    51. However, all the good AAs are at 55 or 59. A level 51 with maxed-out AAs would have like, 10 more resists and Run 3.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    That's pretty funny, but I like the idea of challenges like this. A server where no mobs over level 30 spawn until Nagafen and Vox are defeated, challenging players to do it at like level 35. Or a Kunark server where nothing spawns until Trakanon is defeated, forcing everyone to do that at level...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    If they want to increase the amount of players who stick around, a TSS start is the way to go. The population has several major die-off points and the biggest is the level 70 era. GoD is another one, but a lot of that is having LDoN as a lead-in, and GoD->OoW itself is a decent era. However...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Torrent dissipates if you press L3 down, which is very easy to do. Before I realized this, he would often poof at really inopportune moments and I didn't know what was going on. As for the ferryman boss, just play aggressively and stay close to him, wait for his big slam attack and dodge around...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I never had much trouble with Kalameet considering how often I see him mentioned like this. His breath attacks in particular leave him wide open for melee damage. Malenia is definitely the fight I had the most trouble with in ER, followed by Radahn. I'd put it up there with Orphan for sure...

    Ms. Marvel

    I know Kamala Khan pre-dates anybody knowing who Kamala Harris is, but I expect a lot of people will think Marvel named her after Harris. Hell I bet a lot of people think Harris is a Muslim. Nobody even seems to know she's half Indian. Maybe this'll help prop her up over that big goal of...

    EQ2 TLE - Varsoon server

    Oh, I think Kingdom of Sky was what I saw, not Desert of Flames. Or maybe it was both. I think Kunark was also out cause I was an iksar. I think Echoes of Faydwer had either just come out or was about to.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Is this game ever gonna get a TLP? Does it even need a TLP? Seems like it has a ton of players, and you only really need a TLP once population dwindles to the point that people aren't doing mid-game content.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I need to revise my Kerafyrm event server idea a bit. Would the Sleeper even be killable in Velious-era? Probably if you threw 600 bodies at it and chain rezzed but that'd be kinda dumb. I guess make the Kerafyrm server lock at Luclin or PoP? Only major thing about this server is that the...

    Utnayan Backlog Challenge: Part 4 ends March 31

    Hmm, maybe I should finally go back and finish Nuka-World in Fallout 4 and get my damn 100%. I've got one of those awkward "platinum with 91%" situations going on. Same thing happened with Uncharted 2 on PS4, it's a plat with like 88% or something because they added a set of extra side-trophies...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Just occurred to me. With the new level squish, 60 is the max level as of Shadowlands. If it continues going up by ten levels per expansion, then four more expansions (what that guy predicted) will put the level cap at exactly 100 for the final expansion. I feel like this is too perfect to be a...

    EQ2 TLE - Varsoon server

    TBH I'm sort of tempted to do this instead of the EQ1 TLP this year, unless the EQ1 TLP has an amazing ruleset. Time is my worst enemy, like I can do a launch but I usually fall off after a couple weeks because I barely have time to play my 1P games at the rate I want to IRL. So I don't know...

    Sports Entertainment

    Oh, they showed a RIP picture? I started streaming it right at the start of the signature (Then/Now/Forever montage) so that explains why I didn't see anything. Then to have the announcers not mention it either made things pretty weird. I remember this pretty vividly, as I was mid-puberty at...

    Sports Card Collecting.

    Just want to mention that I had a huge basketball card collection as a kid (from the 1990-1994 span of time specifically). I mean flawless mint-condition cards for all kinds of guys, tons of cards for the Dream Team members specifically, etc. ...and I haven't been able to find it for the last...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Just knocked off the Gelmir Hero's Tomb. Was easier than I thought, just go in the lava to the end and the boss door is shortly after the drop-down. Level 217 here, climbing towards my 255 goal while I look for whatever scraps are left in NG that I missed. I should probably just start NG+ already...

    Utnayan Backlog Challenge: Part 4 ends March 31

    22.5 points. CHEATER! I'm actually okay with rounding up, whenever I do one of these and set the rules. Yeah, there's a friend of mine who could be demolishing all of us in this challenge because he has this epidemic of getting to the final boss, or final stage, of games and just giving up...
