    All righty then. Good to know. I will have to walk through them immediately then.

    Path of Exile

    I have to say, I would be a lot more interested in doing the regular league occurrences if they spawned at the end of the map instead of the start. I only get loot credit for the delerium mobs, right? So I would like to clear the map and THEN do the delerium portal, but I'll be fucked if, in...

    Okay so after a day or two of actual playing, I am finally getting into low maps. I am still struggling to grasp what is the whole point of this league. Is it the new clusters? Is that the meat of it? Because the "linear breach" mechanic is kinda shit. Is there something particular I should...

    This may not be the open arms, moist kiss on the cheek league you've been waiting for. It is, without hyperbole, the blandest since the first gen leagues like Ambush and Nemesis. Metamorph really held my interest, this one is the meh-est of the meh.

    In typical PoE fashion, from time immemorial, league mobs are overtuned in early game. It is nothing new. They are rippy as fuck though, I still do them occasionally while I am leveling but they are clearly designed from a geared up perspective (as always with leagues). Anyone have a line on...

    At my age, I can't tell how old a woman/girl is anymore. The one on the right looks drunk but that could just be timing on the pic. At any rate, as soon as I looked at this pic for longer than 3 seconds this alarm went off in my head:

    Well, boys, my body is ready. Currently active snowstorm for the next 24-48 hours, corona virus shutting my city down, and new PoE league. I will say that, for the first time ever, I think my initial PoE play session will be co-opted by another game. Borderlands 3 releases today on Steam and...

    Yeah even a slow guy like myself hits maps in 12-16 hours. New Season: Pick a meta build as a starter. Switch to your "desired build" once you establish a baseline income, gear and hideout. Don't explore all corners of the zones. Eventually you will learn the "ideal" or more efficient path...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Well I played a handful of hours over the weekend and here are my impressions: (1) The early levels are a fucking DRAG. They need to make this more exciting and faster. I did not actually enjoy the play until I was around level 15 and I equipped a unique dagger. (2) Some of the maps are too...

    The Animated GIF Thread

    Sorry to post text in the Gif thread but this was amazing. The best part was the uncontested layup in the other direction that got stuffed by the rim. That level of incompetence at the end of the previous struggle just made it all perfect.

    $126 seems pretty fucking low considering I have played thousands of hours over 7+ years and never seen a single one.

    Greyhound (2020)

    Oooooooooooh this actually looks good. I mean, I love Tom Hanks, but he is almost irrelevant to the destroyer escort/submarine warfare that we could see in this movie. This could be to ocean warfare what Fury was to tank warfare. That tank stuff was relatively brief in Fury (and the last...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    Witness. I am 50 and I hit close to two fitty last summer. I've lost 30 pounds since August just by eating more regularly through the day, vaguely limiting calories, and doing weights at home a couple times a week. And staying active with my kid. I think the hardest thing to do was BREAK the...

    Dune (2020)

    When he was being sworn in as king and was kneeling topless I thought he looked like a 12 year old kid - and that is why I am being critical. Because I was thinking about him in Dune as that scene was progressing. At any rate I really enjoyed his acting so I am seriously optimistic regardless.

    Dune (2020)

    I watched The King last night, the lead was pretty good. However, he seems too.............small/skinny/frail. The kid needs to bulk up a bit. Worked for a young king but I picture Paul being larger. I mean, I guess surviving in the desert with the Fremen would peel off all body fat so...

    I miss Whispering Ice. That was my first truly successful endgame build outside of totems in the way back machine. It got gutted during the first round of ES changes and I have not looked into it since.

    NECRO! Started playing this co-op this weekend. Started out pretty rough, me and my buddy are pretty shit at games in general lol. But after a poor showing the first night we clicked and are now most of the way through the second world. I am really enjoying it. I mean, I get tired of the...

    Butt Boy (2019)

    I...... Wait, what? Um......I......erm.........what? So, does a body disappear if he sticks, like, just a finger in his butt? Or........um........does it have to be more? This may be the oddest byline for a movie ever written, and the trailer does not clarify a fucking thing.

    This. I don't know why they haven't tried it. They gave us Harbinger and went WHOOPS, TOO MUCH PLAYER AGENCY! and off it went. I would be interested to see how a free for all AH would do in a league time frame. I think the answer to Why Haven't They Tried It? is: Because It's Never Going...

    In Inferno levels D3 it was far easier to buy your gear to advance because getting it yourself was incredibly challenging. D3 then went the extreme route with zero market and class apportionment SSF. Also adding real money to the market made it shady as fuck, and Blizzard raked in the cash...

    I may bring in an ARPG noobie for the next league. Should be interesting. I have never grouped in this game in the many years I have played. You ever have that friend that just won't stop tinkering with something - car, house modifications, whatever hobby - no matter how good it gets? That...

    THIS. PoE has basically become the All You Can Eat Buffet of ARPGs. You may be able to go in and eat one of everything but afterwards you will be uncomfortable. Also, you need to research what is on the menu before you go in - you may not like that All You Can Eat Sauerkraut and Sausage menu...

    Yeah, my latest review of lab and map sustain is: Lab is ridiculously easy and only a time sink to find all the trials. Power creep and absolutely no change to the lab fights means the gimpiest of gimp builds can do it. Also the red map sustain in the new Atlas is ridiculous. Not since...

    Welp - I guess I will do my usual and make a cyclone build to explore the new content. My desire to try new builds and effects has gone out the window, but I am still passingly interested in what GGG does with the game. This league I killed a single Awakened 8 Sirus but got sick of trying to...

    For the first time I've actually gotten into TW:1 over the last couple of weeks - after pre-purchasing lol. I started watching Legend of Total War streams and it made me want to play, and actually taught me a lot. Like Punko's post from February though, I play on normal and enjoy the game...

    Warhammer Online RIP

    I fucking loved this game when it came out, even with the massive imbalances between sides. And I say that from a guy who played a sorceress. And, yeah, the T1 battlegrounds were an absolute blast, then you got to the "boot into lava" maps and it all went to shit. I also enjoyed the Chosen -...

    Synthetik - Bullet Hell COOP

    I picked this up on Tuesday and co-op played with my buddy last night. It starts pretty slow - at the beginning we were dying on the second level, occasionally making it to the third. But by the end of the session we had cleared 4 bosses (20 levels) and died to a mass of elite enemies while...
