    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    WoW story trailers always look great. Their cinematics and art department in general is top notch. The actual story is trash compared to XIV, though. Too many half finished, undeveloped shit that they kind of throw in all the time, characters that appear and disappear with their importance...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Makes sense, I didn't play during 1.0. The whole mystique of the MSQ for me, though, was always going to be the endgame with the Ascians. Curious how ShB wraps up because we definitely deep dived into a lot of their story. Wonder how many more expansions Yoshi and company have planned at this...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    it's interesting the distinction you make with the "yo we the empire we going to invade you" and the ascians "we wear black and we're mysterious". I consider the Ascian stuff (and to a lesser degree the Empire stuff because of how the Ascians have been driving/influencing them plus more reveals...

    I can get this, although I liked how Stormblood focused a little more on the "core story" a little more versus the Garleans, etc. Not that Dragonsong War wasn't cool on its own, but end of ARR MSQ set you up to have to go through some epic stuff to find your companions again, and aside from a...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019

    Every game is different. Definitely have some crazy games where it's just battle after battle in one area that is fun as hell. Contracts and money system adds some layers to how you want to play it, from where you land to how you go through mid game, too.

    2019-2020 NHL Season Thread: Uber Missed the Blues Victory Parade Edition

    yeah I'm sure a lot of guys do talk that way. I haven't looked at any specific comments to see how bad they were. It's mildly amusing to me cause Leipsic was the odd man out after the Kovy trade and was getting scratched on a nightly basis. The Wilson hate is still funny, too. Guy has...

    I guess with flying and just the overall HW story from 3.0 through 3.3 was considered just a step above. Obviously the very end of ARR was some good stuff maybe on par, but most liked HW more than Stormblood.

    Interesting that HW is having you feel this way, most people loved it and considered it the best "expansion" between ARR/HW/SB until this current ShB one.

    Ah yeah for GW might be tough. Agree big time with Xevy, Shipment 24/7 shines a lot more.

    MK2? Felt like one of the easier ones to use. What maps were you trying to use it on to get gold?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Torts always lagged behind, yeah. Sometimes you get cooking WQ's in addition to their X amount per day which you can do for a little extra rep, but it isn't much. Aside from their main quest area for Horde/Alliance, there's a few scattered NPC quest chains that give some rep for them off the...

    I mean, if you're escaping through the cutscenes, you're really missing a lot of MSQ and can't comment on it. Although if I was going to pick times to do it, would be ARR stuff between like 2.1 and 2.4 (give or take, it's been awhile).

    Reno isn't the fight I'd be thinking of as far as difficulty picking up goes. I'm not sure which parts you disabled on the Buster Ut, but if it has more of its' cores, paralyzing lasers happening more often can in theory be a pain. Wouldn't know since I got rid of those.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019

    Yeah SKS is a lot of fun in MP. Haven't tried in WZ yet. I like the AX-50 as much as HDR/K98. I go back and forth between HDR and AX-50. Kitted right, bullet drop for most shots with the AX you won't even notice it at all.

    VLK maybe? The one with the red dot default. Still my favorite non sniper scope in the game.

    Come on Gavin, there might be no point to keep saying it, but we love doing it. Look at some of the old threads that still get bumped repeatedly, Star Wars stuff is a good example.

    I think they did a good job with Cloud from where he starts to where he ends. There's an actual logical progression there. Even I have to admit in the OG he goes from emo kid to typical lets save the world hero pretty quick...although obviously there's the whole clusterfuck in his head they...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I guess? Characters feel good, voice acting helps a lot, I think they did a pretty good job with that. I know you focus in on random textures here or there but the majority of the game looks gorgeous. Combat is a little basic that early on, in fact honestly watching some of these videos...

    They're pretty damn sexy. Obviously at range you aren't hitting for shit, but swapping to it for up close it's a lot of fun. Also feels like they fixed matchmaking issues, at least for shoot the ship.

    2nd reactor mission it kind of starts to pick up steam, at least a little less of the story interludes. But in your case, I doubt you will like it no matter what

    Kinda sad the part of this game you pay for (Multiplayer) still having issue with matchmaking doing on 3 or 4 days now.

    The fact that the Finger Poke of Doom can be used as a response all on its own 20+ years later is tremendous.

    Seems a little weirder to be trying to block them from getting their own Taysom Hill...by drafting him, when you already have Taysom Hill.

    Payton revels in Saints' QB swipe from Panthers Seems kinda crazy to get in a bidding war over an undrafted guy where you give up a 6th next year to get a 7th this year so you can draft him.

    Did they break matchmaking in Multiplayer for the PC with this update? Can't find lobbies to save my life.

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    It was the play right before his 2nd TD pass, where you could see visibly he tweaked it. Was able to make the short throw on the next play, but it was clear his mobility was severed hampered (and he was probably only like 80% at best coming into the game).

    Kind of ironic since he was reported to have maybe one of the stronger throwing arms ever. Think Elway basically said Cutler was comparable to him.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    It's funny to read theories about people freaking out over everything changing going forward. Max's discussion with the Easy Allies guys seems closer to what I'd expect, that basically all the same major beats/places from the original happen more or less as they did in the original.

    I'm sure there are some in this category. A decent %. Of course that depends what kind of raid team you had in vanilla, just as it does the group you run M+ with now. Personally I barely keep in touch with more than 5-10 people I've played retail with in Legion or BFA, but still talk to two...

    I think it kind of sucks mainly just because it wasn't like teams had a warning that the season might end in ~5 games. It was basically we're playing today and it was all shutdown shortly after. Even the past few years, hell every year this format has been in existence, there's never been a...

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    Still pisses me off to no end they didn't remove him from that game after his 2nd TD pass to put us up 14-0 in the 1st. Could have rode Cousins (even super Int prone Cousins back then) to a win, and maybe RG3 doesn't completely fuck up the knee where he never comes back. Granted, he may never...
