There's no sight of a drunken dwarf on the front page, they've abandoned their branding!

Heroic 25 would suck. We had a hard enough time finding 5 people with basic mechanical competency, much less 13!

EQ2 actually punished you for button spamming in the base game, as a melee, since auto-attack timers that occurred while you were channeling a skill (and every skill was channeled, even if only .5seconds, pretty much) delayed your auto-attacks. It was really hard to find a competent Monk DPS in...

Being a Rogue in EQ, anyone who could solo something that gave EXP looked pretty godlike to me.

But Smed feeds on despair, Dumar. That's why he gives all that money to charity. People can't suffer if they're dead.

Erudin with people in it would indeed be bizarro-world.

My jimmies are still rustled at WoW devs taking away Warlock Tanking after it cropped up in Mists beta.

GenCon is awesome. I miss back when it actually had a heavy MMO presence in the dealer room. Definitely not worth the travel money if you're not engaged in any of the large events that go on there, though. If you're knocking out 30 hours of RPG mods you can't find people to run in locally, or...

Me and my friend laughed so hard we about died during The Ring. Specifically when the horse jumps off the boat and flails against the side of the boat like a coked-out dolphin before rolling under the boat. Just as we were catching our breaths, the dumbasses run to the back of the boat, I...

Nah, the cops would have been "fired" for 6 months, then re-hired with backpay and no one would care at that point.

It's not really a game when anyone with half a brain knows EQN will be cash-shop out the ass. Smed humps that shit like dachsund on pixie sticks.

Grand Prix Kansas City this weekend. Resisting the urge to put Wildfire Emissary in my deck.

First character I made in EQ was a human SK in Qeynos. "Gamma level" was something rather foreign to me at the time. I very quickly rerolled a race with nightvision. Bad "Game" Mechanic; Hilarious, Memorable Experience.

Was completely expecting Amy to get vaporized by Striker when she was derping along near the fight. Would have been bloody hilarious. Good ending to the series, something short anime rarely succeed at doing due to blatant second-season whoring.

I crossed that river plenty of times between EverQuest, Anarchy Online, WoW and Dark Age of Camelot. Each of them held subs from me for years and provided me a lot of entertainment. I don't think newer MMOs suck because I've already "played my first MMO." I think they suck because they suck...

The "strategy" articles/youtube videos that get linked on the main cryptozoic forums are so hilariously bad, and yet they get 5-12 pages of "omg u so smrt evbody follow dis." A) Evaluating cards with half the set available B) Doing it poorly even within the context of what IS available Is...

I dunno, there would be something sublime in that contrast.

Sony tried it. That people have no idea they did, tells you how that panned out.

Because I shoot lightning out of my hands in video games. And enjoy jaunty caps.

My question is why would you care to do procedurally-generated story content? That kind of undermines the entire basis of what a story... is. It's honestly why I hate quest-hub leveling in modern MMOs. Each zone has maybe one or two good *stories*, that are perfectly acceptable as...

Friends don't let friends play Alliance.

I like the Monk Windwalker Tier being EVEN MORE FREE RESOURCES for the class/spec that's been GCD capped since it equipped its first purple. Just move Rune of Re-Origination's effect to next tier's 4-piece bonus and suddenly there'll be 5 more pieces of gear people actually want to equip (I...

How am I supposed to pretend to be a female wood elf if you can hear my voice! I'll never get any loots!

All I know is, thank god he shaved and put on a shirt, else I was about to start questioning my sexuality.

To this day I can't play EQ in 3rd Person. Feels too disconnected. Scroll camera in and out quickly to check for enemies/area effects, but other than that stuck in first person.

Doesn't it end in like an hour? Got some time to play today, leveled up a lancer. Some of the quests are pretty fun, but sometimes you just get caught in back-to-back quest cut-scenes/dialogues that drag out attempts to log off "after this quest." Also, enjoyed the ability to actually...

Physical stores will offer you *maybe* 50% of the card's value in Store Credit, or 20-30% in actual cash.

Little 3-foot tall wench in the desert city in charge of the adventurer's guild wants to discuss manhoods with you. It's mildly creepy coming from what looks like a child.

My god, I can actually play the game in my full monitor resolution without a black screen now. Way better than last beta phase.

How can it not be fun? They said fun like a million times!

This is why I send all my texts via carrier pigeon.

Except that's every other CCG on the market already. Tap, Rotate, Exhaust, Bow, Spend, Stun, Kneel, Use, etc. All Wizards has the rights to is the naming, essentially. As long as you find some other magical make-em-up name for the same mechanic, it goes unchallenged, as it has for the...

I just wish there was an item build that allowed perma-Call of the Ancients. So that I could be way gimpier than any other barbarian build, but have amusing pets.

The Tutors from Mirage can also be sold fairly quickly at local shops, since the EDH crowd gobbles them up.

I'm going to need some hyphens in there, Agraza. I can't tell whether you are a hobo that rapes corpses, or a rapist with a preference for hobo corpses. I guess I could use context clues, but I JUST CAN'T RISK IT.

Perhaps equip the cliff-face with a set of trampolines to aid hoppability?

It is mildly impressive how bad these guys are at the game they created.

When Magic first came out in the mid-90s, there was a LOT of overlap between the D&D and Magic Crowds. It's rather dropped-off now. Amusingly, MMORPGs had the same kind of cohort shifts.

The Healing Begins

Grand Island is also the "Round up all them thar DREAMERS and cart em to INS" city-ordinance passers a few years ago, so I'm pretty sure any political-correctness pussification occurring in town is counteracted by red-blooded (and necked) Real American virtues. I live in Nebraska; have my entire...
