If you bought this shit, got dumpstered by a whale and cried about it, you're as big of a problem as the whale. You're just a cuck instead of a bull.

This is a funny paradigm on live servers. Many of the best and most dedicated raiders in top-tier guilds either play EQ as a side-hobby or spend more time raiding in some mid-tier guild. There's just not much to do for them between raid unlocks/expansion releases.

I don't disagree with this sentiment but is there anyone in that crew that you really wish had more screentime? I don't have a problem with any of the cast but their characters were either generally unlikable or generic. There'd be more room for them without Maverick sucking up all the air but...

Post-raid drama on forums is cold-water on my goal of getting back into the scene when my kids are older.

This sounds fun. I'd be curious to hear how it goes with your trio. With how powerful charm is, are there are lot of competitive gearing opportunities without it? Like is a full group with an OK-geared plate tank and healer basically getting scraps compared to a group with a good enchanter?

I think he didn't see it was bloody until he started drinking it, which is dumb AF. He got his hearing back because magic. The blood in the river part is kind of cool if only because there are thousands of preserved-looking corpses in the water, probably many from natives in the area so she...

LDON is distilled

Other than farming LDON and the quests/farms you mentioned, what are most organized folks doing at level 40 to get gear in groups?

Jibaro: As an entry in an "experimental animation" show this is my favorite. I actually did some reading on this and the background to the dancers was interesting. As an enjoyable show this was painful to watch. I wish they embraced the deafness of the Conquistador more a toned down some of the...

Amber Heard is the most interesting part of an Aquaman 2 movie. Getting rid of her is foolish. They should just recast Grant Gustin as the Flash. Should've been him to start with instead of budget Jimmy Fallon.

Just unlocked purples. I have a healthy external source of iron, oil and uranium. Feeling pretty good about my base but I need to scale up production and am not sure how I want to do it. Will probably start messing around with blueprints once I get another source of coal and copper. I don't know...

The Spiderman series of games are one of the few lines that make me feel like a PC peasant instead of a PC master race. If the port/remaster is clean on release it'll be a day1 buy.

Just preordered the astartes tier that comes with a life size power armour and a herald of slannesh themed fleshlight. https://roguetrader.owlcat.games/

Bioware needs to subvert expectations and make shitlord a playable and viable religion.

I skipped the 2k and 3k series, but I'm going to need to upgrade from the 1080ti i got used soon so i can play EverQuest and factorio.

Let me make a bold prediction: The release of the next generation of GPUs will kickstart the GPU scalping economy all over again. Unless NVIDIA/AMD and all their suppliers are dramatically scaling up production it's going to be a cyclical thing. They are scaling up, of course, but at some level...

Getting into this after going hard on Dyson Sphere Program and exploring the tech tree in Satisfactory. Just started building a railway to a nearby oil field in my save: https://factoriobox.1au.us/map/view/311f949197a2fe87147bf1f2f4a75c6269a3eeeba99f90fc902669ea69fe2e16/#1/nauvis/19/-31/84/0/8...

Glad to see the WH40k getting an RPG. It's one of the most untapped universes and so much media that comes from it is subpar. The premise of being a secret agent of the emperor on exploration missions is perfect. CRPG is kind of a poor differentiator from RPGs when so many classic CRPGs are...

Would have to be a substantial reward for poopsocking on that server to attract people to do it. Like you said it'd start feel like a live server pretty quickly. Adding challenge rewards would be hard because if you're not in the crew unlocking the expansions you can easily outlevel everything.

If you made leveling really slow (even like, 10x slower), a motivated playerbase playing optimally would still spend nearly all their time doing easy content. There'd be raids at every level increase + content release that would have sub-max levels, but those would be exceptions and still...

Not sure how, since the optimal gameplay loop would be to curbstomp mobs that are relatively easy. It'd just take longer. A successful level-locked server would have the hardcores progressing through increasingly difficult content as they gear up and get new levels at regular intervals. 1 per...

I don't understand what solution you're proposing and I think you still don't understand the issue I'm conveying.

I don't know what you think the "issue" is, but the issue from my perspective is that early expansions are trivial. You can get a few people with a pulse together and can curb-stomp everything. The attraction of level-locking is to create a game where players are motivated to go after the...

Would love to see a crime thriller where Wonka starts a drug empire with a chocolate factory as a front that ends in him going fully legitimate. Breaking Good: A Wonka Story

A version of vaniki where the level cap starts at one and increases five levels a week until level 45, doesn't have ldon or other ez mode paths to gear and doesn't have special rules to make cc / charm on reds easy or so would be more interesting to me. Not sure how it'd play out and it'd...

Thanks. Would love to see some of the unedited footage or making of for this movie. That vid reminds of how i kind of missed long shots with a wide angle that would be possible to take without heavy cgi. Fury road has a lot of that and there's just something real about.. real.

LDON seems like the antithesis of Vaniki. I envisioned Vaniki as being a server for the tryhards to exploit-kill the baddest mobs they could to get loot way beyond what they should have. Unless I'm mistaken LDON is just farming boring and relatively trivial content over and over to slowly accrue...

Farming LDON sounds like the worst TLP experience. What does farming Natimbi at level 40 look like? Is it charm killing named mobs?

Enjoyed this movie, no real complaints.

I feel like a lot of us old fucks, including me, have miserly game purchasing habits built from a childhood of having to hustle our nickels together for weeks to get the latest NES, atari, computer game from Egghead, whatever. Now some of us making six figures, have a big ass mortgage for a...

Not sure if you've played it but GW2 is a great casual MMO game. What target are you guys going after next? What group gear are you guys farming?

So do you expect at level 55 there won't be other raid / group encounters with Kael-level gear that can be fought with charm?

Interesting that charm is breaking more on blue mobs than it is normally. I'm actually surprised they increased the level cap of CC spells, especially charm. Kael fights notoriously facilitated charming. I'm guessing <Bind Rush> is literally going to be perfecting bind rushing and farming...

Lol i thought when my kids were 3 and 7 they'd start to get increasingly independent. Nope. Only way I can play more than a few hours a week is it i just let them watch tv all day which turns them into brainless monsters. As soon as i get home from work and all weekend it's superdad until they...

Gotta imagine that the release of expansions that are 10 levels higher than normal and the new spell rules making it feasible to farm that gear or gear near it the leveling process for active players will be a speedbump on the way to killing targets with underleveled. Ex: when the cap is moved...

Phone games are weird to me. I kind of want a phone game to play when I'm not able to play a "real" game, but then I feel like if I get into it I'll do what I did with Fallout: Shelter, play the game on Bluestacks (or just natively on Windows in this case) and be unable to play it on my mobile...

Out of any of those the only stream I'd consider watching is a Vaniki one where players are farming gear (solo, group, or raid) waaay above their level. Is there a raiding guild forming that will stream their kills? I want to see what a raid of level 40s can do.
