Initially the class system had lots of variety, but because PVP is a plague upon MMORPGs, it was wrecked about a month into release. Rift had the most diametrically opposed factions in history, with absolutely generic as shit high fantasy on one side vs. the most random collaboration of time...

Columnvs. Azeth - Sad times when the championship is played in round two, but Column is still the clear favorite over *. Tanoombavs. Hoss - As predicted, Hoss will not make it past a true powerhouse in the asshat category. =| Delicate Flowervs. I'm Rich Bitch - The politics thread will...

Columnvs Soygen - That's fair. Azethvs Royal - * vs. porn-wizard. Yeah, also fair. Tanoombavs lurkingdirk - Not even a real fight. Hossvs Tuco - Tocu hasn't done me wrong. Granted neither has Hoss, but Tocu and his nets have been pretty consistent. Not that it matters, since Hoss...

Being serious for a moment, I would definitely say that we could, as a group, come up with interesting and entertaining lore/background information, as well as cohesive epic questlines that fit into a given narrative. Simple experience with the genre and years of being exposed to it has...

Greatsword abilities are a bucket of rape. Especially when you get the passives that boost their damage.

The age of heroes has begun. After untold eons, the Gods have spent their remaining energy creating The Font: the only thing capable returning life to the champions of the world. With the Font's power, the races are set to rise up against their cruel oppressors. Elf and dwarf gather arms in...

There's a lot of factions among the armchair devs, and rarely do they cross boundaries. No conversation on MMOs would head towards something productive if everyone is given the same weight of opinion, because the EQ-nostalgia crew will want EQ: Reskinned and refuse to move on anything while...

Eh, general combat wasn't hard at all. It was actual bosses and dungeon trash that took awhile to kill, and a lot of it had to do with the fact that -many- players simply didn't optimize their builds for anything, and I would wager that some had points spent in borderline useless stuff. When I...

Final Fantasy 4 is considered one of the high water marks of the series. 6 would generally be considered another. After that you have a lot of debate about quality/story/etc. The one thing that basically everyone will agree on is that 8 was shitty, and people who like it should have their...

I would definitely be down to helping in that endeavor. The wiki pages are lolworthy at best, especially at the lack of depth they maintain. There is some serious shit happening with certain characters and the wiki pages sort of just go "and then Karsa killed an emperor. SCENE~!" and move on.

Yeah, the "new" actress after Gods of the Arena was terrible. Nowhere near as hot, and incredibly annoying. The newer Spartacus did fine, it was just a fresh wound when it happened to fans, really. Amazing series, and much like Breaking Bad it ended where it should have instead of being drug...

Book one is not indicative of the series as a whole. It's effectively a made for TV movie script that introduces a lot of characters and tries to flesh them out to some degree within a 2 hour movie (give or take) and then try to resolve the majority of the storylines in some fashion. Read it...

It has some balance issues with specific spells/abilities being incredibly overpowered, but otherwise it is a easily worth that and then some.

I know a lot of people are flip-adverse, but you can also get pretty decent grilled cheese by keeping it mobile and flipping often. This lowers the heat being applied overall, but it also evens out the distribution as you aren't browning one side and then the other and calling it good. This...

The DS/3DS have a lot of great RPGs on them, and I've been plowing through some old favorites again. The Etrian Odyssey series is spectacular in my opinion, especially with the 3DS "remakes" of the first two games that also contain a more story-centric mode. They are theoretically difficult...

Guy I was specifically talking to (sorry, didn't quote) said he has the knife skills of a "fucking newborn" and in my opinion lateral slices while dicing onions is not an amateur hour move. It's useful (damn near required for smaller dices) but not something amateur home chefs should really be...

Dicing onions -is- easy, but don't do the Gordon Ramsay method where you make lateral cuts into the onion half. That shit is retarded for anyone who isn't a professional, and it being in his video series is dumb. Slice the half to desired width, then just work from there. Don't do the lateral...

Play the story. Literally everything else is secondary. If you aren't high enough to progress, just do side missions/dailies until you are. Then move forward.

Before I dropped out, that was one of the primary reasons I was getting bored with the game. The expansion itself was great to play through around release, but leveling the crafting was painful to begin with due to the way gathered/hunted materials worked. It was easier once you had combat...

I highly recommend putting any manufacturer specific stickers/emblems in clear view of anyone who might walk by your PC, so they know what type of gear you are rocking.

Honestly I laughed. They really do understand the average asian mmo that isn't FFXI/FFXIV, haw. The pawn creation stuff is pretty out there, though, as far as I know.

Refs being shitty doesn't mean the team they randomly go in favor for is cheating. Doing things to game balls after people had checked them is an entirely different ballgame. If you -really- think that Jerry Jones has refs in his pocket, then I don't know what to say. Even without the refs...

That's just how lanx does posts. It's like reading anything by Caliane: you have to realize that he's posting thoughts from an ipad that was developed in 1987. They are coherent, but the formatting causes issues in modern browsers. I don't think Amadeus Cho being an interim hulk is bad at...

That was an enjoyable read that became a relentless page-turner for the last 80 pages. Damn good book, can't wait for the movie. And I definitely read all the Watney parts in Matt Damon's voice from Good Will Hunting. Fits pretty much dead on.

Eh, unless my cooks are wrong, puta means bitch. So Puta Madre means.. you guessed it, Bitch Mother. Kind of a shitty insult for the most part. Though I guess it is sort of interchangeable with "fucker" in many cases. Either way, calling someone a puta madre is asking to get stabbed in the...

Weaker standup than Craig Ferguson. But better desk presence. Very similar bits though.

As a Cowboys fan, I would argue that while he wasn't "the" most important piece, the threat of him getting the ball and Smithing it up the middle every-fucking-play has to have a major impact on opponents' pass defense last season. I don't think our rush is going to be nearly as good, largely...

Not even a question: FF9 is one of the better games in the franchise, and a replay is warranted. X-2 and 13-2 are both great games, and mechanically superior to the main line game they follow. Haven't played 13-3 at all though, so not sure where that stands.

I remember watching that as a kid and not knowing what the hell was going on. But I had some toys! Just like the weird ass Sectoids or whatever. HOLY SHIT they have a modern website.Sectaurs.com What. The 80s were so awesome they have transcended space and time, apparently.

The sheer goofiness of One Punch Man on top of standard anime styles? Is going to be either incredibly lame or absolutely amazing. Leaning towards option number 2.

What version of the show were you watching? I thought it was heavily implied by his statements that they were tools to get his name out there, not any sort of friend. Granted, I watched on gogoanime, so my translation might have been fubar.

Touching back on this briefly, I also didn't say that ketosis isn't a slap patch for non-weight related issues. It is a solution to very specific neurological disorders and specific chemical imbalances in instances that standard medical treatment appears to fall short, and it is also considered...

Admittedly, I didn't address your points in my previous post. I never said short term Keto was bad for you, just that Ketosis is a response to lackluster intake, hence a "bad" reaction. I specifically pointed out that long term keto solutions were not good, and then stated the one-time...

What the bullshit is the keto nonsense and why did it come in after I refuted all the bullshit "fasting" crap? Keto is a state the body enters when it is (tada!) not consuming enough carbs. Not a healthy amount of carbs; a body required carb deficit. It is -not- something you maintain long...

Did someone just say Rocknrolla was dumb? You might be a bad person for thinking that. That movie was literally Snatch 2.0 and it built up to a sequel that will most likely never happen. Great f'n flick.

Except right up until that point he'll appear to "normal people" that he is fast forwarding through reality. When he hits that moment, he has theoretically infinite time to do whatever he wants. Because at any point after, he is moving faster than time can theoretically keep up with...

Dude. DUDE... You need to mash the shit out of those tomatillos, and then use the as part of a base for slow-cooking some chicken. Tomatoes, Tomtatillos, Cilantro, Lime Juice (or limes. BE BOLD.) and let it do its thing for like 3-4 hours. It will come out magical.

Use the link option when making the post (don't just copy/paste the link) and the stuff that isn't in quotation marks can be edited to show whatever. Likethis.

In specific dishes I guess that would be pretty useful, but as the only thing I really steam is rice, I personally don't see the usefulness overall. Especially being a special machine -just- for steaming. Easy to pop shit in and have it steamed? Sure. How often are you steaming shit? That...

Eh, I'd guess pretty close to 15%, possibly under but more likely right around that mark. There'd be a lot more visible vein action (even at rest) if he was at 12%. Either way he's at the point where it takes greater effort than just moving a few calories around to stay in that shape, so...
