    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Much better class mechanics, more interesting raid encounters. Better class balance, though still not great. Arena.

    It's not true that most 16gb sticks are dual rank. Some are, some aren't. All 32GB sticks should be dual rank.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I can't remember a single hard DPS check in BC until you hit M'uru, at which point lol just about everything you can throw at the fight is required.

    And as we saw in Classic, every stupid thing like world buffs will become the meta and mandatory.

    Very Hard is... very hard? I just did the first cauldron and that bellowback at the end was brutalizing me, I had to actually spam the entire room with traps, craft resist pots, and you know, use actual game mechanics and it was still hard. What difficulty did most people play this on the...

    Kinda weird how the Cauldrons look exactly the fucking same as the Remnant Vaults in ME: Andromeda.

    I mean, I'd been wanting to play this since it came out, but I didn't have a PS4 and when I finally got my 3080 I've played literally nothing but Shadowlands since I got it.

    They just took every mechanic from every open world game and put them in one game? This is Far Cry+Tome Raider+Asassins Creed+RDR+Skyrim. Oh wait you hack horses so it's also Watch Dogs.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't do Mythic raids this season because my class is too poop to bring more than 1 of, but I was 4/8 in BFA S3 and 7/12 in BFA Season 4. I really just don't think WoW can ever be the game people here want it to be. It is not possible to make a 17 year old game fun with 20+ hours a week of...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The last 4 bosses are very hard. As they should be. Guilds that want progression content should have something to work towards all season long. Getting Cutting Edge shouldn't be a given, the guild I'm in takes pride in working to beat the clock on getting the final Mythic boss down each...

    It's secure boot. You can disable secure boot to boot, but what you should actually do is completely reinstall Windows 10 on a GPT formatted drive that supports secure boot going forward. Don't try to re-use your old Windows install.

    There's a bunch of problems regarding the actual supply chains, the foundries are located close to where the raw materials are processed, etc. Have you played a game like Factorio? It really doesn't matter how many chip foundries you build unless you also have all the factories that produce...

    It's true, 4k is not great for gaming. No GPUs on the market can push most new games at 100+ FPS at 4k. Most people will go with a 2560x1440 display, or an ultrawide like 3440x1440 or something different.

    All the chips come from the same handful of foundries, that aren't actually owned by Nvidia or AMD, they're owned by TSMC and Samsung. So production going towards an additional product takes away production capacity from other things. New foundries capable of fabricating chips at increasingly...

    It does add ilvls because they still have to make the overall season ilvl span bigger to account for all these different difficulty levels and progression through the season.

    Eh, Mythic isn't that hard or exclusive. Very mediocre, non-selective guilds can clear 6 or 7/10 Mythic by the end of the season if they're willing to put in the progression every week. Normal definitely served a purpose this time around, it was quite challenging for the first few weeks when...

    Doing fine? They're not selling nearly as many consoles as they could, which means not selling as many games for those consoles as they could since that's where they actually make the money with the licensing, which is the same as losing money.

    I'm just saying that I mostly agree with you but it'd be better if it was more like BC and WOTLK and less like Classic. Classic actually fucking sucks.

    Classic is fucking boring compared to legit vanilla It's filled with autists playing fury warriors, claiming all the loot for themselves so they can grind no-challenge content each week so they can parse 0.2% better with their world buffs that make content that already wasn't challenging into...

    You're missing the point. Most people don't need that much cooler. The non-pro 4 already blows away (pun extremely intended) most other air coolers aside from the big noctua and the dark rock pro, which are complete overkill for what most people are doing with their PC. Most people are not...

    Just as good for most normal usage scenarios. Having a bigger cooler than you need does not actually make your computer run any better. Most CPUs are not maxing out a 200W TDP cooler, the extra 50W headroom worth of TDP from the Pro is not necessary in most cases.

    Having 3-4 tiers of loot within every season is definitely very hard to maintain. They've forced themselves into gear resets by that design.

    The Dark Rock not-Pro 4 is less chonky and just as good unless you are actually generating a ton of heat like with a 9900k/10900k.

    Same about my 1080. Gave it to a coworker's kid so he could play APEX on PC instead of his console. Ex-coworker too since I changed jobs like 2 weeks later. Though I did save a child from a life of peasantry so there's that.
