    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    Not every card game needs a free to play model. For me it'll depend what the marketplace actually looks like. MTGO requires very little of you if your goal is "play some games of Magic the Gathering." Buy 5-10 dollars worth of tickets a few times a year, build something interesting, head over to...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    What levels are the elementals? Do you just park there with a full group of like-minded individuals and grind 56-59 or something? The little optimization stuff that classic game servers encourage I find to be damned interesting.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    What they could do is put some sort of unique buff on each of the bosses and mini-bosses of Classic that boosts their damage and health, for this hypothetical we'll call it "Mitigation of the Mighty." If that doesn't quite get the job done we could have a second buff that lowers the resistances...

    MTG thread

    It's more basic than that even. We get better over time at doing things. These days when you sit down to play a brand new card game you've got a whole series of heuristics to approach it with. You can also learn from everyone a zillion times faster than you could when the internet was still new.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For a while I was really struggling with gear. The Mythic+ chest wasn't putting out and neither where the Warfronts. I had a couple item slots that were just always lagging behind. Then a pug Zul shat out a 390 titanforged cloak with socket followed by a titanforged ring from the shitty weekly...

    As a Horde player whenever I would join a raid or mythic+ group it felt like nearly everyone had Warmode on.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Rather than scale up character power for being outnumbered they could scale up the Warfront rewards. You still get your dick knocked into the dirt the same amount but instead of a 10% bonus to war resources and AP maybe it scales up to 20/30/40+% if you're just completely fucked. Maybe include a...

    MTG: Arena

    They didn't need to do much more than have the system fudge the numbers some so that you were a little less likely to get 5ths and much less likely to get several 5ths in a row but now they've launched and are looking at some much, much bigger changes.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What this guy is saying. I really like when Book Littlefinger brings his "daughter" to the Arie and we get to spend a bunch of time with Paeter teaching Sansa all kinds of shit. Aside from planning to eventually get in her pants he's also *ahem* grooming her to be a force in her own right. Her...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    My fan theory for over a decade was that the real villain of the series is Danny. She was terrible at everything and would eventually land in Westeros and torch the whole continent. The Others are the natural counterbalance and low key the heroes we deserve. I was not expecting Danny to be full...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It passes the time just the same. It wasn't just ice breath. It was evil ice breath. That means it had the qualities of Evil and Cold. The Wall was only resistant versus Cold and for your damage reduction to factor in you need to have DR for each keyword. It's been a while but I'm pretty...

    Wait until the big reveal where The Night King isn't even the villain but the real villain is the woman he fell for and she's like 100000x more badass and the final confrontation of the show is between Danny and The Other (see, people thought the ice guys were the Others but they aren't there's...

    In the books I figure Sam will eventually blow the horn he found while ranging and that brings the wall down. It will not be as cool as the dracoliche.

    Everquest - Coirnav Progression Server

    Burning Affliction 3 on Druids is great. Their highest level dot in Classic is I think level 40 making BA2 exactly as beneficial. It's not really that big of a deal though. One of the selling points of these servers is that you get to stuff a character with more loot than would ever have been...

    Competitor Cyber Squatting our website, Stealing our companies goodwill and confusing the market. What can i do about this?

    Step one is to hire a lawyer to write a stern letter. It's not very expensive (relatively) and has a high chance of success. If it doesn't work you're established your claim and a history of the steps you have undertaken to attempt to resolve the issue.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    My personal guess is that once he was part of the way through the Winds of Winter he realized there was no way he was going to be able to conclude the series (and have it meet his standards) with just the final two books. He also doesn't want to write more than two books. He then convinced...

    Build me 1000 ships! Poof, wood pulled out of Ironborne ass, ships done, beats existing fleet to location, stomps over everyone in every encounter. Any issues I have with the later episodes of the series I blame on them just plain running out of time. They had to unlock fast travel to finish...

    I unsubscribed as well. In its current state it felt like the game was playing me more than I was playing it. If a game requires a substantial time investment I'm fine with that but I despise being managed. So much of the game's content revolves around thinly veiled mechanisms designed to get me...

    I reread the entire series over the summer and as I had always planned I skipped 100% of Danny's chapters from every book and all of Tirion's chapters in the final book. It made the whole thing a breeze.

    Eight or so I think? Some PvP some PvE. I don't think I have the heart to play through vanilla PvP again. I did it once in era to say I climbed that mountain but getting random exploded by max level rogues wasn't compelling game play.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I propose that the primary objective be to get as many folk and related folk onto the same server first.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    I've only done one run and even with the final bits of exp from the final encounters I didn't even hit 21. Does the game just tend to cap out around there or did you guys get to 21, 22, etc?

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I very much hope Classic outpaces whatever internal estimates Blizzard has, even the most optimistic ones, so they have to face up to the indisputable proof that they've been on the wrong track and have been for a while. "Let's just branch off with an entirely new expansion and time line"...

    I've played on and off for a long time but I've hurt myself pretty badly by playing in an unfocused manner.
