    Didn't know, but not sure you can get this to work on the emulator though, since I assume the emulator would need network support and I'm not sure it does that?

    Dark Souls

    There's still a few issues but the lastest version of the emulator can run it very smoothly yeah, provided you have a beefy enough setup(mostly CPU from what I understand). Doesn't have any multiplayer element though obviously, since the servers are down and they haven't really managed to...

    They said they want to nerf it but last time they talked about it they also said they didn't know if they were gonna nerf it this patch because they weren't sure how to nerf it. I think they could potentially nerf it by making it damage based, so for example applying very small hits of an...

    In that article there's a video about vaal skills and they mention something that I think is new? When they're talking about arc and vaal arc, they're talking about the reworked vaal arc that they mentionned before, but they also say "we thought it wasn't enough so we made it so vaal arc gives...

    Well your first runs will probably picking random shit because the info won't be out there for a little while. Honestly I don't think it'll be super userful while leveling, you'll probably pick the least annoying shit to get some free loot and get the fuck out. Currency/gems I think is what...

    Battlefield V

    I felt it was an alternate universe WW2 thing at first, but the fact it's very very minor, without like an obvious big reveal at the end(floating fortress in the sky or some shit like that), I'm not sure. It might just be to show off the character customization options, like "eh you can have a...

    Meh for now I'm leaning towards skipping this, everything I see about the game looks pretty bad there doesn't seem to be any redeeming aspect. On one hand I usually like playing mmos just for leveling and stuff but apparently leveling in this is super garbage(although they might change the xp...

    I get what he's saying, the cosmetics price are really stupid in PoE compared to some other games. They're kinda like Black Desert shit, but at least they don't give stats and stuff(and I know you can buy shitty ones/buy them ingame with the help of RNG AH nonsense). On the other hand I never...

    The problem of the asian market, or really the chinese market, is Tencent tends to buy up companies/the rights to publish games in China, then in parallel works on making clones of said game(like actual clones, not games in the same genre), and then sell that in direct competition with the...

    They said it's to reduce "black market", aka gold selling and shit, but not sure how much it'll do.

    If the GCU stops, it's possible Amazon will stop theirs too, no need to keep it going without competition(or they might reduce it to 10% or whatever).

    Right click a weapon or armor(other stuff can't be upgraded), then press the Enchant button at the bottom. Mostly you're looking to add +25% as ele damage to your weapons and maybe upgrade them to exceptional if they're not, but shit's kinda unnecessary. If you've finished white march already...

    Btw they announced the Definitive edition is also coming to PC in August(same as Xbox release). Notably it'll have a completely rewritten and reworked act3, a new journal, map markers and a reworked inventory so you can see all your chars inventory on the same screen(they've shown that one in...

    Huntsman ult after this patch is definitely worth losing charge. From what I understand it one shot bodyshot CWs with the handgun, so you can kill a chaos patrol in one ult(which is a huge fucking deal) and most of a stormvermin patrol pretty easily too(remember handgun ignores shields if you...

    Vermintide 2

    They did some changes from beta to live and the patch is somehow fucking worse. Exe sword nerf was absolutely not needed when the weapon was only barely on par with Halberd, and generally harder to use(needed to actually aim, slower swings for horde, smaller reach). The glaive nerf is kinda bad...

    Depends on location/time I think. I've had decent enough results with legend pubs, I wanna say about 50% winrate. Some days it's just terrible though, some days it's good. Champion is like 90% winrate though so there's definitely a big jump. Good thing about fails is as you said, a lot of time...

    If you ram you take hull damage, generally if you're within ram range you can just assault instead. I think ramming is only good if you can sink them with it. If you have the big boat you can sink a lot of fuckers in one turn though with the big cannons, but need to grind a lot of pirate...

    Oh yeah I know that too, every league I'm like "damn nice new skills, nice reworks, maybe I'll do this or that". And then I make a witch summoner(necromancer since they added ascendencies but even before that I just made summoners). I just like summons and while I think PoE isn't perfect with...

    I know it's not bad was just saying, it'd be easier to implement than somehow reworking the whole leveling process so it's faster, and would save a bunch of time while making players feel good about it.

    I usually take 2 days to get to maps or whatever, I don't mind it taking slower, I find the leveling interesting enough, I actually ID gear and shit which is horribly inefficient but I know once I get to maps I'll get bored pretty quick anyway. The thing is you can make it really fast if you...

    Yeah I checked that out at first when I was trying to respec but didn't like it, I ended up using the mod manager thing someone posted on reddit, along with his first couple of mods, one of them lets you change the game speed with the speed thing(like, not just combat) and the other lets you use...

    I'm playing a pure Cipher, Beguiler sub, which only strength is you get a slight focus refund on using CCs on targets that can be affected by sneak attack(basically flanked or any affliction), which is nice to chain charm early on but barely affects shit later on since I start fights with 50...

    Yeah I think I'm done with this for a while until they patch shit in into an acceptable state. I was pretty soured after having to use console tricks to fix my character after a basic respec because they somehow didn't QA respecs at all since losing watcher abilities should be a big enough...

    The bad spells are for the most part the same as PoE1, so knowing that does help a lot, but yeah there's way too many shitty spells. My pure cipher actually focuses on taking passives because of that which is kinda dumb design. First rank the only spell I have is charm, 2nd rank is Recall...

    First season was a lot of money too. I still don't get why it's so expensive however, like what does the money get you. I get sponsoring teams in other games, you pay a relatively low amount of money to pay salary for a bunch of players and their coaches, fly them around and shit, overall it's...

    I'll wait to see what the actual bonuses are but yeah that looks pretty shit. That said it's not like I haven't played games doing that before. B&S was the same, initial price, premium membership and cash shop. You could convert gold to cash shop currency(like this one) to buy shit but the...

    That's cause Lone Wolf is meant to make it easier though, while this isn't built in. That said this is probably not so bad either and maybe even easier than the first game. I haven't really tested but you can just spam all your summon items and rest between every fight I think? That means as...

    Found some bow that fires snowballs or some shit, it fires like 3times and then for some reason the snowballs do aoe damage which also hit the same target again, so you basically hit 6times with it. While it does less damage than a normal bow, it still does fucking retarded damage. So now I have...

    Yeah casters are slow starters, it was the same in the first game too. That said I assume martial characters will still be the best for pure damage by a large margin. If you want to make a killing machine main character you're better off looking at multiclass melee based damage dealers. I made...

    New league sounds nice.

    Oh and a little trick I figured out for dialogue checks. While the game only gives you a part of what your other characters have as skills for dialogue checks, it rounds up. Which means having 1 gives you 1 regardless. So it's useful to put 1 in everything on your companions, which basically...

    I don't believe they've given an exact time, their tweet says "in a little over 24hours" which could be like 30hours really. 5PM EST is the 24hours timeframe though, so expect it around that yeah, could be a few hours later.

    Should work out hard to say though haven't been far enough into the game. One cool thing about multiclassing Cipher is it works alright with martial classes since you get a free 20% dmg buff from the soul whip and there's plenty of short cast spells. I don't know if it'd be worth taking Charm...

    You'll definitely be able to, but for a first playthrough it'd be really rough. A lot of what makes these runs doable later down the road is when people figure out where the strong items are, beeline to them, do non combat quests to grind some levels, and then just fuck shit up. But for a first...
