    There's also the "get some invader with a ghost while you have rampage between 400 and 490 in range of a bloodline and abaxoth while under the effect of a tempest" kind of shit. Some of these are gonna be real annoying to get even if you have all 3 leagues on I think. And yeah the get everyting...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah hard to tell if the description is XI or XIV 1.0. Game is now FF flavored WoW with slow combat. For better or for worse, that depends on your tastes, but you can in fact jump, the hills aren't copy pasted more than any other game(and the game is generally great to look at) and the NPCs are...

    Path of Exile

    They added a system that picks a target in a thin cone in front of you instead of just in a line like before so it's easier to hit stuff with melee skills. Also Frostblade has a stupid range modifier so even though it's a melee attack, you can hit stuff really far from your character(on top of...

    Treshold changes could help. Specifically they're adding a zombie treshold for the good ole zombie army build, the skeleton treshold might not be as shit anymore(but skeletons will probably still be shit), animate weapon jewel might be better although really all it needs is to be more available...

    Hmm melee splash buff, viper strike treshold buff, maybe it's finally time to make a Viper Strike char that works.

    I think most ppl play SC, but most people also stop playing the temp leagues like halfway once they're done with the challenges and stuff. A few ppl also play standard regardless.

    Reminder that they said there's gonna be a bunch of balancing changes, including shit to nerf double dipping mechanics. Although maybe not duration, but still if you design any build atm, have to remember that. They're releasing a manifesto today I think about some of the upcoming changes.

    Basically that's just all it is, a way to keep a ladder of SSF people for vanity/e-peen that's legit instead of the player ran honor based systems there were before. If at any point you stop giving a fuck, you can just convert your char back into the normal leagues anyway. I guess it was...

    Well first for the timers and shit, I was talking of this Releases · anoyetta/ACT.SpecialSpellTimer · GitHub I think. I've seen various screens but since I don't play atm I haven't tested. It's basically ACT plugins that put various info from ACT into visual form, by adding spell timers/duration...

    I wouldn't say skilled players get nothing, they get easier rotations, so less attention required which gives more time to react to raid shit without fucking up cause you were trying to push that perfect rotation. It also possibly means your rotation gets less fucked by being targetted by stuff...

    Meh PLD aggro was only an issue from like 30 to 40 or so I wanna say, when the DPS get their jobs so start doing some more serious damage, and you get...whatever the fuck you get at 30 I forgot, so you fall behind. Before 30 though I didn't have much of an issue. In general I didn't have much of...

    Yeah hopefully they went in depth enough with the reworks so all the whiners complaining about the lack of new healer/tanks get to play the older classes but more unique and clearly defined. Not that they'll stop whining, lots of people are super negative about the new classes being DPS even...

    Yoshi-P in samurai cosplay, done deal. Now to see if it's DPS or tank. Edit: It's DPS. New trailer, skip to 2:08 to go to the end of the first trailer and see the new stuff

    Well can assume rotations will change a lot with the expansion anyway, so Dragoon might not be as shit to play later on. Do expect SAM DPS though, it makes sense for them to just add more DPS classes when most people play DPS anyway. Kinda sucks as I wanted a new healer/tank but eh, maybe the...

    Got a callback invite thing so picked this up earlier this week to get the story done before I really start playing again later a bit before the expansion. Took longer than I thought to get through, mostly cause of i230 req on the last step, but wasn't so bad overall. Had to redo Final steps...

    They can also just add more acts. I mean not sure how the story ends now obviously, but our exile might have to go kick some ass in some other dimension, alternate plane or just another country somewhere(I don't think the world is only Wraeclast and Oriath). It'd just be another act at the end...

    It's different from D3 yeah. In D3, you play the game once(assuming you're a new player, if you're not you don't ever do story again), then you do rifts/bounties. Bounties are just the same game but you only do sort of sidequests shit in the same areas as the story ones, while rifts are entirely...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    But they're perfect ancients, the odds of you having perfect/near perfect ancients before GR70 are like stupid low unless you're just botting rifts or whatever. On top of that they don't actually fuck the balance further by being more powerful than ancients, so sounds pretty good. I assume...

    Looks like some great stuff, not having to replay the game over and over is a great change for people who just want to level new chars and stuff. Sure the 2nd part reuses a ton of stuff but it's still different, the video they showed of the differences shows different weather/daytime(so the...

    Psi had a lot of focus on pets too. You could mind control about everything and the pets would have special abilities based on what you mind controlled(assuming the data was in the files, which for most mobs it wasn't) and they were permanent iirc.

    Sorcerers had elementals I think? Maybe remembering wrong. Psy had mind controlled/clones stuff, Necros had necro stuff, Shaman had a summon based on their speciality(phoenix/bear/wolf), Bards could temp charm iirc and that was more or less it for summons, but it's been so fucking long I could...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    It says you just get bonus reward regardless if I understood right, you just get a chest that has both rewards in them. So seems you can just spam different games and only do act1 bounties with always bonus too, which is nice even not accounting for groups fucking up in pubs.

    On the Nintendo quality, while I'd agree in the ole times, the 3DS was kind of a finnicky little piece of shit, especially that weird ass sliding stick thing. Mine didn't break cause I didn't use it that much, but I've heard a bunch of stories about various parts of the 3DS breaking when ppl...

    For Honor

    Well you can play the game so you kinda know what you get, it isn't really like buying a game 1year before release in early access or preordering a hyped game that no one got to play yet. So not sure what there is to learn really, if you play a game and like it, then you buy it?

    It was Rampage iirc that fucked their servers, they turned that one off and then it worked alright.

    Purge has overall very solid theorical knowledge. He's not the best player himself, but he's ok-ish, at least for a pub. Definitely not pro level. But he's pretty good at explaining stuff in a way that makes sense for new players, he's done it a lot, so he's a good teacher at least. He made the...

    I don't think they'll talk much about that until later. Next month is Frankfurt fanfest, I assume it'll talk about the story a bit and reveal the 2nd class and maybe show some RDM stuff, but the actual expansion info I think will come in the dev letter around april or may, I think it was like...

    Would that make everyone be able to output the same damage, roughly? Cause while sure, you could then do whatever content with any number of people, any high end content is going to have strictly better setups just by virtue of how the damage is done and what they do on the side. Like how many...

    Well map awareness should be there too, and accurate clicking, so that's a few mechanical skills that help. But a lot of dota mechanics rely on different concepts, for example a bunch of it is timing, both in very short windows of time(last hitting, landing skills on moving targets) or longer...

    First answer in the interview is good enough to know this won't matter one bit, basically, console is different servers, so shit is irrelevant. They'll do balance changes if they need for the console only, but different team, different servers, different game. It's like how D3 console issues...

    As I said, server issues sure, client issues no.

    Wow had a fairly solid launch, game wise. Their servers went to shit for a while but that's more cause they probably didn't expect selling like 10times as many boxes as EQ ever had subs or whatever the actual numbers were. But other than that, it didn't crash, it didn't slow down(besides when...

    Can the surface pro4 even run Dolphin decent enough? Surface pro5 I could see it happening but don't know about 4 running. And it's also like 3times the price of a switch so yeah. Granted you said a year or two so it'd be lower at that point.
