I haven't played in awhile either but what was true on live is still the same here afaik. KC isn't the best exp but its probably the easiest place to get pugs in for a couple more levels then move on to Sebilis. If you have some people to play with though go to the Hole, Chardok or Charasis...

I just started playing this yesterday and so far it is fairly fun, well written and definitely gives off that Oregon Trail vibe. Good stuff.

A fresh P99 server would be a lot of fun, it's a shame that they still guard their db/code so jealously even after so many years.

Maybe they are going through the Greenlight process still, who knows. Anyway the game is losing its charm for me after a good many hours played now, the +gooder item / level grind is really showing through and the lack of advanced skills beyond -0.01 to a skill timer is a bit of a bummer. I...

Yes bosses can be a pain, especially wizard and ranger versions because its super hard to dodge their attacks. Think I've had a fight take around 25 min to complete non stop before, I ended up just pulling him to a rock to wall tank it and run from his spells while healing. Levels and gear do...

QFT - I found an island with a castle full of +4 orcs and a boss, every spawn I get a couple yellows and many purple/blue items... it's pretty neat. I just wish that long swords weren't so damn rare.

I hope that they add an incentive to attacking red enemies, +10-15 exp for killing a skull bull at level 5 was a bit lame. I really wish they would support modding, it would just make the game explode with content.

Once you get past the frustration of not knowing wtf to do and wiki some things it is fairly fun in a grindy way. Playing as a rogue pissed me the heck off (especially fighting bosses) until I figured out how to spec to ninja. It took me awhile to figure out that the class trainers can't...

I don't think they ever fully explained it on the show, all that I can recall is that their two species had some dealings in the past and that Guinan's people were always kept a mystery save that they might be immortal and that they may have suffered from the Borg. Maybe someone else can add...

Well it's not like they had much else to work with for a trailer besides people talking to each other about uninteresting things or monologing in a ships log or interview. It all boiled down to the same thing hinted at in the trailer anyway. Expedition > stupid people > problems > angry space...

Severance : Sword of Darkness did this 12 years ago and it was awesome, a more modern example would be Chivalry : Medieval Warfare. Granted neither is an MMO but still something like the melee systems they demonstrate should be quite feasible. The reasons we haven't seen them attempted has...

Well this movie suffers from the primary problem of most others like it; they barely introduce us to a cast of characters before they start bumping them off, in some cases before we even know their names lol. Also adding on to this issue of emotional disconnect nearly every scene in the film is...

The guy standing around and the empty room I haven't seen before lol. That carved archway has been going around for months though and shows up in all of their videos. They have a nice style at any rate.

Got it today and played for a couple hours... if you wanted a roguelike then look elsewhere. This is a platformer where progression is only possible through repeated deaths and gold farming. You really have to get a hang of the controls and figure out the enemies/traps before you can get...

Same deal really; regen, take the optimal path and have high enough level in constitution.

Any question of who will come out on top in any conflict of interest or arms is kind of a given from the get go of most (not all) of the books in the series save for the first. They (the Culture) are consistently portrayed as being that powerful and dominant and I think that it hurts the series...

This is a fun game aside from some of the platforming bits, it would be pretty sweet if it had a random map gen roguelike mode.

The Culture books can be fun if you space them out, I wouldn't recommend reading one after the other as they all follow the same themes and can get a bit tiresome as a result. I wish the Idrian's had wonor at least done something to limit the Cultures complete dominance throughout the series.

To be fair it was awhile ago that I read it and about all that I remember is that the premise of the world was interesting, the only character I liked was Seedless and the ending was of dubious quality. Perhaps its characters were more realistic and intriguing than I remember, perhaps not but...

My problem is that content changes introduced by this expansion amounts to nothing more than could be expected from a modest player made mod. It is a step in the right direction but it's a very minor one. The AI attacking you or not based on your ranking is stupid and boring, being able to...

I feel badly for you Arch, my dog was killed by this a couple of years ago and it is not a pleasant way to go. The usual treatment for this sort of thing is administering subcutaneous fluids at home on a regular basis + diet changes. For my 30 lb dog I had to do it twice a day and it was not...

This was a good mod; it adds some actual races that you can choose from which makes things a bit fun but the game is still terribly flawed. Every sandbox game feels exactly the same; the same choices, same two heroes joining youevery single game, the AI always leaves you alone for hours on end...

If I had known that Leviathan Wakes was jointly written by Daniel Abraham under a pseudonym then I never would have picked it up and read it. Well played,. Anyway it started out alright but over the course of several hundred pages it turned into total drivel. The man is more interested in...

I read a few of his Mistborn books and couldn't really get into them and some of his other books felt like fairly generic fantasy fare but I thoroughly enjoyed Way of Kings. It's not that it is a flawless novel, it has several, but the drama of bridge four really drew me in and got me to give a...

Amen. I wish he had left WoT to rot in favor of this, his own story.

This might be alright... if it was a mini series but since that never seems to happen in the US it will probably end up being a whiny/angsty drudge over the course of 10+ episodes before anything interesting happens.

I wouldn't let them sway you as it is essentially the exact same game; the changes that they have made basically amount to a modest mod pack and a performance patch. Heroes aren't standing around in pens all over the map anymore and that's great... but you will always get the same drunk...

Spoiled in the trailer, M. Night is probably raging or rocking back and forth in a corner in the fetal position somewhere at this very moment. Going off of the trailer this movie looks a lot like Hatchet except survivor boy has a cyber suit/spear thing and the ship had a malfunction instead...

I agree and the CSI team banter is pretty irritating as well. The show definitely needs to focus more on Hannibal and his doings, even if it is just on his past. I know they need to show Wills progression toward a breaking point but I wish they would ditch the episodic formula (killer of the...

Yes... the trailer makes it look like another monster movie... in space! Hopefully it will be more than just a collection of dull shock/surprise scenes on a space backdrop. It doesn't look like it though, they have already established that they run into a hostile life form and everything goes...

Well, the question of Peggy's future role on the show has been resolved I think, there really wasn't much more that they could do with her without shifting the focus of the show. For now I like this new development. Marie's comments at the restaurant were gold and yes, Pete is a giant douche...

That was the end of the season? Now I know why people are disappointed, what a weak way to end things.

They sure did make a whole lot of fuss over nothing, the episode itself wasn't very interesting either. There is no graphic child violence of any sort being shown at all (so no worries), just talk and the usual corpses with Will's Cylon Crime Scene Time VisionT. The abridged version was...

A little bit but there is a point to it and it is good to gain a grasp of the power balance at home before they all mach off to war and start carving out parts of England and Ireland. I wonder how Ragnar's power & position will be affected by the flu? outbreak.

This show is even worse than True Blood but in a different way. It is incredibly boring and drawn out whereas True Blood is pretty stupid and zany yet somehow it manages to be entertaining from time to time (as long as you scene skip past certain characters). I am up to episode 8 and I just...

This. Hopefully they figured out last season that no one gives a damn about them.

Yes they are all abridged scenes from that episode tallying up to around half an episodes normal length. Here's to free will and being an adult... whoops.

Second episode was pretty bad and went about how I expected; pointless town drama with a tiny bit of the overarching threat of the week. The whole cop drama in a fictional setting bit has been over done lately and this setting is darned dull so far. As someone mentioned Babylon 5 above...

Probably and his exit line before the finger was something like oh I think I see a friend.

They seem really determined to kill off most of Ragnar's cool yet mostly silent companions. Does anyone actually like the priest? So far he just takes up time while looking put out by everything around him in every single scene. He's also completely devoid of any personality or screen...
