    Valkyria Chronicles

    Btw in case people don't read news sites or reddit, this releases next week, 11/11. Price is 20dollars/20euros, includes all console DLCs, you can buy it on GMG with a 23% discount though(the main coupon that's on front page) and there's also a 10% discount for preorder, which I think stacks, so...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Oh yeah nevermind then. Have little interest in the multiplayer stuff myself so whatever. Don't mind buying the game though, I don't feel I should like get the game for free cause the previous 2 games were bad(and ME3 was fairly good, besides the ending which ruined the series, but I don't...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Unless they have dedicated servers, generally cracked stuff works fine with like hamachi or that new fancy thing I forgot the name of that replaced Hamachi.

    He just loses bets all the time, not his fault man, he doesn't want to buy the games but he has to.

    Guild Wars 2

    Yeah I saw a reddit post about it so logged in for 5secs to unlock it and logged off again. I played a few of the episodes before, when I get bored I'll play the rest.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Well on the upside, they're dropping the review embargo before the actual release of the game, which lately is a bit uncommon. So there's that. On the other hand a lot of DA2 reviews were good, so wouldn't put too much weight into them. I'll definitely buy day1 stuff though, not everything...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    For now yeah, it was known for a while already that Wildstar was the last large project, besides Titan(which was cancelled in the meantime). Only thing to look forward to is possibly Black Desert, since it's being ported relatively soon after the korean release, though it's going to be published...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah that's why you never go back to LotA, it's harder and gives shit loot and takes longer. ST is just way better for casual raiding and since 2.4 it's basically the place to go to for gearing up, until whenever they make hunts good again. Probably not before 2.5 though, which will have the 3rd...

    Did you check the AH thing? Not sure if you have any money though, but can probably i70 for like 400k or so and then it's ST queue all day long. Other than that I think you're better off running dungeons than labirynth. Also obviously, spend your soldiery on gear asap.

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    On the relay map yeah you can spread out a good bit, on the reactor map(I think it was a reactor), it's like a really closed room and it makes it super hard to spread out well enough, if the monster focuses you you kinda have to run into other people since there's no other way to run which ends...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Divinity: Original Sin? This game will need to be really good to beat that, though so far what they've shown looks much better than 2, or even 1 for that matter, so I'm fairly positive about the game. Need to wait a bit more though.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You can be any class BUT you need a Zenith weapon equipped, meaning you can't get atmas while lvling, which sucks. On the other hand they massively increased atma drop rates and people are reporting getting all 12 atmas within a single (long) day, which would have been a joke prepatch when it...

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    Played 5-6 games, the game looks pretty poor. L4D I thought was pretty fun but this isn't designed properly. On one hand, if the monster is retarded, the game is way too easy. On the other, if the monster is smart and basically just circle around the map and feeds constantly while avoiding all...

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    They apparently sent me a bunch of codes, so here, too lazy to do PMs: I assume they're steam codes like the original one.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah both LoA and ST(since 2.4 patch). Especially now with the removal of ST lock out, LoA is completely worthless other than glamour(that monk armor looks so good).
  16. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh then you could probably do it, tbh it doesn't matter you need like 2 tanks for the entire thing, other tanks are just there to distract adds or what not. You want to get it out of the way asap as you're not ever going back in there once it's done, just need to unlock ST. For ST, you'll need...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Don't think you can queue as 52 anyway. For gearing early on, you're probably better off running dungeons and stuff. Try to unlock all the trials and all the normal dungeons so you can run high lvl roulette and trial roulette, these give decent soldiery every day, and the runs themselves...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It's pretty nice. Actually is fairly complex even though there's very little to none positional requirements(every minute you want to hit from the back once and every 20secs from the flank once assuming a WAR isn't doing the slash debuff for you). There's a lot of off the GCD stuff and the...

    Oh right, they removed the metallic colored dyes and some of the cash shop minions.

    There's literally no changes from the preliminary patch notes that were posted last week.

    Patch up for download, it's 2gb. They also have a weird surprise stream atFFXIV?f'?ff?f?2.4??O?????f?????f'?ff?f??fZ ?f??f^?o-?*?s - YouTube, don't know what for but the timer ended as the patch went up for download. Edit: Stream is nothing, just patch notes.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well the downtime isn't related to the amount of content in this case. They're doing a 1day maintenance cause they need to optimize the code/servers for the doubling of the housing areas. Shit's gonna take a while, probably cause they have to backup everything first in case shit goes wrong, then...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    In general I'd say most visible puzzles are solved in that place with no clue other than what's given in the same place(plaques to read and shit like that). There's a few things that require help from other places, but not that many and pretty much always very close(same zone or same "block" but...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah heaven's eye III or quickarm III is the most logical. heaven's eye is the same as bard but no other class, quickarm isn't used by anyone. Every other is used by 2 classes already, plus there's kind of a logic(the crit are for both casters, the det are for both str melees, the parry for both...

    Go to the subredditnewest submissions : ffxivclick on Useful Information, it has a bunch of stuff for returning players and shit, like summary of patch notes, what to do at 50 and so on. Desynth reset books I'm not sure would even sell well at first. I might look into making a few GSM and CUL...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So much for not fucking up the economy before a patch, I woke up after the notes went up and everything is all fucked. Not sure why they felt it was necessary to post the actual materials needed for every recipe. On top of that the only crafting I decided to gear since I came back, alchemy, is...

    Civilization - Beyond Earth (Alpha Centauri Sequel)

    Yeah in case you wanna buy it, GMG has this VIP thing, you log in, click on the VIP thing and you get pretty big price cuts on a few games. It's 35$(or 35euros) with this on there, which for a new game is cheap as shit anyway.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Nowadays people kinda sleep through it, you can survive most of the shit even if you don't dodge it due to ilvl increase and echo(when you wipe you get more stats). I did the relic quest on every class since I came back and also farmed titan like 30times to get a weapon for my retainer(which...

    Nintendo 3DS News, Games, etc.

    You obviously need a cart to run stuff that's not a real game, otherwise whoever designed it would be fired. You also need a certain version of the firmware to run them(obviously an old one), so if you updated your 3DS recently you're probably out of luck. There's some homebrew work for a...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Yeah don't think it's that bad either, I just launch it when I play a game on it, like uplay. It's basically like mmos launchers, people don't quit mmos because they have a launcher. As long as it's not riddled with spywares or installing random shit, who cares really. I guess it's an issue if...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Weird, my rogue didn't have an issue in rogue gear. Had 41 evasion though, I took evasion on char creation, max dex obviously and had 3pt dodge. I mean on last boss he got one shot a few times but in general he was roughly as "tanky" as my mino barb mostly because he got hit a lot less, even...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think they post patch notes before the downtime, to avoid economy changes in response to stuff in them. I guess a rough preview could be made but they already made several previews(rogue class, shiva, new coil, hildebrand etc) so I think that's all. Patch notes will probably go up during...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Yeah fish is good. Turtles should still spawn, though maybe they stop at some point not sure. Also get the necklace from hmm, some place, that lets you ignore food and overweight on one char. It was on the west side, I wanna say sewers but not sure. Great neck for minos.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh yeah I'm sure those 3 hours of doing garbage content to be entirely geared and ready to raid is so terrible and it's not like you can buy the gear with tomes that drop in dungeons. Cmon, in what game do you get to raid without doing like stupid daillies for reputation for some shit enchant or...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    As long as there's room to kite, yeah pretty much. The harder parts of the game throw a lot of shit at you at the same time though and you get surrounded and shit. Ranged mobs also force you to do some more maneuvering. The bog is probably one of the easier parts of the game. Catacombs or...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    You don't click stuff through doors, doesn't work, but there's pressure plates and stuff that are not obvious in the area. I was stuck for a pretty long time in the mines too, on the upside, I found a bunch of secrets I had missed when I was looking how to progress. Meteor forge is purely...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well there's a lot of stuff to do and 2.4 comes out next week. They release quite a lot of content, though depending on your tastes there might not be that much but great game to sub for like a month or two, do all the content, then take a break for 4-6months and so on. Since 2.0 well, 1 new...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Firearms isn't too bad, but only for one weapon and it's only for like "oh shit I need to kill shit" moments. Damage is fairly low otherwise. Sadly, missile is also low, so mostly your options are to either throw bombs(don't need the throw skill for that either, just need to make bombs which you...

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    It opens up about 2/3 into the game or something I forgot when but yeah it's slow as shit. The game was criticized a lot for that.
