    Everquest - Live Servers

    Much harder than RZ. RZ was a control fight with a really cumbersome transition. Once you get a slow burn and stop pets / dots from wiping you in the transition it's easy. Easy if you have a plate tank at least since the single target damage is high. Crusaders is a mass AE damage fight, where...

    Missions are the raids but nerfed for six people in group gear.

    Beat The Crusaders (toughest mission in latest expansion). Now on to figuring out how to box the achievements.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    2021 bards are battlemages with how strong heir dots are. I don't know what a battlemage would look like that isn't already conflicting with existing classes.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Exhibit A for Reason number 2 for why people won't invite rando rogues into groups: they don't care if they contribute much, don't care if they suck and certainly aren't going to try to help the team. They've given up on all of that before the finish the char select screen, and it's your...

    I don't even know what that is. Old ManMcKenzie? That's annoying to group against because it lowers your level. Overlord mata muram would die from one of my zerkers farts.

    What a joke. Nasa let's the taxpayers get reemed for a generation and then when it's politically infeasible to continue they ask for an arbitrary halving of cost and for the private industry to figure it out. Well, the "private industry" did figure it out, and it has nothing to do with SLS.

    EQ is a different game in 2021, but tbh i think I'm having more fun with live EQ now than i ever did before. Real time squad based real time games exist, but boxing in live EQ is a unique gameplay experience.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I think SC has evolved beyond being a fraud / scam. Instead it's just an early access buggy and boring game with incredibly priced cash shop options. The game isn't going to evolve much, there's no massive release on the horizon. To CIGs credit, i predicted they'd have closed down shop by now...

    I have a fire pit in my back yard that i burn fallen branches every few weeks or so. The random branches on tye ground my six year old and i use to make a fire are wet and by the time the fire gets going my kid is ready for something else. Anyway, i always think about building some billows or...

    Lol. Will probably just switch to whatever the fotm class is when end of dragons releases if i play it. Getting tired of condi weaver and the catalyst doesn't really appeal to me.

    Rando thought: i wonder if steam, twitch, xbox live etc are looking into synthetic stream followers that watch you game and talk shit to you. I could use a bonzi buddy to watch me box EverQuest.

    Yeah you need a deep contextualized understanding of the user plus strong understanding of facial clues. All of which is process intensive but not too distant in the future. Google and amazon already know me pretty well just to give me better ads, adding a few more layers to give me emotional...

    In a dream world they'd make EQ open sourced and port it to unreal or unity. Would never be more profitable than the slowly dying cash cow it is now though.

    The astonishing thing about those robots is how low the tolerance is between them. I bet there is some driver for that besides efficiency / space but man you could decrease the number of grid cells by 1% and double the tolerance between the robot rails. Finding out they collide and blow up is no...

    i don't know why so many people say weaver is fragile. I do feel like i have to work hard for moderate dps tho. Condi eles in the harder PvE content have to spec Vipers in order to really satisfy their role as DPS, which drops their survivability significantly...

    That or there are many original games being released and many remasters/sequels because both are profitable. If you find yourself only playing remakes and are annoyed by it, you just played yourself.

    It's more likely that NASA will put out a request for proposal to enable a mars mission that just so happens to align with what is feasible from spacex. This isnt as incestuous as it sounds and is very common and practical. This is doubly true if spacex carries the entire Artemis program and it...

    Yep. I think most of the time we don't care because anything we've been is technologically eclipsed before the techniques are lost. Apollo is a huge exception because of how artificially motivated it was. All other huge progressions of tech like atomic weapons, the internet, the automobile...

    3 key differences: 1. SpaceX could be funded without the US Gov, so the worst they could do is tell them no. 2. If all those bureaucrats assailed SpaceX, once the dust settled they'd still #1 in terms of cost/safety for launches. 3. A lot of this is congressional-backed, in that different US...
