    Neverwinter: PC

    ... so button mashing is counter productive? seriously think about what you are saying. That IS depth you are describing. spamming all your attacks, causing pointless annoying knockbacks hinders play. While using finesse and well timed actions, aids. Again, I'm not saying its perfect...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Thoughts on this games free to play. As mentioned previously, far far better then champions online. Which just shot themselves in the foot. first off, technically everything in the game can be gained via play alone. You could in theory get everything, and not pay a dime. so thats good...

    Neverwinter: PC

    no depth. skills have cast times which require time and precision to land. I'm not going to pretend I like that design... but I do have to point out, managing your skills properly with mechanics like that, is depth of a sort. Not much though. it does get a bit better higher up. npcs hit...

    nah. AD is per server too. I started on Mindflayer due to people here, but then swapped to dragon to play with friends. could not exchange anything between the two. Yeah, not all that surprising. but did want to be clear on that.

    Neverwinter: PC

    to clarify a tiny bit. its not per account. its per server. so it works for mailing or sending AD to another character on the same server, however, does not work for sending to one on a different server.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    City of Steam sucked me right in. This not so much. Is new heroes only cash shop? or is there a means to unlock heroes via playing, and just cash shop for costumes? Extremely limited skill trees, and stat advancement is not very desirable either. UI is weak. Except being able to...

    Iron Man 3 [Spoilers Everywhere]

    yeah, reducing Iron patriot to just a name drop is a huge mistake imho. It had no point. it annoys fans, and casuals won't know who he is at all. so why do it? Another point on the movie I think would be the odd Avengers tie-ins. I'm not 100% sure on the point of giving Tony anxiety...

    City of Steam

    yeah. its a diablo variant. first impressions are way better then marvel super heroes for me. Although the cash shop stuff is typical browser mmo. not sure how draconian it is, but its sure in your face. Cant seem to figure out weapon swapping?

    The girls that went in are dead. Totally different people came out. if you think anyone can just shrug off that kind of shit, you are out of your mind.

    i didnt mind it. its not the mandarin. Tarrant makes his Batman point. yet... we just got 3 movies without Batman in them so... yeah, that way worse. At least here they don't pretend he was the Mandarin. More annoyed with Iron patriot. Overall, really liked the movie. "should...

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    first 10 min I was not remotely impressed. Tutorial was boring as hell. Stiff not fun controls. character damage output was anemic, making the game tedious. taking 5+ hits to kill the most basic trash. :/ outside the tut, it was more like 10-20 hits. the events spawning while running...

    yeah. fucked up for life. The whole "fate worse then death" argument in the abortion thread. There is no coming back from something like this. Even surviving. The possible girl or two that died in there, horrific beyond imagining. But even these that got out. Their lives are forever...

    They've already established non-christian myths, so they can really do anything they want if they keep going. Alt realities, time travel. lovecraftian. ragnorak, etc. whatever they want.

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    I feel FFA PvP is kindof a bad design concept. or, at least its a design concept that needs SO much good integration/systems around it to make it work, it never gets done well. Any dev team that thinks FFA pvp is a good idea, is a bad dev team. and invariably the games they put out is going to...

    10 from dex, 5 from base, and 1% elven. My 40 rogue has 26.9%. crit. 5% base, 3% feat, 9% attributes, 8.9% crit rating. Do you see the problem? each damage multiplier is independent. But crit % all rolls together. So base damage, skill damage, str bonus, crit damage, combat...

    i going to reroll. Make a CW named Anivia the pacifist. Drop black holes on my CW allies, and clerics to pull them into our back line. Use knockbacks on players getting focused by rogues when they get to about 50% to prevent the kills. Just all around do everything I can to troll allies.

    CW are obviously meant to troll the rogues, guardians, and GWF's with constant knockbacks on npcs being tanked/dps'd.

    Neverwinter: PC

    keys are from zen shop. I have noted a design flaw in rogues. The "dex primary" appears to be a lie. Str is primary. Then charisma, then dex. Is this a 4e problem or just a this game problem? I have not really broken down how rogue DW works.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    honestly, its better then "end game". End game as a term has several problems. 1. it trivializes everything that came first. The word implies a race, in there is a start and a finish and that everything before the END is meaningless. A term that suggests aging, and periods is much...

    Seems to be. which is balls. In the 25-30 area. Neverdead graveyard, there is a quest that gives you an asset reward. (assets being people, hammers, shears, etc.) I was given a level 2 or 3 leatherworker as reward. 10% faster leather working. Not sure if this was luck, or because...

    Is Christopher Nolan the most overrated director of all time?

    Weird, I think people were misreading what I said about Spielberg. I was making a comparison, asserting I think there have been about 3 directors in our time, that have been heralded as space jesus for movies. Cameron, Spielberg, and now Nolan gets that kind of praise. Cameron and Spielberg...

    Is Christopher Nolan the most overrated director of all time?

    If Nolan isn't... then who is/was? I'm inclined to say yeah he is. Sure he has some good movies. Most of which are pretty flawed, leaving them at just good or above average. There is credit due. But, hes getting way more then credit. Cameron and Spielberg are probably the only other two...

    what exactly does hitting max level achieve? hit 60, quit the game sooner? how does you being 60 effect my game experience? Foundry gives you exp/gold. No diamonds, no loot. I don't like it. but I dont really see the point of racing to 60 either way.

    dont think anyone here is pulling that. In game maybe. What do you guys think on calling soft launches "open beta"? Is this good or bad? From a technical standpoint, "open beta" is pretty clearly not a beta, and hasn't been in a very long time. At best, its a server test. But often...

    15? you can do foundry at level 4 as soon as you leave the intro zone. Foundry doesn't have craft nodes as far as I can tell. And, only the 1 end chest, which I've only gotten greens from too. Players can't create custom items for them. which is a big weakness both ways. it can't be...

    a big problem with stealth is generally, who has it? Wow was a trifecta. Stealth, stuns, and burst in one package. that is just fucking retarded. druids having perma-stealth was not nearly as big of a problem for example. Tracking? one of the advantages of perma stealth is how it relates...

    I thought the char creation was pretty remarkable. I mean you have the silly background stuff. where you can pick gods, hometowns, and various origin stories. Then add your own little blurb. The bodies, etc. nothing major sure. But if you do mess with the head and body controls it can...
