    DOTA 2

    Don't think that's a draft issue but a puppey sucks at every hero but 5ish issue, and 3 of these are junglers(chen, enchant and enigma). Was that was in Na'Vi too, when the strats revolving around these heroes are strong he looks like a good player, when they're not he looks like garbage and...

    Yeah I would assume ST lock would be removed, but they might keep it to stall gear catchup progression, so you'll only be able to upgrade to i100 soldiery and still need several weeks to get 110 sands(or well a lot of hunts), while on the side every few weeks you'll get the new I guess i120...

    Persona timer is locked to your actions though. If you don't go into the dungeon/back to your room, your time stays the same. Do have to plan ahead and shit however I guess. FF LR timer is only relevant the first few hours of the game, which makes the mechanic even more stupid since it's...

    They didn't really create those, unless you mean in general. Those are FF6 iconic bosses, they have been then added to some of the later FF(or remakes of the older ones), so it's pretty nice to see them. They're even fought in the same colisseum that they end up working in near the end of FF6...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Don't think anyone gives a shit if you use Unity, it's a great cheap engine to make indie/low budget games with. People give Brad shit for making videos with STOCK unity assets, and pretending that's their game. If you don't bother making anything and just copy paste bits of stuff you downloaded...

    2.4 is serious business. They posted 2 blog entries too on the Lodestone about Hildebrand(which Ultros/Typhon are a part of) and Shiva.

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    They released a compatibility test if you want to check if your shitty 10years old toaster laptop can run the game or whatever: Grimrock 2 Compatibility Test Legend of Grimrock Also releases next week. SO CLOSE.

    It's dungeon drops gear, it's better than crafted, fuck melding low lvl stuff plus the materias are expensive. It's getting converted once I'm done but no point in converting now. I don't have full sets mind you, just a bunch of pieces at various levels, rest I'll craft once I know what type of...

    They really haven't said shit about the requirements, the stats, the armor type or other important details. As I explained also before in this thread, it's possible, though unlikely, that you'd need the story quest advanced enough to unlock the class(the trainers are shown during the Leviathan...

    Yeah pretty much it's easy to get one level a day in like an hour nowadays. Doesn't take very long to get more though but eh if you don't care about getting to 50 before 2.4, probably doesn't matter much. You should do your main story quests though, it unlocks a lot of shit including dungeons...

    Bunch of classes have off the GCD attacks, procs and different DPS cooldowns(like raging strikes, internal strikes, blood for blood which have varying numbers depending on the class or aren't available at all in some cases), so it's not that easy. But I guess in some ways it might be easier than...

    They're both great main tanks, warrior kinda better as off tank due to stronger snap threat, paladin kinda better as main tank on progression content because Hallowed Ground is an OP defensive cooldown, but both can do either fine. Paladin is boring as shit to play though, while WAR is pretty...

    Music was good, but FFXIV has a lot of better tracks, in my opinion. Some are kinda like eh, but stuff like the Garlean Empire theme, Garuda's theme or Pharos Syrius theme are really fucking good.

    Nintendo 3DS News, Games, etc.

    There is very little story in Etrian Odyssey. I actually started with IV when I bought my DS and after I finished Bravely Default(which is definitely great) and had no issue, as far as I understand they're standalone stories. Game is more about mechanics than story anyway, at least the main...

    DOTA 2

    The numbers are weird, but I think a lot of the "omg so much rubberbands" from casters and shit is due to actually seeing the numbers at the end of the fight rather than the new system. If the networth difference between 2 teams is huge though, you do get a fuckton of gold. Basically if your...

    Natural Doctrine

    Yeah I've heard some decent things about the game but I'm not too much into tactical RPGs so didn't bother. It looked pretty interesting though and I've heard the difficulty is crazy high at times.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    Once you unlock them, Red terminals are decently challenging while leveling. Not like super hard, though some heroes do suck at them, but at least there's a risk of dying. Everything else is garbage besides doing high waves of the group stuff but meh.

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    I guess I'll play Athena, she looks pretty nice with the melee stuff. Claptrap looks kinda like the support-y char and not a fan of the amount of random stuff on him but guess can be pretty hilarious at times. Not much interest in the other 2.

    Persona 5 - Coming to...

    P5 is coming out on PS4, this thread is old as shit, there's still Sean posts in it, he forgot to delete them, that's how old it is. They released an anime trailer during TGS and confirmed it's coming for both PS3 and PS4, by the end of next year(so probably solid 2016 out of japan).

    Solo FATEs go quite a bit faster when you have a combat chocobo with a few points in attack, though it takes a while to level it up and generally it's more something that will happen on alts and shit. If you're not clearing FATEs quickly, you can dump your 100 leves into stuff, it's pretty much...

    Well Ruin does shit damage because of all the dots and the pet doing damage. If it did good damage SMN damage would be retarded. It kinda sucks to see puny numbers I guess though, but SMN damage is very good especially for a ranged class with access to combat rez. Arguably the 2nd strongest DPS...

    Ninjas might be back only, though we don't really know yet. Monks have a lot of positional requirements for maximum dmg output but at the same time not being in the position doesn't affect your rotation so it's not that bad, Dragoon is fucking horrible because you HAVE to be on the side for the...

    That's what I meant, the live letter is generally a week before patch, so that ends up being october 28th since they announced they'll do the live letter during the fan fest thing. It's very unlikely they'll patch 2days after and possible they'll patch 2weeks after(so first week of november).

    DOTA 2

    They just patched again anyway, they already massively nerfed the gold gain thing. Xp is still the same, so you'll have good levels on supports and potential for comeback, but not nearly as much. * Kill Streak Bounty from 100->800 to 60->480 (6.81 values are 125->1000) * Reduced AoE Gold...

    Marauder/WAR is a ton more fun than PLD anyway. PLD is a fucking snoozefest, it's great for like leading a raid and calling shit cause the only shit you have to do is use cooldowns when you need to, rest is 1 2 3 and press 2 buttons when they're up. WAR has various mechanics built in like a...

    Well if you're still leveling it's not too complicated really, you just kinda follow the mainstory again, do sidequests, queue for dungeons when they open(most of them are gated via story anyway) and shit like that. Things you want to do to maximize leveling: - Above all, do your main...

    DOTA 2

    Not sure it works this way for gold. If you have one super farmed carry and the rest of the team is fairly poor, the team total networth isn't going to be much bigger, so the bonus gold from that aspect is gonna be negligible and the rest of the gold is lower than currently. It's only relevant...

    Some low level areas you'll see people doing FATEs with high levels for atma(relic weapon quest) and stuff, but in general yeah they're kinda empty. You'll still see a few people in every zone though.

    There is a detailed reddit post that sums up the patch notes since launch: (Patch Notes, Universal Summary) : ffxiv It's a lot of stuff, granted a lot is kinda obsolete so you run it once and don't do it again, but it's pretty nice to have so much stuff to do as a returning player. I've been...

    If you mean buying a horse from the asian side, you can buy one in mirage island with whatever currency it is now, or you can buy one from the NPCs that give the quest on the human side(obviously you have to go in enemy territory to do that, so it's a risky trip and you kinda need to know where...

    Bunch of classes get their last cross class skill at 34 actually, Quelling Strikes for archer, Blood for Blood for lancer, Mercy Stroke for Marauder, so yeah.

    Yeah I didn't until a few weeks ago but finally caved in and bought one to play Bravely Default and Etrian Odyssey IV/Untold and don't regret it. Need to grab a few more games but it's a really good console for old school stuff like that. I don't think they'll do a main line FF on real...

    Hmm I don't remember exactly, but pretty sure it was more like 15hours or so. Which is still short but it was a low budget game for a low price, so I didn't expect that much anyway and it was very enjoyable. I replayed the game once or twice too so that added value. I assume the 2nd one will...

    Legend of Grimrock 2

    Yeah it's a bit different than the last Might and Magic X that was released, combat felt a bit closer to a FPS of some sort, you could play it kinda actiony, where you attack then walk back before the enemy attack and keep repeating to kite them. Attacks are weird too in the sense they're based...

    There was this too: They also showed some Bravely Second gameplay as well as the old(well from last week) trailer. They showed a few new classes, one is a mage that combined element+form to create spells that do various things, for example Element+Mist makes it an aoe that does high damage...

    Perfectly valid item on Lina lategame with good farm. She can outcarry a lot of heroes just because of her retarded range and attackspeed, and she will 1vs1 almost every other carry in the game with an agh laguna. Only heroes that do well would be like PL(hard to target right one, if he's even...
