    New World

    End game in EQ1 really wasn't that vastly different than modern MMO end game when you boil down to what you actually did in most cases 1) With a few exceptions, most of the best loot was from raid-level encounters. If you were in a dungeon, it was either to get XP or maybe get something to...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I didn’t mind them, but I think it fundamentally comes down to story scope. Judy is more of a personal revenge story, Panam is more entwined with her nomad family and trying to help them survive

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I liked the modern Fallouts. Although I wouldn’t complain if they made a BG3 style Fallout game

    My understanding is Karlach was a relatively last minute addition to the game, which may be why she doesn’t get nearly the same level of content the others get. They basically just have her piggyback off of an encounter most players do anyways as her final bit (unless you count the choice she...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    That was me in BG3. "I better keep this random letter/item, some NPC is going to react to it later!"

    Ah. That actually makes more sense. I focused a lot on the balance thing, but the other bits seem to fit more with that.

    Finally beat the game after 115 hours - did a good play through. Ending option spoiler However, it took me 90 hours to realize I was nerfing my character by having a weapon on. I took my quarterstaff off and discovered my fists did like 3x the damage lol. Was a great game, will...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 launched with bugs, but not many that were absolutely game breaking. While I am sure this game will launch with plenty of bugs, I've rarely encountered game destroying stuff.

    I love how so much act 1 shit has an impact on act 3 stuff Also I got the demon romance scene

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3

    Over under on them replacing Warzone 2 with Warzone 3 and claiming it is a different engine and therefore you don't carry over your skins? lol

    Because when everyone praises something, the person who shits on it gets attention. Rage bait meta is strong right now On an unrelated note, in act 3 I saved some shop keeper and he gave me some good discount on cool transmog items. Gave Shadowheart some new threads

    I ran across a funny easter egg in act 3. There is a dude with a turned over cart of cabbages. If you're a monk and talk to him, he says he recognizes your type and they've done enough damage to his cabbage business in the past edit: screenshot lol

    Pretty big, although I would say streaming watching still skews towards binge watching, which can inflate numbers over the short term

    Pro tip: At some point in the game (prior to act 2), you can enter a chair in the mountain pass area to potentially cure the parasite. If you do...

    Not really - pretty much "feed to Gale" trash. All the good loot is in the room you can access after you beat her.

    Wasn't there 2 musical episodes? The one with the enslaved fae was pretty good.

    Common in that area of the country. Every now and again a city will pony up the money to bury lines on a few streets, but more often than not it’s all above ground shit

    Ive been watching Strippin play a drow gloom/assassin with dual wielding crossbows during his play through on Twitch and it puts out disgusting damage and crits like a machine at times. Like this one tough NPC with like 200 Hp showed up and he deleted it in a single turn and this was still in...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    That is a vast oversimplification. Yes, you have to make the choice to quit doing drugs ultimately, but it isn’t a light switch. You’re basically saying “I am choosing to subject myself to severe pain and a compromised mental state to work towards quitting drugs” depending on your dependence...

    If you're at the stage of being able to pull of interstellar travel, then you're at the stage to exploit resources in your own solar system outside Earth. That would take an extremely long period of time. Sure, technology could advance to make that deplete faster, but even that type of...

    Biggest tip I can give for that fight: turn off group movement and put everyone on raised platforms before turning the lava wheel lol

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I fucked up that scene even more. Not only did one of the characters perma another, but I failed another quest because apparently waiting too long to rescue that one npc in the cave in results in them dying if you long rest a couple times after getting the quest

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    It probably has less to do with essential oils than what the person associated the smell with. Oils are probably just an easier way to disperse the smells Like if they used rose oil and as a kid your grandparents had roses in their garden, your brain starts making connections because of the...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I mean it makes sense on some level. Humans very strongly associate smells or tastes with specific memories or experiences. Even if you can’t recall the specific experience or memory, you still recognize it as having been previously experienced, so your brain is working to make those...

    50 years is impressive, but still a far cry from centuries or millennia. The power source on the probes are suspected to fail by the end of the decade or so and they’ve had to sacrifice many probe functions to keep other ones running Not saying it is impossible, but a much more difficult...

    Found an awesome monk amulet hidden in a tiny chest near the Adamantine Forge area on a tiny island surrounded by lava and fire elementals. It’s a cursed item that will make you laugh if you fail a save, but monks get an EZ roll against it. The amulet is sentient and has an ability to restore...

    I've collected 4 parasite jars thus far, but I haven't used any of them and I've also rejected the parasites that were in dead bodies (the parasite runs away if you reject). Afraid I'll get a "bad ending" if I go hard with the parasites.

    By that, you can logically infer that no species do that, or no species do that anywhere near Earth and have yet to expand far enough to be detected by Earth Life expanding outward in the universe is just a scaled up example of life expanding in ecosystems. Life typically only expands out into...

    Assuming FTL can never be cracked, then interstellar travel would have limited uses 1) Something happens to our solar system that requires evacuation (such as a rogue Star or super giant planet or blackhole will pass through and fuck up everything) 2) people want to make their own...
