Lack of swimming in new world feels like it had more to do with restrictions on where people could go For example, a lot of the faction PvP missions funnel you through choke points that could be completely bypassed if you could go swimming

Nature is healing

Most of those movies/shows also work with the presumption of degradation of the DNA in each successive copy due to how they source the DNA sample. For example, rather than use the same "master" sample for every single clone, lots of these productions seem to imply that the next clone batch...

This is also the correct take. Instead of the "lol join or die" approach, tossing out a bunch of exclusive goodies through an optional program would have probably worked in attracting a semi-decent sized group of people.

The door was opened almost 50 years ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bear_(novel)

Just noticed something on rewatch that makes me question the timeline Lucy mentions the "great plague of 77" as the event that led to her mother dying. The show takes place in 2296, so a 19 year gap. Lucy has faint memories of her mother but not being in the wasteland, so we can presume she...

Rough. I feel bad for the devs having to suffer for Sony being fucking idiots

If you try to strongly force Asterion to stop Ascending, he will leave your party. It has to be his own choice ultimately...not too different than the Shadowheart choice with the spear. If you push him too far either way, he will go full evil or peace out and break the scepter to spite you...

What will really happen: Someone else is going to finish the books, like Dune kept going after Frank Herbert died

This is the sad truth The Totally Spies reboot is probably going to suck because it will end up just being dudes tied up

Sony just wants your data to sell and to send you unwanted marketing bullshit They're wrapping it in some "safety" excuse, which is hilarious considering how often they've had data breaches on PSN

I tried to go back a year ago or so and was lost. All my companions were missing, they 100% redid all the abilities and talents, and I couldn’t even remember how to leave the space station lol

The country limited thing seems like the bigger issue considering the global reach of Steam Sony isn’t going to say “use false data to make an account”, so they need an official stance other than “sorry guess ur fuct”

Game is getting review bombed on steam now

Yup. It's pretty much completely optional in both games. Without base building I probably wouldnt have put nearly as much hours into both titles

All the pre-Bethesda Fallouts are pretty dated at this point (1,2,Tactics). If you don't mind low res janky UI games and can power through it, they're solid. Just difficult (both the game itself and getting past the dated feel) Fallout 3 and NV are very similar - NV has a better overall...

Depends 1) If you try to go to underwater prison, Gortash makes you an enemy 2) If you kill murder lady without making a deal, I think Gortash makes you an enemy too? 3) if you make a Gortash deal and follow through, Karlach abandons you He eventually ends up in his apartment in all the...

I think the show played a role One issue I always encountered with creative writing is you always have some good parts really fleshed out in your head and then you have to write all the other stuff to get there and connect it all. It’s the connective tissue where you get bogged down…you can’t...

The best part of act 3 is talking to the cabbage seller if you’re a monk lol

He actually has a conundrum 1) The show revealed how he originally planned the story to go 2) He realized people didn’t like all of it, so now he has to think of new shit while not shitting on everything he wrote before No one is going to be happy when it comes out.

Typical Gavinmad escalation post 1) “this group wants to harm me! They’re violent!!” followed by 2) “btw you should die”

Seemed like the show primarily served as a capstone for the end of the pre-Empire clone stuff storylines/the Kamonians and a better explanation on why Project Necromancer is seemingly less advanced that prior clone tech we see in the prequels

Shadowheart seems open for most stuff so long as she is the alpha You fuck a demon and she is like “at least the adventurer knows how much better I am than you now that they’ve sampled inferior goods”

AoC strikes me as the bastard child of Archeage and Shadowbane - I’m still convinced that unless he softens the “play to crush” gameplay design, people are going to quit the game in droves after the first month or so

Whatever they did with this patch is making the game run like dogshit on a lot of PCs. I used to get 60+ FPS even during mass swarms - now I am getting like 15-20 FPS just standing on the bridge of my super destroyer. I've barely played as a result.

The city building is impressive at the very least

It’s probably the sentry you can build in your base Fallout 76 - doesn’t acquire targets, doesn’t kill anything, and super mutants with pipe pistols destroy it

Mega guild at least in the sense they were killing all the cities and no one was able to stop them anyways They did use bullshit like banes at 3am though If we can thank the devs for one thing, it is that they demonstrated “play to crush” MMOs are guaranteed to become failed ghost towns

On the flipside, Fallout saw far more popularity once it moved to 3D. Most RPGs in the late 90s/early 2000s were pretty much the isometric design - stuff like Morrowind really popularized the FPS-style of open world RPG and it also translated much better to consoles. While a Baldur's Gate 3...

Fallout 4 was ok for what it was. I think the biggest downside was the lack of nuance in the endings. You wipe out institute/BoS/Railroad

Lords of Death or something was the “mega guild”. They had their city on that ice island - the attack that killed their city had like 500+ people and was a slideshow / sb.exe fest I forgot the other city guild names. My company was called “Eleven” and we were mostly just former EQ1...

Tried the crossbow changes - “slightly reduced” aoe is a lie. It can’t clear tiny bugs or bots like it used to and you effectively need a direct hit to kill anything. Even using it in close quarters isn’t as big a risk anymore because of the nerf

Not sure why they nerfed the crossbow - AOE for the explosions is now like half of what it was and they reduced the ammo count. Almost no one was using it to begin with.

Mariko living or dying would have worked in Toranaga's favor 1) Mariko leaves no problem - Ishido loses all his hostages and the other lords abandon him 2) Mariko dies - Ochiba abandons Ishido, which causes the other lords to abandon him

What makes these games is the initial novelty and the friends we make - you can never replicate that original feeling because the factors that created that cannot be replicated

Tauren Mill in closed beta was pretty funny. Mages used to be able to channel pyroblast while invis and the invis wouldn't break until the cast completed. So mages would basically just setup on the fringes and 1 shot squishy people and then reinvis. Most of them had no idea warlocks could...

Yup. On our server Death it basically went 1) first couple weeks people build cities 2) mega guild kills a major city, people from killed city join other city 3) mega guild kills 2nd major city 4) literally the entire server teams up and kills mega guild city 5) server dies because almost...

Asmon's slaves made a pretty impressive city

The problem with true sandbox games is the only content of note is what other players contribute to the server. Once you get past the initial "build a city" part, then people start looking to destroy other cities and it becomes pretty easy to end up in a "mega town kills the server" situation...
