    New World

    To be fair, most of what still plays the game is the "core" PVP audience. PVP isn't as big a lure as people think, especially when people lose. A lot of the stuff they unveiled, like trying to eliminate shell companies/etc, is trying to retain that core audience while at the same time, trying...

    Those rune abilities all seem to have one thing in common: they really punish clumping. I’m curious how that will impact point control in wars. Timing your rune abilities will be just as important as grav well + aoeing clumps

    Yup. I’ve been in wars that felt like pugs because of lack of good shot calling or communication. If you have a good group of people who listen and a shot caller(s) who commands respect, the difference is like night and day

    Ya our company was the same. We held 3 lands, but sold one so we didn’t get non stop wars and get burnout. We have lost some great shot callers over the months due to burnout and good shot callers are a must in wars. The shell change won’t mean much unless they implement some type of grace...

    My Son Hunter

    If you're looking at salary for just the actual acting, maybe? But you also lose out on being part of that Disney "ecosystem", where you have all the talk shows and cameos in other shows and what have you. That stuff probably adds up quick and losing access to that is no doubt a financial loss.

    If you call doing the conservative version of a Lifetime film "bouncing back", sure I guess so?

    Ashes of Creation

    He is probably copying Archeage for a lot of it I assume. In that game, you had zones where PVP was enabled and the transition points between zones were most commonly very narrow and/or mountainous. So if he is talking about bottleneck points, I presume they will be similar. Which honestly...

    Ashes of Creation

    Even PVPers who want "Good fights" usually define that as "I win more than half of the time". You can see this in New World: Some company controls a server until some mega guild comes to the server and starts grabbing territories from the prior top company. The former top company tries to...

    If a government is weakened, then in turn that just increases the relative power of other entities, like corporations. That's like saying you should scale back the police so they can only investigate murders and that will in turn make the police better at stopping crime.

    Hopefully they change their plans for how PvP works, but I have yet to see a criminal/karma system in any PvP game where gankers don't figure out loopholes within the first few days of the game to circumvent it. Archeage had one, but they also had cash shop potions you could chug to remove bad...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I wouldn't be have surprised if it ends up just being some shitty fetch quest or whatever. I have yet to see an "exclusive quest" that rose to anything above what some low level intern probably slapped together over a weekend.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    MMOs are fine for storytelling. The quality depends on the storyteller. Wow's problem is it blew it's character and lore load early on due to it's NON story focus. FFXIV had a fricking 10 year build up to the resolution of the main story arc. Characters came and went, some lingered for...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Does the potion have some p2w aspect to it, like double damage or whatever? Or is it just some dumb cosmetic thing? Not the first game I've ever seen with a pre-order to deluxe edition bonus question. Pretty sure Cyberpunk had something similar, but it was just some fluff quest

    Ashes of Creation

    Pretty much. Archeage usually put things worth a lot in the PVP waters or the vastly more efficient route (ocean fishing, trade runs). I also do recall a few coastal areas that got super narrow and could be blocked, forcing you to turn back or risk PVP water. Given that he is using Archeage...

    on that note, I wonder what accents they will end up using (if any) when we travel to the New World It would be kind of funny if they ended up just using Americans

    The only thing they confirmed in the live letters is the plot of the next xpac won't really be apparent until the 6.5 and 6.5x patch series and to expect smaller scope stories for now that might only be for an expansion or two in length.

    Based on the controls, looks like this brand of Electric Mower. Not familiar with this brand, though. The Ego electric mowers are really good. Having a mower than starts with a button press instead of trying to get an old gas mower to turn over is pretty nice, plus you don't smell like...

    The fact they were back at camp says to me they were the least capable people or they were just there to process the hides/skins, not to hunt. An expedition of that size needs logistical support

    Siractionslacks made some good lore videos to explain the ancients, but you basically have Dire (red) and Radiant (blue). They are aspects of the same primordial mind. Basically think some cosmic brain akin to a god. At some point in the past, they were split apart and are at opposition of...

    After finishing MSQ, I had a thought on the identity of the guy in armor and I think the whole 13th is a red herring on the theme of the next expansion.

    Only problem is if pvp is forced, you’re going to have the same issue all these games have: some dudes from Asia or Europe raid your base at 4am/while you are at work and you lose all your shit

    Marines like Greek Eggs and Ham. They will eat them off a boat, they will eat them on the float. They will eat them in a town, causing the locals to give a confused frown. Marines will eat Greek eggs and ham, thank you, Uncle Sam-I-Am

    It was always low. Capturing the First Light fort guarantees an automatic 10% increase in refinement yields. So if you refine at least 10 of something, you're guaranteed 1 bonus

    Invoker had a smile when we last saw him and he always has plans inside plans, so I suspect he did something. Given that the disease appears cured and that was always the failure factor, that can’t be a coincidence

    Yes. They removed the old refining materials from the loot pool and made the new green stuff as powerful as the old blue stuff

    They made it a little less painful. For refinement mats, everything is basically the highest tier by default. So when you refine iron into steel, you basically get double the amount They also increased node spawn times and added new nodes for the higher tier materials, like starmetal and...
