    The Book of Boba Fett

    I do wonder if they'll even mention that - I doubt they'll mention Omega specifically and just stick to generic clone talk.

    Lost Ark Online

    Level skips are catchup mechanics, but it is typically done once. I have a bigger issue with pay mechanics that want you to pony up the cash constantly

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    I doubt it- they will keep Hammil Luke and just use him sparingly.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    In terms of timeline, we’re almost 18 - 20 years prior to when Kylo kills all the students. That gives them a lot of wiggle room to play around in and sidestep the matter

    Lost Ark Online

    The hate this attempt to split p2w / pay to convenience, like they are different. At their heart it’s the same fucking thing: designing the game so players get frustrated and swipe their card to bypass the artificial problem they happen to sell a solution for

    Sprouts usually get commended if they mention it is first time running content

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Killing off Cad Bane next episode I dont think will happen. They'll probably keep him in reserve as a possible villain in Mando S3 or Ashoka.

    So his answer is: made in Japan = weeb Which is the real reason most people say “weeb” it seems when they refuse to give concrete examples. It’s like old people who say comics are for kids and have no fucking clue there is shit beyond Archie and Superman

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They can’t bring up examples, because then they’ll be forced to admit every western rpg is “weeb” as well “Omg, dungeons and dragons and Everquest has monks in it. Fucking weeb shit, I’m not playing that game “

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    Wildstar had some good housing systems. Unfortunately it didnt have enough other hooks to keep people playing.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Side note, FF14 used to have more skills at lower levels, but over the past couple expansions (especially around Stormblood) they went back and did some serious ability pruning. WoW has done the same - they'll go back and cull abilities, which used to leave you with skill gaps until they did...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Your powerlevel really steamrolls once you get late game, which makes normal mode a joke to be sure.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    Ignoring FFXIV, player housing is a proven means of retaining people in a game, be in FF14, or TESO/Fallout76, or whatever. You just need to be to robust enough that the player feels like they can be creative, if that is their goal. Overly restrictive housing systems like SWTOR are less...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Most of the classes don't start to get their resource spender OCD abilities until around 60 of so which greatly increase your pool of OCD stuff, so prior to that the skill rotations can feel kind of slow. If you're in a simple tank n' spank fight that is - once they start making you actually...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I mean, they kind of hint at it. Din isn't going to be a Mandalorian and Jedi, but Grogu would have the potential. It would also help explain away why Grogu is MIA in the new Trilogy - he is busy on Mandalore.

    The Orville

    The extra title they gave it is odd - like is it a soft reboot? The intro kind of gave me some DS9 pilot vibes

    Weather

    Ya, basically turns a wide area in Silent Hill. There is a notorious highway section near us that always has accidents when this type of fog settles in because of all the on and off ramps and turns in the road

    Moonfall (2022)

    How the movie pitch went down Studio: Roland, I hear you have a new movie idea? *Roland pauses his game of Mass Effect 3 and Final Fantasy 4, and takes a rip from a bong* Roland: ya man, like the movie is about the moon getting close to Earth suddenly and we get some disaster porn. But like...

    Even if you want a "pure" play through, get the cosmetic mods, like clothing and hairstyles and the like. The base ones kind of suck lol

    Wait, that shitty BDO mechanic is here too? Noooooo

    Not only that, but cosmetics you barely see outside cutscenes because you are zoomed out like a damned spy satellite in actual gameplay

    New World

    I am not saying it can’t change, but it’s going to come down to who he really wants to target. If he goes with “play to crush”, then success wise the game is going to flop long term like Shadowbane or New World: Strong showing for a month, but then a massive drop off when people realize they...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I feel like the choice is a test - he cares less about the choice options he provided, but more about what drives Grogu to make a choice based on those options I mean we know he is probably going to end up with Mando regardless, and I suspect he will help Mando better use the dark saber, which...

    New World

    It isn’t hate, it’s the fact some of the core mechanics they have released thus far have a proven track record of driving players away - the biggest standouts are forced pvp + dropping loot on death, and losing a large amount of time and resources if your town gets destroyed in a war in addition...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    That is why Filoni has been good for the franchise - he is able to both simultaneously satisfy OG fans and the "newer" fans that grew up with the prequels and cartoons (with him being responsible for the cartoons that enhanced the prequels). The sequel trilogy failed to really generate any...

    He does recognize the dangers. Think back to ROTJ. At the end they exploit his attachment to give into anger

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Vanth knew the danger, but he got forced into it because he saw his deputy getting ready to pull his gun (notice he keeps looking to his side, trying to gauge what his deputy is about to do). Cad seemed to shoulder shot him then unloaded into the deputy. Cad is too good a shot, maiming seems...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    God that episode was fucking good. I suspect they are going to leave the choice at the end of the episode for season 3 of Mando I like how the marshal knew they were fucked when the deputy started getting jumpy - he seemed to know who he was dealing with

    What feature(s) or circumstance would persuade you to install a brain implant?

    That became a plot point in Ghost in the Shell. Like that one guy they turned into an assassin and had manufactured a life in his memories, then he finds out they were never real and he breaks down. That sort of shit would be scary, but only possible if we cracked the ability to form memories...

    Maybe - if they actually gave a fuck about the Castlevania brand lol

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    I think he mentioned that through OTK he gets group medical as well, so that no doubt helps in cutting costs down as well. A lot of streamers, since they are independent contractors, get no benefits and good luck finding an individual medical plan that doesn’t have ass benefits that is...

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    He came from a poor background and seems to have an understanding of what is needed to avoid that. He even admits he doesn’t spend much because of the fear of falling back into poverty. His dad/dad’s side of the family is well off from what he tells. I’m sure he has been given decent advice...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Except pvp is a tiny subset of your customer base, and their own lore has us teaming up constantly to fight big bad. War != pvp

    New World

    Even though they hid the player numbers, you can just take a look at the town ledgers and invasion/war rosters to know population is starting to crater again. A couple weeks ago, purple on our server could easily field 2 war rosters to fight wars at the same time and be successful. Fast...

    New World

    I would say that up to at least GS600, there are benefits. Legendary GS600+ can roll with an extra perk on them, which is nice. Post 600, the diminishing returns are real.

    New World

    Speaking of New World, this new roster bug introduced with the patch fucking sucks. Always getting lag detected, says you arent signed up for a war/invasion but you are, then it bugs out and doesnt fill a roster so your invasion is down like 10-15 people

    The Book of Boba Fett

    In the EU, I think they explained that the Sarlacc would absorb the minds of the beings it consumed and their bodies would get fused into the flesh of the Sarlacc.

    2022 NFL Offseason Thread: Looking forward Tua better future!

    He always said he planned to retire when he felt like he sucked. While he was still better than most QB in the league, I wouldn't be surprised if he looked at his current performance, his injuries, and the sloppy end of the season in Tampa Bay and decided to call it quits. I won't be surprised...
