    Lost Ark Online

    Yes, shitty honing rates acting as an artificial block towards higher item level is such hard, difficult content This game will long term fail for the same reason every Korean p2w MMO long term fails in the West - eventually the shiny newness wears off and people realize it's just a nice...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Deviantart had been bleeding off good artists and photographers for a long time now, but it really started to go down the tubes when things like Patreon became a thing - a lot of artists went over there and started to post work and actually get paid. Prior to then, places like Flickr and...

    Furor's 14 Days rant & First Look at WoW

    You won't hear anything from Alex for a good long time. He has nothing to gain from it and it would just toss him back into the spotlight, refreshing his existence in the mind of the twitter brigade which has long since moved on to other targets.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Time trials are always a lazy means of increasing difficulty and all they do is force the meta for clearing into an incredibly narrow band of acceptable classes/specs. Since they rarely balance for this, it means you typically exclude a good part of your playerbase (either because of the class...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Pathfinder gives you a lot of flexibility, but holy fuck if you have very little familiarity with D&D, it is super overwhelming even at character creation

    TERA

    It had a few things going against it. SWTOR was at the time ultra hyped and that launched sometime after TERA. Then MoP came out. Besides its combat, TERA didnt really have much else going for it in terms of draw. People eventually got bored of it

    The Time Traveler's Wife

    I never read the book, just saw the movie when it came out like 13 years ago. The premise was interesting, how their experience of things was out of sync and there was sort of a paradoxical element to it. Like Clare met Henry before Henry met Clare in terms of their own timelines, but this...

    TERA

    TERA was probably my first introduction to the “action combat” MMO format, which felt pretty revolutionary at the time. I do agree on the generic feel of the lore and quests and stuff. Healing was also weird - I remember that class that would poop out orbs you had to run over to get healed...

    Sure they can. Just frame it as a "sins of our fathers" type deal. At least that is what they should do.

    Halo

    Episode was awesome. Except Kwan. God she is so fucking annoying "I need to lead the revolution!" with the entire revolution dead and no one giving a fuck about some little girl thinking she is Joan of Arc

    Ya, not sure how they explain that without it totally sounding suspect

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The article makes it sounds like they might focus more on post Warcraft 2 through Warcraft 3 era story. I mean you really only have 2 options if you introduce Thrall 1) Do his leadup to WC3 where he gets educated, learns to fight, and eventually rediscovers shamanism 2) Just jump right into...

    Gerrymandering should just flat out be banned. It’s bullshit that any political party can redraw district lines to give their party an advantage. Anyways, one thing to keep in mind is there are a lot of shades to the political spectrum. Massachusetts will elect Republican senators or...

    Picard S2 is better than S1, IMO. This episode was great because Seven called out Raffi for her gaslighting bullshit lol

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think everyone wanted a World of Starcraft, but they probably were puzzled on how to make something that wouldnt directly compete with WoW. About a couple years ago, I think they revealed that they had been working on a Battlefield-like game using the SC IP, but it got shuttered. Honestly if...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Why? It’s the perfect time to do it 1) Mostly ignored feature that only stays alive because of onions for chocobos and a few other older crafts 2) Removed a point of contention about housing and potentially let’s them expand apartment sizes in future (only outside only things are gardening and...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The whole thing had that canned corporate feel. A bunch of devs talking to each other like they don’t already know the information. They’re just so afraid of live interaction now that they have to resort to this canned show. Even if you go pre-recorded, it’s better to be conversational with...

    I kind of feel bad for that dev - the entire segment they just completely came across as they didn’t want to be in that video.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Island Sanctuary supposedly will have gardening. I wouldn’t be shocked if they completely remove gardening from houses and just push it over to Islands. They haven’t added any new gardening shit since Stormblood.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Eh it’s a double edged sword. Early WoW had a lot of pop culture references or meme stuff. A lot of that does age poorly - not that it is too “vulgar”, but you get some stuff that is less funny/clever or anachronistic. A beeper or VCR joke can be funny to older people, but younger people...

    Ya, Ion said something like "flying in a sense", so it will definitely be some manner of incremental grind to fully unlock normal flight. If I had to guess, they'll probably do something where as you progress through each of the 4 zones, you unlock some dragon training thingy that lets you...

    Didn't they slip some bullshit into their EULA in Starcaft2 or something where they basically had full ownership of any custom maps. Great way to encourage creativity - just say you'll get no profit from it in the future lol

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The side systems were more interesting than the core xpac reveal, although that is in part due to how vague it was in terms of story. We go to dragon isle and stuff will happen. Granted you can’t blow your story load right away, but you want a decent hook if you’re trying to get players to get...

    Communication in EQ1 was a side effect of its slow combat system - you spent more time waiting than fighting, and when you did fight, it typically required very little in the way of user inputs. Especially if you were a melee - auto attack and then maybe press some special attack button once...
