    Houses have a timer - if the owner of the house doesnt enter it for 45 days, it demolishes and the plot frees up. If it demolishes, you get a partial refund of the plot purchase price and all your furniture ends up on the housing salvager. However, that stuff in turn only stays on the NPC for...

    If you get max ilevel items for the end of this xpac, they will probably carry you into mid or late 80s next xpac if they follow the same pattern as previous expansions. They arent replaced by greens off trash instantly like some other MMOs.

    The GM of our guild was probably the best equipped mage on the server. He summoned his epic pet, then it instapoofed because of some odd druid thorns interaction or something, then he got owned by the other mage.

    Loki

    He Who Remains wasn’t the baddest Kang, just the one who discovered a WMD and wiped out everyone with it. Also, anyone get Slyvie=Thor parallels? Thor chops off Thanos head without thinking, Sylvie kills variant Kang without thinking. Both actions result in worse shit happening

    Ya my first FF was FF1 and that isn’t my fav lol. I tried it for the first time at the Nintendo world championships. I almost made it to the stage, but I didn’t own rad racer and my lap time sucked and missed the qualifying score by a smidge. My fav is FF6, which was the 3rd afF game I played

    probably right about Ravonna, plus it lets her more closely match the comic Ravonna if Kang hooks up with her

    Solid finale I thought. Good way to introduce Kang, yet not Kang.

    Apex Legends new free to play battle royale game from Respawn

    Competitive FPS feels like a time limited thing - you only have a very limited time with "legit" competition because cheaters eventually crack the thing open and every no-skill shitter who wants to be Shroud buys some scripts or programs to let them dunk on an entire lobby.

    But that is literally how it works. They even mentioned examples of variants being people who were late to work. Even minor acts, if they result in a branching timeline, get you pruned. Slyvie playing with toys and pretending to protect the realm is not much unto itself, but if that starts...

    Wouldn't the coolant being liquid hydrogen unto itself be an issue, though, with the extreme cryogenic requirements? In other words, it would have to be topped off after a long journey?

    Loki

    Loki being a female, male, alligator, or robot doesn't matter. What matters if it there are significant changes to what they do and how that impacts the timeline. Kid Loki killed Thor and got nabbed Old Loki only got nabbed when he decided to revisit family vs. still pretending to be dead...

    The chip supply shortages have hit everyone. I recall reading that they are working very hard to try to get extra server capacity in place, but they aren't even sure if it will be ready by 6.0.

    The next big revolution is already happening: reduction in costs to bring payloads to space. Everything else will springboard off that. It's the same as with railroads and air travel - once you figure out the costs of infrastructure and platform, and get those to reasonable levels, then it...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Some uncomfortable meetings and quick turn around action plans would be my guess. If subs nosedive, that is when you would probably see mixups in leadership. Bad optics won’t matter to Activision unless it translates into dollars

    While weightlessness is a cool perk, that isn't the sole reason (otherwise vomit comet would be a more affordable alternative). At that price, it's basically for bragging rights to say "I technically went into space". It is also more "affordable" for a larger segment of the population. The...

    Sylvannis 100% isn't going back to being a horde leader. They've already introduced a replacement Forsaken leader. They'll just do an Illidan and she will be trapped in a "redemption prison" forever - or until they decide to dust her off and use her character again later

    Well of course, that's obvious. I never said BO or Virgin were any current competition in actual orbital space.

    No, I mean the platforms Virgin and BO are using for tourism stuff are specifically made for that purpose (sub-orbital tourism).

    Not a ton of new info. The benchmark seems to show off some of the new abilities and outfits (Zenos uses the Reaper LB3 at the end it looks like). Benchmark comes out Sunday - like previous ones, you can mess around with character creator and save the character templates if you want to use...

    When they make them like WHM, they're talking about the healer split in terms of shields vs. heals I believe. Sage and Scholar will be more shields, Astrologians and White Mages more heals.

    Anytime you get a “series of long cut scenes” pop up, to be safe make sure you give yourself at least 40+ minutes ARR was extra long, but other xpacs are long as well

    Twitch also tends to be pretty trend heavy. Wow shitting itself + WoW fans slowly trying out the game and hyping it up has a snowball effect. Once you hit a major streamer, like Asmon, then it really busts out. Even Shroud was asking Asmon about the game.

    SpaceX isn’t banking on tourism for profits, though, to the same degree BO and Virgin are currently. The vehicles Bezos and Branson are going up on are specifically made with tourism in mind. SpaceX just adds some modular stuff to existing platforms. Like the flight in Sept, they will put a...

    Yup, he was another. Also Theramore being bombed (which killed Rhonin) also involved that blue dragon dude that was maybe or maybe not romantically involved with Jaina. He just shows up one day in the game but virtually all his backstory was books/manga.
  36. Cybsled

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Right. It’s fine to have novels, but like take WOTLK. Rhonin shows up. Book readers know who he is, players wouldn’t. Then he was killed in a book, not in the game. It’s stuff like that which disconnects players from the story, because the story itself is disconnected across media types

    That doesn’t work without a lot more story development. Unsanctioned attack means alliance denies responsibility and horde blames alliance.

    Denying units is one element but also 1) Abilities in dota are more impactful and aren’t spammed in most cases 2) items in dota aren’t just stat sticks - they can add completely new abilities and change the way a hero plays 3) there isn’t as forced a meta as lol in dota 4) comebacks are more...
