    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Reaper has a feature where they become an avatar for a void creature, so I assume that will be their resource meter ability. Otherwise just melee attacks. They didn’t dive too deep and they also didn’t preview other new class abilities, so I assume that is all still being worked on

    I presume it started off with Sheldon interpreting everything and their shared experience. Which makes sense - killing or not working together would have caused them to fail.

    I tried going on their site last night. It queued me like 7k deep, then none of the products would even load. I checked hours later and the actual CE game stuff was gone.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I do agree on PVP. It is pretty shitty in FF14, which is part of the reason it is dead. Only time you see people doing it is when there is some event that you can get currency from, like the last moogle tome event.

    Ya, XP potions and the like is Korean/Chinese MMO cash grab gatcha game shit. I know MMOs have level boosts, but they tend to be later in the game's life cycle and serve mostly as catch-up mechanics. Offering the same stuff on day 1 would basically make people suspect XP gains are...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Observations I made: 1) Zenos' tower has the Tower of Zot music from FF4 2) There was one scene where they showed a dungeon that had 4 seasons/biomes...the floating crystal things looked like the ones from the Ascian city ruins dungeon (Amythis Ryder or whatever...the one where Bismark gives...

    FFXIV combat does change a lot as you level. How a class plays at 30 vs 70 can be completely different, both in terms of abilities, gcd weaving, and resource management

    Walter in the show is pretty sympathetic until the final scene, at which point that if you realize if he is ok with doing that, then he would be ok with doing all sorts of reprehensible shit

    Castlevania

    Good finale. The final final scene wasn't expected at all. But they left the show in a good spot to allow for the spin-offs they mentioned. Presumably they will leap forward in time and focus on other Belmonts.

    I did to, until a failed insurrection against lawfully elected president just resulted in the impacted party doubling down and looking for more ways to subvert democracy and yet they are still allowed to keep their positions

    Jupiter's Legacy

    The show does address it. George fallout was supposedly over the code, the brother thinks the code is shit, all the kids think it is shit and ones who don’t die. Utopian is so afraid of power corrupting Supes that he basically would rather do nothing of consequence if it means taking a stance...

    Battlefield 2042

    Not all BF3 private servers handled hackers well. I remember joining one and the admin threatened to ban people complaining about non existent hackers, as a dude on the enemy team killed us in spawn with a machine gun from across the map and through 30 buildings. He was either in on it, or a...

    Jupiter's Legacy

    Right, the Boy Scout code is supposed to feel frustrating. It’s clear there is, and have been, massive divisions about it in the past. Like when the brother mentions they could have ended WW2 in minutes and saved millions of lives from death camps, then Utopia is so afraid of slippery slope...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I do like how FFXIV does that. As you progress through the game, it teaches you what all the symbols mean. It starts basic with simple concepts like spread apart, stack up. Then it goes to other more complex types.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Silent Age films sucked, besides the comedies. Because slapstick is timeless.

    Ashes of Creation

    Twitch MMOs would be more in the vein of something like BDO or TERA - action combat that requires far too many hot key presses and is virtually impossible to be a "clicker" in it. I never liked BDO much because combat felt like you had to be constantly moving and activating 20+ hotkeys at the...

    Ashes of Creation

    Right, it always gets back to the "everyone wants to be the wolf, not the sheep". Once most of the playerbase realizes they will always be the sheep, they will stop playing.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    The TNG thing had nothing to do with balance, it had to do with "how do we convey this given the restrictions placed upon us?". Usually the restrictions were coming from executives or the studios bank rolling the whole thing, not the writing staff. Like Original Star Trek. The scene where...

    PvP MMO players tend to be the most transient MMO Playerbase. The dopamine hits for PvP and PvE are different.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    I think what you’re experiencing is quality of writing issues. “SJW” stuff has existed for decades. Beyond just being hyper sensitive to it now, some writers have a tough time balancing message with story. Good writers make the message part of the story, bad writers try to make the story part...

    probably, it’s been like 20 years. One of those dungeons took forever to get to and was always 100% abandoned

    New World

    Maybe I’m thinking chardock. But point is you usually had to preform, travel all the way there, then hope everyone stayed. If one person had to drop, you were fucked because it was in the boonies and PUG was non-existent for the most part

    Right, but then the meta becomes “easy to get to dungeon” is the big one. Shit like Diremaul in WoW or City of Mist in EQwere ghost towns because it was such a pain in the ass to get to them.

    To each their own. Running somewhere is fine the first dozen times. By 100, you fucking hate it and want the run to die

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Blizzard took the feedback poorly and reduced abilities overall years ago. Shit that you can click and use every now and again is fine (like eye of kilrogg). People just get salty about in combat abilities that are frequently used.

    Jupiter's Legacy

    Goatface might be right. They mention minor and major for Supes, so I assume the 6 and their offspring are majors and sailor offspring would be the lesser powered ones perhaps. Although that would be kind of hilarious if all minor/lesser power Supes were the results of port of call brothels or...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Ya, seems like legitimate conclusion that the separation of Jeff and Blizzard probably wasn't 100% mutual. I do agree that Activision will continue to assimilate Blizzard. Blizzard as a name will continue to exist so long as the brand name remains profitable.

    Regarding Apex, Shroud just said they brought him in to look at an early build and get gave some input. Sounds like a pseudo guest consultant

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I would strongly suspect this is very true. You go from "what's fun?" to "what does the algorithm say is most profitable for ROI?". The 2nd only works for so long before players begin to see through it and walk away.

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Literally, it's basically the neurotoxin from botulism. One of the issues is with repeated usage in the same area, it fucks up your natural tissues/muscles and ends up accelerating the aging appearance of the person. Also when people use those fillers and the rest of their body shrinks back...

    Superman was always the same. I always liked that scene in Man of Steel where he allows himself to be handcuffed as a symbolic gesture, even though they had virtually no power to actually enforce his captivity.

    Maybe they could pull a MK:Annihilation and kill him off in the first 10 minutes, like they did to Johnny Cage

    I’m sure he will kill lots, but it will just be bloodless and camera angles hiding the gore
