    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    When they show Melisandre watching Stannis prepare for a battle, then show Jon getting shanked and then show Melisandre appear all of a sudden you'll run in here with how impossible it was and how much disbelief you have in the show now. They may, however, try to play on the battle of the...

    Witcher 3

    I really don't trust CD Projekt's ability to tune combat to do a first playthrough on the hardest difficulty (assuming it's ridiculous). Tecknoe, if you can't afford to buy this game then go get another job. This isn't the kind of game you pirate!

    Bootstrappers guide to being successful.

    I agree in some cases. If someone's career doesn't have them doing interesting work, they have extra time and they don't do side projects then they probably don't have a passion for it. I used to do a lot of side projects before I got to where I am now. But now if I do any development outside...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Melisandre can teleport from winterfell to castle black anytime she wants. Your complaint is baseless. The only reason Jon doesnt' get a 96% rez is if George wants to go against his foreshadowing.

    pretty much. I get a pretty finely distilled source of info for gaming in general and MMOs in detail from here.

    I'm worried less about the focus of time making player tools for the EK and more worried that they won't stick to their vision of campaigns being the meat of the game. Even now you see all the MMO fans focusing on the EK and ACE needs to stick to their guns.
  12. Tuco

    Crowfall

    I hope that's not the direction. I want the campaigns to stand alone as much as possible and the EKs just be a loose-connection between iterative campaigns. The more tightly integrated the EK is in the campaign the more each campaigns feels less like an MMO that resets and more like a lobby...

    Witcher 3

    I haven't played w3 yet, but if it's anything like w2 there's no need to play w1 unless you enjoy it. The backstory and library of characters in Witcher isn't massive like Bioware games where Mass Effect 3 was just a sequence of visiting previously introduced characters and stories.

    I don't know if you're making a play on words because we're talking about ore if your phone's autocorrect is acting up again. They have to have a gold sink within the campaigns though. This can't be some GTA "earn as much gold as possible in these three months" strategy. Otherwise you'll have...

    Crowfall

    Sounds good. Is pretty much in line with what I was hoping for (players mining ore, turning it into coin, having it be a droppable resource). The two big questions I have is how much ore/gold can someone carry at a time, and how effective are their gold sinks going to be. I'm guessing the...

    I'm guessing raid vs raid duels is for intra-faction fights? Too bad about player factions being removed. A lot of people in PRX were looking forward to player factions. I wasn't sure if we'd do it but it was definitely an option. That list doesn't seem to justify the 2.0 number though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    King's Landing is probably NYC of Westeros (A District of Columbia doesn't make sense because there's not a real federal government). Oldtown is hmm.... a big city with the best university. Maybe Los Angeles or Cambridge? The Hightowers are the lords of Oldtown. Mace Tyrel's wife is a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Oldtown is one of the bastions of power in the Reach. It's really no less seen than say, Lannisport/Casterly Rock. I think they'll investigate it more when/if Sam goes there. And now show stannis is getting a taste of what book stannis was. Book stannis was even more concerned with the...

    Witcher 3

    That's another cool thing about Dark Souls. If everything is easy you'll cut through, one shot bosses and get outleveled quickly. If everything is hard you'll get wrekt over and over, and continuously level on the mobs on the way to a hard point and get stronger. Usually at some point you piece...

    Also I think Samwise is going to Old Town and I can't wait. I enjoyed the build up chapters for him and you know he's going to figure all this magic bullshit out and roll up with an obsidian shooting gun or something.

    Would crack me up if this happened. It's so Ramsay too. But I think they'll put some plot armor on Sansa and make Ramsay be blind to her. He's obviously trying to change to be a good lordling.

    Won't be much drama from AA, the game is too carebear. Even if my worst enemy were to kick my dog, drink my beer and log on there's not much I can do to hurt him unless he gets a pack on his back and exposes himself in a daring way. And Raes isn't even an enemy. Just a guy on the forums who...

    Witcher 3

    After DAI I'm dubious of completion numbers. DAI was so full of fluff and people loved it like they've never played an MMO before and it was new to them. Meanwhile I felt like there was 50 hours of content stretched to 100 hours of game.

    If you don't like it by the tentacle monster I'd say no, it won't pick up for you. Witcher 3 may also be boring too unless you like sandbox games a lot.

    Yeah. We also teamed up with the General Assembly to take down TWO. Temporary truces made with enemies to take down larger enemies is similar to permanent friendships with enemies, but not the same.

    Anyone use a GTX980 for GTAV? What are you settings and what kind of FPS do you get? I feel like mouse look is shit unless I'm at a solid 60FPS, so I'm running at like, GTA4 quality settings.
