I played the pen & paper RPG back in the day and it was always lots of fun with campy period 1920s goofiness along with an undercurrent of unspeakable evil. Especially fun as you skirted the edge of insanity with their sanity system as an alternative 'mental health point' system.

Ugh... got an upgrade Azurite piece which has relatively 'meh' traits and thus forced me to respec my other pieces. Thank goodness I've been hoarding my Azurite sidegrades.

Even with that they don't hold a candle to bards for AE destruction though. Bard can do AE True damage on round one and every round thereafter, just need a basic hit to trigger the Falkentynes chain. Yes Spectre Touch and Mangar's Mallet are big hits, but thats two out of 4 slots and meditate...

I like how people are using the revelation that 8.1 will feature a 'faction raid' as some evidence that Jaina will be a raidboss and defeated as part of the overall escalation. While its likely that the two raids will feature the respective fleets there's no freaking way they went through all...

I would think they would do something like that once the second Warfront opens up.

So now we know what happened to some of the missing classes... *edit* This is indeed a spoiler for the game itself!

I moved the install location to my SSD instead of my traditional data drive and the result was a substantial improvement in performance. I suspect the game has silly large textures that it keeps loading over and over.

Ahh gotcha. Speaking of which I'm not sure what the hell to do with the third puzzle for Kael's Axe. I click the green gem and the 'collar' lifts up but then I can't seem to move, click, or do anything.

The code wheel is not as obvious, though they do show on the map as 'code wheel' locations. Basically anytime you see a blue pillar with a couple constellations and a moon on it that's a code wheel situation. Use the wheel to match the constellations / moon and you get a couple numbers that...

There are rares in the Warfront itself or just the Arathi Rares in the open world?

Web Based Code Wheel for Bards Tale IV Significantly better that my pre-K quality one I printed out.

So is there a chance the Warfront can Warforge to something past 340? Right now I did it once (got boots...yay?) and dunno if I should bother ever doing it again.

I'm enjoying it. It isn't, however, what I was expecting when I initially backed the game in 2015. Bards Tale was my first computer RPG and so it holds a special place in my heart as a result. I knew that the new game wouldn't be a - a - a - d - d - c stfl, but I was hoping for something a...

I got a 6 mo subscription when BfA launched so I did indeed get gifted the Dreadwake on login just now. Amusingly enough it doesnt count as a water-walking mount even though its an actual ship.

So Variety is reporting that Disney's new streaming service will include limited (6-8 episodes long) series set in the MCU. Similar to what they did for Netflix with the twist that these will be about much more.major characters. Loki and Scarlet Witch in particular are mentioned and yes they...

The fact that you can see the white of his eyes all the way around the iris indicates that Asmongold is more than a bit unhinged. No normal person has eyes that are that open.

I recently added a damage meter as my only addon. Yes, I am indeed one of those unwashed plebes who uses the default UI and likes it. There are a couple of times where having something like DBM would be nice (I think of this everytime I open up the adventure journal to remember what this next...

It would be nice if this was indeed all tied into some unknown universal reboot as part of Avengers 4 that lets the Xmen and Fantastic Four exist afterwards.

So is she Carol Danvers or a Super Skrull who thinks shes Carol Danvers?

Right after the opening teaser 'THAAAANANKKKK YOOOOUUUU" I realized that this whole episode was going to be a 'single take' monologue. Pretty bold and yet very effective.

Pancheros are what used to be La Bamba before the falling out that split the business in half. La Bamba is what I devoured in high school / college and still miss horribly to this day. When the first one opened (that is the very first one) it was like a revelation. Years later I came...

It is refreshing that the villains are actually nuanced characters. It takes up the mantle of Zuko and Iroh from Avatar and goes even further in humanizing them. They truly do not see themselves as villains nor is the 'good' King uniformly a good person.

I'm finally gonna unlock the defensive tier on my Azerite armor today at which point I'll have to go through my Lando Calrissian-esque closet of alternate gear to see which combination of head, chest and shoulders has the traits I desire. I suspect there will be annoying tradeoffs as it's hard...

The more I wander around Boralus the more I'm thinking there has to be some sort of big multi-patch content planned for these cities to flesh them out. There are really a ton of small shops and the city itself actually has some sensible design to it, but 80% of it is currently slums that you...

Getting Exalted with Champions of Azeroth was decidedly anticlimactic. I was expecting a boost in the Heart ilevel or a story hook chat with Magni or something.

So this just showed up on Netflix and it seems, from the first episode, to be pretty damn good. Producers are the same as had worked on Avatar: The Last Airbender and you can see much of that DNA in the presentation although the animation style is a bit different. Very much a high fantasy...

Title: The Dragon Prince Genre: Action & Adventure, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Animation Creator: Justin Richmond, Aaron Ehasz Cast: Jack DeSena, Sasha Rojen, Paula Burrows First aired: 2018-09-14 Overview: Two human princes forge an unlikely bond with the elven assassin sent to kill them...

Ive still not done Kings Rest ever, I only just a couple days ago realized where the entrance was. On another note -- while levelling up a monk alt I am actually getting all the cinematics and various cutscenes that were either missing or buggy on launch. The whole Freehold quest section...

What dungeons do people avoid like crazy on mythic+? Which are your go-to for farming easy shit like the weekly?

In the final release respeccing your abilities is very costly and not the sort of thing you will be doing constantly like you can now. In addition they increased the number of Mastery slots by 1 so you can now have 4 things slotted instead of 3.

Today is the day! I am ready to be depressed. Seriously this show is all about schadenfreude

I played a Chua medic and while the class was fun as hell it was also hell trying to get people to play along. No matter how many times I told people they needed to be in front of me in order to get healed they would bitch about 'bad healz' while standing in the back and actively dodging the...

The unlock pace vs acquisition of higher ilevel is a legitimate head scratcher. My best guess goes something like this: The final two tiers in each Azerite piece are actually not intended to be used by anyone except as a catch-up mechanism. If you are coming into the content late (and thus...

In Legion I started out feeling sluggish and somewhat meh but after unlocking the various abilities on the AP track I progressively fell into a solid rhythm. Once set bonuses came into play there was a distinct specialized flavor to the class and I felt genuinely powerful. So far in BfA I...

Weather channel has really upped their AR game. The floating car is an especially nice touch.

It is interesting, at least to me, to see these post mortems as they often show what a complete fucking mess game development really is. It is clear that these entities lack fundamental systems engineering, but that seems typical of most entities that rise up from a completely Agile environment.

Which is odd since, at one point anyway, the mission / follower system was meant to be a core part of a mobile-based full fledged companion game that went much further than the older mobile app. Perhaps they got scared by all the loot crate microtransactions = gambling stuff?
