    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    The MMO landscape is littered with the corpses of devs that had lofty plans for shit like you described, but never materialized because a) couldn’t get it to work b) no budget c) it wasn’t fun. Plus you have player psychology, so everyone gravitates towards the “best” faction, creating the...

    Keep in mind that was born from player requests. Quests in EQ1 were pretty garbage. Spam random keywords at random NPCs and hope you trigger something. Players found step 10 and no one ever found the prior steps. Then it eventually was catalogued online and you followed the steps discovered...

    Ya that sucked. I used to use the bridge teleport glitch in the Karanas to save like 60 seconds of running lol

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The show runners have mentioned the scouring of the Shire in interviews, so NK is dead. Cersei is coming to fuck up some hobbits.

    PVP "Crush n' Conquer" games that can erase weeks or months of work are always going to be niche. Everyone wants to be the wolf, no one wants to be the sheep.

    Considering the drug abuse in that city, that probably ends up being the same thing.

    Ya, ring events were dogshit. One of the worst changes they made in Velious was when they made Vulak only spawn after a shitty ring event. Thankfully we were more or less done farming Vulak at that point, but it sucked for people who still wanted the odd off item or new recruits.

    lol, I forgot about project NPC. That was horrible for noobs. I remember spawning as a fire beetle and I was circle strafing some poor level 1 outside Freeport.

    Final line of the show will be "...and here I thought I would only taste giant's milk once!"

    BuT tHe WoRlD fEeLs ToO sMaLl!!! Make the journey once? fine. A few times? fine. But by the 100th time, you just want to fucking AFK and literally do anything else except make that stupid trip again.

    That wouldn't change much. FFXIV's recent Easter quest was pretty much a puzzle that players had to figure out with virtually no hints in the game. I'm reasonably certain 90% of players just googled the solution and finished it that way. All removing ingame roadmaps does is make players...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Honestly if their goal is to subvert expectations, then I expect Dany to die or not get the throne. Like others have echoed, the death of Jorah and the loss of most of her dothraki and unsullied are going to harden her. In her eyes, anyone who didn't help in the battle of the Night King is in...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    In an interview they let slip she was 800 years old, which means she could have lived in Valryia and why she seemed so powerful. I have to think that she was tasked with the singular goal of defending against the dead. Once that task was over, she peaced out like a vampire that just wanted to...

    Right, people can have opinions, but probably half the posts here have basically boiled down to “this is how I would written the scene/this is how it should have played out”

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They problem with the undead is traditional tactics are completely useless. They have no fear and feel no pain. But while they are fairly "mindless" individually, they also have a necromancer directing their actions. If you figure out a trick, then he figures out the solution and passes it...

    Mortal Kombat 11

    The models in 9 were trash. Sonya looks like they glued fucking beachballs to her chest. I honestly like the realism approach in 11 in terms of outfits and models. Not just the women, but the men as well. Gives it a much more cinematic appeal. Anyways, if you like ultra tits, Jade still has...

    The Melisandre prophecy said Arya would close brown, blue, and green eyes. Walder Frey: Brown, NK: Blue....Cersei green?

    Ya, looks like Ghost is alive. From the preview next week, you see him behind Dany when she has a torch to burn the bodies of the dead.

    Nah, he'll just use the show as a base and use that to subvert expectations in the book. Then again, that is implying he actually finishes a book lol

    They show 2 dragons in the preview for next week, so looks like it lives And ya, RIP House Mormont

    Melisandre also knows things from watching the flames. She could have easily known stuff about Arya, including Syrio's teachings to her.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    So Ser Friendzone, Ed, Dany's bloodrider (I forget his name), Melisandre, Lyanna Mormont, Theon, Beric as confirmed dead. Did Gilly die? I couldn't tell if the woman that got dragged away when the crypt zombies came to life was her or not. MIA: Ghost? I mean, we don't see him after the...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Alternatehistoryhub made a video about this, after the director confirmed the Thanos snap removed 50% of all life (not just sentient). He points out that you now have half your lifestock and half your crops vanishing, creating famine issues. Plus half your trees and algae vanish, which causes...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Cap going back in time 100% creates an alternate timeline. Carter was instrumental in early SHIELD's development as its director. Plus you have all her interactions with Howard Stark. Cap in no way could sit back and just let shit unfold and Carter would insta-divorce him or worse if she...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Ya, the Cap sendoff was great. Peggy and Steve never really fully got over each other, so it was nice to see them reunited and get their happy ending. I don't think people really have an issue with that, just with how it seemed to break their own rules with Old Man Cap appearing in the present...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Eureka is basically EQ1/FFXI bottled into a entire zone. Can't solo (efficiently anyways), non-instanced dungeon inside, etc. I tried a couple mobs, took forever, realized I got sick of this shit back in the late 90s/early 2000s, and noped the fuck out of that zone.

    Yes, although they didn't have the same issue with the Agent Carter TV show. They used the same actor for Jarvis in his brief cameo.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    It's best not to think about the time travel logic, because there was none. It was a mish-mash of multiverse and linear time, although more on the multiverse side. However, the biggest wrench was the end

    City of Heroes has actually been online for years....

    My low level noob hero still lives in there I guess if they have the character data. I think I only got to around 30 before I quit the game.

    The Orville

    Literally boom in the episode lol Good episode, but didn’t feel like a season finale. I do hope this gets renewed, it’s a great show and scratches that Star Trek itch. Then again, it’s Fox, so that doesn’t bode well.

    FFXIV is mostly western fantasy settings and classes. You didn’t really see Asian themed zones until Stormblood, because you basically travel to their version of Japan/Mongolia. If you legit want to try it out, I have a pc starter edition code still.
