    EQ TLP - Yelinak (True-Box Timelocked Progression)

    I regret missing out on Mischief too (aside from like, Classic and Kunark). I even got the monk epic on there. Shoulda stuck around. Hopefully next year's round of TLPs will be less of duds than this year.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I threw in my two cents, for what it's worth. I think that guy writing essays about GoD and "testers" might need to wear a helmet when he goes outside.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah, I also think the energy is spent for most of the heavy-hitters. I still have some left to go, but in general Bind Rush seems to very close to retirement mode at the moment. I'm interested to see which guilds step up and tackle the achievements going forward.

    People on that board tend to be full of bad takes. "Rajaah just wants the server to be easy!"

    EQ TLP - Yelinak (True-Box Timelocked Progression)

    Yeah, Vaniki and Yelinak both seem to be dealing with a large enthusiasm deficit at this point compared to other servers. Not sure how much longer I'll keep plowing away on Vaniki. I think WoW is going to slam EQ good in the next month or so because the current TLP round (and the current live...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Even though you're taking a potshot, you're right, and the Great Commander Debacle is still fresh in people's minds. I don't think content-pushing is an issue, the issues are maintaining strong numbers. This server seems very much like a server where people went hard early and then burned out...

    You'll have to ask him because I don't know. I think he was picked up in the banwave (a bunch of BR were AFAIK) and just decided not to come back. Maybe he'll turn up on here and offer an explanation because I know he reads this. Thraka is leading now and we're doing fine, farming epic fights...

    <Bind Rush> is recruiting to fill out the raid force! Have had lots of server firsts (including a bunch of server first epic 1.5s), and we beat every server raid achievement that actually works. Loot is plentiful, and even alts are getting gear. We're now mostly asshole-free because they all...

    What a tiresome thread. Any interesting raid kills happening?

    Prey

    I was trying to figure out during the movie if that pistol she had was the one from Predator 2. At the end you see the plate on it and yes, it is. During the credits there's a montage of art of the movie, and the last part actually shows something that happens after the movie ends. A bunch of...

    What are you playing?

    Playing DBZ Kakarot, action/RPG hybrid. Is decent but nothing incredible, basically what it reviewed as. It's almost done and I'm going right into Live a Live. After that are Uncharted 4 and Xenoblade X. Probably in that order. Though I saw some videos on Mortal Shell and I'm not sure I can...

    JRPGs

    Key words were "in comparison to the others". FFT and Vagrant Story are two of the best game soundtracks in existence. Just remembered another one he did, Valkyria Chronicles. Not sure -which- ones he did...1 and 4 I think.

    Yeah, we're down a bunch of people in Bind Rush to suspensions, been slightly number-deficient. It's pretty obnox.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    MPG trials are VERY different at 60 compared to 70. People are going to need totally different strategies in some cases. Mastery of Hate is a fairly basic trial with inordinately good loot (well above Time or even most of GoD) so I think farming it on lockout is a pretty good idea. @Animosity...

    I mean, should he not be looking for clerics? If you're a recruiter and not actively looking for clerics at any given time, you're not really doing your job. I'm not seeing too much of the "no room for healers cause boxes" thing compared to other servers. Lots of people are boxing for group...

    JRPGs

    Anyone here play Dragonball Z: Kakarot? Seems like a decent follow-up to the old DBZ RPGs on the Famicom and Super Famicom, with the battles playing more like a fighting game. Outside of those it has leveling up and sidequests and random battles, etc. I'm about halfway through it and the...

    Hitoshi Sakimoto (hope I'm remembering it right) is also pretty incredible, the guy who did the soundtracks for Vagrant Story / Final Fantasy Tactics. He also did FF12 but it's a fairly forgettable soundtrack in comparison to the others. Personally my totally un-controversial list is: 1...

    Is the Torna music in question mostly Yasunori Mitsuda? I know he did a lot of tracks for base XB2. If so, feel free to link a couple standout tracks on here! Said it before and I'll say it again, Yasunori Mitsuda is the best game composer of all time, bar none. Sometimes I wonder how much of...

    The Orville

    Well, I don't really have time for it as is. I have Hulu for a month due to Prey, so maybe I'll try to watch it. This thread isn't very encouraging though. I don't mind leftism in shows, heck I agree with a lot of it like "treat everyone equally" and so on, but modern ham-fisted leftism that...

    The Orville

    Sorry if it was already said cause I'm not caught up and I'm working, but is this still on Hulu? If not, where? I LOVE Orville. Though it sucks that this has veered more into leftist la-la-land, if that's true. Could have been a nice centrist/balanced counter to Star Trek's descent into...

    JRPGs

    Try the FF6: Brave New World romhack. It's FF6...with some interesting character customization options (the Esper level up bonuses are now a big deal and basically spec your character in certain ways). A lot of the bosses are rebalanced to actually be a challenge under this new system. Also...

    Yeah, I can't wait for Saga Frontier 2 to drop. That was one of the last 3 PS1 games I wanted to play and didn't get to back in the day. The others are Breath of Fire 4 (finally finished it a few months ago) and Parasite Eve 2 (have it downloaded on PS3, the controls are so rough now so I don't...

    That's how I felt every time I subbed to WoW for a little while. Most of the PUGs I did there were COMICALLY bad. People running off cliffs and shit. My favorite was how like half the times when a PUG would wipe, everyone would start running back in one by one instead of waiting for the others...

    I'm really liking all these POR quests that give high-HEM loot. Still have a bunch of them to get to myself, but it's great to have gear options outside of raids. An issue I've run into is that most of the good DoN augs still have rec level 70 on them, which lowers the stats of any item you...

    How much real money have MMOs made you?

    It doesn't involve real money, but I did a similar thing when I went back to the game in 2004. Had about 8000 plat in the bank from 2001, wanted to start a monk. Could have blown the plat on a couple decent weapons and been done with it, but instead I did some bazaar-observing and figured out...

    Bringing multiple guilds in and making a real run at downing CBQ would have been a blast. Maybe with like a hundred people it wouldn't have been a situation of insurmountable boss regen. Unfortunately the fight has to be in a DZ for the achievement. Can't remember if it's 54 or 72 limit for the...

    Dark Souls

    DS2 is really cool, great atmosphere, best hub area in the series. A lot of the zones in that game feel legit kind of mystical if that makes sense. Also the lore of the game is really interesting with the queen screwing the kingdom over, the war with the giants, etc. Right now after replaying...

    How's Thailand? I've been wondering what it's like to live in a place where brothels are rampant and legal. Not so much Thai Ladyboys though, thinking more Scandinavia where the average woman is an 11.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I did that with Ashes of Alar, or whatever the phoenix mount dropped by Kil'Jaeden is called. Got really good at clearing Tempest Keep solo at level 100. Or maybe it was 90 or 110, I don't remember. Whatever it was, I did it once a week for like 30 weeks and finally got it. I don't think I was...

    How much real money have MMOs made you?

    I had someone do a chargeback on an Ebay sale I made a few months ago, basically stole $60 out of my pocket for a game I'd shipped them weeks earlier, no explanation, no nothing, and Ebay didn't help because I didn't see the chargeback until after the 7 day period you have to contest it or...

    I'd like a remastered Xenosaga Trilogy, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Final Fantasy 13 Trilogy, and Dark Souls Trilogy. Like 3 in 1 sets. At the very least it looks like we're getting Metroid Prime remasters one at a time, which hopefully means much higher-effort than a 3 in 1 set. I'd love to see...

    Playstation 5

    Yeah, didn't seem to be any way to load my existing saves n' stuff on the PS5 versions of THPS and Yakuza. Oh well. Not a big deal, don't know if I'll play 'em more anyway. Only have a little bit left to do in Yakuza and I don't know if I'll ever actually beat the THPSes. Like halfway through...

    It's non-doable before 60. At 55 we had a raid DPS of...I'm kinda guessing a ballpark here, but I think it was around 2.5k. At 60 so far we have 5k ish on a regular fight, could probably spike it higher on a burn call. Well CBQ regens like 12-15k HP a tick, which is roughly 2-2.5k a second...

    Playstation 5

    If I download the PS5 versions of Yakuza and THPS, can I bring over my saves and trophies from the PS4 versions? I'm assuming I can upload the saves from the PS4 versions, then get the PS5 versions and download the saves. And trophies will probably auto-pop like they did with FF7R PS5.

    This was a discussion earlier in the thread I think... Chrono Cross is definitely a bit divisive. For me, the soundtrack basically carried the game. I still think it has the best soundtrack in videogame history. There was some really cool lategame stuff that was tied to CT (Chronopolis, the...
