    How does it compare to poeapp? I'm a grumpy old man and hate learning new interfaces.

    What's lame? The fact that they reuse essentially the first part the game again? I mean, yeah, I guess. They're quite honest about it, though. When acts 6-10 were in development, Chris Wilson was explicit that they were trying to reuse as many assets as possible. If you go looking for it...

    Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales

    If you liked the lore and storytelling of CPDR's previous Witcher games, then get this. However, even on max difficulty, it's way too easy. Also, you might find the similarities to HoMM3 a homage or ripoff. Some of the cards have multiplayer versions. You don't have to play the multiplayer...

    Yeah, you can get pretty far with that build. Let me know if you want any gear, I got a ton of high level stuff that's just rotting in my stash. View Profile - Path of Exile - Deathwing6 JuggLivesMatter is the character name.

    :eek: Molten Strike is a good skill to start with. Link the build you're following.

    Sure, movement speed is a high priority. The only place where it conflicts with resists and life is in the boot slot, so I didn't feel like it was worth the clarification.

    Don't be afraid to ask questions. No one here is going to defend the game's complexity being noob unfriendly. There's simply a lot in the game that you learn because someone else told you, not because the game did. For example, did you know when you get a prophecy, it prerolls which...

    The priority while level is usually: cap resists > life > movement speed(boots) > 4L > Damage(from weapon).

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well, you can look at it a couple ways. He was genuinely interested in the Diablo franchise. And I think he is, to a degree. But, who else has been reporting on Diablo news? Perhaps not a reliable income, but certainly a good one to exploit(up until last week). Everyone else fled Diablo...

    MTG: Arena

    That counts as an arbitrary daily goal, I guess I was hoping for something bigger with a finality. Dailies, by definition, don't really end.

    MTG: Arena

    I'm not sure where else to put this, but this seems to be the most active card game thread atm. To some relatively good success, I've applied arbitrary goals to other games that have an undefined ending. For example, instead of playing PoE until I get bored, I stop playing when I reach a...

    Nah, we don't have that kind of mobility here. I'm not sure it would do much in the end. The further up the career tree you progress, the less programming you do. QA, development, doesn't really seem to matter. Or, I could just be telling myself that so I don't have to do the hard work of...

    So, people that "develop" automated blackboxing? I'm not sure I'd like that either. I'm the QA manager at a small shop and we do QA a bit differently. We still do some test result reviewing that I would like to push back on developers, luckily it's not much of my day anymore. But sometimes I...

    That's the immune-to-everything pathfinder, right? I'd say his profile is correct at the moment. He's got investment in vaal soul cost reduction but no vaal skills.

    Because they make more money investing those manhours into other projects. Low-hanging Diablo fruit might very well turn a profit. They likely have long list of current and future projects that will return a better profit, even for a company its size.

    Vegan. That's not a fair comparison. GGG does not have the stable of games that Blizzard does, thus manhours have a much different opportunity cost at both companies.

    Been playing around with VS Code for a bit. Is there a way to set relative directory paths? For example, if I have a file that imports a local module, I can set that up fine. But if I clone a branch, the absolute directory path is goofed up and it has no idea where that import is on the...

    You can do 24 in a couple weeks if that's your express intent. Just avoid any challenge that involves specific encounters in the mines. I mean, do them if you happen to find them, but do not go out of your way looking for them if you have easier challenges to do. 37 took me 7 weeks.

    I played MTGA a bit during closed beta, decided to go back to Gwent, at least until Homecoming debuted. Homecoming isn't sitting that well with me, and the game itself seems dead(I'm in the top 10k just doing dailies and a losing record). From my stint in closed beta, I remember them being a...

    Ladder is infested with non-interactive artifact decks. First patch for the game won't come until (late?)December. I have a LOSING record and yet I'm in the top 10k. Game honestly feels DOA. Kinda thinking of checking out MTGA again.

    I like the idea. It has no appeal to me directly as described in the link, but I won't write off the idea that someone could cook up a league that appeals later on. Indirectly, it's a diversification of GGG's revenue stream. This is good because unless they drastically change the price on...

    I disagree. Even just a "yeah, we're working on D4, we have nothing to show you though" would be a good response to this disaster. Who cares in the end how the game is marketed? Hell, "leak" through some streamer or whatever so it doesn't even look like your fault that the info got out...

    Why not drop lesser poison and pick up a Hypnotic jewel? Some interesting choices. Why vulnerability? And no offering? Basalt seems like it would be better than Taste of Hate, but I was also considering using a Loreweave over Kaom's. Summoner just seem to need so many gem sockets! No life...
