    Rogue Legacy

    Think it was on the first day? Not sure thought I saw it, bought it a week ago though so whatever. Played it for a bit, I find it a bit too grindy and dislike the randomization of the classes you can pickup, but it's otherwise pretty fun and certainly plenty difficult(well as long as you try to...

    Ah guess I missed out on Chivalry, will pick it up at the end of the sale unless it pops as a daily/community deal first.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I wonder if they'll have a macro to save set, cause then you can just make macros for your set change that goes Save current set > change to set X. So it always saves when you change and you don't have the issue. Also want a macro to select the option in the gathering window so I can just press...

    I don't know about mind numbing but yeah overall it didn't work out all that well. It makes for good pvp games though imo, much better than wow type gameplay but for pve it's too spammy and tends to not be deep enough other than targetting requirements which is basically pointing in the general...

    Yeah that's why I don't think you should balance it with rigid setups and instead go with a normal setup where you have access to all abilities at once, but put more emphasis on using the right skill for the right situation by tweaking cooldown, costs and requirements. Instead of spells costing...

    What you slot as encounters is class specific. Might have changed but as a Champion, it was 2 DPS abilities then 1 that was kinda what you wanted, like the aoe mark or the charge or whatever. Mostly it was all DPS, your 2 at wills were DPS and the one good daily was DPS. DPS class=all DPS...

    Well it's not an autoattack cause it actually exclusive with skills and you still have to keep something pressed. If you keep it pressed all the time, which you pretty much do, there is no reason you have to press it in the first place. It's just a skill with no cooldown.

    That's a pretty stupid statement. For most intent and purposes, NWO and GW2 combat were the same in terms of abilities, only that in NWO you had to mash your autoattack key, or at least keep the mouse button for it pressed, while it was autocast in GW2, and that there were a whooping THREE more...

    That's 3 in X? Is that new? Never seen that, don't really see the point, if you have 2 in X you setup the torrent and the torret setup the boat anyway, is 3 so you can setup the boat first? I totally agree on X before maxing Tidebringer if you're solo though, cause you're going to chain kill...

    Leves are repeatable quests, you get assigned 4leve points every 12hours(so 8 a day), you can use these to pickup leves every 5 levels, which you then can level adjust for better rewards(like you're lvl 10, you pick a lvl 10 leve and make it +3 so it's 13, gives better rewards). Then you...

    That's how I started too but after a while I just started focusing on supports and then on certain supports. The ones I find fun to play.

    It's closed beta atm, it ends monday(or is it sunday still, not sure, but this weekend). Phase 4 which is open beta will start in ~2weeks, possibly more and supposedly will last a week and won't be wiped for release, confirmation and details later.

    Yeah carry abaddon had a few but see I wouldn't mind so much because they're doing dmg and shit so the item kinda makes sense, but blink dagger is so awful especially since I'm pretty sure in dota2 dmg you take with your ult on still puts blink on cooldown(it doesn't in dota1) so you can't even...

    You can still solo queue, but the option is in a semi hidden spot now because who knows. Check Locations, it has the Solo Queue box you can tick. I've had a lot of shitty games today too, but mostly I think it's the combination of new patch, release and weekend. I had a fucking blink first...

    Non systematic downtime too, downtime should be used as a punishment for playing bad/innefficiently, not just for playing. Making certain classes reduce downtime is fine even though I feel class identity should be something else than "not having to sit as long if you have one in your group" kind...

    I agree that what you see in a pro game isn't necessarily useful material to learn how to play the game, but I don't feel that's necessarily a concern, nor an absolute truth. I started watching pro games early when I started playing and yeah I didn't learn all that much other than seeing item...

    It was more like dota=lol when it comes to pros streaming. And matchmaking being fairly shitty, that's just dota. They said they weren't too happy with the matchmaking so hopefully at some point they fix it. It's bad at every level too, newbies getting grouped with very high people, regardless...

    Vanguard, WoW, it's all the same casual shit. Less than 1 min downtime? Not in my fucking mmo. I need to be able to order a pizza and wait for it to get there between pulls otherwise that game isn't worth "playing". The less I play, the better the game is. I like hyperboles too.

    DOTA 2

    They do quite often, they also get matched against people who have high rating but aren't as good as pros. Overall their rating and matching system seems to have too much variance, with the release hopefully they tighten it up since there's were more than enough people nowadays to find games...

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    Well to be fair, looks like older Ultimas too, it's just the way it was done back then. Don't know if I want to have to drag and drop every fucking thing though. Like when he cut that board into 4 sticks and then had to drag drop all 4 of them I was like ugh I don't wanna do that. Hopefully...

    Well I don't think anyone gives a fuck how fast people who had geared lvl 50s at launch take to clear raid content. Nor do I expect it to take more than 2-3weeks for non legacy players to clear, just because the lvling speed doesn't look slow and there's very little chance raid content is tuned...

    Hmm Merlini, Dendi and Singsing and people like that usually had around 2-5k viewers. I think mostly the difference is the constant tournaments though. I mean if I look at my own habits, I haven't looked at a player's stream in like maybe 3months, and even then it was like watching Dendi or...

Since I picked up Scriblenauts and Dota2 is probably patching a new hero this week I guess I'll just wait until it comes back again at the end of the sale or...

    Spirit Breaker as a support sounds kinda meh but could work I guess. Abaddon who's coming tonight is a good support if you wanna dive shit(in HoN he was Accursed), Nyx is nice to find solo kills even when you're playing as a support(if you played HoN, Nyx is the hero Fayde was inspired by, even...

    He mentions the "LoL way" of targetting, which might not be from LoL but iirc I remember it being added there before I knew, where you press the key and as long as you hold it, you see the marker, and it fires on release. Hopefully this is optional(firing on keypress is better) but it lets you...

    He's a pretty decent mid too. His armor is kinda shit but the shield blocks a lot of damage and removes a lot of annoying shit like QoP's dot and he can push the lane really hard using his passive on creeps, kinda like Beastmaster aura plus the shield explosion, then his high base movespeed lets...

    Iirc in HoN they also made his shield not remove stuns anymore, which is a huge nerf. Your carry gets roared? Np just shield to dispel. Also yeah his ult autoactivation is a big deal especially since unlike hon it also disjoints on activation. One funny interaction is that it self dispels Doom...

    On the other hand, Fnatic is on a roll recently. They're beating everyone in a lot of very one sided stomps with a really fun to watch super agressive style that reminds me of their hon days.

    Because he's the first hero being released in the past 2 months? Also because he's a support and I like supports. As for his competitive level, he was sometimes picked, rarely. He's basically a cockblock hero when you try to gank a hard carry or whatever. You need very good burst to kill...
