Tencent approach would be grindier, which nerfing player power implicitly does, but then also break up the progression in artificially small chunks to keep the illusion of progression but not really. Dailies, I believe they are called. Then lump in a whole ton of P2W. Nirgon mad cuz not Brad.

Inconvenience I think is a bit mild. I guess Heat flasks become triggered and you reroll all curse maps?

Wouldn't continuing to play the game while not buying packs signal them the strongest? You could stop playing for a variety of valid reasons that have nothing to do with the game or GGG.

If they want to retain a certain type of player with these changes, yes, I would agree. Overall amount of players retained, I'm not so sure these are geared towards that.

With the feedback in this thread and reddit, I don't see how these changes are geared towards retention.

So don't buy the supporter pack. Sounds like you agree with me.

I'm not sure heavy defense helps that much on Sirus. The DIE and NONEXISTENCE beams and meteor are all binary. Rain of Stars pretty close to it. Long time between fights is definitely an issue. Not really sure I can recommend anything there. I still die on the fight. A deathless A8 Sirus...

I know there's a ton of factors involved, so it's more than just microtransactions vs box cost. I guess if you enjoy the game as a service, I would prefer PoE's microtransaction model. They've had some serious fuckups lately and being owned by tencent has made it really hard to justify buying...

More damage certainly helps since a shorter encounter means fewer chances to fuck up. But there is no DPS check to the Sirus fight. I'd suggest learning the fight on something like Ignite or Storm Brand, which lets you stay at range and focus on the mechanics while maintaining full dps.

I'll play SSF if I could feel like I'm making meaningful progression and no content(i.e.: builds) are out of my reach in 3 months. That GGG can't make that happen is an indictment on them. Players want easier trade because that's the only way they can think to solve that equation. It is not...

Reacting to ailments is going to be a bitch if that's what actually ends up happening. Which means everyone just slots in ailment immunity instead. The UI and combat speed do not allow for that level of decision making. This is why steel builds will never be meta. That said, I DO react to...

Right, I was considering making that joke.

A tad ironic as she seemed indestructible in this movie.

Bodyswap, Necromancer for Corpse Pact, Desecrate and Volatile Dead in Kitava's Thirst. Meme build or srs bsns?

Are you play a skill? It will be nerfed.

Does that shit kill moss that likes grow in cracks in your driveway? I tried pressure washing them out and they just come right back.

Go back to pirating?

I'm not saying he's wrong, but he's painting a one-sided argument with rose-colored glasses. From what I gather, he's a college professor? If he wants his arguments to be more definitive, I think he should be less feels with the past. Also, he's turned off comments. I don't know the...

What exactly is change management? To me it sounds like someone dedicated to reviewing and approving commits.

Good software development should include automated performance regression testing and profiling. I manage QA for static analysis tool and we routinely benchmark it against large codebases like Android. Deviations in time outside of 5% usually require investigation so that cause can at least be...

Hiding links behind spoilers doesn't hide it from scrapers. Watched Bourne Identity and Supremacy recently, both superior movies. I'll take shakycam fights I can't follow yet still looks the combatants are doing damage to each other versus this quick cut bullshit where immortals tickle each...

I've never seen that side-by-side picture either. I bet part of it is your brain hearing his voice and literally drawing conclusions with the image. That said, they should have fucked with us and modeled him after Emilio Estevez.

I guess I can see not knowing Yvonne Strahovski voiced and modeled Miranda Lawson. She's not THAT big of an actress. But I also remember the internet making a big deal about it. But I don't know how you hear Keith David's voice and not go "Is that Keith David?". I don't know how you hear...

Did you guys even play the game originally?

Doug Liman Jason Bourne or Shakycam Paul Greengrass Jason Bourne?

Look how much traffic this thread got and then extrapolate that. Quality content is not their intent.

Had to check when that video was made. Thought it was some black comedy joking about a dead guy returning from retirement.

What might be the common factor then?

So, did you fuck her in the bathroom?

$200M was the budget for this turd. I wonder how many seasons of Expanse-quality TV that could have funded. I even just seasons 7-9 of the Expanse itself. Yes, I know the comparison I'm making is a bit too simplistic. I'm just continually dumfounded how there is too much stuff to watch and...

Great, more screen clutter! /s?

You're jealous.

Too bad they couldn't revamp your ability to take a screenshot.

"Ended up" implies they couldn't have known their risk would turn out horribly. When people recommend taking risks, it's assumed you don't forget basic writing tenets like avoiding character assassination and mary sues.

Reddit is pretty boring recently, tbh.

The like/dislike ratio on that video is unexpected. 856:560. First skill looked bladestorm. Second skill, idk, could be good. Third skill is a giant plus sign. Fourth skill is dark pact.

Shapeshifters already exist in Diablo.

So when's your next massage?

I haven't watched this series, but it sounds like the common mistake of cool idea/scene and worked backwards from there to awkwardly set it up.

Heh, reading this thread makes me anxious because it gives my imagination the juice it needs to start thinking of all they different ways my house is in need of repair or soon could be. The posters here are indeed quite helpful. Perhaps more of a commentary on myself then.
