    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    I just finished the capital city stuff, and I'm struggling to continue. I find the game just average, with nothing that truly stands out. The story is average, the combat is average. Character progression would be interesting if the skills/spells you got were more useful. While POE1 wasn't as...

    The game is still conspiring against me reaching Diamond, I keep reaching 2980 or so before I start losing again. I think I've been at 1 game from Diamond at least 10 times this week.

    The best part is at the very beginning, you can make a choice that ends the game right there and then. :)

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    So early reaction are out. It seems that first act is slow, picks up in second act and is a lot of fun. Donald Glover steals the show, the Han Solo guy is ok but it takes a while to get used to Han not being Harrison Ford.

    Am I the only find8ng the ship combat absolutely awful? I hope there isn’t much of it because I really hate that shit, almost gamebreaking to be honest.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Yeah it's pretty lame, I preferred the theory that he was afraid because Thanos kicked his ass. That being said, the Hulk did experience life during his 2 years on Sakaar which wasn't just fight fight fight, so in a way it might make sense. I'm not sure where they'll go with this though.

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    After about 4 hours last, I am enjoying the game a lot. It feels like a big improvement over PoE1. Everything seems to be streamlined and just cleaner overall. Not exactly a critic of the game's combat itself as it is fine, but having just finished Divinity Original Sin 2 this weekend, I can...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    I just finished this with a friend of mine, we each played 2 characters. We don't discuss what option to chose in conversations, whoever is having a conversation makes the decision. Well the fucking asshole betrayed me in favor of ruling side by side with a demon, and killed everyone in the...

    3 times during the last 3 days I was 1 win from hitting Diamond for the first time...all 3 times, I went on a losing streak of 3-4 games before climbing back again, I'm at 2893 now. The game is conspiring against me to keep me from Diamond. :)

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    They are making more money this way than they would make actually releasing the game. It's really disappointing, a modern Privateer sounded so cool.

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    One of the thing I've read is that they streamlined the quest text, so there should be less to read, the same person also mentioned that the side quests were more interesting.

    Well I just learned something new after 2 years of playing this...a Torbjorn player just told the group that he plays Torbjorn as a tank, and to trust him. That went fucking well. Fuck this game sometimes, most of the times actually. :(

    I’m so tired of Widowmaker. My last 5 games were decided by who had the better Widowmaker, luckily I won 3 and lost 2, but it doesn’t change the fact that Widowmaker was the deciding factor in all 5 games. Her only real counter right now is another Widowmaker. It’s the same thing watching OWL...

    Here you go all 4 together. These are from Sideshow Collectibles, and they are a reinterpretation of the characters with a more realistic take. They are not meant to be the cartoon version exactly.

    8-1 tonight, loss was on last match of the night. :) The cone nerf of Brigitte Shield Bash is barely noticeable in my opinion. She got nerfed on PTR again, armor from her ultimate went from 150 max to 100.

    I agree this isn't a lot of content, and none of it falls into the must watch category...for me at least. I wonder what the pricing will be like.

    After playing some more Brigitte I am now 11-6-2 with her. 63% win rate which is pretty after 20 games or so. I think she will change the meta a bit, seeing tons more of Zarya now, her right click splash damage isn't blocked by Brigitte shield like Junkrat and Pharah splash damage. Also her...

    I was talking with some friends about the movie especially the deaths, who would come back, who wouldn't, who might die in the next one to bring back those who have died in this one. We had a very (never going to happen) interesting bit of speculation about Spider-man. The deal between Sony...

    Probably at some point, but I doubt they'll do in the short term. They want to stop dive domination the meta like it has for the past year more than anything else, even if it means a somewhat OP hero. They are going to wait and see what impact she has on the meta, especially in OWL. OWL is 90%...

    In plat, she’s viable pretty much all the time to be honestly. The level of coordination isn’t great at this rank and that usually favours her as she is one of the best duelist in the game. She does great on most 2cp map, and control as the fights there usually happen in tight areas where she...

    7-3 for 2595SR which is nice since I ended the season at 2505, so a 90pts increase. I went 7-2 with Brigitte, lost the 1 game I couldn't get her. Overall quite happy with how it went.

    At that point he didn't want to personally get involved. He had others do his bidding. He knew Earth had the Space Stone(Tasseract), and gave the staff with the Mind Stone in to Loki to help him get the Tasseract for him. Loki didn't even know he had an Infinity Stone. He didn't expect Earth...

    There's a different between developing WoW and Pantheon though, Pantheon is not a quests based game. I'm not sure how much of WoW development is spent on writing and implementing quests compared to building a zone, populating with mobs and itemizing it, but it's something Pantheon is not doing...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    I doubt it. First, the movies were written before the deal was announced, and mostly filmed too. Second the deal isn't done yet. There are serious concerns that Disney+Fox would give Disney too much power and be on a monopolistic position something like 40% of all film revenues. They probably...

    It's possible, I get the feeling they are just so tired of dive being so dominant on almost every map, offense and defense that they will do anything to try and reduce it, and then adjust if they overdid it. Dive has been the dominant strategy now for close to a year if not more, with nothing to...

    Some of the Symmetra changes seem to be made to counter dive. The ability to put the teleport 25 meters away will allow her to put it on high ground and have the group teleport there. Making it easier for non-dive character to reach some high ground. I like the changes, seems like she might be...
