    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Ancestrals also drop as whites or blues, should add them to filter with highlight and yeah you can remove the affixes then make it into an ancestral unique. If you played PoE, a lot of the horadrim stuff is basic PoE crafting, it's quite well made and is kinda necessary to gear up after the...

    Saros

    The 30 days shit is kind of a non-issue, although it took people digging through the files with hacked consoles to figure out what it was before Sony actually came out and explained it. Basically, you have to login once after 30days to register the game to your account permanently. The goal is...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Just the cosmetics rewards. The season has basically no mechanic because it's a new expansion and there's already a ton of new stuff to do, you do get some seasonal bonuses like getting more rewards for a few things and a few cosmetics things but otherwise same thing.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    No, you just need to do the thing on the right side, doesn't matter what else you do. Main reason to do the left side stuff is for their specific rewards, some of which aren't actually important, but stuff like skill/paragon points and the ashes stuff to get your passive season bonuses up are...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Only if you want the 2 emblems, which is kinda whatever and if you do it's like what, 1h30 of speed leveling with twink gear? Don't think it's too much of a big deal tbh.

    Them cutting costs on QA isn't "socialism", that's just the usual brand of capitalism. They could make slightly less money if they spent a little bit more money on making the product better, but they don't want to do that because well, that's less money. Anything that has to do with costs isn't...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Man I wish they still had proper QA, I'm not even halfway into the new expansion and already 2 story quests bugged out, one worked fine after I restarted(although have to do the whole exploration shit again), 2nd one I tried once, it bugged out, googled it, saw people say you should do it...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Pretty sure it works like D3, which means even "spells" scale off your weapon, both the damage and the speed and there's no dedicated cast speed(although for some reason one of the warlock passives give cast speed to demons, which I'm fairly sure is just atk speed anyway).

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Playing Summoner Warlock, can't fucking see shit. Get on top of whatever I want to kill, summon 2 big guys spamming smashes everywhere, one giant guy doing half screen swipes, put a circle, spam explosions that are actually summons, which summons more stuff, can't see anything the entire...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Steam doesn't have preloading so maybe they added the delay so Steam players can start the season on time too? Seems weird though since I assume they didn't sell that many on Steam but eh. That or they expect the servers to be a big mess at launch and this gives time for people to get in the...

    Dark Souls

    I played Sekiro for the first time like 2-3 weeks ago, it had been sitting in my Steam library for years, and honestly I didn't find it very difficult. The main thing though is I'd say Sekiro isn't really a Souls-like, or at least I ended up not playing it much like one. Exploration was done...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Grabbed it yesterday since I didn't have a game lined up, so far progressing through the vanilla campaign, it's not so bad I guess. On the negative stuff, got the Diablo special like 20mins in when I got DCed mid cutscene for no reason and had to rewatch it and crashed once on some puzzle with...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    To be fair, they will likely get rid of it next expansion as long as Evolved isn't a complete flop. This is just a transitional thing so people can get used to it and they can refine it if there's big complaints, and then be like "ok now you switch cause we aren't going to keep making shit for...

    Chrono Trigger probably has several layers of copyright/IP bullshit so it wasn't super likely. Evangelion does collabs constantly(like every other gacha has an Evangelion collab) so much easier to get, similar to Nier which also has like 50 collabs. I really liked the Nier raid, the story was so...

    You didn't mention but they said the 2 new jobs would be tank and DPS. I think they didn't actually mention what kind of DPS though. Also Yoshida's T shirt is Rhytahtyn(sp?) which is the MSQ mini boss in ARR with 2 shields, so it should be a big shield tank, either actually 2 shields, or big...

    Damn September for Beastmaster, I was expecting this summer. Then again I was expecting the expansion to be this year in like November and it's January so still a lot of time. Datacenters queuing without having to do the whole dance is great, glad they managed the tech for that it was sorely...

    I don't have all the specific tabs though, I just throw a lot of these shits into normal tabs, it's good if you switch your atlas strats a bunch or if some get more nerfed than others but some of the specific tabs otherwise are only used if you specifically grind that mech, and some are outright...

    PoE doesn't cost anything though(other than the initial 30-40bucks you spend for stash at some point and that for some reason works in both games). This is 40 bucks expansions every year or whatever, and it still has microtransactions for cosmetics too(and similarly overpriced as PoE ones) so...

    Enshrouded

    1.0 is planned for Fall, so in like 6 months or so. This is the last major patch before 1.0, so people are excited about the future 1.0, not so much about this patch specifically(which also doesn't add much in terms of content, it's largely a qol/system rework patch so if you've played the...

    Reddit isn't a single big entity with mods being the same everywhere, each subreddit has its own mods, although some mods are mods in several of them. The PS5 subreddit is a lot bigger than the Playstation one and has a bunch of Pragmata related posts. The Playstation one apparently removed a...

    Windrose (PC Pirate Survival Game)

    I don't think there were many jumpscares, but as someone who doesn't like underwater stuff in general, I remember my run I was constantly stressed during the entire run. I still enjoyed the game a lot, it's great, always felt like starting again to progress, but I would play like 1 or 2 hours...

    My initial thought was they were going to do a big fight with all the past FF bosses they've already reused, Chaos, Cloud of Darkness(again), Zeromus, Neo Exdeath and Kefka. It could be a remake of the actual Triad and Kefka though as you mentionned since these are originally linked. I guess...

    Yoshida has been saying a bunch of stuff and hyping up the fanfest keynote, hopefully they deliver something decent. On a side note they showed more BST in today's stream. You will not control 3 beasts at the same time, instead you select 3 and can rotate them during the fight. They also show...

    Enshrouded is currently still planned for an end of year 1.0 release so might as well wait. They're also redoing the combat atm so should be better.

    I mean Marathon is made by Bungie, which is the studio that made Halo. Is it the same people? Well obviously most of them aren't seeing as Halo is 25years old but this isn't a case of "from the devs who worked on Diablo 2" and it's one guy who might have been an intern at the time that made his...

    REPLACED

    Played the demo a few months back and it felt pretty mid. Story was pretty boring stuff for the bits shown in the demo, and combat was very basic with the dodge/parry stuff but with warnings so it's super easy. I was interested cause it had Flashback vibes but had no interest after the demo...

    Crimson Desert

    Well there's a couple of screenshots attached that are gif that show the difference. Looks pretty nice. It's nice the game did well so they're spending time improving it, means when I finally buy it in 2027 or whenever I'll have a much nicer experience. Instead I'm playing games from ~10 years...

    Black Desert

    If his analysis was based on 2m then it's off by a pretty large amount. That said I wouldn't be too surprised if they weren't making a lot of money due to the game having been in dev hell for like 10years and shit. They definitely sank a lot of money into it, so don't know if it did well enough...

    Warframe

    They've been doing that for years. Ember Heirloom in 2024 is when they really started, the first 2 heirlooms aren't quite the same style. They also did Valkyr in the same way. Hell Mesa was already sexy in her Prime Frame, I prefer it if anything They just like to mix it up. Also most...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    Well that's the whole AI thing. I don't know how much it'd cost them to pivot back to selling to consumers, like with the high prices they could recoup some of the losses but if they already started restructuring and firing all their key people, rebuilding the entire system would be potentially...

    Last Epoch

    So I wasn't wrong when I thought one of the 2 "new" rogue skills when they teased them looked exactly like the bladestorm node for shadow dagger, because it's literally what it is, they made a skill out of the upgrade. And other skill is basically just Sentinel echo but for Rogues. Their...

    Sometimes you're inbetween games and the new game looks really appealing so you want to play it right away. I know I buy fully value games every now and then, but not that often. Looking at my Steam replay thing, in 2025 I bought 3 games on release, MH Wilds(which ironically was a big waste of...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    Yeah gonna wait to see that performance hit. Also feels like it'll make a lot of games looks same-ish because it'll apply a generic lightning filter on everything that'll ruin some artistic choices. Although for games that are just trying to look like Hollywood movies it'll look great I guess...

    I mean his argument isn't that you see a turd but can't guess it's going to taste shit, it's that you go to the Turds & Stuff restaurant and then complain to the manager that they're serving turds even though you're not planning on eating the turds anyway and some people are perfectly fine...

    I don't think they'll keep adding that many limited jobs tbh, they're probably going to have trouble maintaining the 2 they have currently already so I'd be surprised if we saw more later cause they need to keep giving them updates after making them. 1-50 was expected though, it's also not bad...

    Monster Hunter Stories 3 - Twisted Reflection

    The main "fix" I've seen is to disable Steam Record feature(not sure why anyone would use it but whatever), it's likely some Denuvo shit as usual with Capcom games. Potentially Shadowplay similar feature might also cause issues I'd guess? There might also be some garbage Nvidia driver mixed in...

    There were a bunch of stuff they said they're keeping for the fanfest so not that much was shown. New Ultimate is confirmed but the theme will be revealed in the fanfest for example. On inventory QoL, apparently you'll be able to store all dungeon sets in the armoire, which is infinite iirc? So...
