    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    None of the mechanics have changed yet, not even sure there is an eta yet. Consult the magic 8 ball next month. Shawn’s damage control posts in the sk thread are pretty decent actually, but that whole thing is pretty Kek. Some pro level foot shooting.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Hybrid woes aside. SK as it was had a pretty clear class fantasy, that a lot of people were into. Edgy boi and undead bro with spooky necro powers and a big 2h that's gonna cower your ass into running away while they beat you down. New version may or may not be cool, we'll have to see. But...

    The Fighting Game Community Thread

    This has been in the works for awhile. Sadly, I think Daigo is probably gonna get smoked. He hasn't been a real top level contender for quite some time, and Mena has been racking up like, all the wins, for the past few years. And I'm not super super up to date with sf6 patches, but pretty sure...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Yeah it's hard to really see where they are going off of flavor text without some tangible examples. Many such cases. I'm down for Elric vibes, but witcher and blu mage sound gay as fuck. At least they kept them 2h. Losing the utility/drama of our goober pet is gonna sting. And more...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I can't see it sticking around at all. They mentioned potency adjustments etc for it, but I can't imagine they'll keep 2 completely different sets of abilites going forward. Eg the dots for DRG and BRD shown in evolved mode. If the reborn mode is really what we're used to- those would both be...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah getting rid of the rote burst windows seems like an overdue change. The downsync complaints were rarely about the 50+ dungeons. It was getting stuffed into satasha at 20 or whatever if you didn't have an ae attack yet.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah, obviously it's stil being hammered out. Just seems like a weird gap. I kind of wish they had compared the reborn bard setup to the evolved one. Like the evolved bard demo, the dot was like 3 ticks. Dot flavor indeed? I assumed they skyrocket the potency to match. But is the og one...

    meta is gonna be the meta- but that's contrary to their statement about everything being able to be cleared by both. I just think it's a weird edge case that could be solved by having that split apply to both modes. Seemed to have worked out with the healer split more or less.

    You think they'll require savage to be in evolved mode?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Hmm perhaps. Seems a bit counter to the pseudo casual entreaties. But on the other hand, if you are in reborn mode there would be no reason to switch because the distinction doesn't apply. I'm conflicted about the ilevel thing. I've never felt the need to have every role/job maxed out so I...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yea i get that. But the implication is that if you only have say a gunblade and a war- one of them should switch to reborn mode to better fill that aspect. Probably not needed in anything but ultimate modes- but there's some weird friction in it not applying to both modes.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Interesting. Somewhat unexpected that war isn't in the main grouping. Although it apparently only applies to evolved mode. Which is kind of extra hurting my brain.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I'm not immediately hating evolved modes for what they've shown off. But OG control players probably will be seeing the end of the road. Especially if they're going to lag behind the new vision. 2min buffs are gone. Interesting.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    underdocks is the bad side of NH- not everyone will be able to start topside when they get around to setting the factions up. 4? zones for chars starting at NH to spread out in is pretty decent. I'm not gonna complain about the DE and DG being in at EA by anymeans. I wonder when they'll get...

    Sounds like it was more to deal with evac shenangins than what we would normally call leashing. Like it has to be far enough away from you to that it wouldn’t load in your client normally. Remains to be seen exactly how it works.

    Hero Siege

    Interesting. I picked it up for $3. Seems fairly amusing, and some of the usual arpg suspects have been playing it on twitch lately. Seems good for the price for sure, but definitely grind athon vibes lurking at the edge. Not that we can easily play whatever old version you have, but what's...

    They're pretty good. But not having an actual band vs 2 keyboard dudes is a bit wrong.

    For some reason his VA kept sounding like Malkovich doing a super calm villain spiel to me Until he finally lost his shit anyway. Still great couple of episodes.

    PVP degens get their own lotto. Doesn't grant access to the pve servers- but eh. They're spending some amount of effort on those servers, so might as well get more feedback and metrics from them too.

    There will be at least 1 maybe 2 more open play session before EA, if you haven't gotten a chance to check it out at all yet. No dates that i've seen tho.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Yeah the stat impact is definitely off currently. More so for caster stats, but aside from maybe dex the melee stats are kinda unimpactful too. That appears to be being worked on re: itemization as a whole. We'll have to see how that goes. The enchanter example was definitely designed that...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Yeah i didn't get into the weeds with wiz, but i know about the missles. Autists are waaay in the weeds with the math on it. Complainers gonna complain though, but there's a contingent of wizards that are in the same camp as clerics. It's better than being forced into melee, but if you...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That's an interesting line to pursue. Wizards are kind of in the same boat. You'd have to finagle a med skill malus to juggle it not being absolutely required though. I can't help but think a lot of these more active/melee playstyles would probably be better suited to the skill specialization...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Yeah. We'll get new servers for the new races if you want a "fresh start." That's about it. Gobbos and gnomes being awesome aside, future races have options that I would easily choose instead. Seeing deep gnome animation teases makes them look so fun.

    Ea is gonna be a couple years long. They’ll be in ea . Just not at launch. Gobbies are great. Their fd flop and cry make me giggle. Easily best option for sk currently.

    They need to embiggen their weapons a tad. Their 2h are about the same size as a human 1h. Which seems wrong given their height. My main beef with them.

    DE and DG are module 1. Trolls are module 2. At one point i heard HE are with the trolls, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I know there have been test models created for the lizzards, and Zukan is gungho on them. I'd personally guess they come in with or after trolls. Deep...
