    Black Desert

    Started trying to get my Kzarka and Bhegs up to DUO (they were both unenchanted). I had a nice stockpile of mem frags and though it might last a while... Nope all gone in 20 minutes!

    The only insane property tax is stamp duty (tax on buying a property) which would be ~$100k on a $2mil property. Once you own it ongoings are very low, there isn't even any land tax, just council rates to cover things like garbage collection and other council services. But anyway, people don't...

    Renting can be a better option depending on the market. In Sydney for example, you can rent a house in a reasonable suburb for $7-800/week. Buying the same house would cost $2mil, or over $2000/week just in interest alone. Renting and investing the thousands per month difference in cost in the...

    They're probably ~4th edition WFB Undead -> kill the general and the whole army crumbles.

    Picked up +5 Bheg's for 150mil on preorder. Saw 2 or 3 go before I got one.. I think pre-order of odd enchantment levels and night vendor are definitely the two best ways of getting boss armour.

    yep once you've got a spare 100 mil or more start checking the night vendor regularly for boss pieces. 150 mil or so for kzarka, 300 mil ish for dandelion.

    Depends on your class really but your mainhand weapon should be your main focus. You should probably try to get a Liverto which are pretty cheap these days, although for some classes Liverto is considered worse than green weapons I think. I'm 56 and have been for a very long time (because I die...

    You wouldn't see Heve or Grunil by 20. At level 20 your gear doesn't matter. Just have fun and enjoy the ride. by the time you've got to 50 you should research what kind of gear you want to focus on in the meantime. I went with grunil and are in fact still using it because boss armour doesn't...

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    The best possible bladerunner we're going to get we already got in 1992 when the director's cut of bladerunner was released. But I get what you're saying. I'll be there in the first week in cinemas to watch this for sure.

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    I dunno. The trailers are great and all, but I can't help but think that there's nothing that this movie can possibly add.. Honestly, watching them just makes me want to watch blade runner again. I mean I'll watch this and hope for the best but I don't expect much.

    Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne

    Was the last rts I played seriously as well. Really was (is?) a fantastic game. I played a huge variety of tactics. Favourite was probably heavy early hero/archer harassment while i teched up for a druid of the claw rush. Loved those bears who could heal themselves.

    yeah Livestream stuff so far: just dumping my notes (anyone can trade, Elite dungeons, guaranteed dungeon loot, increase AP/SP at 50) • r/SecretWorldLegends thumbs up across the board really.. looks like they've actually been looking at what people are saying about it on reddit.

    Have to be careful where you loop horses outside safe zones, people will knock you off and drag you into aggro mobs if they can, so you come back from AFK to broken gems and xp loss.

    Sorc is ok in PvP, it's a shame they didn't remove the nerfs to Scythe though.. they made some big nerfs because a lot of classes didn't have awakenings yet, and now that all classes have awakenings they didn't bring the scythe back to where it was.

    The Secret World

    Yeah I feel that they have partially ruined one of TSW's strongest selling points - the skillwheel. The lore/story/atmosphere is still good. I'm enjoying it though.. the new itemization system is interesting, not sure if it's better or worse than the old one.. The way items drop really needs...

    I wanted to go Chaos/Blade since I want a melee tank and aren't too fond of hammer.. picked demolisher (since chaos/blade isn't a starting option), after the tutorial finished and I got to kingsmouth I claimed my TSW stuff which unlocked every weapon, found a nice chaos weapon from a boss loot...

    Try disabling your AV. I had crash issues and it was caused by trend micro fighting with XignCode.

    It should have the same class openness as you can choose any weapon combination and has a somewhat similar active/passive system. I only just finished downloading it so haven't had a chance to try it yet.

    It's worthwhile solo. There aren't really any group mechanics in BDO, when you play with other people it's more like playing in the vicinity of other players. There's no limitation on what you can do without other players. If you go to kill a world boss by yourself, there will be dozens of other...

    The benefits of Steam Recent Review "Justice"

    They're only rolling back the price changes after the summer sale ends - they claim because of some steam limitation. And plan to "try" to refund or donate the difference to the UNHCR.

    If everyone wasn't obsessed with the maximum cash returns and so only grinding at pirates and sausans then they'd have a lot more fun in the game IMO. I haven't been to either of those in more than a month and am having more fun than ever. And I have *never* seen anyone else grinding at Cadry...

    Due to the influx of people recently and that afk fishing is good money for a new player there are now a lot more people selling to the imperial trader, and so they are sold out almost constantly. I have been selling to the normal trader most of my AFK sessions the last week or so as the...
