    The Fast Food Thread

    I mentioned them a ways back. Mine were dried out and all the filling was dried to the inside of the hard, nasty crust. The chocolate one was marginally more "fresh" but they were both so tiny that for the cost I will never buy them again even if they are perfectly made. The scale on that pic...

    I got 50 and 2 AAs last night, and you guys are right, the game really opens up once you hit 50. Just having another dps in the group makes a ton of difference, not to mention that refresh ability. Now I'm regretting trashing all that wizard gear. I'm thinking I could swap out the druid for...

    The Odyssey (2026)

    Wait wait wait. Is the epitome of martial prowess (Achilles) really being played by Ellen fucking Page?? Well, all the people that I've been telling this movie is shit because of Black Helen, and still defended it, won't have a leg to stand on after this revelation.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    This isn't so much a rustle of my jimmies, since it didn't happen to me, but a completely computer illiterate coworker's wife had her laptop fall prey to the Windows Bitlocker update fiasco. Try explaining to two people that barely know how to get to Facebook that their laptop is just a big...

    Post Your Pet

    There are thousands of cats in shelters/pounds looking for homes. The SPCA is just a few miles from my work, and so far 3 of the 4 cats I've owned have come from there and been amazing. One of them, about 10 years ago, was $40 to adopt (I hear it is $60 now). They called me back later that...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Who? Do I have it? Do you have it? Does your neighbor have it? At the very least, does some billion dollar company have it being used to transport people/goods more cost effectively? Until then, we don't "have it."

    I still am not quite to 50 yet so I haven't encountered veteran level gameplay, but it almost seems like this game could be an auto-battler, to be honest. Every merc does a decent job of filling their role, while none of them are amazing or as good as a real player. A cleric heals great, but...

    I'm hoping to hit 50 this weekend but I'm at 47 and yeah, it really starts to slog, even with xp potions. Without them...fuck me. I almost want to just grind somewhere easier and not worry about the loot, but that loot is so enticing. The only good xp in the Twisted Haunt are the bosses...

    I can't answer all of your questions right now, so hopefully someone else comes along and has the time. However, as I said in earlier posts, I don't feel that the "solo MMO" description is completely accurate, especially in terms of EQ. While I understand that Ultima Online was an MMO (I...

    It is weird that "hold" doesn't make them immobile forever. When I pull a mob in, they all move slightly, especially the warrior. You'd think they would just stay in one spot. However, it does seem to prevent them from moving 30 feet away just to cast that heal like they were doing before...

    Heroes of Might And Magic Olden Era

    Thankfully I bought my 64gb last year before the prices went up. A virtual machine can easily use 8gb. A particularly girthy Minecraft modpack can recommend 10-12gb. My too many tabs open can easily eat up a few more. That's not counting W11 itself and any other applications I might want to...

    Have you done any of the Fabled mobs? I would imagine you might be able to at least do that one in the mines, as I only lost because I ran out of mana way too early. With that refresh veteran ability you could probably take that guy easily. No idea about any of the other ones.

    Jesus Christ that V key is what I've been waiting for. Why does my fucking cleric need to move out of the room to heal the tank? They don't move far enough to avoid aoes, so it just pulls adds. Too bad I sold all my potions because I didn't need the lesser versions, or any rage potions at...

    I've been wondering about that series. Thanks for the review. Speaking of editing, I've read at least 2 different series in the past month or so that uses "grizzly" when it should be "grisly." One isn't even litrpg, but I'm guessing it is still an indie publication.

    Yeah, I did the other 3 and figured why not get this quest off my list. Nope, had to run away after the tank died. This was at around level 40, but I definitely don't see it happening anytime soon. I'm 45 I think right now, there's no way. EDIT: Although...I think maybe it scales per your...

    I unwittingly teleported into a Fabled area with no way out. It was in the Abandoned Mines, and there were a ton of adds. I actually killed all the adds and the warrior was handling the Fabled, but he had something like 150k hps and my cleric and druid ran out of mana when it was maybe 130k...

    Nah, they haven't explained anything, but there have been a few flashback scenes where he's in some sort of program and everyone else fails/dies/gets killed and he's the only one left. Still, even if he was subjected to some horrible torture training that made him superior to everyone else...

    This isn't current anime, but I don't know if there is any better place to ask. I am currently watching season 2 of Classroom of the Elite. I like the premise (I'm a sucker for school settings), but the main character is such a smug yet bored all the time and also way smarter than everyone...

    Totally unrelated, they need to make a command for your mercs to stand still. Them running around during a fight or following along as you pull is the #1 reason for party wipes. Why does my cleric need to run around during a fight? Sure, if he's nuking he gets backstab bonus damage from the...

    I played Erenshor for a few hours, and I liked it and intend to go back to it once I'm tired of this one. Erenshor is the true EQ experience, because you can have someone go pull stuff and bring it back to the party, everyone does their job properly (including enchanters, which is fucking...

    I found a fungal necklace I think, gave +3 health regen. Worthless when everyone has thousands of hps, but still fun to see. Might have dropped from a giant mushroom too, but I've killed so many mushrooms/spiders/trolls in that dungeon that I can't remember.

    I went ranger because I thought I'd just sit back and plink while my mercs did everything. I kinda still do, but unless it is a tough fight I just melee instead, because fuck buying arrows. So stupid. Granted, they are cheap and they stack to 9999, but like most of us I hoard shit like...

    As you've likely already found out, it was a lot easier when you hired another merc at 30. I'm currently camping Vexxna for her backpack drop. Killed her like 10 times now and nothing. Made all the molds for my mercs at least, but I want that fucking bag! Just like EQ/UO. Apparently there...

    They have to toe the line between believability and too many specifics. It's like those doomsday cults that were vague for years but then went all in on a specific date. When that date came and went, they lost what little credibility they might have had. If these guys get too specific it is a...
