Yep, and that's nothing to do with actually levelling Archaeology and everything with the tiny random chance of actually getting those projects. You'll be 600 well before you see any of those. If you do... don't ever play lottery, you've exhausted your lifetime chance storage.

Yup, same here. I got booted to screen two or three times, and there's times where quest don't seem to update, then 15-20s later, they do.

Yep. Example:Hexweave Leggingsare BOE, and so are theHexweave EssenceandGreater Hexweave Essenceto upgrade them.Hexweave Embroiderylet's you reroll the random stat picked for secondary bonus. So once you've crafted it, you can equip straight away, and wait until you have enough to craft the...

The big difference between your own and not your own tradeskill building is that you don't absolutely need the building at level 3 to make epics. Also, you can only craft the starter ilvl 640 epics; you can't make the upgrades to ilvl 665, and you'll have to purchase those on the AH. And that...

Karana was the so-called "french" server. Tunare had a sizeable general euro component, plus the inevitable Asians. (Tunarean here, old man of Tide, the main euro-guild. I still remember the rivalries with Talisman and Stars)

I presume at least half the playing population has yet to hear about the stat squish.

5 weeks. Since you haven't played since LK, you might want to come back a week or so before launch so that you can explore a bit Cata and Pandaria. Depending on how hardcore you play, I'd count 30h of /played per char for 80-90 (profession leveling not included). And you have one free bump to...

Well, that part can be done without managing the Garrison. Go garrison, accept daily, get apexis. (unless I've missed some work orders to get more daily apexis?)

Basically, your two large buildings should be the Barracks and the Bunker/War Mill, your two medium must be the Inn and Barn, and two out of your three smalls must be Salvage Yard and Storehouse (with a choice of the last to be for one of your main or an alt profession). You can sacrifice...

Justice Divine. (just swap the two words for the english translation) Not the best liked guild among the french, but it managed sometimes to get stuff done. The friend who brought me back my box from the US had a first month bill when he came back in France of over half of his monthly...

Tell that to the old-style champion trains. Ah, so it's loot, but not loot you're interested in (but apparently, plenty of people are looking for champion bags). Hence my mention "GW2... with end-game".

Yup. There's nothing to do until maybe a day before exp launch, when you can resub, clear your bank clutter, and be camped at the Redder (more Red than Dark!) Portal (or wherever the intro quest line starts) for the next day.

Yea. "Don't defend this spot! The retaking event has a champion with loot!" /em watches as players keep on slaughtering attackers The EQN version of it sounds a bit better because it is slower to change, and more unpredictable. But the unpredictability means that "guard job" is not a good...

GW2 with well-defined roles and an end-game. Done.

You did not recognize a Pantheon screenshot?

Anything over lvl 50 is forever, below it's basically 1 or 3 months.

Lots of money will buy you a demo. A demo, apparently, did not give you lots of money.

Let's call it Team 666, and send them to destroy Pantheon!

So they still have the team, but they totally nuked the original concept rather than last years' "we're going to redo the design". They just have to find a new game to make.

Paid a trailer's worth of banknotes for Tyrion to sound bored mouthing his speeches?

Probably going to talk about Heroes of the Storm and the first "real" expansion to Hearthstone.

Yea, I supposed they don't think sandbox Minecraftesque MMOs are ready for general use yet. Even if Microsoft spends 2.5 billion $ purchasing Minecraft and thinks they can make it back by next year.

He's a priest. What did you expect? It's always the healer's fault.

Well, you do beat him in the novel. It's just that Varian shows up and decides to take him prisoner for judgement instead of executing on the spot. I bet he's a bit pissed at not taking the easy option now (or rather, in november).

It's Christie Golden. Not whatsisname... my brain refuses to remember him... Knaak... Of course it's readable.

Just like every obsolete content. It'll lie there, fallow, unused and all that. As usual, once an expansion hits, all the previous content is considered obsolete. Can't do Ordos? Why would you do Ordos at level 100? (note that the "for transmog" has an answer with the Garrison, apparently)

Flying will be enabled "eventually".

And even then, it doesn't make sense to have it as a major objective "for the expansion". The only difference between your quest blue cloak and the legendary cloak is whether it's going to be replaced after 1 hour or 1 day of /playing. Ok, maybe 2 days. It's core design for WoW that no gear...

Oh, I've not doubt theorycrafters are going to figure out skill combos for your class. Which, by the way, can't be obtained by levelling or grinding skill points; you actually have to get the appropriate class (variable difficulty), then raise it to tier 5. And then figure out why your...

Yea. Like, "collect all 18 ascended crated armors to get an exotic item reward" (that costs like 20g on the TP, not even a Legendary precursor). Not that it stopped some items in other collections going from 8g on Monday to 400g today.

I fully expect tier 5 unlock to be "participate in a Rallying Cry". Want 12 classes at tier 5? Need to wait until you do 12 rallying cries. Or tears.

That sounds contradictory. If you have an objective, you can measure your objective progression, and call that a linear progression. I got the impression that the tier progression was not fungible: it was distinct, specific steps that you needed. You need of course to complete tier 2 before...

It's linear, but in a 40-dimension space. You have 40 different classes that you can collect and improve to tier 5, each independently. Quite unlike WoW where there's exactly one direction for the one class you selected, and each talent for each spec is handed simultaneously.

It's different with GW2. GW2 took the opposite idea of having "low level content" become irrelevant to high level characters. You can entirely skip a newbie zone, and then come back at 80, do it, and you get reasonably good rewards from it. This is why, every two hours like clockwork, hordes of...

It's not. Because apparently, tiers are not fungible. You can't grind mobs from tier 1 to tier 5; you need to achieve different things to unlock your tiers. You can't move from grinding level 10 raptors to level 20 raptors to level, each tier has completely different activities tied to it. Their...

Except for the last one, you seem to consider the EQ's implementation of rare loot, content access, leveling curve, dependance, unbeatable enemies at appropriate level, long travel time and obscure quests as good, while Draegan said explicitly "and better". What you consider good features was...

That's because at no point did you feel like you could be blocked or fail it. In fact, before you started, you already knew that, barring giving up, you would finish it. You didn't had to guess, you even knew that you didn't really need help or anything. (this is why VT key quest felt like a...

Levels are not a problem, they're a simplistic solution. What - a fairly large subset of - people want is progression, that's marked by their ability to do stuff that they can't do at first. In a roleplay-based combat game, where your character is what fights (rather than a mere avatar thru...

I think it's high time someone pointed out that Steam Greenlight is a massive failure. It's basically the Amazon school of though for books, applied to games. The idea that editors/distributors aren't needed, and foist off their most useful job (vetting professional productions/manuscripts...

The great thing with the Legendary cloak is that anyone could have a legendary-quality item. The bad thing with the Legendary cloak is that it was expected that anyone have a legendary-quality item.
