I almost can't imagine there being an EQ summit today where 50 uberguilders are invited out to give input on the game. The game was so much bigger back then. Tecknoe was first as I recall, as well. Way after the 52 cap was added. Naggy was being one-grouped by 60's when the cap was added...

This was on Vaniki which wasn't random loot, if you want an FBSS it's only gonna drop at Frenzy. But yeah, on Teek, they mix named loot pools together with similar-leveled named loot pools. This makes it harder to target specific items, and tends to result in lots of junk dropping, but also...

Is Picard S2 worth watching? I've determined that I did indeed see the end of S1 and stopped after that. It'd be a little weird to jump to S3 where all the actual good TNG content is, unless S2 is very skippable. It's short, at least. Also I still have like 35 DS9 episodes so I shouldn't even...

Xenogears should have been remade ages ago. It's one of the greatest sci-fi epic RPGs of all time, maybe THE greatest. It's also trapped on PS1, with archaic-looking 3D graphics (that were really nice / ahead of their time in 1998, at least). I've never played another game with story/lore/etc...

I finished this game a couple times. What I would do is consolidate all the most powerful characters into the first, second, and third units. The most powerful would go in the first, then second, etc. I wasn't trying to balance them or anything. Then I'd leave units 2 and 3 guarding the base...

Trek is at its best when it's thoughtfully predicting the future (the best version of the future) with things like "we created replicators, so hunger was eliminated from the world" and holodecks replacing movies - making for an entertainment medium that requires people to think more, AND makes...

Most of the white guys are the "previous generation", the stodgy Olds that are on their way out, while the fresh-faced young recruits are way more...Diverse. This same trope plays out over and over again and it always strikes me as an allegory of Biden and Kamala. The whole objective of that...

I feel the same way. Elden Ring, Bloodborne, and Bioshock are probably my three favorite post-2000 games, and none of them enchant me the way a bunch of things did in the 1990's. Things like Chrono, FFT, FF4/6/7/9, Xenogears, Super Mario 64. So it's really hard for me to compare modern games to...

I was mostly looking at the scene where they have all the Starfleet Academy cadets assembled in one place. One of the reviews I watched of the show said something like "finding a white guy in this academy is like Where's Waldo", so I paraphrased it. That one scene is all I was looking at. The...

Wonder if Metroid 6 is going to give us more of Metroid Suit Samus. It's fugly, but it sure is powerful. Actually, the power level is so busted that they'll have to find a way to nerf it quick. I think the X Parasite is done. They never did that much for me. Sure they're creepy, and both Fusion...

Gaiden is basically "Yakuza 7". It's designed to be the parallel story to Like A Dragon, which was sorta Yakuza 7 but not really and definitely not called that. LAD 2: Infinite Wealth is also Yakuza 8. After LAD dropped, they realized that people still wanted more of Kiryu's story, so they made...

Chrono Trigger is possibly the best video game of all time*. Probably the best video game of the 20th century, almost definitely the best Super NES game of all time. If it gets remade, they really just need to enhance it to HD2D like some of the other recent remakes. Spruce up the dialogue to...

Grand Theft Auto 4 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS3. Metal Gear Solid 4 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS3. Dragon Quest 8 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS2 (well, the only good version anyway). Bloodborne needs to be remastered with 60 FPS; it's...

Never saw this, heard it's like a 0/10 level movie. My first thought looking at the poster... is this a Mirror Universe movie? No? It's a Starfleet movie? Nu Trek really is full of horrible people who dress in black outfits and treat other people like garbage. We don't even need a Mirror...

Oh I don't care about the currency stuff even though it's what that video was talking about. I'm just mad about the disrespect shown to the captain's chair. And the glasses. And the obese women at a fucking military training facility. Trying to find an actual white man in the crowd at the...

I'm gonna be playing Fallout 2 in the very near future (only game out of 1-4 + NV that I never played). If anyone has any suggestions on builds or anything like that. Was FO2 particularly well-received? It seems a lot nicer-looking and more streamlined than FO1. IIRC a lot of folks were miffed...

Tell that to the guy on Vaniki who lost some DPS races to me and spent THREE DAYS flipping out about me in general channels to the point that he got suspended for disturbing the peace, then logged on with a different account and did the same thing with the same results. When I logged back on I...

So they basically added Gameshark codes to FF7 Remake's options menu. Jesus. It's bad enough that Square's new HD2D remakes all seem to have a toggle-able invincibility mode, which pretty much kills any need to actually put in any serious work on micromanaging your party. Why bother leveling up...
