    Lol, really? You don't see it in the last few pages? Ok man.

    Fallout 76

    I just find another example of the hyper outrage culture that sprung up in recent years funny. The Reeeeeeeeeeeeeee is endlessly entertaining.

    Fallout 76

    Hah, it's hilarious to watch the pile on happening in this game. People coming out of the woodwork just to join the bandwagon and signal their gaming virtue. Mass psychosis is a glorious thing to see. Thanks for giving.

    Lol, nerd rage in all it's glory.

    Fallout 76

    Lol, I remember raging against the internet, the world and anyone within arm reach when they nerfed Disease Cloud in EQ. Suddenly my SK couldn't generate any hate, so I took it out on everyone. I look back on that time whenever some new changes to pixels impels me to nuke mankind.

    Fallout 76

    Yeah, there is definitely massive dislike for this game. Especially from the Fallout fans. My brother has played every version of Fallout multiple times, done all the mods, etc (he's also a big Morrowind mod fan). He wouldn't even buy the game or try the beta. Mumbled something about pvp when I...

    Fallout 76

    Not depressing at all actually, just a fact of life when you have a few years behind you, but I am always looking for new experiences. The problem is that the new games (movies, etc) are just retreads of the old games with minor tweeks. Been there, done that. Give me something new and I'll be...

    Fallout 76

    Yeah, I know this is hard for the hard cores to understand but I didn't think Fallout 3 or 4 were that all that great either. Only played them a few days also. Imo, 99.99999 percent of the games out there are mediocre. If they only provide me with a few days of mindless fun then I'm fine with...

    Fallout 76

    60 bucks is less than I spend on a night out drinking. I just don't give a fuck, as long as I get a few nights of enjoyment out of the game, it will be worth it. And if Fallout 76 eventually dies, I couldn't care less. These big budget games need more than drive-by's like me to make their...

    Fallout 76

    I'm not a die hard Fallout fan. Just a drive by. I have nothing to disappointed in. The game as is, is fun for me. And since I'll be done with this game in a few weeks, my money doesn't matter. They need the die hard fans to buy in or it will fail. Drive by's don't pay the bills, there aren't...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    We disagree on WoW and I'm not interested in having that discussion. Wasn't the point I was trying to make. Mmo players (and gamers) will play a game if it's fun, engaging and tags their personal ocd requirements. And just as important, it's the new thing. A lot of people play(ed) WoW just...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I think you haven't been keeping up with WoW's problems. Sub losses since BFA are too recent to be reflected in last quarter's earnings. Those earning reflect BFA's box sales, which were great. Next quarter will show most of the issues since the sub losses are very recent and ongoing. Just check...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Yeah. You haven't been keeping up with BFA's problems. Those financials don't reflect the loss of subs since BFA released. BFA was a PR bait and switch and isn't doing well at all now. WoW still has a ton of subs, but they are not even close to the 10 million plus they use to have. Closer to...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    No doubt they have to deliver. Or it will be like Vanguard (or more recently BFA). Lots of box (now digital) sales and tons of returns. I was just pointing out that they have a rare opportunity because of the lack of competition from western developers for the next 2 or 3 years.

    Fallout 76

    Video games were somewhat killed by the people that fork over for microtransactions and P2W mechanics. Basically Asia. But mainly video games were killed by the butt love that die hard fans give to companies that made a few good games up front. Blizzard / Bethesda etc think they can do no wrong...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Assuming it gets launched, Pantheon may win just because of the lack of competition for new mmos. What other mmos (not asian) are coming out in the next few years? Ashes of Creation and? I don't count Crowfall, Camelot or the Amazon offering, they're pvp centric. Different audiences. It's taken...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Oh, they should so make that happen. The drama would be epic. Every healer in the game would quit.

    Torchlight III

    Had a lot of fun with these games, kind of my first ARPGs. Lite and breezy art style and a fun world. I like PoE too, it's the other end of the spectrum, art style and depth. Never could get into D3 for some reason.

    Fallout 76

    Still having fun with it. The scavenger hunting tags my ocd, the mobs die while in my face and I see other players around and we occasionally kill stuff together (single player games bore me). But I'm an easy mark for gaming companies. Get a few days of enjoyment out of a game and that's good...

    Path of Exile

    Too funny. Just started playing this again (yeah the Diablo fiasco brought me there). Hadn't played in a couple years. Game is definitely better than I remembered. And this expansion title, etc is fukn hilarious. Great time to find PoE again.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Worked in the biz for a few years. After the initial excitement wears off, it's just a job like any other job. Worse actually. The pay sucks, the hours suck and the people who make creative decisions are usually ego driven and bad managers. The people in the longest have mortgages, kids and...

    WoW is turning into a subscription game with a F2P fuck you microtransaction model. The worst of all worlds.

    Guild Wars 2

    Not sure how good Silverwastes is for making gold, but I have been there to farm shovels recently (guild hall upgrades). Saturday is the best day for Silverwastes. Grab a taxi off in LFG. Usually at least one map farming chests and / or events there. Sunday works also. Event chains in HoT are...

    Guild Wars 2

    PoF masteryies come pretty quick while you are playing. The raptor and griffon are the mounts that get the most use so I maxed those fairly early. Still haven't finished the beetle track. No hurry. The only HoT masteries I focused on were things like mushroom jumping, the poison debuff, max...

    Fallout 76

    Totally burnt on mmo's atm, especially the fantasy type. So much so that I bought this game without checking reviews or this site. Played Fallout 3 and 4 a bit, didn't really get very far in either. But the mmo landscape is bleak atm. Having fun in the beta. Seems like Fallout 4 to me but...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They needed server merges years ago. Blizzard just doesn't want the bad press that would come from it. That's the only reason it doesn't happen, cowardice. I have toons stuck on low pop servers (they were high pop years ago) and their cross realm tech sucks. Not paying them to server transfer...

    WTF? A total ban? Without giving him the option to change the name? ANET has gone full retard again.

    Guild Wars 2

    I think ArcDps is the one most players use. Should research it a bit though, pretty sure ANET is fine with ArcDps but it's a use at your own risk thing. Even WvW servers will be going away soon eventually. Alliances are being worked on which will give ANET more control over WvW populations...

    Guild Wars 2

    Just a heads up. They just changed (Oct 30) Legendary Weapons to be like Legendary Armor. You now don't lose sigils or infusions when you change stats. Have almost a full set of legendary armor and it's really cool not losing runes, etc. But I only have 2 legendary weapons because it just...

    Guild Wars 2

    Farm hero points for HoT and PoF elites. Doesn't matter where (Core, HoT, or PoF) you get them, they all count. But hero points in Core are only worth 1, while those in HoT and PoF are worth 10 each. For my characters I usually get all the easy points in HoT, skipping the hard champions unless a...

    Guild Wars 2

    Aye level in HoT zones. 3 separate mastery bars. Base game, HoT and PoF. Base game and PoF are easier max out than HoT. HoT takes a bit because there are so many different mastery choices. But HoT has a lot of popular event chains.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'd be curious to see the average age of current WoW subscibers. It can't be a low number. And that's not a knock on WoW. But a lot of kids (and even those in their 20's) don't even have PC's and it doesn't bother them. They do everything on mobile.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Love the tech and videos, hate the cost of ships. I've said it before, just don't see how this game won't be pay to win. They claim that you will be able to earn everything in game, but if you can get a $450 dollar ship in game in only a few days of farming then there are going to be some very...

    New World

    PvP players are what kill PvP mmos. The good players and bandwagoners get organized and terrorize the casuals and solo players. Which is to be expected. But the casuals and solo players don't care about what's expected, and they don't have any interest in getting organized or good. So they quit...

    Shadow of the Mad King - the Halloween festival starts today. This and the Wintersday festival are pretty good. And usually a good way to farm xp and gold. Plus the unique skins, etc.

    Guild Wars 2

    Depends on what you want to do. Endgame PvE is raiding, fractals or just event farming. There is PvP or WvW (and of course fashion wars). Each tends to have their own builds to work on. If you haven't already found it, Metabattle.com is what most people use to get started on builds and then...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Mileage will vary. WoW is a very successful game with millions of players so invested in their characters that they are loath to see how far it has fallen. But from the outside looking in, WoW has not aged well. Imo and as a casual, 7.3.1. is a huge mistake, bigger than BFA's fuckups. The next...

    Crowdfunded then. Point is that they are in a similar situation as the other small team mmos and updates are very few and far between. Mmo's require a massive amount of man hours to make. Even big studios take years to complete them.
