    Path of Exile

    Mines and traps are.......a trap. They can be uber powerful, but like totems they are definitely a distinct play-style choice. I've done a couple over the years and despise the playstyle; every time one comes up meta I try it and wince my way to 90 and then bail. Then again, I love totems, so...

    There isn't a single, halfward intelligent person on this fucking planet that didn't know this was exactly what was going to happen. It is all a giant racket.

    Seconded. I've started EA ballista for like 4, maybe 5 leagues now. Can do everything up to Uber bosses; and can do them if you are patient. It's actually tankier this league than previous. I was doing high yellow tier maps easy peasy on a 4L. Reds easy on a 5L. I just bought a fully...

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    I'm just assuming the whole movie is a vehicle to show the Joker having delusions of musical numbers starring Lady Gaga. Do not want.

    Don't judge your pace by some of the PoE autists that post here, in the same way you should not expect to craft anything remotely similar to what they post. Not knocking the autism, I actually respect it. Some days I wish I had the energy to poop-sock group leveling strategies to 100 or spend...

    Path of Exile

    I dunno, league still seems kinda meh. It is purely personally anecdotal but I haven't had much drop to speak of. That being said, I am definitely biased against crafting leagues, so this league would lose half it's rating with me just based on that. It has no hook, no pizazz. Tell me there...

    Also, my Heists are bugged. About half the time the NPC appears on the opposite side of the door to do the unlocking. If I move away and they teleport back to me, sometimes it fixes it. But I got stuck in a room where I could not move far enough away to reset the NPC, and I just had to log...

    Path of Exile

    I will say, anecdotally, that this is the first league I dropped 2 divines before the campaign was done. One was a high 40s Heist, the other just a campaign zone. Still effing around in low maps at the moment so no real opinion on the advanced stuff as yet. I do not expect to see ronne levels...

    You know the crafting is poor if, even while early leveling, I did not make a single rare that I could use lol. I am no crafter in this game, but I actually tried to stack some beneficial effects and nada. Not even randomly good rares. Also, maintaining consistency GGG has overtuned those...

    Path of Exile

    Well, in the end, since I generally enjoy the game for what it is in general, I guess I am playing to see the base mechanics they changed. I know I have a capable build, so it is basically taking a tour around a town I know where they changed a few streets. I doubt I will be getting to level...

    Yeah, is it just me or is this league just kind of boring. Crafting leagues are usually slower, and after the last league, this one is just a bit of a fart in the wind.

    As per our agreement, PoE will drop lots of linked items for me, but never my desired armor type or color. It's like a fun mini-game. Edit - Also, Path of Building won't update for me, it says I have no connection to the internet. Anyone else having issues?

    Man, hard to believe how long I have been involved with this game: I used to post in their forum as well, haven't in probably 4 years. Their forum had more trolls of lesser quality than FoH. Actually looking forward to a new league start.

    Yeah, I said earlier that I was kind of doubting they could really encapsulate the power of the books into a series. And you, and the rest of the posts, are confirming this. I have not watched any of it yet, not sure I will. Edit - and there is a LOT of Chinese history written in, with the...

    Hrm, doing a Chieftain RF build is inviting. I did inquis RF for several leagues but didn't like being squishy and having to be too close to the boss. The EA totem build is an easy bosser and decent clear speed, but I also like a one button (fire trap) RF walkathon build as well.

    Welp, looks like EA Ballista for yet another league for me. Got him to level 98 this league with mostly casual play, surprisingly. The one issue is that there seems to be a real damage hard-cap that you can't pass even with high investment. I mean, I can do everything up to Uber bosses, and...

    Trying To Remember a Dungeon Crawl Game From The Early Years

    Thing is, I owned an Amiga, but it was well after that. I bought my first PC in 1995 so it had to be after that. It was PC, and it was bought from a website and mailed on CD. And you are right about all the unlicensed crap - that may be a problem. It wasn't ascii and it wasn't a roguelike.

    It was part of the whole series. Understanding the Dark Forest theory, is, essentially, how the humans fought back - trying to be vague and non spoilery here. There was a TON of shit on dimensional theory, I wonder how the show is going to handle all that.

    I have no concept how Netflix could possibly do these books justice in a series, but I am willing to give them a chance. I suspect I will be disappointed quickly, but I will TRY to stay objective. The books weren't the most entertaining I have ever read, but I will say they were probably the...
