Every year or so I read a thread about LASIK (like this one!) in the hope that something has developed. My issue is that while my vision is somewhat weak, my main problem is astigmatism. I get pretty rough astigmatism headaches if I don't wear glasses. Seems like LASIK for astigmatism has...

I hope it ends with a Lodizal Shell Shield. Eagerly awaiting the release!

Just got a promo email from B&N offering preorder on a signed Words of Radiance hardcover. Very excited that it's coming out, but I wish they'd just skip to the fat paperbacks that I like to read instead of all the pricey fancies

This whole thing turned out way better than I expected. Instead of rationing the pie, they significantly increased the size of the pie. This would be a problem in an ordinary situation and EQ timeline, as it would lead to inflation, but P99 is already massively inflated due to the extended...

This. It's fucking creepy.

Am looking forward to giving this a shot. Never played DAOC the first time around, as I was in an every-night Eq raiding guild, but I hear nothing but happy nostalgia stories from people.

what are those from?

Just started Gardens of the Moon. Loving it so far. Quite different.

None of this solves the server's underlying problem, which is that it has been in Kunark 2 years too long. You have massive gear inflation relative to what live was like. Plenty of people at the top end have multiple characters with full Kunark gear, including Trak/VS chest/legs, and numerous...

Holy shit, the specific guys involved are kinda the last people I'd expect, too. This is going to shake the server up a fair bit.

I've read basically every major fantasy epic series ever...except this one. It's about time, based on the positive comments here, which seem to mirror the positive comments everywhere else!

Entirely fair criticisms, especially on the corn knights thing. Solid fantasy standalones are rare though. Everyone expects a 7-book series with massive worldbuilding. If you're ok with more of a high fantasy LOTR feel, (requiring substantial suspension of disbelief, and recognizing that it...

If you like, for want of a better phrase, "literary fantasy", try out Guy Gavriel Kay. He writes trilogies and standalones, often paralleling aspects of real history (eg Italian-style city states, Viking era). The best intro is the standalone Tigana, which I consider one of the best single...

You can now refit subsystems in space, which is fantastic if you live in a wormhole! They also changed the reqs for all T2 guns to make them easier to access, although if you're already in a Legion, I doubt that's an issue.

CCP <3s you!

Ok this thread is awesome, more please.

Big thumbs up for Bomber's Bar. Very tolerant of newbies (if you listen), variety of targets, and an entertaining TS crew. This is one of the first things I went for (thanks FoH channel) and I was up and running within a few weeks of starting. Training Frigate5 and ElectronicsUpgrades5 are...

They're making a 3rd season? Fucking fantastic! I try to explain this show to people at work and they're like "oh that dude from The Wire is English?", completely missing the utter genius of the show. Looking forward to it.

I checked this out a couple of months ago. Staff were very helpful and communicative, but a lot of the mobs/pathing/stuff wasn't quite there yet. I'll check it out again shortly.

I've been on it for a couple of years. Really enjoyed the leveling part, as the sever does an excellent job of stimulating the nostalgia part of the brain and recreating the old zones. The raiding scene is pretty stale due to the server being stuck in Kunark for a hell of a lot longer than on...

Yuuup. This.
