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

    I have no pledge yet, but did debate it. In the end I landed on not now. So far they have showed that they have a concept I desperately want when compared to what is available now. This is great, but then you also need to consider their history which makes me more cautious. I am not sure if that...

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

    Have they ruled them out for launch? completely? I admit, I would be sad if there was no bard. that said, I miss my Shadowknight.

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

    I am happy there is a real Enchanter in this game (or will be). My wife played an Enchanter for years and although she was willing to play a healer in Eq2, it did not last and I have yet to get her to play an mmo since. She loves the idea of them, but can't get back into Eq1 and she really loves...

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

    I know it shows nothing "Pantheon" yet, but it's a pre alpha showing the core they are going to build on, so I am fine with that. I do not know how things will progress in the end, but this game already feels like a modern Eq1 and if they can actually take it to launch quality, I will be happy...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Maybe cancelling my standard edition and getting gold edition will not be a waste afterall. I liked the beta, but I was really uneasy about the lack of content shown, especially after Destiny (granted I played the crap out of Destiny, even with its faults). So all the positives I have been...

    Ahh my mistake. I must have read something wrong. Still $105 less (considering $40 of your order was shipping to get it to $335) is nothing to sneeze at. So I hope, even if it never sees $295 again, I can perhaps get it at $325 or so. If not, I am sure I will eventually just take the plunge.

    It looks so amazing to me, But I need a sale or to play at least some of it first. I am hoping there will be a black friday sale that brings it closer to the $295 /w free shipping it was at the end of pre-orders (I think the first round of Pre-orders was $275). I have heard they like black...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    My edition from Amazon has not shipped and it's estimated to arrive on the 10th. So much for release day delivery. I hope it's just an error and I will get it sooner. Have a big Amazon Warehouse less than 30 minutes away, so I can hope.

    Same for us...well depending on traffic. It can be as short as 45mins or as long as 90 mins. They also sell some zip up bags that are supposed to be perfect for transporting games (people swear by them on BGG), but I have not looked for them yet. We do not get out there often, maybe couple of...

    It is very very minor rounding. You need to be up close to see it. Here is their marketing blurb: the KALLAX is a slight tweak on the beloved shelving system: a more scratch-resistant surface, slightly rounded corners, and thinner outer boards, but the same internal dimensions (see the full...

    The shelving is 8 of the 4 block Ikea EXPEDIT shelves all stacked. I wanted more, but I needed a spot for big games that do not fit. Sadly, Expedit has been discontinued, but it was replaced with Kallax, which is also pretty nice (just a little thinner around the outside and with rounded...

    DeLLy how do you like Posthuman? I really wanted to get it, but I heard it can run really long and have a runaway leader issue at times. trying to decide if I should throw caution to the wind. I like all these collection pictures. so as long as I did this right, here is my collection after my...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    I think for me it's that I just cannot see where they go with it. Everything is great, but it feels basically the same. Destiny tricked me with different planets and aliens. This game has a hard time doing that and it shows by lvl 26 gameplay looking like lvl 4 exactly. It would be better if...

    Hey all. First time seeing this thread. Got into the BG hobby about 6 years ago and am thoroughly addicted. Glad to see the hobby growing. I miss the nostalgia of my mmo gaming (do not do it nearly as much anymore), but sitting around a table and killing off your friends in Blood Rage (or insert...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    I want to like this game more because I had fun during the beta (both). The mission story was even good. I just hate that they are so cornered on what they can/will do because of the theme and wanting to keep it more realistic (bullet sponge aside). Still debating if I will keep my pre-order...

    Project Gorgon, round 2.

    I have been playing for about 2 weeks now. It's a really good game. The only thing I dislike is the lack of inventory. Sure you can increase the size that vendors will hold for you, but when pretty much everything that drops can be used for something, its hard to avoid being a pack rat and there...

    Guild Wars 2

    I am liking it so far. I played pretty hard for a year and half, but then life took me away from gaming. Trying to get a buddy to play again but all he says is that there is no power progression of his character once you grab 80 gear and won't bother. For me that feels true of any mmorpg, but...

    Looks like most other sites are raffles. I applied to a couple so fingers crossed. But lets be honest, if the game is great or bad, all the action will be here anyway.

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

    This. Every game now feels like the same formula to me. I loved Eq1 and I Loved WoW when it first came out. Played both for years. Since then, for me, the genre has just turned into hoping from game to game trying to get that next juicy fix of nostalgia, adventure, the unknown, and community...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I am in the same boat and the only thing I can come up with is to pickup the year 2 version of exotics you like from the armor Ipad. I am 295 light and all my gear is over 294 minus my ghost which is 288 and I see nothing I can buy with marks (other than exotics). That said, I am not even in a...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Using a rune pretty much ensures you will get something from the chest. If you do not use a rune, you can still get something, but it will be rare. Also, since the chest pops out engrams, they often roll to the ground below the platform. That said, most loot is going to come from killing all the...

    I am one of the worst players at Pvp (maybe PvE as well, but I have fun) and typically finish in the bottom 3 unless I am having a rare moment of brilliance and I love the daily. It does not matter if you or your team win or lose, you are guaranteed to get 15 points jsut for trying. That said...

    I know someone else asked as well, but asking still makes me feel inept lol, but could you please elaborate on what to do (steps, map, secret decoder ring)? I am so tired of empty zones. Its odd because the first few days of TTK everything felt packed and now I am mostly alone (unless in a...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I wasn't planning on taking advantage of the "higher than intended" drop rate when using the consumable, but since Bungie pretty much gave their consent and all, I figured why not. So I spent 21 strange coins and got 3 sets of the consumable (enough to kill the boss 15 times. I consumable per...

    Maybe I am living in the past. I enjoy this game or rather I did for about a year straight, but a couple of months after maxing out I lost all desire to log in for some reason. Maybe it was the grind or more likely the lack of feeling as if I was becoming powerful, not sure really. I do know I...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    I always feel like I got lucky when I met my now wife (going on 13 years, married young). I played games before I met her (mostly Command and Conquer, Warcraft, doom, and what not), but she is the one who got me to try MMOs for the first time, with Eq1. We both spent way to much time being...

    Diablo III - Ultimate Evil Edition

    Even though I own it on PC, I picked this up for PS4 and couldn't be happier. I think it feels better and controls really well. Sharing a screen (especially if you have a bigger flat screen) does not feel overly restricting imho. I think the only complaint I have is that if you are playing same...

    I am in the same boat debating between the Warlock and the Titan. I played the hunter, liked it, but my survivability was just not there. On the other hand, I did fine with the other two and really enjoyed their play styles. I know eventually I will just level both so I can by whichever when the...

    I watched a ton of reviews, including both of these (liked the second guy a lot more... make sure you watch part 2). If you read the comments the reason the mic sounds so bad is because he is running it through the PC, which makes it sound crappy for some reason and actually disables feature of...

    You need to pick through reviews with headsets and find the middle ground because most seem to be in a love or hate category for a lot of reviewers.

    After playing a little on the moon, my excitement just keeps going up.

    Sadly there is no PC version in the near future and I do not think they have committed to one at all, but they have said its not impossible. As far as crossplay, consoles within the same company (PS4/PS3 for example) cannot crossplay so cross platform play involving both Sony and Microsoft seems...

    Sounds to me like they are trying to stave off bullet inflation. Pretty smart idea, adding a bullet sink into the game by making sure it takes two bullets to kill a mob that obviously should only take 1. At least its subtle enough that a lot of people will not notice this tax and immersion will...
