I'm cautiously excited for Star Citizen, but I wouldn't even consider putting money into it until there is far more evidence that it is going to come out. With the rate they announce features and ships it feels like the overall completion status for the game goes down over time. The planetary...

You have the 3.15 relics to look forward to though. Yoshi mentioned that the first step is so bad he wouldn't want to do it if he was a player. In all seriousness, HW really killed the magic of FF14 for me. All my old raid buddies that continually made fun of me for going back to WoW when HW...

Random world drops are Legendary (orange name) with unique affixes, D3 style. Some examples were a necklace that gave a chance for HoTs and DoTs to tick for the full value of the entire spell and a cloak that did 5k dps to all targets in a radius around the wearer. Crafted items have...

Yeah, these bags are pretty nuts. I managed to get one of the 1k rep tokens from one of these bags which I sold almost instantly for around 5k.

The original twister predicted the player's movement and you had to 'juke' it last second. Modern twister is placed behind you so you only have to move. The engine lag (which is still god-awful, 12-13 frames to active a spell and >30 to cancel) had nothing to do with it, it's just the community...

I wouldn't call any mechanic in FF14 difficult other than maybe the original Twister mechanic in T5 that only BlueGartr defeated. The game engine is simply too laggy/unresponsive to make things overly complex. There really is no reason for a group to ever wipe on a boss that they have beaten...

The game takes a lot of control away from the player with its auto lock on mechanic in comparison to other online action games like PSO or Dark Souls. It instantly killed my desire to play the game further when I noticed it in that forced tutorial thing.

Made a Ranger, probably because I'm a masochist. Currently in the Qeynos area but will probably make the run to Freeport soonish after getting a few levels. IGN is Aurra if anyone wants to do things.

I mean, yeah, that's great. We get the CT difficulty version of the first raid in a week. But all the bulletpoints in the world don't change the fact that I'm standing in Idleshire what, two weeks after release? With absolutely nothing to do to tangibly advance my character after roughly 30 to...

Does this expansion feel rather empty to anyone else? 2.0 wasn't exactly bustling with things to do, but at least it had the start of the relic weapon series for people to work on. Original primals gave the low/medium tier players some semblance of progression, etc. Whereas Bismark was a really...

Was Higby the root cause of Planetside Next being canned and PS2 being created instead? I don't remember him being around back in the PS1 days. I always wish they had stuck with their Tribes inspired gameplay rather than switching over to Battlefield based gameplay. A game series so shallow...

Awful combat is an understatement. A Diablo 1 Warrior has more interesting combat techniques than characters in this game.

The is a very slow paced, PVE focused game. They try to emulate the methodical feel of the turn based games in the series with a slow GCD. If you're into the raiding scene, the raid tiers which they release ("Coils") are extremely well tuned, to the point where the world first kills of the...

I actually just did that swap. When I deleted the beta client it disappeared from my list of games, but I was able to reinstall by visiting the store in the glyph client and hitting the 'play' button on that page. It is downloading right now.

Right, that is how I envisioned this system. If the gear is strong enough to matter in mass PVP, is it realistic that one guild/faction/group acquires these items in a fashion that other groups cannot emulate so this gear disparity actually occurs? I thought this was an open world semi-sandbox...

Is there any element of the game you can't experience if you don't have this super difficult to acquire Archeum gear?

Most estimations that I've seen on Reddit and the official forums shows that once you take the RNG element into account, it would cost upwards of 200k USD to craft a full set of the top tier equipment (7 armor pieces + weapon) for a single player using the cash shop as the source of labor points...

I'm bringing about 10k a day into the economy through high end cooking levequests. It's not a lot of money but it more than covers my daily repairs. I don't know how pure DoM/DoW players are supposed to generate more gil than they destroy though.

Just killed Behemoth on the Behemoth server. That was a massive cluster fuck. There was only a handful of level 50s (non-legacy server) and everyone but our tank was getting one shotted. Word spread fast that we had engaged him so people from all over were coming to participate which in turn...

One of the players in my dedicated group is an Arcanist, focusing on Summoner but we ran a Haukke Manor with him as Scholar just to test it out. The pet does a majority (80-90%) of the healing and you only have to spot heal every now and then in high pressure situations. The Bloodlust buff is...

Yeah there's a large difficulty spike starting with Blayflox's Longstop (Lv32). Temple of Qarn (35) has quite a few of instakill retard checks that will continually wipe the party until everyone is paying attention. With the way these are ramping up I can see them being the spiritual successor...

I've been on Behemoth this entire time with my friends and we haven't had any issues other than a few hours of congestion yesterday. It's been mostly clear. IGN is Aurra Field if anyone else is playing there. Has anyone found out how to unlock the battle-chocobo mode yet? I miss that from beta.

The cap right now is 50. Some classes have useful cross-class abilities that you should level for as well regardless of what you play so that's a bit of extra leveling that's necessary.

I remember Archimonde being down the first four days of WoW's release. When I finally did get to play it took 3 minutes to loot each mob and my character would float around the ground in the kneeling position.. Yeah, Square is obvious unprepared for the interest they received, but game has...

Well I finally got my 18 digit code to go through, but I received an RAAE (EU?) 20 digit code and my account is a NA account so the system isn't accepting the code it just gave me. SE's account management system feels like the website embodiment of FFXIV 1.0.

First time I saw the inn animations.. I admit I laughed.

Expecting this game to be Everquest 1.5 or whatever was silly. They specifically said that while that was the original plan, that project was scrapped to create what they have now. I'm highly interested in the Minecraft style mechanics. Hoping all that stuff is enabled for PVP areas.

Gamespot has a story on EQN already:http://www.gamespot.com/features/eve...opslot%3bSlot1 I haven't finished reading the article, but it sounds like it has pseudo-terrain altering mechanics?

The only console exclusive game that really caught my eye at this E3. I might have to buy a PS4 just for this.

Core Combat is disabled at the moment so there's no BFRs/Caves/Ancient Weapons. It's pretty much the golden days of PS1 right now besides battle islands instead of old oshur.

Conjurer is available right from the start, just go to the Conjurer guild in Gridania to get a free wand. Gladiator requires you to get another class to 10 and talk to the Wandering Minstrel in town.

The storyline quests that I found were all solo, outdoor content. It only went up to level 15 iirc so that could change later. Speedrunning dungeons was definitely the way to go though for leveling. EXP was better than bear-ass quests and the quality of gear was better by several orders of...

I recently got an urge to play this game again. I quit around when that BoB director defected and reset all their sovereignty. I sold all my characters back then with the exception of this old Caldari Achura. Anyone have any suggestions on how to skill to get into small scale PVP? I'll probably...

This game feels solid from a design perspective, it's just buggy as shit. My only (non-bug related) gameplay issue is that the safe zones seem to extend really far out of the newbie towns. If there were roaming guards to protect newbies or whatever I'd understand but being completely...
