    Everquest Legends

    True, was thinking about inventory management and the ridiculousness of PoE, while forgetting about WoW level boosts. The level boosts are also not relevant to current xpac content for most of the xpac, and aren't that useful to people that are actively playing the game. Of course, it still...

    Everquest Legends

    I have never played and can't recall even seeing a game with a box price and a sub having convenience items in the cash shop. They are either F2Play with a bunch of convenience items in the cash shop, like PoE, or box price plus a sub, with cosmetic cash shop, like WoW. I assume it's some...

    The Video Thread

    We have them in North Texas as well and have only seen, at most, 2 at a time in both the city and countryside. I would assume it's some kind of rehab or possibly a reserve for birds that can't be released back into the wild.

    Everquest Legends

    I have hated the move to DLC over XPACs for as long as DLC have existed, but cosmetics in an MMO cash shop have kinda become a whatever. On the other hand, having a cash shop with convenience items on a game that is demanding a box price and a sub price is super scummy. People that pay for it...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I could see where they are trying to go, if they are trying to make druids an acceptable replacement for clerics and wizards. That would mean in Summer stance they would need to be as good of a healer as a cleric but also as bad as cleric DPS. Then switched in Winter stance to the point they...

    I know, right. I remember the exact date that happened: March 21st, 2006.

    Adrullan Online (Formerly Evercraft)

    That seems a little extreme to get into a game's alpha test... but then again, you could also investigate what these people are trying to do to this 1000+ pound log while you are there: SOURCE

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    The olive oil works fine for turning the Emeril's spice mix into a marinade and soaking into the meat for 1 to 4 hours. Then it smokes off fast when the meat is thrown into an extremely hot and "dry" cast iron pan. The meat sears up just as well as any other way to sear a steak and the Emeril's...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Should probably try that next time, if I want to take the time to clarify some butter, but since I rarely cook with it or Ghee, it never comes to mind. The olive oil does an adequate job.

    The Odyssey (2026)

    I was mostly talking about The Departed, with a few scenes like the Cranberry one above and Wahlberg's theory on FEDs... but yeah, almost all of Scorsese's crime movies have multiple good quote excerpts. The Casino memorable lines are mostly longer monologues though. Some of the shorter ones...

    Gothic Remake

    I remember liking the Gothic series as much as Morrowind and certainly more than any other FPS RPGs made before 2010 or so. It's hard to compare them with the more modern games like The Witcher 3 or even Skyrim with a plethora of well developed mods (Gothic 2/3 > vanilla Skyrim), but I also...
