    That looks like something he rebound? The inputs seem weird considering what they do in BDO using Shift and Space modifiers instead. That or every single unique skill in the game has a unique key combination and since they said there would be a lot of skills you could learn, they had to get...

    Path of Exile

    I was looking at the leveling video above and I got to thinking, is anyone even going to bother with Mirage mechanic while leveling? It's literally making your leveling a ton longer since you have to reclear stuff and it spits you back where you started doesn't it? Sounds like a horrible...

    Sunk cost is a lot more likely. It was originally a 2nd MMO project, then they cancelled that but decided to change it into single player to get some money out of it, but then kept spending more and more money into it and not having a finished product and they had no way back other than just...

    Crimson Desert

    Eh seems pretty standard stuff for open world games? It's a game that's been in the works for a very long time so even when they likely scrapped stuff for direction changes, they still had code and assets already made they could reuse later to re-add specific things, and then you have to...

    Path of Exile

    Thing is, and I could be wrong since I haven't played in forever but I assume that's still the case, the issue is that these skills are still melee. This is the same issue as melee in general, you need to be close and to hit stuff to do things. Normal summoner, you just run around, refreshing...

    Yeah story is somewhat secondary for this type of game versus fun combat and large detailed world. I spent hundreds of hours on Skyrim, Terraria and Elden Ring and none of these have a good story(can argue Elden Ring but it's the usual Souls "the story is in the description of the items" shit...

    Finally got my Laevatein essence after like 5-6 more runs since the last batch, so around 38 or so runs? I didn't count precisely and since I farmed essences inbetween I can't just count my essences in my bag anymore. Got Ember's essence in like 3 runs though.

    I'm not sure if there's a real cap, but there's a natural cap just from the weapon you can slot the essence in. At lvl 90, stats go up to +9 and the special skill(infliction, twilight etc) up to... +6? I forgot but you can see the max stats on the weapon. You can keep upgrading essences until...

    These in a gacha are considered weak dupes btw. Which is good overall since less difference between whales and F2P, although gachas don't actually make whale content that much, the whale advantage is just stuff being easier/faster. An example of what happens when powercreep and greed go...

    Seems the new stuff is online on Asia servers and yeah apparently it's super easy, in fact they nerfed some stuff from the beta version. Only seeing that you might want a healer for one of the stage, which well, everyone has with Ardelia so shouldn't be a problem.

    Arknights Endfield

    Yeah but that doesn't matter THAT much. I think it's more of an issue if you play the ice team cause the aoe is kinda dogshit there, but the other teams can deal with aoe better, and if you have Gilberta even ice should be fine. Even then, it doesn't look like it's tightly tuned at all...

    I mean there were a decent amount initially. Hopefully they have events with standard pulls in the future patch. Usually these games only have 25-30standard pulls a patch(some of which are gated behind character levels, Hoyo like doing that for example) so it's not unrealistic to have them fix...

    Iirc in beta they said it was single team. And there's no indication so far it's made for more teams either, when usually it'd be noted in these previews, so yeah don't think it is. In the future it'll likely be increased to 2 teams but they might keep it to 1 for 1.0. We'll see though, I've...

    Arknights Endfield

    Yeah as I said, RNG is RNG, I did get the right essence stats on a purple in my 2nd to last run though, as a little fuck you. My luck has been weird on this game so far, like how after 19 pulls on 49 accounts, I only had 1 laevatein. I think when I checked the math quickly that was 3-4% chance...

    Was the same with Laevatein banner. And it's just ass systems to make you waste pulls. The only upside is you end up getting 15pulls total(5 per banner with 3 chars), while in other gachas they give you "only" 10, but the 10 are permanent limited tickets you can use on any banner, not these...
