    Tales of Maj'Eyal

    Oozemancer was my first insane win, they are tankier than bulwarks, have great mobility and decent nuke power. Not invincible, but great for surviving almost any instant-death situation. Archmage is fun and powerful, but you have to actually pay attention to what classes the rares have, because...

    Tales of Maj'Eyal

    I always play on insane difficulty these days, and pretty much always skip the dark crypt. Corruptors just have way too much instant burst damage and bone armor makes killing them quickly impossible - no matter how tough you think you are at that point, the chances of getting insta'gibbed is...

    Artifact suggests a strong degree of skepticism is warranted there.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    Depends by whose standards - Lich is actually kind of like a typical gamer 'Obviously my companions are better off as undead, think of the resists and buff synergies ! Sure they may complain about it now, but they won't care afterwards'

    Doctor Who

    Wait, hold up here, you thought 'Space Babies' was a pro-abortion argument ? Seriously ?

    Doctor Who

    Yeah, it's the same kind of thing as the specials - the kid's show aspect has been dialed up from probably to a 9/10 instead of a 4/10. So a lot of the stuff is things that would be fun/funny for 8 year olds. Really great kid's stuff doesn't insult your intelligence for watching - this is not...

    Tales of Maj'Eyal

    There's a few types of crafting - you get jewelry crafting with the base game, socketed items with Stone Warden or escort, cursed items with Cursed, steampunk tinkering comes from the orc campaign DLC ( Embers of Rage ) and Cults adds custom item crafting, but as Pyros pointed out, that is super...

    Orphan Black: Echoes

    The lead character of orphan black was 98% of what made it work. Without her they don't even try really, the three actresses they have playing the same person aren't even a little bit convincing in being the same person. It's not completely awful though, was still mildly entertaining, but has...

    Dark Matter

    I thought it was good, but not great. I know where the story is going from the book though, so probably a bit more suspense etc if you are coming into it fresh.

    Yeah, I dropped that one for pretty much those reasons

    I once got my nephew a toy phone that had the same ringtone as my sister's phone. I am pretty sure that was a crime against *something*.

    Two years ? Two months is more like it.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I think he's more talking about more than combat balance in that - storywise with how BG3 ends there's not a lot of reason for the characters to be doing some epic high level adventure. Sort of cheapens out a lot of endings if it immediately segues into 'Oh hey, I am back, that problem was...

    I am sure it is - not restricted to F2P shit though, from memory WoW was single-handedly keeping the entirety of Vivendi alive before the Activision 'merger'. F2P probably makes it worse though, just look at how much bullshit Epic has gotten up to off the back of Fortnite.

    The Boys

    "I can't believe this is fucking happening to me again" LOL.
