    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Dark Souls 2 done. Okay, I was totally doing the Lud and Zallen fight wrong. If you fight them solo, the fight is WAY WAY easier. The second cat joins when the first is at like 30% HP, as opposed to 90% or so if you bring NPC allies. Also they have way less HP. Having NPCs distracting them isn't...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    There's a pretty big difference between what I did in EQ and the stuff people are describing doing in WoW. I can't imagine grinding out dailies for rep every day for years and stuff like that. EQ wasn't really about grinding, I'd log on for raids and kill bosses / finish all of an expansion's...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    All I have left is Frigid Outskirts and the two cats from hell, then I'm done with everything outside Elden Ring. Maybe I will Souls 3, there's like six weeks before SOTE. Depends on if time permits with the EQ stuff later this month. I've pretty much dropped Stellar Blade (for now) so that...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    To be faaaaair, maybe since you were #1 DPS and he was last-place, she figured he needed stat improvements a lot more than you did and was trying to create another useful DPSer. I can't believe people spend their time this way. Played most of the WoW expansions for like one month each and did...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Oh that makes sense. Sounds like something necro and shaman could do more effectively than druid, in any case. Kinda want to try it now. Might do an SK bind rush of a certain epic mob that resides in a certain town and see how that goes with Boil Blood.

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Agreed on VP. They did the same thing with Nu NTOV several expansions later. It's full of rare nameds (a lot of dragons that didn't get raid versions, like Vyemm and Dagarn) that are designed for very strong groups and drop really good stuff. Hardly anyone actually EXPed in there on Phinny...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    All this talk about Veeshan's Peak reminded me that the Ring of Scale expansion (level 106-110) has VP as its final zone. It functions as both OW group content and a raid instance (most endgame zones are like that after a certain point). This VP revival is interesting because they re-did the...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Wait a minute, I remember this, or at least I remember Leycow and I remember hearing something about this happening, didn't know it was him. I was on the TT server at the time too. Leycow is the guide that showed up and gave me my JBoots after Hasten Bootstrutter ate my quest items (still, to...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    By the time I was really playing for real (late 2004) the raid game was totally different and debatably a lot better. As a kid when I played in 99/00 before giving up for a few years, I didn't really get to raid much. I did a couple Velious raids that were kind of a flop as an un-epiced Rogue...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Went back to finish Dark Souls 2 DLCs. Man, these are super tough. I see why I never replayed them after the one time in 2015. Managed to beat Fume Knight thanks to someone putting down a summon sign. Guy with two giant swords with blue fire. I kept dying to Fume's second phase, but when I...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I asked about that after I finished the game and I don't think I got an answer. I'm not sure how the chapter select works. I think the best bet is to just load up the second to last chapter and run around doing everything in that if going for the plat, then start over at Chapter 1 for the Hard...

    Not gonna lie, all of this sounds AWESOME. I imagine VP now is a pale shadow of a shadow of what it was then though. Still gonna be cool to finally see it.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    At this point I'd hold over Metroid Prime 4 and make it a Switch 2 launch game. This would also give it around 4 more months of development time for them to try and up the resolution or whatever improvements Switch 2 allows. Think it'd be way more beneficial to them as a launch game than as a...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Yeah I'm not sure what they're thinking here. At least single-character people won't have as much work to do to keep up. The one thing I don't like about Teek is that the unlock cadence is a little too drawn-out. Also I'm surprised they still aren't consolidating expansions. LDON should be put...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Hard for me to imagine a time when your epic and all your other stuff would rot if you died in Veeshan's Peak and there was no backup raid available to do recovery. It was like Plane of Fear on steroids. IIRC you couldn't gate or teleport out once you zoned in either (you could be rezzed out...
