    Path of Exile

Is there a poe discord any of you are on I'd love to join one with my million questions. pretty sure I need to respec quite a...

    Path of Exile

    so ive repeatedly tried to get back into this game over the years and everytime i get overwhelmed by systems that i used to know but long forgot. Am thinking of trying again, been looking at this atlas system and looks cool. Is it worth playing on standard league or should i just start over on...

    the ecological fallacy and identity politics

    Education system is something that can be remolded /reshaped and is our hope for a better future. Removing identity politics from its entrenched position is an important part of that and there are people fighting the good fight. Eliminating diversity what does that even mean? Sorry this isnt...

    the ecological fallacy and identity politics

    This fallacy happens all the time on these boards and most people seem totally blind to it. It's important to keep in mind that for most things, 1) individual variance is much greater than group differences, and 2) outliers tend to amplify the group variances even though the average individual...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Most likely there are ravens trained to always fly to a specific location and back. Like there's castle black ravens, dragon stone ravens, winter fell ravens all at kings landing, and so on

    Ozark

    Show drags around episodes 2-4 but it picks up and easily becomes one of the best shows of the year by the end. And great setup for some interesting future plots

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jaime's arc was one of the most satisfying in the book. How he learned what sacrifice and honor and being a true knight meant from brienne, and his path towards redemption. I don't understand why they just left him as a henpecked douche in the show, there's just no reason for going a diff direction

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    If you count failing in raid pugs like I've been doing all week, then content in this game is basically infinite

    Savage 4 already cleared by angered fc. So atleast we know it's not a gear cockblock. Gonna hold off on calling it too easy until I see a bunch more clears but it's definitely looking that way. A far cry from a1-4s

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Still waiting for jaime's redemption arc to happen. I figured after tommen he was gonna flip his shit and choke a bitch. But he's still acting like a lapdog this season , so disappointing. I still think in the end tho Jamie is going to be the one killling cersei

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Only done Susano ex so far but it seems a far cry from the difficulty level of Thordan or sephirot, just way way fewer mechanics to learn. Was still painful but got it done pretty quickly in pf where as those other fights took days early on. My only beef with Susano is if you get that debufff...

    Playing Catch up in this game sucks. I won't hit 70 this week which means I'll be permanently behind getting drops from the omega raid

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The omega theme is pretty cool because it gives them an excuse to put just about any boss fight in they want. So it should be a lot more varied than alexander

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    the combat gets far better at end game except if youre a healer..leveling up is so boring and can be slow if you have to kill stuff, as astro im just spamming one button the whole time. story gets far better post 50. the 2.0 story was barely passable as far as what i'd expect from an ff game...

    Silicon Valley

    Thought this episode was brilliant. I'll be disappointed if there's not atleast one article in salon or variety etc calling the show racist now for the Dinesh bomb scene.

    Story quality of sb compared to hw? I haven't bought yet but if the story continues to get better I may. The original game story was painfully bland but hw was pretty decent (and one of best by mmo standards )

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    A8s if done the intended way was also pretty damn hard. Just most groups avoided the hardest mechanics with tank lb2 and on the final phase , by sacrificing the water debugf target (not sure if they ever fixed that but when I quit you could still sac there without an explosion). I didn't do...

    Hugh Jackman: Logan

    I dunno maybe I'm too separated from the xmen franchise at this point, the last one I saw before this was with jean grey.. think it was the 2nd original xmen movie. But I felt this movie was just incredibly depressing. Stewart played a demented person so well it was actually uncomfortable for me...

    Cruises: Good Value Vacation or White Trash Rafts?

    If this is a normal thing to buy all inclusive concert cruise packages with limited information and off of celebrity endorsements then it's well beyond my reality. I guess if I had been routinely doing this with success, I suppose I'd be surprised at how this blew up. But reading this it...

    Laptop Computers

    My asus felt well built but the power jack came apart in under two years , and the pc crapped out around the same time, ended up scrapping it. My next laptop an msi felt flimsy with cheap looking plastic but is going steady nearly 3 yrs later and I've burned a ton of gaming time into it.

    Cruises: Good Value Vacation or White Trash Rafts?

    This is just typical human behavior winning over sound logic. Very few people have a healthy enough sense of skepticism. Rushing in and buying tickets without knowing details is not something a cautious person would do but then again I don't understand people who rack up thousands in cc debt...

    I was at gdc this year and am fully convinced that vr has arrived. Everything was about vr, as opposed to previous gdc fads that petered out the following year. And the shit i messed with was damn awesome. I don't think they are anywhere close to realistic mass production(I mean for a lot of the...

    Get Out (2017)

    This was a good movie. I don't know about 99% on rotten tomatoes. Like someone else said I wouldn't say it was groundbreaking or whatever which I would expect out of a rating % like That - however keep in mind that is more a percent of how many favorable reviews this got - and there were a lot...

    Black Desert

    So I've watched some YouTubers lately roll back their previous comments and am now hearing this game actually it not pay to win. I play this casually but correct me if I'm wrong - can't you buy costumes with cash then sell them on the marketplace for in game gold? Isn't that a shortcut for...

    just went thru a marathon of almost every best picture nominee (Except lion and fences) and this was a damn good movie. I think hell or high water should have won but this is easily a solid second. I figured hohw wouldnt win since it's not trying to be 'artsy' enough so it makes sense this won...

    Question on healing in heroic night hold - what's a good ilevel to be at for nighthold heroic. Currently i877 tho this is a bit inflated by two i940 legendaries. I've cleared normal now a couple times so figured I'd give heroic a shot but so far only gotten groups at augur krosus and spell...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Eq was pretty much the last mmo where zone design was defined by 'lore' without really any attention paid to anticipated level of players or convenience of combat /pulling and other quality of life measures. This resulted in wildly varying levels of difficulty often in the same zone, and some...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Game actually requires more poopsocking on the high end than it used to. In bc I was in a small roster guild of like 30 ppl that server firsted all of sunwell on area 52, and top 10d some fights in US. While working 60-80 hours a week. I'd stand zero chance of pulling that off in today's endless...
