    But you do have to input everything, guess that makes sense since an API would add unnecessary load on the servers but kinda sucks there's not a way to get a csv filedump or something from your inventory that you then upload to garmoth and it just sorts that shit out itself.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well it's for 7.0 release. Considering the "break" in the story and 7.0 being a "vacation" type expansion, it'd make perfect sense to have a skip available for the new expansion. I would have thought a skip that goes directly into 7.0 story would even be the choice, although apparently they want...

    Oh random question since I see the Garmoth posts, how does Garmoth work in terms of input, do you have to fill up everything yourself or does it have a way to pull your inventory content via an API? It looks nice to get an idea of what you pull from each spot and stuff but if you have to input...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It is funny that Yoshi-P's shirt basically covers both options for a new class with TNMT being named after artists(so could be that art based caster class similar to Relm) but also is potentially a reference to Tortuga(turtle in spanish) which was an island that was the major den of piracy in...

    That marni change looks pretty crazy, I thought getting a 2nd hour or a stacking system so you can pool say 3days and then grind for 3hours in a row would be nice, but every other hour sounds pretty busted if you just alternate between life skilling/random shit/afking and farming. I had kinda...

    Grim Dawn

    Well a new expansion is good although this seems pretty far away seeing as how they're not even really confirming it much or anything. New patch is kinda whatever for me, not enough to get me back to playing but a new expansion with new class+new content I'd for sure reinstall and give it...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Main issue I have about getting motivated by this release is that both with Divinity 1 and 2, they came with a Definitive Edition that had a lot of nice changes+story reworks like 9months later, and honestly it feels like I could just sit on it until next year and just play the better version at...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Hmm I can't tell if they slapped a bunch of nerfs because the suits didn't like player retention and they thought slower progression would keep people playing longer during the season(ignoring the fact that a bunch of ppl were just waiting on the season to begin anyway) or because they got...

    Black Desert

    That's a load of horseshit. The classes are designed that way so that's why you can't change buttons? Even though they change buttons themselves when they notice some shit doesn't work very well? Even though buttons are all simple inputs, so effectively most classes are just as easy to play as...

    Black Desert

    On the inputs, I'm not mad, I don't like it. Not doing stuff comfortably is a valid issue because the reason I can't is because they decided I can't simply change the bind to a different bind. As you said, there is no difference, so why can't I change it? And the answer is, they don't want to...

    Black Desert

    To be fair the controls could be better. Unless they changed them since last time I played, but one thing I really disliked is you couldn't change anything. If the devs decided your movement skill is Shift forward or Back F or whatever, then that's that. They should let you rebind stuff as you...

    So like every other RPG in the past 20years? If it's not part of the main story a lot of ppl just won't see it, hell even if it part of the main story you have people who just skip cutscenes anyway. All side content is just that and that means a decent amount of people are just not going to...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Description of story difficulty made it sound it just the cheating accessories being auto equipped at the start, you can remove them(or equip them after choosing action). I've been playing on performance for higher fps but it does look muddy and weird every now and then. Motion blur kinda makes...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Which means it might be decently playable by the time the expansion drops I guess. I'll just keep waiting a bit and grab all that later on, let it simmer a bit, no hurry at this point since I haven't even picked up the original game yet.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Always been a thing, probably more popular now due to the surge of the isekai genre in manga/anime/light novels(the large majority of isekais is guy gets summoned/reincarnated in a western medieval fantasy setting), no real name for it I'd think, closest would be westaboo which is reverse weaboo...

    Path of Exile

    Don't think they'd launch poe2 without any big promotional tour and all that shit. Poe2 beta sounds more likely, but also crucible is ending around that same time supposedly, are they gonna cannibalize the next league by having poe2 beta running at the same time? Are they just gonna be like "no...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    From what they've shown this looks like it'll be somewhat different from NMS though, less sandbox and more handholding, which isn't necessarily a bad thing as NMS feels a bit too random at times where you just kinda go through planets that aren't super interesting with nothing much to them until...

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    I wouldn't say that's entirely the case, action korean games also had animation locks on some of them, notably TERA. I think it works fine when you design your combat as an action game similar to Monster Hunter/Dark Souls combat stuff where animation locks act as balancing tool for your...

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    UO "melee combat", if you could call it that, was just autoattacks. You had to stop moving a little for the autoattack to fully play to hit stuff, but that just meant running at someone, stopping for like half a second for the animation to start, then moving to cancel the rest of the animation...

    Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2

    Possible but could keep it as DLC and what not. Usually Tyrannids wouldn't cooperate with anyone but could see some Chaos fucks exploiting the mess at the same time.

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Usual disclaimer, it starts somewhat slow. Not as slow as some other stuff, but the first few quests you're confined into the "starting area" and don't get to do too much. Once you start the escort of the wagon towards... whatever the fuck the name of the city is, the game opens up a lot and you...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    I don't think it was that bad, sure it was far from min maxing but iirc it wasn't even that much impact cause stats get muddied down at higher values? Maybe I'm remembering wrong but I think it was like 15% weaker if you went for example warrior 1-150 then switched to sorcerer. And the game...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    At the same time it's somewhat disingenuous to compare FPS with it on because obviously it's gonna be higher since it just generates additional frames, but it is a nice feature. It's also unclear if their 30xx test uses DLSS2 since Returnal supports that too, which also increases FPS. Not as...

    Playstation 5

    Yeah don't think half of that will make it, for example I'd assume FFVII Reborn won't be previewed before FFXVI has been released just to avoid confusion/hype issues. Dragon's Dogma 2 I'm not sure is an exclusive platform deal(maybe though) and don't know if it's anywhere near ready to start...

    Lost Ark Online

    Yes but when ppl think of mmo numbers it's usually sub numbers cause that's the only thing you can extrapolate somewhat accurately from ingame data or available info. What are the concurrent numbers for wow or ffxiv? How bad Lost Ark is compared to them? It's a bit dumb to compare to launch...

    Lost Ark Online

    40-50k concurrent players is likely good enough for most mmos to survive, that's still a lot of people, concurrent numbers aren't the same as "monthly subs" and such.

    Switch emulators Ryujinx and Yuzu

    Well the "legal" answer is yes absolutely what are you a thief? The actual answer is obviously, no. You download a rom somewhere and the only thing you need is the key that you would usually get out of your Switch using a convoluted system(which also doesn't work if your Switch is patched up...

    Lost Ark Online

    They did the same thing with the abyss dungeons back at launch though, they nerfed them for our version and then KR got the same changes like a month later or whatever. Wouldn't be super surprising if they also did the same for KR, since nerfing old raids so they're easier to farm/learn for new...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Might just be no one is in the closed beta? But they could have more serious looking NDAs too, although these are still unlikely to be very enforcable anyway, but I remember back when I was in GW2 beta(or alpha I forgot), I had to send a copy of my ID card with a contract-like NDA back to them...

    Well well, a bunch of them do ASMR streams and so on too, but yeah at least it's not the whole "I'm answering questions in a bikini/in a jacuzzi" kind of stuff. Bunch of them(the Hololive streamers especially) do karaoke and stuff too if you're into that, even do concerts and what not. Honestly...

    To be fair though if it's more than 50%, given a large enough amount of currency to gamble, you would come out on top as long as you can keep getting fodders right? Which means it might still be fucked even if you do lose your stuff every now and then, as long as you can just restart and keep...

    No Man's Sky

    While it wasn't that intrusive in BDO, I still don't like having to keep my PC on forever to get full benefits from the game, however small they were(BDO was just afk fishing+farming being done, which was negligible amounts of money but still more money than no money). Iirc Granada Espana you...

    Right you don't if you want to keep leveling your current weap(in whatever slot), but the issue here is in case the weapon in your offhand is already a static thing(like for gem leveling with white sockets or just the right sockets and it's already maxed out in crucible xp or just has a shit...

    Problem isn't so much that your swap is used or not, but that swapping weapons will drop whatever is active on your current weapons. If it's a 6L with your main skill it's fine(well assuming it's not a summon type), but if you have auras and shit in there it's just tedious shit. Not sure why you...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    As far as I remember they released a couple of big stinker patches when they fucked over everyone's movement skills that got a lot of of ppl to leave and the game wasn't in the healthiest spot to begin with probably. I think the raid was a lukewarm success too? And they probably invested a bunch...

    16's gonna be way different I'd assume, combat being action and the game being a single player 30-40h one-time(for many ppl) thing, this is a mmo where they can afford to pad the dialogues because you only get like an hour of story every 3.5months, plus it reduces the costs. No reason to...

    https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_GB/product/818937/final-fantasy-xiv-stormblood Free Stormblood expansion, currently only EU but I guess NA in like 10-30mins or so. Will likely be rolled baseline in 6.5 or 6.55 or so(or maybe in 7.0 I forgot when they did that for HW).
