    They give out a LOT of free pets, 5 from questing, and many from Events, especially for new / returning players, so don't worry too much about them. Get some PO's up during events that reward Pets and you'll have all you want.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I'll save everyone the trouble, 99% of the songs from 1985 onward were trash. No wonder I started listening stuff further and further away from "mainstream", lol.

    Such a great album, sad that everything after it sucked, but glad that everything before was also great.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Did GoT ever not look good? Just saying that if Hogwarts can run as well at GoT (in that the game didn't feel like 30fps) on its quality mode, I'll be happy. Not sure what PC performance will be like, my system (if I were to get the PC version) looks like it could run the "Ultra" settings with...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I'm really hoping that Hogwarts quality mode (locked 30fps) can play as smoothly as Ghost of Tsushima did on my ps4 pro since the performance mode (60fps) looks pretty drab/flat/dull. Though I'm guessing GoT was a special case.

    Any crystal setup you're seeing as being outdated, still works just fine. Ignore the slots, and just get those crystals. There are 3 slots in the new system which are locked; the two in the upper corners are for the Awakening weapon, which are unlocked by either a Garmoth Heart (both) or Karanda...

    This game just doesn't excite me at all. The gameworld looks fantastic though, but everything else just looks mediocre at best. I still say they need to outsource all animations / character art to KR or China. Compared to some no name Chinese game thats taken less time to make for way less...

    The C2 has that option elsewhere, but I have Deep Color 4k enabled for the PS5 port. MHW did look good on the C2/PS5, and ran a very stable 60 regardless of which setting I had it on, Resolution / Framerate / Graphics, at least in Astera / Ancient Forest walking around, I'm sure Daora would ruin...

    Only IF a game runs like ass at 4k/60, and then I'd get the PC version if possible. Figured out the reason though, the receiver I got apparently doesn't support 1440p at all, just 4k/60, 4k/120, 8k.. so whatever. I was thinking that I had things setup improperly. I will say I'm impressed with...

    In regards to your question about using 2 timepieces, which character is your Season? Assing you didn't like the playatyles of any of the sub 61's, I'd go with Witch since it's my fav. 😏 Zerker is great if you can manage to stay in beastform as much as possible. Classes have such diverse...

    Got a LG C2 tv today, got it hooked to the PS5, everything looks great. Yet, for some reason I've not been able to figure out, the PS5 simply will not agree that the C2 can run 1440p / 120hz. It should. Has anyone had a similar problem?

    Bought a LG C2 (42") today, along with a basic Denon AVR and an ultra high speed hdmi cable rated for 48gbps.

    I'll be getting the PS5 wired version of the Nova's this weekend or the next. I owned a previous version of the SS Arctis and thought they sounded OK, not as good as my Sennheiser 599's, but they were alright and comfy. If you haven't pulled the trigger on those by then, I'll mention what I think.

    Sometimes you're an idiot, this is one of those times. Blue hairs are a disease and their beliefs need to be excised from society, if China feels that doing so within games is good for their society, I'll agree with them on that.

    Given that the price for PEN gear is pretty cheap these days, the value of Jetina is less than it was in the past, but its still nice. The Jetina Accessory is a must though for sure. Ideally you want TET BLackstar weapons, with whichever playstyle you use most being the first (Succession or...

    Any outlet that gives this game higher than a 5 should instantly be suspect of being total trash. That said, I've not played, nor do I have an interest in playing based of the Demo, previews and the latest reviews.

    Trigun is a treat. After seeing so many shows remade is such a shitty way, we get to see this. Its obvious studio Orange loved the Trigun series, or at the very least had a lot of respect for the original. They've put a lot of care into this.

    Wayfinder -- new Free To Play MMO

    Been watching a friend play this (cbt) on a ps5 tonight. The game looks really nice, if you like the artstyle as I do anyway, like a combo of Battle Chasers and Arcane. Runs pretty poorly though, as I'd expect at this point. Combat is very souls-like, but quick. You have a main city that leads...

    Having a long term goal in BDO is pretty good, since you can get there at your own pace and be pretty assured in knowing that your goal most likely won't become irrelevant. Take breaks as needed to keep your sanity, then come back and have fun.

    Alchemy is 100% worth putting in the effort to hit Guru, since you can process imperfect lightstones into purified lightstones for very little compared to non alchemist, for a chance at those Strikes, Lucks, or Fortunes...$$$.

    I'm a real boomer when it comes to this game, and I don't use WASD for movement... which the game assumes you do. I use WQSE for movement, so classes that use a lot of Q / E / F skills messes with me a lot. If the F skill(s) are really good, I swap it with R, and if the Q / E skills cannot be...
