    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Personally I couldn't give a shit about hardcore or casual features, what drove me to unsub and quit were two things: 1) The first zones for exiles were fun, forest and the other one, with several beatiful things, interesting questlines, bit annoying to navigate, but manageable. On the other...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    One less button to push, more energy for kicks Joking aside, I decided to ignore monk for the time being, Mistweaver sucks giant cocks and Brewmaster is being mauled to death. Very druid oriented for the xpack... still uncertain to be honest. I can't force myself to main a dps-only class, even...

    If you were into the stupid grind of ascended gear, you needed stuff dropping from world bosses (those on a timer), but the "going back to lowbie zones" was just a matter of badly done scaling, you had X hp instead of Y and did 100 dmg instead of 10k. EQNext is making me think that all those...

    Services prices are just amazingly high, if they'd cost 1/5th, I'd have used and abused them all quite a few times already. I play 11 characters, there is no way I'd pay for a server transfer for all of them. If the price would be ? 5,00 each, I'd consider it, but 225? Fuck it.

    Aside from the fact that fun is quite subjective, I would like to point out that I'm playing Landmark and I know jack and shit of EQN, in fact I've yet to see a thing related to real gameplay. Saying that Next isn't fun now, is like saying the next world cup final will be boring. How the fuck do...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For me it's a pita. I had 6 alliance characters and 5 horde ones. Now they are 7 and 4, because I did a faction change to play with my friends on alliance side with a specific class, since those on horde side have all pretty much stopped playing in Cataclysm. Moving the other 4 is too costly, so...

    I like brewmaster tanking, and mildly enjoy mistweaver healing, even if it's imo slightly subpar compared to other healers. I thought this could have moved me to play the class as main, but I'm not really too fond of many class changes, I'll wait for 6.0 to have a better picture of what's going...

    You need 496 average to enter SoO LFR, unless they do ToT or previous pointless shit, it's impossible to be even there. Also you don't get a full set in one hour, forget it, if you are lucky a couple pieces and one burden for the 535 piece. Unless you collected it with some other character.

    Stomping Lands - Dinosaur survival mmo

    Sorry, but since people consider intelligent and a great feature to receive their games in chunks (shitty DLCs) and are happy to fork 60 for 10-12 hours of entertainment, plus now they are also gullible enough to pay for unfinished products... well, they should just suck it up and write it in...

    Yes and no. Sometimes the things they change are stupid, sometimes they hit the nail on the head, it's a bit of a toss up. Imo Cataclysm was the worst xpack because of the various class changes, destrolock for example went from superbly fun in LK to a chore in Cata (Soulfire buff to be...

    I prefer legendaries to be... legendary, not having everyone with the same fucking cloak, I don't care if I don't get one, I can get it later in the game for shit and giggles (still waiting for Geddon binding, fuck you Geddon, fuck you!). This cuts from playing alts (because no way I'm doing it...

    It's still not playing by the rules. Personally I don't give a fuck about HB or whatever other crap is around if it doesn't impact my gameplay, like for example that bot program that went rampant during vanilla and populated the world with bot farmers, but rules are usually set in place for a...

    You can find several people commenting on the state of the warrior now and in beta. Protection is and has been very enjoyable for me since WotLK, the design was just that good, although I dearly miss Concussive Blow, the spec has always been quite fun. Arms and Fury are not very fun in my...

    I did Stormstout Brewery and Jade Temple several times while levelling, you don't really need a healer there, I often ran it with an elemental shaman that tossed a few healing surges. Brewmasters are just that good at tanking.

    SWTOR

    Planets have a main storyline and of course a piece of the personal class storyline, both can be nice and entertaining the first time, some filler quests are pointless and some open up when you kill certain mobs, but you hardly need to get out of your way to complete them (kill 20 of a certain...

    For me it was simple: I didn't want to carry players and I'm too nice to tell them to go fuck themselves. I decided to quit and I'm not missing the game, which is a good enough proof that I didn't really love it. If I could have back my old guild, yeah sure, the game would have been a lot of...

    I'm fairly newbie in this game concerning everything that is not just smashing mobs to pulp, so I'm asking here. After some trials and tribulations, the altoholic in me has decided to stick with a class until the level cap, well okay, one class per faction (sage and operative). I'd like to know...

    Unless Storybricks is Skynet in disguise, it will certainly require a lot of work behind the scenes to figure out everything that is possibly going to happen. They made the example of the road where orc bandits want to pillage caravans, then caravans will hire more guards (players maybe), at one...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I could have written that, word for word. Agree 100%. As much as I enjoyed the combat system, the rest of the game is bizarre: quests bloat was the major turnoff, especially since zero fucks are given about 99% of the quests, while for example in SWtoR, the filler ones are few and the main ones...

    Everything PvP related in MMOs is stupidly imbalanced except for a couple days when things are released, then all you get is a stupidly long grind where you keep losing, but eventually gain enough points to be competitive. I don't know why anyone can consider this shit even remotely fun. I...

    WoW. It didn't take them long to make innate combo points /sarcasm off. They even introduced the gayest ability ever, redirect, which I used maybe a grand total of 5 times in several years, because it also had a long cooldown and because fuck cooldowns.

    How can you estimate the classes from a beta? I'm not even sure there are raids available, let alone enough beta testers to have reliable numbers. WoW history showed that by playing warlock or hunter you'll do good enough, no matter what. Mage depends, it's a toss up, usually with later tiers...

    Warriors have never been the better choice. Engineer and stalker compete for that with engi pulling ahead, warriors are... not there. I'm not against group content, hell I love it.

    Levelling is the same, which is to say it's quite fast and with a very flat curve as you certainly know. I'm not sure I ever timed my levelling speed, but it slowed only when I started fucking around blindly, when I focus on map openings (hearts, poi, vistas, skills) it goes very fast...

    I don't buy it. I'm sad to see him go, but I'm going to bet he went head to head with that phenomenal jerk from activision. He probably wanted to do games, the other guy wanted to make shit sellable in online shops, so he left or was shown the door. I want to think it's something like this. Good...

    Mine was more of a hopeless cry, rather than a genuine hope. See, I love GW2 because it's been very "immersive" for me since release and I'm in love with their art style and world design. It's also quite challenging if you want to consider Orr respawn rate into the mix and bad players into pugs...

    There are two ways to be good at football, one of them is precluded to (most) national teams, which is "buy the best players". Some countries do this nonetheless, with naturalized players (they offer them citizenship, say Switzerland for example). The second way is to create a *healthy* culture...

    Definitely true. I'm still attracted by this game, not even for the living story which I find normally a pile of shit with a few gems hidden inside. There is something in GW2 that clicks with me, which must be esoteric or shit like that, because I can't point to it. Combat is fun, some skills...
