    Yeah, it's a lot. But my line of thinking is that a night out for dinner/drinks/taxis etc. could end up around that and that's only a few hours of entertainment and a hangover. If the game was good enough that I could play it every day perhaps I could justify it

    So suddenly having a month plus of free time and no games I'm currently playing (and terrible luck getting into betas), could anyone tell me if this game is worth dropping around $200 for a beta key? Obviously this is a lot of money but I figure if it keeps me entertained for a month or two it...

    I'd like to see this, if it's true then it's a fairly large step forward. Was thinking about this the other day, how every MMO game I've played from AO to Warhammer and even WoW (which even if it isn't your cup of tea you have to admit the engine is very smooth) dies a death when there are...

    Remember hitting 220 on my first character, even people Id been pvping against for months from orgs we'd recently taken towers from sent me congrats because everyone realised what a massive pain in the arse it was. Is the engine being polished up on top of the graphics? I have a huge soft...

    Sorry for more noob questions, thanks for the tank / healer synergy information. I teamed with some better players later that day, but boy are groups a mixed bag. That fight with the slime where you have to pull the exploding mobs onto the slime to destroy it BLEW PEOPLES MINDS. Like they...

    So do tanks not have many aggro gaining abilities around level 20 or are the people I've met just terrible? In every dungeon I've done except for one the second I cast a single heal I get charged by nearly every single mob, even when waiting until the tank is on around 30% before casting the...

    Probably something really easy, but when Im healing in parties how do I make it just show HP instead of all the other stuff cluttering up the party bars? Is there a way to do that?

    The email address I use for any site like that is a throwaway gmail account, unrelated to my main email address I use elsewhere. So no, they don't have that. There is always a risk in things like this, in my opinion and experience on the site mentioned its fairly low to non-existant.

    Used offgamers for about 5 years now for many different game keys and some RMT. Never been scammed once, and have no idea how I would get "hacked" since they don't need any of my login details to deliver the gamekeys etc. Plus they take paypal so not exactly gonna get my card charged either...

    I bought a key from offgamers, been trying for about 3 hours to login, was finally able to make a new brand new character on EU just now.

    Finally got the na/eu group to update, so NO servers are allowing the creation of new characters? Amazing

    I got my key from offgamers, was ?22 which is around ?7 more than amazon, but still seemed pretty reasonable and instant delivery.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    is there a way around this "unable to update the Group NA/EU character list" error shit? Does that mean its just 100% down and to stop trying, or is it just being overrun and you are able to get in eventually if you keep trying?

    I liked the schlocky aspects of it. The times they went totally overboard likeThe plot and script was absolutely awful though, just terrible. Agree with the poster above me that they could have droppedand put in more of the soviet / chinese mechs fighting or even centered a bit of plot...

    Greed Monger - "What Ultima Online X should have been"

    Not into crafting but I like the sound of the social aspects of all coming together to build the taverns etc. in the world, very cool. Does it mention anything about classes? (at work so can only skim) Am looking for a game with more depth to classes such as those in AO, rather than "here...

    Think I'm out. Bought the ms marvel binary costume last night. Within five minutes of putting it on realised that (a) looked like she was wearing a bathing cap all the time, (b) when the game chunks (a lot) there is a second where she is completely bald and (c) when in Limbo it must scale...

    Yeah the timer thing sort of makes sense, and I think you can chain queue now which is better. However, xp was already really slow I just can't understand why they wouldn't buff the other terminals like you said. Not to mention the people who have already powered their way to 60 by leaving and...

    Yeah they need some alternatives to limbo, getting tedious pretty quickly but its the only decent option for levelling really. Zoning into a complete limbo doesnt help either, has happened to me all day today.

    Plus times have changed, and the MMO finds itself in strange territory. I remember 10 years ago or whatever, my main reason for playing an MMO was to see this huge populated world full of people. Was amazing to me that so many people could interact, have houses and craft for each other, group...

    Oh man you are so right about the videos.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJofvcBvzoo&noredirect=1, this one in particular makes it look as if the guy playing has never played a video game in his life, at least in the start where he's trying to climb a root to some epic music.

    Am I the only one who think's GW2s combat was pretty much awful? It wasn't on tor's lack of responsiveness but if I put Wow and tera as top tier, GW2 felt like I was running in cement and casting with extremely high latency. On top of that the lack of spell variation was incredibly dull and...

    Lots of changes, see Captain America finally got the nerf everyone was expecting. Happy about that since I can decide now if he's viable enough without quick block cheesing everything up. Happy to see def stat get some love, but it seems they just doubled and quadrupled everything? Wonder how...

    Yeah I gave up figuring out how the shards work. I have 3 alts around level thirty that I jump onto depending on my mood, and sometimes I get shards sometimes not, seemed a bit random and with the game the way it is I didn't question it too much. How is everyone getting on with dailies and...
