General Kenobi!

[cerulean kite]

[dreamy zinc]

You should know you saw them first last year Xd

[dreamy zinc]

Woop mob psycho S3

Your pfp guy looks like a horribly taxidermized corpse. I approve.

I want to forget I ever saw That 70s Show

[cerulean kite]

in the same vein ive seen all 9 seasons of cheers

[dry copper]

I saw so many episodes of Cheers, I started to sympathize for the horrible characters

[cerulean kite]

it was ok until Diane left

but that was season 3 so...

[dry copper]

Almost forgot they were all alcoholics airing their grievances out at a basement level bar.

[cerulean kite]

[dry copper]

and only person that had an accent was represented by a single mom that couldn't even find the time to brush her hair

[cerulean kite]

nah Cliff the mailman had a fairly genuine accent

i dont even remember what Kirstie Alley's character was named

or Woody Harrelson's

[dry copper]

Knowing her humility, probably kirstie lol

"Look who'se talking too"!

I actually really liked the look who'se talking movies.

[cerulean kite]

Woody was "Woody"

[dry copper]

I want to see a movie where all of the actors are adults doing normal adult things (nothing obscene), but all have the voices of adolescents.

[cerulean kite]

Kirstie was "Rebecca"

[dry copper]

I saw a commercial recently I think was for fruit rollup that did it, was hilarious

[cerulean kite]

if i was given the choice to wipe either cheers or that 70s show from my brain id prob still choose that 70s show though

[dry copper]

Wasn't fruit rollups. It was Haribu

You humor weird shit, you get weird shit

Don't give a loser the time of day

They'll ask for smokes

[idle saffron]

No point engaging with them, block

[dry copper]

Also I suck at making images alpha work properly...Must've copied as jpg or some shit one sec

[restive current]

Good point.

[restive current]

I strive not to, since I hate the feature of being able to block people...but you're right.

I just wish people had some basic behavioural standards.

[restive current]

Or rather...such standards were enforced regardless of any personal views.

[dry dirge]

why does every person like that use that weird laughing emoji? like all of them, without fail

[restive current]

Seems to be the 'kek' emoticon.

Apparently, makes things look more funny.

[restive current]

Well...the lady wondered why the emoticon's used.

So...just helping out.

[cerulean kite]

nice screenshots there though

[dry dirge]

itsa me

[dry copper]

Probably because it's insensitive at this point

[cerulean kite]

i should continue Forbidden West

erm, i'm a he

er

He's a her!

[restive current]

Alright, 'he asked'...

[restive current]

Play some extra for me.

[dry copper]

I forget that game

[restive current]

I can't play.

[dry copper]

Oh that's the horizon game

[cerulean kite]

oh those screenies are from HZD

also a fantastic game

[dry copper]

Yeah I'll prob never play that. I found horizon boring.

Beautiful but boring

[restive current]

Yea, I can't play HFW...

[restive current]

Boring why?

[cerulean kite]

no PS im assuming

[restive current]

And even if it was on PC...even HZD has troubles running.

[cerulean kite]

i see i see

i loved HZD

[dry copper]

You basically explore a post apocalyptic world of futuristic robots with no incentive full of to-do lists

[cerulean kite]

i started HFW but then ER came out a week later so

[restive current]

I mean...you yourself are the incentive.

[restive current]

I both love and hate HZD.

[dry copper]

Aloy is beautiful but I already have her so...I can just stare at her

[cerulean kite]

whats the big trex dinobot called?

[restive current]

Uh...I forgot.

[cerulean kite]

anyway i got myself trapped in a vault with one of them the first time i fought

one

[restive current]

Even plot-wise...you are the incentive.

[cerulean kite]

gave me some trouble

[restive current]

That's the thing, Horizon isn't a game which works as well in CQB in enclosed spaces.

[silver sparrow]

hfw was good but i'm craving a dlc
and ng+ which it has now

[dry dirge]

first thing that happened when i saw a female npc in medieval dynasty is a pop-up explaining how marriage works

[restive current]

Thunderjaw.

[cerulean kite]

my backlog has grown unfortunately, i really need to complete ER

i just completed squadrons but its not a very long story

[restive current]

IDK but I find staring at real people kind of creepy.

[dry copper]

I thought maybe Aloys actress wasn't some gorgeous woman...Turns out she's insanely gorgeous

[restive current]

As in...I feel creepy, not them...

[dry copper]

She's a model

[restive current]

I know.

[dry copper]

Looking at people as creepy you might as well be insulting them

[restive current]

...

[cerulean kite]

good for her and the beautiful ppl of the world

[restive current]

I mean...I'd rather stare at something non-real.

Because staring at a real person makes me feel weird.

[dry copper]

Looking at people who consent to being looked at isn't creepy. It's considerate of their existence in your space.

[quaint escarp]

that doesnt look like ow2

[restive current]

You know the difference between 'visually good' vs. 'uncanny', right?

[dry dirge]

actually it is

[restive current]

That, but in reverse.

[dry copper]

If you're seeing real people as if they're unreal, you might need to see someone about that.

Thats some scary shit

[restive current]

Oh, man... 🤦

Let's just...digress.

[cerulean kite]

Horizon games do be a little in the uncanny valley range with character interactions

[dry copper]

For sure

[cerulean kite]

thats my only critique personally

[dry copper]

Until you watch one of them clearly walk into a wall repeatedly

[coarse swift]

Idk, I understood this right away I think.

[dry copper]

Then you're like...Ah, yeah you're a robot

[coarse swift]

Its not a "creepy" feeling, its more just uncomfortable

I'd feel uncomfortable with myself if I stared at someone for a while

[restive current]

Exactly...because they're real...

OTOH, staring at a 3D model or a drawn image...it's like, "It's not real, it can't react, I can stare all day."

[restive current]

Thanks for saving me from MM's twisty interpretation.

[dry copper]

Creepy and uncomfortable are not a fair parallel comparison though.

Creepy has stigma

[restive current]

Honestly...not my fault if people stigmatize something.

Any-ways...

[dry copper]

You're the one that characterized it as creepy.

[cerulean kite]

anywho, yall consuming any other games and/or media

[restive current]

I said I feel creepy if I stare at a real person.

[dry copper]

I see

[restive current]

Because they're real and I keep feeling they'll jump right out at me.

[dry dirge]

medieval dynasty is good so far

[dry copper]

Hah they will

[restive current]

(Or just react)

[restive current]

Vivid imagination has its cons.

[coarse swift]

Its only like that for me when they turn their heads and stare back

[restive current]

Don't make it worse... 😆

https://americanliterature.com/author/richard-connell/short-story/the-most-dangerous-game

I was reading this earlier...and it was less reading as much as a movie going on in front of my eyes.

[cerulean kite]

i dont like when the shadows stare at me when i get sleep paralysis

[dry copper]

and you're both staring at each other and you forget to adjust your facial expression so now it goes from cordial to confrontational

[restive current]

Watching Zaroff and Rainsford duke it out right in front of me.

[dry dirge]

first order of business, set the forest a blaze

[dry copper]

I adopted a single gesture that almost every time deflates the staring ego

Nod

Just nod.

[cerulean kite]

up nod for friend
down nod for stranger

this is de way

[dry copper]

Full on salute for someone in uniform

[restive current]

Not saluting anyone, but nods work.

[dry copper]

Don't march in public

People don't understand it.

[cerulean kite]

if someone waves at me while driving i hit em back with the backhand peace sign

[dry copper]

Is that some dirty sex symbol?

[silver sparrow]

um

[cerulean kite]

nope its just like wow im a cool guy with the peace sign usin the back of my fingers

idk

[silver sparrow]

this is a euro insult iirc

[dry copper]

Gang signs!

[cerulean kite]

good thing i live in murica then

[restive current]

'Euro' insult?

[cerulean kite]

different hand gestures have different meanings

[silver sparrow]

https://tenor.com/blFze.gif

[cerulean kite]

in different places

what a diverse world we live in

[silver sparrow]

where is code

[restive current]

'Joke's on you, I don't use hands.'

[dry copper]

It's insulting to take your shoes off facing away from the door when you enter someones home in Japan or to show anyone the bottom of your feet at any time

[silver sparrow]

@snow zenith back me up bro

[restive current]

So...if I got a problem in my foot and show the bottom to a doctor...

[dry copper]

If you bow, don't bow too far or too low

[silver sparrow]

also don't shake hands with your left hand

[dry copper]

Also don't bow shallow or too short.

In some countries shaking with your left is considered insulting because they wipe their ass with that hand

[silver sparrow]

also do not fling poop at your guests

[restive current]

https://tenor.com/view/showing-respect-general-anupong-thirteen-lives-joined-hands-greeting-gif-26515988

Can't beat that.

[dry copper]

There are so many little things that can get you in trouble in foreign countries

[restive current]

Depending on the country, yea.

But...little research before-hand goes a long way.

[dry copper]

In the United States of America if you pronounce about like a normal person they accuse you of being Canadian and scream at you about boats.

[snow zenith]

hello

[silver sparrow]

two fingers up
what mean to you

[dry copper]

Depends on thee fingers

[coarse swift]

If I pronounce about like a normal person?

wat

[snow zenith]

like

[silver sparrow]

index/middle

[snow zenith]

like the V sign?

[silver sparrow]

ye

palm inwards

[dry copper]

You're V from V for Vendetta

A revolutionary

[snow zenith]

Palm inwards

2

Palm outwards just your standard V for victory, peace sign, fun sign, etc.

[dry copper]

See, even code is all up about the gang signs

[restive current]

Talking about pronunciation and speech...I hate it so much when people say/type 'should of' rather than 'should have'...like, I get that 'have' sounds like 'of' when speaking fast, but...seriously?

[snow zenith]

Bothers me when it's English natives doing that, otherwise meh.

[silver sparrow]

oh also
what if you show your elbow and slap it with your other hand

[restive current]

If you learnt the language...doesn't matter if you're a native or not...

Or maybe I'm just too pedantic.

[snow zenith]

Yea no idea what that is lol

[silver sparrow]

oh
i had a porto fren who said this was bad

[snow zenith]

you'd have to show me what that is because

i'm not seeing it rn

[silver sparrow]

hm

i will see what tenor can do

[restive current]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bras_d'honneur

This?

[snow zenith]

yea that's what i was thinking

but he mentioned slapping the elbow not the bicep so idk

[silver sparrow]

hm i was told hand to the outside of elbow

[snow zenith]

never seen that

must be a local thing

[silver sparrow]

i could be wrong

[snow zenith]

lots of different practices depending where you go in portugal

[cerulean kite]

here thats like when you want to throw a middle finger but are trying to be polite i guess

[snow zenith]

oh no

here doing that is worse than a middle finger

fear the mushrooms

Graphics...and the fact that the image is 'the same, just one without a character'.

Most of my games have screen-shots with low-quality graphics.

i find that guy really depressing tbh

Most people love the combat.

[dry dirge]

the combat is good, its just bs

[restive current]

But...personally, I find Horizon combat to be a problem.

I wouldn't say I'm a good gamer, but the game's combat is too fast-paced for me.

Same reason I hate Doom 2016 and Eternal.

Constantly dodging and running rather than fighting like a normal person.

[restive current]

This is exactly what I played for.

The Eternal Cylinder. Played the demo and had to think of NMS immediately

[dry dirge]

sauron?

i reinstalled elden ring, and within 20 minutes i got angry

screw madness

[tame cairn]

madness is very cool

tbh

but yea annoying

at first, the village can be a bitch

[tame cairn]

indeed

[dry dirge]

what can i do to counteract it

[tame cairn]

uh

i think theres a charm

trinket

whatever

[dry dirge]

sigh great

[tame cairn]

how far are you in the game?

This is my favorite madness

[austere lance]

Alright, I've reached the mid-to-end game part of Grounded where I can make much cooler equipment 😌

[tame cairn]

its so damn hard

or im just absolutely garbage

but i stg i dont remember it being this hard

[cerulean kite]

frenzy town

[dry copper]

tomato town

[austere lance]

Which difficulty

[tame cairn]

im on mild, but with acorn, or this rotten bee armor i found i get shit on by spiders

wolf spiders just…

sadness

[dry copper]

spider shit

[tame cairn]

yup

[austere lance]

Yeah you're not ready for wolf spiders til you're at least rocking black ant armor that you've upgraded a bunch

[tame cairn]

i still havent even been to any of the 3 other labs lol

[austere lance]

Or spider armor, lol. Spider armor is damn good, I was using it with the bee face mask til very recently. Didn't have the spider helmet cuz it required wolf spider fangs 😆

[tame cairn]

also wow

[austere lance]

The good thing is that killing your first wolf spider makes the others a bit easier, because your first wolf kill gives you the first tier of a perk that you're very much gonna appreciate

[tame cairn]

nice

[austere lance]

But yeah, I didn't start reliably fighting them til I had lvl 3 spider armor, lvl 3 bee mask, and Black Ant Sword+Shield (I highly recommend shields, btw)

[tame cairn]

im terrible so a shield would probably help

https://music.apple.com/us/music-video/jesus-of-suburbia/207192888

listening to this rn had to send

[austere lance]

For clearing the labs I recommend going Hedge-Pond-Haze-Black Ant Hill (don't do that last one til you've got the armor I mentioned and a at least lvl 3 Mosquito Needle)

[tame cairn]

figured pond was first

at first i was terrified of the water

[austere lance]

Pond is absolutely not, pond is hell 😆

[tame cairn]

didnt even want to enter it lmao

well yeah, thats any water area

lol

[austere lance]

Hedge is first, definitely. The blueprints you get from the Super Chip there are 👌for early game

[tame cairn]

oh yea, i got hedge finally

[austere lance]

I can't stress this enough, shields are how you win in this damn game

I tanked my way through the hell that is the sandbox just using the armor and sword+shield I mentioned

And parrying

Bless parrying

[tame cairn]

imagine if they added a centipede

talk about terrifying

[austere lance]

Speaking of parrying, I recommend going down under the hedge to the power outlet and looking for the...unfortunate soul there, lol. That's where you get a VERY good piece of equipment that'll save your life a billion times if you're good at parrying

[tame cairn]

cool

where at the hedge is that?

[austere lance]

Right side

[dry copper]

Nobody likes the OP dagger just sitting under a leaf near the start of the game?

[austere lance]

Big power outlet with a cord going into it

OP dagger is a stretch, LMAO

[tame cairn]

alright

[austere lance]

Daggers are a death sentence, just use a sword

[tame cairn]

does the bubble helmet thing give unlimited breathing?

[austere lance]

Straight up just Dark Souls the game, lol. Learn to parry, build your character's perks around parrying and sword+shield and stamina regen, and wear medium armor that helps with stamina

[tame cairn]

instead of just a boost

seems like it would

[austere lance]

Bubble helmet gives you like 160 seconds, 180 if you unlock a certain perk

[dry copper]

Can you fly tho

[tame cairn]

😔

[dry copper]

Can you tame bugs?

[austere lance]

You can use dandelion tufts as parachutes, lol

[tame cairn]

i think u can have pets

[dry copper]

I want a friend ant

[tame cairn]

theres like 3

im pretty sure

[dry copper]

Do you have to kill ants?

[austere lance]

And you can tame the three main passive bugs: Aphids, weevils, and I believe gnats. Each one boosts you in a different way if you keep them happy

[tame cairn]

i mean…you dont have to

i think

[dry copper]

I read if you get the ant armor without killing them, harvesting their dead - You can go into their nests without getting aggro

[austere lance]

You cannot tame ants, they're way too dedicated to their hills

[tame cairn]

fr

[austere lance]

You have to kill red ants to make red ant armor, it does indeed make at least the workers ignore you. Can't remember if soldiers do, I think so tho

[dry copper]

You can't harvest ant corpses killed by other bugs?

[tame cairn]

i think you can in the haze

[austere lance]

I guess you can, but that's annoying to do

Just kill the bastards yourself

[dry copper]

The idea is to play as a friend to the ants

LORD OF THE ANTS

[austere lance]

They don't care how you make the armor, just that you smell like them

[tame cairn]

i mean once you wear the ant armor anyways

yea

[austere lance]

Yeah uh, that's not happening with black ants 💀

At all

[tame cairn]

i havent even seen those ones before

[dry copper]

So we have the enemy defined

[austere lance]

They're fuckin lunatics

[dry copper]

do black ants and red ants fight?

[austere lance]

And like, at least 1.5x the health of red ones

They're on opposite sides of the yard separated by the Haze, so they don't interact

[dry copper]

Need an ant lord mod to command the army of the ants to ant lord bidding

[tame cairn]

thatd be great

twist

youre the ant queen

[austere lance]

If you murder enough of them they'll start laying eggs in their hill, which you need to make something very fun

[tame cairn]

i found out

but i found a place to blow up

forgot where it was

[austere lance]

There's quite a few places

Hell, you need boom booms to get into the Haze Lab the easy way and into the Black Ant Lab at all

Fuck that lab

[tame cairn]

well

also im on season 3 of the boys now

[austere lance]

God that place is hell, there's a reason I said to do it last

[tame cairn]

i love this show lol

[austere lance]

Gud 😌

[tame cairn]

rn im where hugh just told ||billy about nadia||

and went on grounded

thats like the end of the season im pretty sure actually 😅

[dry copper]

season?

You mean the game isn't finished?

[tame cairn]

season meaning the boys

[dry copper]

Ooooh

Whew

I almost had a heart attack

[tame cairn]

lol my bad

[austere lance]

So, your first orders of business are:
-Make a Weevil Shield and Mosquito Needle
-Make as much spider or ladybug armor as possible, depending on your play style
-Clear out the red ant hill to get the BURG.L chip in it (you'll thank me later)
-Make insect axe and hammer so you can start collecting milk molars
@tame cairn

[dry copper]

Couldn't believe Grounded would switch hitter on the 11th hour and start releasing in seasons

[tame cairn]

oh wait, you reminded me that i got that chip in the ant hill

insect stuff is hard to get, but i heard you can get it from spider egg sacs

gonna do that at the hedge i think for a bit

they changed the peep button

👌

[austere lance]

Yee

[tame cairn]

parry heal 😳

[austere lance]

Just kill orb weavers tbh. You'll be surprised how much a shield helps

Also yes 😆

[tame cairn]

thats great

[austere lance]

It's stupidly OP, it's carried me through the game 🤣

If you're rocking that charm and the Parry Master perk (especially once you've maxed the perk) you're basically God because every parry heals you a bunch and restores stamina

I can use 4 perks at once, so I'm always using Parry Master, Blademaster, Cardio, and my last one changes depending on what I'm doing

[tame cairn]

dang

[dry dirge]

maybe i'll give escapists 2 another try

i loved the first game

[glass plinth]

Log into ow, 2000 people wait, 41 mins, asks to setup account when i get through, asks me to reset game

Oh for @#$# sake

ngl, abs on a chick are hot

[narrow dragon]

😳

[glass plinth]

Hehe

I am excited to play

[narrow dragon]

[glass plinth]

I havent played o2 for 2 years

So itll be nice to mess around again

[dry dirge]

i shared it first 😠

[dry copper]

I absolutely love this dunkey review

[coarse swift]

https://tenor.com/view/kyoro-kyoro-00-bread-almighty-loaf-gif-12080888

[dry copper]

It's okay. I'm going to share it tomorrow.

https://tenor.com/view/toast-butter-breakfast-toaster-good-morning-gif-17642974

Gotta get that bread

[coarse swift]

Tell you what

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWsFgl-P3xg

In case you didnt see it earlier

[glass plinth]

Yeah, I dont mind OW2 has issues, I mean Overwatch issues after major releases are like NMS release issues

They just are expected

😛

[dry dirge]

"issues?"

we literally can't play the game

[glass plinth]

Yup

I couldnt play NMS after some patches for a week

3 or 4 times

I can remember after moira released it was reeeeeealy bad

lol

I dont expect them to have it Ironed out for a week or 2

[dry copper]

It's almost like they haven't fixed their broken shit

[dry dirge]

i just want to try the goddamn game

see how they've changed winston

[glass plinth]

Hehe, just come back in a week

[dry copper]

It's the monster of energy drinks

[glass plinth]

Its less a software issue , then its a hardware issue

at this stage anyways

[dry copper]

https://tenor.com/view/jesse-rubinoff-jesse-rubinoff-tim-and-friends-sportsnet-gif-25074267

[glass plinth]

Now ignore it

[dry copper]

Look at that. I recreated Overwatch, with faster loading

[glass plinth]

I take that back, it is a sofrware issue

Ugh

[dry dirge]

i mean, they got ddos'd

[dry copper]

Sure they did

[glass plinth]

Still are

[dry dirge]

why would blizzard ever lie about being ddos'd

[dry copper]

Because it saves face

It's a multimillion dollar project

Looking like a moron selling gold doesn't sell

[glass plinth]

Other then the fact they get ddosed often

[dry dirge]

couldn't they just say they're having non-specific issues?

[glass plinth]

In fact I can think of a ton of FPS games that get ddosed on released

[dry dirge]

as long as they don't explicitly say "sorry guys we screwed up" they'll be fine

[dry copper]

They could've said any number of things that would have been smarter

[glass plinth]

Other then, they are being ddosed

So why not just.. like say they are?

Oh yeah, they are

Sorry, being snarky

I mean that more in jest

[dry copper]

Or "We appreciate how large our fanbase is and the passion you all have for Overwatch. We're literally overwhelmed with your love. Please, love World of Warcraft as much as you love Overwatch. We're dyin here"

[glass plinth]

Hehehe

How many people play Wow now anyways?

Has to be millions still

Cant see them being below 5 million

Well especially with a new update coming

[dry dirge]

2 years ago but

[dry copper]

Their being accessible and functional across continents means everyone across the world is a potential customer (unless they've explicitly refused to sell to them - Talking to you Nicaragua!)

[glass plinth]

4.46 million

Not bad really

[dry copper]

Oop I'm lying. It's China, Indonesia, Thailand, Serbia, Turkey and Philippines.

[glass plinth]

I mean at the given age of the game.

Its surprising its held on this long

[dry copper]

Due to legal limitations in the above mentioned countries WoW doesn't even market or sell in those countries

[glass plinth]

Im keen to come back for this next update, just for nostlagia sake

[dry dirge]

i've never played WoW

i'm not getting a subscription for 1 game

[glass plinth]

I tested wow, in alpha 1

So, yeah I have a lot of connection to it

[dry copper]

I love tools like google image and tineye

[glass plinth]

Tineye?

Whats tineye?"

[coarse swift]

Reverse image search

[dry copper]

See a frame of a single shot you can identify what it's from

[glass plinth]

Oh cool

Ive never used that before

[coarse swift]

Place the image in tineye, it'll tell you all its sources if there are any

[glass plinth]

Sounds useful!

[dry copper]

and sort of by oldest if you're so inclined

So earliest iteration identified

[coarse swift]

Very useful, like when you're trying to figure out if someone's being honest about art being theirs

I've used it for that reason

[dry copper]

This is from a promotional piece for World of Warcraft shadowlands, published June 12th 2020

[glass plinth]

Wasnt in the game back at that point

I think I left after the Pandas lol

[dry copper]

I was curious, screen captured and posted it on tineye

[glass plinth]

I played for so long, 3 years pre release

5 or more after release

Wasnt really a game, up tell the last year of alpha though

[dry copper]

I played wow when it first started and a year after release. I got really bored with the grind.

[glass plinth]

I was a merchant

[dry copper]

I was a murderer

[glass plinth]

So I suppose, I enjoyed the socialization

Eh, to each their own

I still remember when 25 gold a day profit was insane lol

I think for me, when they closed my server and merged it, thats when I lost steam

[dry copper]

It wasn't horrible until it hit me how repetitive it was doing these highly organized runs on dungeons to get gear for the raid, to run another dungeon to get gear for a raid on another dungeon to get gear for a raid on another dungeon....to the point I hated the game

[glass plinth]

I can see that issue

I dont get bored

Not in my mental capacity to be bored

So grinds dont bug me

[dry copper]

I briefly played the game again when pandas became a thing...and quickly quit

I wasn't bored. I was over the grind.

[glass plinth]

I took a year break middle the 5 years

So I could play another game

[dry copper]

Sisyphus might like pushing a rock up a hill. I prefer to not.

[glass plinth]

Were you social at all?

[dry copper]

I was in a guild. Being social was all the game had

[glass plinth]

I find those like me, even those who dont get bored, didnt stay long without the social connections

I suppose, for some

[dry copper]

The guild was too raid focused

[glass plinth]

I have to say though, SWTOR was a better experience

After Wow

I was a merchant there as well

fantastic rp community

But went back, effectively dead rp wise

Wasnt much reason to play

[dry copper]

One game that was pretty cool with raids: Age of Conan

[glass plinth]

Never played

Oh wait! I did

I remember it had issues with my PC

wouldnt run well

[dry copper]

By the end of my play through of the game I'd made a solid healer role which was rare at end game so raids were always welcoming me, but again...the repeat plays got into a grind

I liked AoC for the decapitation and kill animations

They were not shy about gore

or boobs

[narrow dragon]

What are you talking about boobs.

[dry copper]

The weird feature in Age of Conan

Everything else made sense

Then boobs out of the blue

[narrow dragon]

🧐

[glass plinth]

I was thinking besides WoW, Eve, Gw2, the other MMORPG I enjoyed was Eq2

the community to this day is so damned tight

[dry copper]

They must have thought it was a clever sales pitch being no other mmo had boobs

All yall pretend to boob. AoC boobed

Probably what led to the creation of Conan Exiles

[glass plinth]

OH YEAAAH!

I remember another MMO i loved

Anarchy Online

[dry dirge]

warcraft has a ton of boob

[glass plinth]

Man, that game was ludicrously detailed

[dry copper]

Warcraft has side boob at best

[glass plinth]

Wacraft isnt exactly sexualized

I mean sort

Not really

You ever get to play Star Wars galaxy MM?

pre cu

[dry copper]

Yes. Was part of a huge guild. We had our own town in a desert on a planet, with our own bar. I was one of the dancers in our band of misfits.

[glass plinth]

Really?

Hrmm tatooine was a fun planet indeed

My guild was smaller. We were weapons manufacturers

Mostly pistols

[dry copper]

I remember after CU came out because my character had all his entertainment skills maxxed they gave me a max level character, because they'd essentially made me a whole other class

[glass plinth]

sigh

I try not to remember leaving

it was just such a unique game, for awhile

[dry copper]

I loved the entertainment class

[dry dirge]

galaxies or old republic?

[glass plinth]

I was a pistoleer, bothan

Galaxies

[dry dirge]

ah

never played it

[glass plinth]

I honestly miss that game

[dry dirge]

or old republic

[dry copper]

I loved you could actually run your own towns with events and everything

[glass plinth]

SWG was one of those games you have a real reason to socialize too!

The entertainment system was fantastic!

[dry copper]

You built your own homes

You decorated

[dry dirge]

i'd love an mmo that really scratched that itch

[glass plinth]

You manufactured, mined, hunted. It was everything

all at once

[dry copper]

It was Star Wars The Sims

[glass plinth]

and it encouraged socialization so much

You have purpose

[dry copper]

You lived in the Star Wars Universe

[glass plinth]

Yup

[dry dirge]

an actual sims mmo that wasn't run by EA would be awesome

[dry copper]

As an entertainer, I had to socialize to level

Social XP was my bread and butter

[glass plinth]

You wanted to attract

Hell, I had a friend who essentially ran a brothel lol

[dry dirge]

oh, you guys do know there are private servers for galaxies, right?

[solid lynx]

What kind of conversation did I stumble into?!?!

[glass plinth]

Yeah, but its really hard to go back. It was fun in contect to that time period

Eh, just one that describes the absolute weird community SWG had

[solid lynx]

Swg?

[dry dirge]

discussion about animal crossing

[glass plinth]

Maybe not as weird as BDO

[dry copper]

Star Wars Galaxies

[solid lynx]

Ayo

[glass plinth]

One of the best MMOrpgs

[dry dirge]

i would've tried BDO, but i despise gender-locked classes

[glass plinth]

I enjoyed the time I played a lot, I was a ship builder

It was quite enjoyable

But, I quit after 2 years

Felt id run my course

[dry copper]

Imagine if someone took SWTOR and gave you base building, proper mining, a deep crafting system and added musical instruments that you could actually play and you've got most of SWG

[glass plinth]

Since then I havent touched a mmorg

[dry copper]

Minus the space

[dry dirge]

there's this "project gorgon" game that looks really promising

I was a big fan of Everquest Foundation, then that collapsed entirely

[austere lance]

I'm here for RPGs, lol. Not MMOs tho

[solid lynx]

Yep

[glass plinth]

You mite have felt differently about SWG Taco

[dry dirge]

although i question their reasoning for making the game look bad on purpose

[glass plinth]

It was a much different game then most mmorpgs

[dry copper]

I wonder if Everquest Foundations will be revisited with UE5 out now

[glass plinth]

Hrmm

No

Unfortunately

[dry dirge]

probably my most played mmo was ROTMG

[solid lynx]

Rotmg?

[dry dirge]

Realm Of The Mad God

[solid lynx]

Ah

[glass plinth]

Most played for me, Eve and Wow

[dry copper]

Sorry it wasn't called foundations. It was called Everquest Next

[glass plinth]

Eve because I ran a corp

and Wow, Because I was a tester for it, and it was home

[dry dirge]

i like the concept of mmos, i just haven't found any i liked

[solid lynx]

For me most played is probably Eve as well

[dry copper]

I once bought a game account for a game I was really into when I was little. Most I ever spent on a game ever.

[solid lynx]

Only liked it bc space

[dry dirge]

i would've played EVE, but i wish it wasn't space

[solid lynx]

So we are opposites then

[dry copper]

The only game I ever paid money for a game account for: Neocron

[solid lynx]

I adamantly refuse to spend money on accounts

[dry copper]

When it first came out, Neocrons devs were awesome

They would put a ton of effort into securing RP events. They popped into the game as boss enemies to be killed, like world bosses

Some GM though are stupid and forget they're supposed to lose.

[dry dirge]

the only space mmo i would be interested in would be a star trek one

man i wish we had a star trek mmo... that wasn't the star trek mmo

[dry copper]

When you get an OP GM on a Godlike power trip flexing on everyone who are already grossly outmatched....the fight ends quick

The engine used for Star Trek Online is garbage, yet what they've done with it is absolutely incredible. I'm honestly shocked they managed to pull any quality out of that antiquated turd machine

[dry dirge]

star trek online just isn't fun for me

[dry copper]

Ive had a lifetime account for it most of its existence. It's not fun for most anyone, because they handle gameplay development like a chore and leave players to make the game worth spending any time in

Their stories are always bug filled messes with more cinematics than gameplay and their characters are almost always some ancient cameo tribute to current show characters

Or last gen characters

[dry dirge]

i should try d&d online

[dry copper]

You should and tell them you're casting magic missile.

looks pretty good... but i doubt i can get it to run on my modern pc

[dreamy zinc]

For me ESO and GW2 i liked the most

You can at least play solo

[dry dirge]

i like GW2, but my friend isn't really the biggest fan + i move at a snails pace

[dreamy zinc]

ESO has a lot of funnquests

[dreamy zinc]

GW2 at snails pace is fine

[dry dirge]

it feels like i take an hour to get to the shopkeeper

[dreamy zinc]

Powerleveling takes no effort if need be

[dreamy zinc]

Don't see an issue there

[dry dirge]

no i don't mean the pacing

i mean my characters movement speed is just too slow

[dreamy zinc]

Game literally has vista to explore

[dreamy zinc]

Lol

Can't recall if you could sprint

[dry copper]

Just finished reinstalling ESO today, went back in and was immediately overwhelmed with how much you can do

Sensory overload does not feel good

[dreamy zinc]

I played it when it came out

Was great then

[dry dirge]

i've tried and i've tried to get into ESO, but the combat kills any interest i have in it

[dry copper]

I still have my pre-order bonuses too

[dreamy zinc]

Only thing that sucks is character balancing

[dry copper]

Even now?

I heard they did a big change this year

[dreamy zinc]

Templars were OP for long time

[dreamy zinc]

No clue haven't played in ages

[dry dirge]

every enemy feels like a damage sponge its awful

[dry copper]

I was told they made it so you can basically OP any class

Rebalanced skills

Every single character on my account was respecced when I logged in

[dry dirge]

as the end of dragon's dlc is going free on prime gaming soon... i might get back into gw2

Those racing beetles are incredibly siiiiick

but again, my friend barely plays it

Yeah the jump puzzles were very well designed.

and if i'm not playing with my friends... what's the point?

[dry copper]

Medieval Dynasty has no toilet

[dry dirge]

[dry copper]

The most important part of the medieval experience

[dreamy zinc]

Bucket

[dreamy zinc]

You only need a rock

[dry copper]

Kill deer

[dreamy zinc]

[dry copper]

Apparently you can shoot them in the head for insta kills

[dry dirge]

i have a pet rabbit at home

[dreamy zinc]

Mmkay

[dry copper]

Your rabbit would want you to kill rabbits. They'd be jealous

[dreamy zinc]

I would not care XD

[dry dirge]

[dry copper]

Ignoring the social commentary of games that often speak on real world events and games that do this - What is the most offensive game ever made?

[dreamy zinc]

Postal i think

[dry copper]

So remove games that are offensive because they're talking about something in society going on

Postal is pretty offensive

Never played it myself

[dreamy zinc]

Me neither

[dry copper]

I only know of it by reputation

[dry dirge]

i've never really played an offensive game, but postal comes to mind, despite having never played it

[dreamy zinc]

All i know postal gameplay is be a dick

[dry copper]

Go postal

basically

[dry dirge]

[dreamy zinc]

Thats cause US vs Russia

[dry copper]

If the call of duty thing is only there because of the airport thing I'd disagree

[dreamy zinc]

War topic are controversial

[dry dirge]

bonetown seems pretty offensive tbh

[dreamy zinc]

Not offensive

[dreamy zinc]

Controversial, not offensive

[dry copper]

I know the game goads you into being a terrorist but it never makes you sympathize with the cause

[dry dirge]

from a quick google search

[dreamy zinc]

Im mean to todays standard any ww2 game

[dry copper]

Consider Mario who murders countless turtles just to get passed them....ones he doesn't even need to even....THEY DON'T EVEN CHASE HIM!

[dreamy zinc]

Cause they show depictions of nazi flags in nazi germany

Sigh

[dry dirge]

they chase him in the later ones, glad to see nintendo justifying his war crimes

[dry copper]

Trying to think of how offense has changed in games over the years

With call of duty they seemed to try and push an envelope that for me failed....at least initially.

[dreamy zinc]

Sadly companies think to much of your everyday journalist who doesn't play games

Looks at BFV

[dry dirge]

BFV?

ah, battlefield five

[dreamy zinc]

Yes

[glass plinth]

Finally made it into ow2, man Im rusty

At least moira still is moira

[dry dirge]

GOOD FOR YOU cries

[dreamy zinc]

I think blizzard didn't plan server needs well

[dry dirge]

[dreamy zinc]

And it ain't even weekend

[dry dirge]

they've been ddos'd

[dreamy zinc]

But diesnt OW or OW2 use p2p?

[dry dirge]

(probably)

[glass plinth]

Well they have to setup tertiary servers now

TO block the log spam from bots

its a mess

[dry dirge]

ow2 isn't p2p anymore

ow1 was

[dreamy zinc]

Thats hard to achieve

[dry dirge]

wait, p2p means pay to play, right?

[dreamy zinc]

Peer 2 peer

[dry dirge]

ah

then idk

[dreamy zinc]

Ie no real server needed to play a match
