# solid sun Aren’t they all basically the same game

Borderlands itself is a godly franchise, Borderlands 1 kinda meh, Borderlands 2 the best of all time. Borderlands 3 they went really downhill, Tiny Tina Wonderlands was kinda shit, now Borderlands 4 is abysmall dogshit. Not only storywise but especially Performance wise. Randy Bitchford (how I like to call him) is a money hungry lil piece of dogshit. The Borderlands movie was also just pile of shit. Fucking shit this guy

Or did you just go to Reddit

I can't say I watched the movie. I did meet someone once who knew someone who did though.

#

I thought the DnD borderlands game was pretty fun. I missed Handsome Jack but the game was fun

bl1 vs bl2 and arguing which is better is exactly akin to arguing if doom 1 is better than doom 2

I liked Tina for sure.

In all of tww, i never experienced not getting accepted into a key as any tank, even on alts. If it trickles down low, its people you dont want to play with anyways

I think if anyone experiences declines as a tank in 12’s, it’s probably a case of being less qualified more than class

round pendant

There's so few tanks you get accepted even if you're underqualified

coarse bay

Usually ya

I think declines only start happening around like 14-15s and up when you're not a meta class or have shit rio compared to the leader

Like, you WILL have a harder time getting into non-weekly key levels as a monk

but also just run your own key it's not that bad

I get salty when I get declined on my alt dps because I'm undergeared yet I top dps every key monkahmm

but ofc they don't know that

round pendant
#

but puggers are stupid and see a B tier tank and will wait for the S tier tank

#

regardless of the quality of the player

drowsy comet
#

I hope brews stay how they are. Think the current tanks look okay. Prot pally needs defense buff, pwarr needs bit damage. Gdruid looks great, Vdh is fine. Bdk needs idk a rework or like an overhaul

coarse bay
round pendant
#

yea

#

And ofc the data-based tier lists reflect those biases too in terms of what people are playing

#

so the key hosts look at tier lists and see X spec is "low tier" and won't invite it

#

it's all self fulfilling

drowsy comet

it's THE carry tank cause op util

it's squishiness only matters giga late where your team shouldn't need carrying

#

I know nothing about midnight tho, just speaking like last 2 expacs

drowsy comet
#

Yea thats why Im going in as Prot Pally ngl. I studied the spec the last few weeks on and off lol. And I will mosz likely only be running +15 max, dont wanna push further as I dont care abt the title. Only thing I care is like the mount xeos

coarse bay
#

I also dont do the keys where any of it matters, but i talk and play with people who do

Should I go for weapon or shield/armour crafting first you think for my own gear crafting?

coarse bay
#

If youre talking about crafting specialization trees

tacit viper
#

Yeah I am. Since knowledge is gated I was torn on what to focus

#

My mate seems to think weapons since I can also target dps players for gold

coarse bay
#

Weapons might make more gold at the start, im not a big crafter so not too sure

#

But the way i look at it if its for personal use is wep will get you 1 craft, and maybe alts and recrafts

tacit viper
#

Thats true

#

I could also craft my ret pal weapon....

#

Or guardian druid wep

#

Forgot about that

lusty grotto
#

our first craft is shield though (unless you can get Imperator or Belo'ren on farm on mythic)

#

so

#

yeah for gold, go weapon

#

just try to go for a branch that can cover you and your alts

#

and the market

#

but honestly i wouldnt worry too much about it

tacit viper

Im probably overthinking it haha. There will surely be people in my guild or server that can craft anything I need

#

@lusty grotto what’s a rent a datacenter for

solid sun
#

I didn’t anticipate multiple links

lusty grotto
#

it was a gaming talking point a few weeks ago

#

obviously everyone is against it

#

we own less and less every time because its all tied to a sub service

#

music, movies, shows, gaming, and if we give in, our own computers

#

we no longer own cds, dvds, blu rays, etc

solid sun
#

How is a computer on a cloud

lusty grotto
#

you stream the video

lusty grotto
#

and you send back controller and kb+mouse inputs

#

this isnt something new

#

geforce now has been there for ages

#

its the same way you stream from steam to your tv

#

even consoles do it since the last gen

solid sun
#

I’ve never done that tbf

#

So you start up a subscription service to whatever company and then on your tv you have an app for it and direct it to stream wow to your device?

#

In this hypothetical future where we no longer have home PC’s

lusty grotto
#

sure

solid sun
#

Is it safe to assume that the performance would be worse

lusty grotto
#

no

#

unless your connection is shit

#

the biggest factor is latency

#

as in you press a button and it takes x ms to register

#

performance isnt a big deal

solid sun
#

Interesting

lusty grotto
#

interesting in that we will own nothing

#

and instead will be sub slaves

#

because at least steam doesnt charge a sub

solid sun
#

It’s interesting that it wouldn’t just inherently be performing worse

lusty grotto
#

but streaming services, spotify/apple music do

mighty valley
#

it's interesting since while the input latency problem has been solved for a lot of people

#

a fully cloud model is really writing off a whole lot of people in areas with less developed internet infrastructure

solid sun
#

It kinda blows me away that like

lusty grotto
#

i would argue against the latency problem, especially if you play competitive

#

but for whatever non-competitive it is more than fine, just not with dogshit net

solid sun
#

Wow installed on my rig inside my house isn’t just inherently going to perform better than wow on a cloud streaming into my house

lusty grotto
#

it doesnt work with WoW

#

and not only would you have to pay TWO subs

solid sun
#

Sub any game in for WoW

#

Tomb Raider

#

Idc

lusty grotto
#

it depends on your hardware

#

also btw that Bezos thing came at the heels of RAM going up in price due to data centers

solid sun
#

Yeah I’m not really touching on most of it. It goes without saying (or should) that not owning things and having more subs sucks

#

But the technology aspect of it is definitely surprising to me

lusty grotto
#

you learn something new every day

solid sun
#

This blurb is also interesting

#

“Microsoft has made no secret of its plans to create an "AI first" Windows, with tensions between users and shareholders essentially reaching fever pitch over the last year or so. Microsoft (oft-nicknamed Microslop in the AI era) has been leveraging its OpenAI-powered chatbot Copilot in a variety of half-baked integrations across its various products.”

lusty grotto
#

thats just old news

solid sun
#

Specifically the part where users and shareholders are at extreme odds

#

You’d think somehow that would matter

lusty grotto
#

this is old news rhino

#

look at the copilot button

#

look at it here in notepad

#

we all fucking hate it

#

trust

mighty valley
#

i keep turning it off like swatting flies

lusty grotto
#

microsoft has gone back a bit on it and listed ways to turn it off

#

im really surprised youre learning about this now considering we've mentioned it here a few times

mighty valley
#

rhino's out there digging trenches in real life

#

they haven't put copilot in the excavators yet

solid sun
#

I mean

#

A good chunk of the tech stuff mentioned here means absolutely nothing to me

#

The only reason I know what vibe coding is, is because there was a meme debate about it for like two hours

#

And I still had to ask questions mid debate

lusty grotto
#

we mentioned the microsoft thing in that discussion

solid sun
#

Yeah you mentioned copilot sucked

#

Tbh with you I thought copilot was Microsoft grok

#

I didn’t know it was the new clippy

lusty grotto
#

i didnt say copilot sucked, i said that microsoft putting it everywhere sucks

mighty valley
#

(i think it sucks)

lusty grotto
#

copilot is just chatgpt/anthropic

#

by itself it doesnt suck

#

having it absoutely everywhere does

#

if i wanna use it ill use the one app, not in office, not in notepad, not in paint

mighty valley
#

yeah i can imagine it being useful

lusty grotto
mighty valley
#

i think the overall long term effects of widespread use

lusty grotto
#

like here

mighty valley
#

will be not good

#

also the financials are just fucking stupid

#

but that's everything

lusty grotto
#

yea

solid sun
#

Well also

#

Just for clarity here

#

The blurb I highlighted is surprising to me because there’s a giant rift between the users and the shareholders

lusty grotto
#

yes everyone is betting on AI

solid sun
#

In my industry if the homeowners are pissed, we be fixing shit

lusty grotto
#

every higher up is betting on AI

#

the consumers arent

solid sun
#

We don’t get to ignore our customers

lusty grotto
#

look at the date on that blurb though

#

they've been slowly pulling back from that

solid sun
#

Is Firefox owned by an ai supporter

lusty grotto
#

the new CEO is an AI pusher

#

that news is a result of him saying

mighty valley
lusty grotto
#

that they would put AI everywhere

mighty valley
#

and then the people who invested in it will be rich forever

#

it's like a supercharged version of the Uber model where they just sunk money into cheap rides for a long time until they could kill the competition

mighty valley
#

and then when people have no alternatives, they can make the prices high and the competition gone

#

and the experience worse

lusty grotto
#

whats happening is kind of a repeat of the web bubble

#

like harrow said

solid sun
#

Lmao

lusty grotto
#

there will be one king

solid sun
#

There’s a Mozilla manifesto

lusty grotto
#

in the web bubble google became the one

mighty valley
#

the big question with this bubble is... will that breakthrough actually happen

lusty grotto
#

so all of these companies are pumping cash in hopes to become the next bubble king

mighty valley
#

is there a big turning point

#

because as is, the value people are getting is nowhere remotely near worth the money being sunk into it

lusty grotto
#

when the ROIs start becoming corrosive

#

but thats up to them to decide

#

if one of them backs off, it might send a domino effect

#

a chain reaction, but i guess domino effect might fit too

solid sun
#

How are they supposed to receive an ROI

#

from copilot

lusty grotto
#

usage

#

and human data

solid sun
#

They get money if I click the paint copilot button?

lusty grotto
#

this thing

#

also chatgpt announced advertisement

#

they are betting huge on the fact that most users will flock to just one

mighty valley
#

plus people subscribing for premium features plus corporate package deals etc

lusty grotto
#

your questions are information

solid sun
#

Harrow i stg

mighty valley
#

if we could somehow go back in time and make internet habit data harvesting impossible/illegal we coulda avoided the Bad Ending

solid sun
#

Make me look up a word one more time

mighty valley
#

i just got done reading moby dick

#

reading books IS possible

solid sun
#

Why is the information a ROI

toxic pewter
lusty grotto
#

its not

solid sun
#

Doesn’t information help them make their AI stuff ubiquitous

lusty grotto
#

ROI is return of investment Rhino

mighty valley
#

information helps them target ads at you to make you buy stuff

solid sun
#

I know what it stands for. But the initial answer I received was about information

#

So I’m trying to connect the dots

lusty grotto
#

any data they get, helps train the models

#

the better trained the model, the "better" it is so they do things the other models cant (geminii vs chagpt vs claude etc)

#

so their understanding is that people will flock to that one

#

"our model just cured cancer, come on over!"

#

meanwhile most people dont give a shit

#

they are just greedy and betting on having the one model to rule them on

#

being completely out of touch

#

that being said, the model that hallucinates less, will probably get more usage, but is that something we as consumers care about?

#

like nobody gives a serious shit about grok

#

the only reason its up in the pentagon and other places is because... well... if i say something it becomes political, but it goes without saying

mighty valley
#

it makes me such a doomer that "our website robot puts kids in bikinis" does fucking nothing to its financial standing

#

if anything it only makes it more likely to get adopted in the places you're describing lol

lusty grotto
#

well i mean the pentagon contract def gave X some big cash

if he's truly committed he should let us feed his body into the computer

lusty grotto
#

ngl but i kinda wish this AI thing ended like Dune

#

where the AI war ended with us destroying every single AI related garbage everywhere and instead we super developed human minds

#

which is oddly similar to foundation hint hint

only if you stopped reading after frank died

So what’s the play when AI progresses

Do we retire from gaming and build a community in the mountains

lusty grotto

did our grandparents retire to the mountains and live technology free?

That may have been the most depressing Q and A of all time in this discord

lusty grotto

yeah profitability will drive it

mighty valley

do you wanna bet on AI?

lusty grotto
#

thats literally hallucinating

solid sun
#

Can I ask why

#

Like if I told you my pc shut off and you asked if my cat knocked the cord loose from the outlet

#

You didn’t hallucinate it

lusty grotto
#

i feel like i went over this with you already Rhino

solid sun
#

I feel like with every question I step closer to sparking a Nimchip rant

jagged gust
#

I just wanted a segue into complaining about my computer tbh

lusty grotto
#

but to be fair no its not really hallucinating

#

i just like to say it is

jagged gust
#

And honestly you're right to say that.

lusty grotto
#

models hallucinating means that they keep suggesting the one thing you told them is not relevant or correct

#

let me rephrase that

solid sun
#

I knew it wasn’t hallucinating

#

If you keep calling things hallucinating that isn’t hallucinating you’re gonna discredit real claims of hallucinating and the clankers will win

lusty grotto
#

like if i have an issue with a Linux distro and i specify its X distro (like Ubuntu), and then it tells me to do some Windows related garbage

solid sun
#

I thought harrow would appreciate my comment

mighty valley
#

If this server would let me react to it I would've

#

but yeah i do sorta think the term "hallucinating" is kinda giving them too much credit

#

anthropomorphizing them more than they deserve

#

but it's the term in use, so

#

it's fine

lusty grotto
#

thats fair and i cant really disagree

toxic pewter
#

leveling a priest and they just kicked a lvl 10 tank

#

and they arguing with me lol

#

cuz i was like 'and people wonder why no one wants to tank'

jagged gust
#

arent lvl 10 tanks like the most broken thing in the game?

#

in a good way

mighty valley
#

i'm not really up to date on the lvl10 meta

#

last i was playing lvl 10 arcane mage was fucking insane

#

pulled aggro real bad but it didn't matter

because everything was dead

i enjoy max's tier lists

I talk about what was, not that could have been

Crit clowning on arms would have been funny tho

frozen berry
#

Has there been a worse expansion PR launch than Midnight? I can’t think of a less hyped expansion than the current

lusty grotto
#

PR is there

#

whether its hyped or not that depends on where youre looking

#

also hype is very often not good

#

and the addon friction obviously is contributing

#

does it matter though?

#

if you play you play, if you dont you dont

#

im personally hyped after the crest changes

#

still not preordering because i dont support preordering digital copies but.. im not gonna regret buying it

drowsy comet
#

Man ngl, I kinda fw 80s/90s Rock/Metal. Idk why but this old music kinda has the groove in it, compared to newer Metal stuff. Wish I would have experienced this era in person 😔

frozen berry
lusty grotto
#

new people are excited about housing

#

you just dont see the hype in these circles because we barely care about it

frozen berry
#

Fair enough, I couldn’t care less about housing

lusty grotto
#

this past week my discord has all resubbed and they arent really endgame players

#

people that barely played alts are leveling alts

frozen berry
#

My discord is the opposite

#

They’re waiting to see what it’s going to be like before they resub

#

And that’s normally not the case

dusky canopy
#

Well back in their prime I mean

lusty grotto
#

yeah my point was that perspective is tricky

#

im not saying that its hyped at all, just to clear

#

but it def boils down to the big feature being housing and the addon purge cancelling all the hype around it when referring to WoW in very general terms and not to a specific sub pop of the game

dusky canopy
#

Housing isn’t really a big thing for me personally but I’m happy for all the folks who are excited about it

drowsy comet
#

Housing is okay I guess

#

Im more excited for an WoW Candy Crush game keks

#

man 4 days till Midnight..

#

it feels like a dream

lusty grotto
#

4 days?

#

you mean 8

#

unless youre a 90 dollar preorder andy

#

shame on you if so

toxic gyro
lusty grotto
#

it hasnt been a bad launch for several expansions

#

so i dont know about that

vast epoch
#

Was about to say there was 0 issue on other early access and launches

lusty grotto
#

you do whatever you wanna do but supporting a 90 dollar preorder early access is badge

#

and that was very lil gup specific

vast epoch
#

Ey atleast it has 1 gametime month included xd

lusty grotto
#

there's obvious value in the 90 dollar one, since it includes a free month (which was standard way back when anyway)

jagged pier
#

4 days and half the specs dont even work or are good or fun to play

vast epoch

Yes, out of his own gold lol

lusty grotto

and what the fuck raid prep are you gonna do in 4 days with 0 content

#

ok well

#

if he is then thats fine

#

wait brew

#

are you doing splits?

dusky canopy
#

Yep only two characters

lusty grotto
#

oh man

#

ok now it makes sense

#

i aint never gonna do that shit

#

ever again

dusky canopy
#

I think we’re only doing it for heroic

#

My split will not being doing M+

lusty grotto
#

we did it for heroic too

#

oh

dusky canopy
#

I’ll do the m0 tour on it though

lusty grotto
#

ok thats much better

dusky canopy
#

During prep week

#

Makes sense really he breaks it down in his guide

#

Sling shots 4pc acquisition

lusty grotto
#

yeah that was the reasoning on my last guild

#

its just total overkill

#

especially with 3 whole different raids

#

but hey who knows maybe you guys will do much better with it

dusky canopy
#

If it means I get my 4pc as early as possible I don’t mind

#

Getting 4pc week 1 so I can reap the benefits in week 2 in keys is amazing

#

Doubt that’ll happen this tier though

#

Two warriors

#

And not only that but we share with DKs now

#

You know DKs get prio lmao

#

Probably a feels bad gearing season for me this time around but time will tell

lusty grotto
#

all im gonna say is that i didnt think it was worth it

#

well not think

#

it just wasnt worth it

dusky canopy
#

Yeah what it’s worth is hard to say idk really but I just enjoy raiding so I’m happy to do it

#

More exp too for when we get to the harder versions

lusty grotto

in theory

But I can’t remember Jakey ever being this down on an expansion

And this all coincides with him taking a break for the season

There are lots of reasons to take breaks

How much agree with accuracy of this? Brew has never been good so I suspect blizz will come in and swiftly kill it before expansion if its right

brew was literally the quasi default tank all of BFA

oh thank god pepega is back

only with the DF tree rework Brew fell largely out of favour because a lot more specs got a lot of tools and tank damage/buff matrix became a lot more important
