Or stuff that only devs can give out, like the Riot Games charm in Valorant

I don't think it's normal... Come on? .... Why they can't get these MTX for free?
twilit mountain
Like WoTC gives their employees exclusive titles and avatars in MTGA
sand wigeon
I don't think it's normal... Come on? .... Why they can't get these MTX for free...
Because they’re still just normal people
And if devs aren’t charged for anything it encourages them to jack up the price
Which worsens it for the average consumer
Keeping them closest to the average consumer creates the best synergy between devs and players
Plus, there are plenty of devs who don’t play the games they work on
junior stirrup
To me it makes sense that you can't get something that others consider valuable, especially if it's something time-limited like supporting the game before launch or otherwise having something rare.
junior oyster

It's the equivalent of working in a supermarket and the employer going take whatever you want as much as you want

TBF if the supermarket was good, they would do that
Supermarkets have so much waste

junior oyster
True but that's a different point lol

Supermarket could also get sued if they give away something and someone gets food poisoning from it

Yeah pretty much. I worked in a rather large grocery store and still had to pay. I got discounted, sure, but they didn't just give me it for free (outside of break room snacks and coffee to make shifts easier)

Counterpoint: don’t give it away
Employees have cards. Let the cards make purchases of items labelled “discarded” for $0.
That makes it a purchase, just a heavily discounted one, which means it falls on the item provider as normal

🤔 they'll have employee discount but can't get them for free. I don't know supermarket but IKEA is following this rule
sand wigeon
You could track batch number that way for recalls, too
junior oyster
I'm aware of discounts
sand wigeon
And if an employee gets a pear for free and then they eat a rotten pear that is in fact not the supermarkets fault lol
The employee should not have eaten a rotten pear
fierce moth
You don't want something special to let your hideout looks more unique?

And if something is contaminated, that IS in fact the supermarket’s fault and they should get sued for it

Yea I wasn't sure of the entire thing but that's kinda what I meant
Thanks for explaining it though
gilded elm
Basically in the US, the FCC carves up these little monopolies/duopolies amongst all of the ISPs so that everyone has their "turf"
So like every 30 mile radius or whatever is a turf that belongs to 1 or 2 ISPs.
sand wigeon
I notice people forgetting that the USA is basically if the EU combined into one super-country and struggle to conceptualize that each state in the USA is not like a region or county, but a whole entire country

It's super dumb.
So we do actually have a decent number of ISPs overall, but almost everyone in the country never has more than 1 or 2 choices in their area.

In the decade I worked at the uni I think we had two digger-caused outages of networking and one amusing work order incident.
We had geographically opposite network links for a reason, and they may not be laid closer than like 15 meters from each other.

junior stirrup
We lost both within minutes once leading to complete network blackout.
Somehow, someone, somewhere, had managed to make a work order to the staff at the telco building downtown to disconnect both of our feeds from the patch panels at the interchange.

My luck is actually anomalous levels of bad for the most part, I've played every single PoE1 league since early 2017 and have never owned a mirror and I've only ever dropped three T0 items. Ever. Even during Affliction, where I had a 4 to 5 mirror value MF Chieftain I made all my money by liquidating things because I couldn't rely on raw drops.
I did the best unique farm in the game during Settlers, a strategy that would print T0 items for most people, and didn't even pull a T1 item from it, I ended up farming nearly 2,000 divines off of primarily scarab explosions.

You know how people ragged on D4 for "look at this old thing from Diablo 2! You like that game right??"

twilit mountain
Jonny boy feels like the game needs more risk and less reward
desert jasper
And then he doesn't even play end game at all
junior oyster
Reminds me of D4 devs lol
desert jasper
But I'm sure if he did he'd play like the d3 dev back in the day with totally legit gear in inferno whatever it was and no defensive skills equippd
"See, it's easy"
twilit mountain
I'd pay to see Jonathan play a league start all the way to T15s with minimal trading (because he insists that trade isn't necessary for progression).
Then again, not sure if watching 3 hours of load screens is gonna be fun since he apparently disenchants and salvages every single item that drops and isn't equipped
junior oyster
In PoE1 I'd see jewels drop graciously even if they were trash
So far I've seen only one lol
twilit mountain
I have like half a tab of jewels entirely because I hoarded all mg keys in Sekhema and opened every single jewel cache at the end lmao

I got a sekh trial might just do that tomorrow

Genius suggestion
junior oyster
Nearly every suggestion is genius when it comes to poe2
abstract karma
i know that it will take like +3 years till 1.0 PoE 2 but still having 1.0 with full 10 acts seems to me like double edge sword..
Even PoE 1 had it while in basic acts then hit kitava then hit "godslayer" while keeping with endgame stories..
I think that if PoE 2 will release with conclusion of main plot "the beast" idk where we will go except expectation of endgames part of lore
desert jasper
Poe2 isn't going to have 10 acts
They originally said 7 when it was just poe 1 4.0
then later said 6 acts
I don't even wanna imagine how long it would take to run through 10 acts in poe2 and what lvl you'd be by the end if they kept the zones same size
abstract karma
welp that's actually good point, how the f.. they would scale the maps and acts and lvls

Any ranged weapons like wands or bows available in voin?
Or it's a melee-focus game?
what surprised me the most is the price... First time to see a game which use ue5 to craft environments can be quite friendly on price
(The reason why I like indie games)
gilded elm
I think it's melee-focused, but there seems to be a lot of melee variety.
fierce moth
...QQ? Bilibili? weibo? It's a Chinese game even

It's been fun so far. It has a very gothic aesthetic.

🤔 The way to display hp in voin is quite unique
gilded elm
It's just # of hearts and there's a lot of different ways to build your HP
fierce moth
hard to say I know how to dodge attack... it's my cost for killing a zombie
gilded elm
Dodge when yellow for perfect dash
The perfect dash window is generous
Another option is to parry, which allows you to do a strong counter-attack, but that's more precise / more difficult than perfect dash.
And you could have a build that triggers effects when you perfect dash too.
Like this ring which I'm currently using
Finally, I beat the first area of the game lol
fierce moth
I'm confused how to equip that... I don't find a item with this name :(

Apparently last 3 build of the week vid builds were just straight up removed from the game in the patch after it
gilded elm
lol

action games includes... platform jumper (I think metroidvania is more accurate?), shooters (fps is the other name?) and soul-like (attack a boss with melee weapons and different actions)
Can't enjoy them at all
gilded elm
PoE, PoE2, LE, also action games
fierce moth
They need to think what's wrong in my builds, this is the part I like
pinnacle bosses are always action challenges, so I can't do that
desert jasper
I do love me some metroidvanias
fierce moth
Make sense on both of you do better than me a lot in poe 2 (this game require advanced action skills)
desert jasper
Kirra I'm terrible at most games
I don't really notice small details and it easily leads to me dying

Action games are too hard in general
they are not it just most of games these days are made to be more like soul-like and not as simple action combat..
tho this Voin seems rather chaotic than fun to play in first person at least..
If somebody wanna play such first person hack&slash better is speed like old school Arx Fatalis or Dark Messiash
Fatekeeper from upcoming shows is decently how it can looks

The tornado bird at least has a specific animation when it's about to do the tornado
viper's army you can just watch which ones have green glow and then not stand next to those
gilded elm
tho this Voin seems rather chaotic than fun to play in first person at least..
...
It's not very chaotic. The mechanics are extremely forgiving. You can mix dodging and attacking so that they both happen simultaneously, for example. Also applies to parrying. It's like animation-cancelling, but on steroids.
So there's very little actual precision required.
In addition to that everything is generously telegraphed, so not only are you able to dodge in the middle of an attack you will also see it coming from a mile away.
abstract karma
Well that dual short fight shows it little differently
gilded elm
It's a very weak weapon, I went back to the sword after. Faster attack speed weapons are understandably weaker unless you juice them up or got a good build to synergize with it.
I could be using a big, heavy two-hander that one shots everything, and I can dodge in the middle of a swing too.
I also increased the toughness level of the monsters for that run.
How much easier does this need to be? I didn't even attack, they just died from effects triggered from my Perfect Dash.

I feel like druid's Pounce is an antithesis of PoE2 design
It's pretty much a movement ability akin from PoE1

desert jasper
I feel like druid's Pounce is an antithesis of PoE2 design
Tbh I should probably get Pounce in on my build just for the mark
I currently use Reap for the small dash + crit vulnerability (also surprisingly good damage it does)
But honestly wouldn't be surprised if Pounce + the mark would be better 🤔
jovial bane
I gave it a shot, and this ability does everything jesus
can generate power charges, because you can make it combo with the gem, and have another gem that generates charges from combo
marks fo extra damage
summons minions with that mark

You’d cry if you learned how much boba costs where I live
twilit mountain
It's on average about $8 or so over here
sand wigeon
Obviously we make more, since we make USD, but: $7 = ¥49
And that’s cheaper than usual
fierce moth
😅 ?
But for Americans, it's cheap, isn't it?
Earn US dollars, spend US dollars.
Everything is expensive if you earn Chinese dollars, spend US dollars.
twilit mountain
No, it's not cheap
gilded elm
Everything is expensive in general right now in the US economy.
twilit mountain
That's like, half an hour of work on average, for a single drink. The opposite of cheap.
gilded elm
I wonder what the Chinese cost of living is like compared to the US, not the actual flat amount, but how much purchasing power Chinese middle class has vs US middle class atm
US is in a crazy economic situation where even the middle class is being priced out of consumer markets.

On which fields?
I'm not from middle class definitely, though
gilded elm
Middle class is middle class, there is no "field"
fierce moth
I mean which fields for purchasing power
gilded elm
Discretionary spending in general
sand wigeon
The middle class doesn’t really exist anymore, Kirra
Unless your family runs a large business or is affiliated politically you’re most likely considered lower class
Which is also what I’d guess based on your previous comments
gilded elm
In the US, a significant portion of discretionary spending (non-essential, luxury spending) comes from the upper class, who are a very small portion of the population.
sand wigeon
Mm, the middle class has eroded in the US too
The only middle class I know are old retired people now, nobody fifty and under that I know is living very far beyond their means at all
My mother makes the most money she’s ever made and works three jobs, yet lives paycheck to paycheck
abstract karma
Hmm unfortunately, i can see that too.. If there was some "middle class" their gap against upper class widen so much due to various events from politics to some crises that middle class is almost on lower lvl and lower lives from salary to salary or on debts or worse
gilded elm
Yeah the class gap has gotten wider.
Feels bad man
I wonder if it's also as bad for the average Chinese middle class
Somehow I kinda doubt it
sand wigeon
I think it’s likely worse
abstract karma
In my country gaps definitely changed last 5 years.. I would call our economy as Trash can.. >.>
sand wigeon
The average States citizen is still far more privileged than the average citizen of China or Hong Kong
gilded elm
Privileged yeah, but I'm skeptical to assume that always translates to being better off in every aspect such as health and employment.
sand wigeon
The employment in China is far worse
But I don’t feel liked discussing this with you
gilded elm
You don't have to. I'm happy to talk to myself! China's employment/unemployment rates are state-reported in any case. But in this case, I think the important distinction is the class divide and what proportion of the population falls into each class, lower/middle/upper-middle/upper etc.
gilded elm
oh just slang words
Which one
sand wigeon
The UN banned Futurama after the 2011 incident
Honestly what are people born in the nineteen-hundreds up to nowadays?
fierce moth
My standard for middle class is
On food, they don't need to worry about the cost on food. They can eat whatever they want to eat in shopping malls and have free time to enjoy desserts & drinks or do sports at weekend's afternoon.
On games, they can buy multiple 3a games with zero pressure. They own both of high-end game PC and consoles to play any games.
On living, they have the own home, regardless it's rented or purchased. Smart lightning and home appliances in the house so they don't need to do any chores. Everything is controlled by a touched panel.
On education, they can go any countries except US and UK to accept advanced education for the field they're interested without worrying about the rent and food cost in that country.
On travel, they can go to 1-3 countries per year, one week for each country to learn more about different cultures.
(well... It's my dream you can say)
gilded elm
That seems a bit more extravagant than your typical US middle class.
Vacationing out of country more than once a year seems a bit much
twilit mountain
Uh, yeah that's not middle class, that's upper class

I will say this definition still isn’t great
Using my own life, my mother can “support” a small family in the sense that we have heating and food, but we can’t get really anything extravagant, including games or clothes, and if we do it’s very “once in a while”
gilded elm
Yeah, there's nuance for sure. Is her home in a decent neighborhood, at least? Relatively peaceful suburbia?
sand wigeon
It’s… Maine
gilded elm
I haven't been to Maine, but from what I've seen of Maine I can assume yes?

I don't know what 1st/2nd/3rd mean
1st degree = you know someone (directly connected)
2nd degree = you know someone who knows someone
3rd degree = you know someone who knows someone who knows someone
desert jasper
Also Jonathan probably wouldn't accept you as connection anyway, Kirra
gilded elm
He might
It's not unusual
You'd be surprised how many big name executives accept small-time connections. You could send a message in your connection request with your "aspiring artist" story and who knows maybe he accepts.
A connection by itself doesn't mean much, so there's not much harm in them accepting it.
desert jasper
Hmm
Yeah, could happen
I just don't want her to get her hopes up

The question is how often does he check his LinkedIn? lol
I only check mine like once every 2 months or something

Grey effects on grey background, grey bubbles etc
"This is good design"
twilit mountain
I have determined this to be a MASSIVE scam, don't use this
It is pure RNG on if your fog is even going to be on the boss, and if it isn't you just lose ALL of your delirium drops
junior oyster
The vision
Once again one of my minions just disappear lol
And then I get my spirit back in town
desert jasper
I have determined this to be a MASSIVE scam, don't use this
What
I thought the boss would just drop them anyway even if it wasn't delirious... at least based on the wording
that's shit
twilit mountain
Yeah. It's awful.
desert jasper
And I think i took that as my first node to test it out
sand wigeon
2/8 Red Envelopes
My head really hurts
abstract karma
idk why i though it looks like Chernobylite 1 lol
abstract karma
I like features of S.T.A.L.K.E.R more.. With modding it can have even these survival elements of Chenorbylite
sand wigeon
i mean im a huge stalker fan so
abstract karma
well i dont like that chernobylite force you to build some "Camp" like you couldnt survive on your own or have NPC's which could build that
Stalker seems like you are just "person" while Chernobylite is "main character"
sand wigeon
indeed
twilit mountain
The funny
desert jasper
Look at this nerd
Always lucky with the drops
twilit mountain
Hey, this took multiple tries and it's not even worth much
twilit mountain
Where does Svalinn even drop in poe2?

Man THQ is cooking, and quite efficiently
ive seen that TQ2's next chapter comes out soon for its early access
desert jasper
Oh, 3rd one soon already?
fierce moth
No exact date
It's not valid until exact date is given in my opinion
And I still not complete act 2... Good reminder
Tq 2 and Poe 2 is on the same level... Boring to play
But it's nice to play different games so I don't burn out in a game
junior oyster
Man THQ is cooking, and quite efficiently
It's a bit easier when your focus is single player
jade jackal
hell yeah
fierce moth
Do this room is t3 Atziri's vault? What the room name is?
junior oyster
I have the following item and socketed living lightning into fireball. Does it not proc because the weapon is melee and has to instead be a wand?
I was for sure hoping it'd work oh well
abstract karma
azmadi 9 deaths everytime at 10% hp like wtf is wrong with me
abstract karma
yep
abstract karma
i slayed it for 10th time :D, i have "somehow dps" just idk why i always had make some stupid mistake at end of the fight
junior oyster
Fair
desert jasper
Hmm bleed spear is surprisingly fun so far
Should be mostly smooth sailing until 78
fierce moth
Do this room is t3 Atziri's vault? What the room name is?
do it match with this name?
1st divine orb is got by here
desert jasper
gz
fierce moth
hah, then the 1st orb of chance is dropped
junior oyster
Slowly getting there
desert jasper
Ah, wonderful
Matlan Waterways
remember when it didn't even have checkpoints..?
junior oyster
It might as well not have
fierce moth
🥴 what loots dropped from the powerful boss:
desert jasper
lvling tink
fierce moth
sigh. Nub's loots are better than me a lot
desert jasper
It was from a strongbox
not just normal drop
jovial bane
I managed to sell the ring.
I'M RICH !
junior oyster
lvling tink
I had my first (and only so far) drop during campaign lol
desert jasper
I had one in the temple on my Oracle at like
lvl 70 something
junior oyster
Honestly not sure if I should drop this in favour of a wand with some damage conversion to lightning
With muster it's 7% more damage when I summon living lightning
But I feel like the +2 levels is overall stronger
desert jasper
What build are you playing?
fierce moth
I managed to sell the ring.
I'M RICH !
I just spent 40c for a sapphire :(
junior oyster
Upgrades are sometimes necessary
desert jasper
I just spent 40c for a sapphire :(
wtf was on that sapphire?
desert jasper
I just hope she didn't overpay
fierce moth
junior oyster
Overpaid imo
fierce moth
Classic group attack
fierce moth
but not "40c worth"
chaos damage and max es are max roll, it's the point
desert jasper
chaos damage and max es are max roll, it's the point
Yeah but see
those are supposed to be very end game improvements on your jewels
desert jasper
Unless you think your gear is already as good as it gets
twilit mountain
Kirra you just keep scamming yourself by focusing on the wrong things and then you come around and complain about not having money
junior oyster
She sold something for 1d
Then spends 40c on something that in current context mostly useless
twilit mountain
That's almost a div worth of chaos btw
Like, I have somewhere around 20 div in stash not counting things I could sell/liquidate, and you won't see me paying more than like 40-50ex for a jewel right now. I can still upgrade my gear, even my body armor which is just shy of 900 ES and has over 70% res on it can be upgraded before I'd even think of buying more expensive jewels
junior oyster
I have half of that ES on my chest lol
junior oyster
Damn
desert jasper
was 3div
desert jasper
twilit mountain
You could. If you stopped spending money on mediocre min-max style upgrades.
ebon meadow
What is bonded ?
desert jasper
Bonded is druid thing, you don't get those unless you've the druid ascendancy that I can't remember
junior oyster
If I want a decent spirit ES base it's looking like 5d+ lol
twilit mountain
Spirit on body is a scam stat, you need defenses on armor more than anything
ebon meadow
Base is usually the first thing ,just for higher rolls
junior oyster
I'll stick to my 500es base
twilit mountain
If you need spirit invest in off-handing a sceptre and a giga amulet
junior oyster
If you need spirit invest in off-handing a sceptre and a giga amulet
It's overall an expensive build because sceptre needs to be rattling + minion levels + high spirit
Even that can get pretty expensive
ebon meadow
Amulets can be stupidly expensive if u need +1 to gems
ebon meadow
I was thinking around +3+ lol I still have a habit thinking like poe1
U can roll more +lvls on them
desert jasper
Okay, time for Viper fight
let's see how badly she wrecks me
junior oyster
A breeze for you I'm sure lol
fierce moth
I own 3 sapphires and I want a best sapphire for the slot in ascendency because it can 100% increase effect of jewel so I pay a lot for the most important one
warped wren
I own 3 sapphires and I want a best sapphire for the slot in ascendency because ...
This should be a lower priority than a high tier body armor
fierce moth
Nub remind me of next step is buy a 900+ es body armour when I can 🫡
twilit mountain
Don't gun straight for 900+
Incremental upgrades. Incremental. You can get 800+ and 70% res for less than 1div.
desert jasper
A breeze for you I'm sure lol
it was
junior oyster
Lol equipping this made my skills turn off because I had lower int
twilit mountain
Real af, I can't take off either of my rings or half my reservations turn off lmao
junior oyster
Just realised I have 0 rarity lol
Man these portals need to be more spread out or something...
twilit mountain
Just realised I have 0 rarity lol
Don't fret about it, I have like... 20-some. Makes basically no difference.
junior oyster
I have about 20 more levels before I can think about going CI
So many points to get there lol
ebon meadow
Man these portals need to be more spread out or something...
I haven't actually checked is the map devise has only one decoration variety ? Or can u flick it with middle wheel ?
ebon meadow
Sucks I remember this was same in Poe 1 untill they changed it and I m using maven one as well
Yea they added a big one as default on base deco in poe1 not that long ago like 2 years or something
fierce moth
what's wrong?
junior oyster
No stock
warped wren
what's wrong?
It doesn't exist in league anymore
fierce moth
hah?!
warped wren
Yes, this and coronation were deleted
junior oyster
Gotta love this game
warped wren
Only exist in standard now
junior oyster
We deleted it
fierce moth

warped wren
No fun allowed
