I have hundreds of orcs from various iterations of warhammer. They make great fodder in D&D.

JRPGS are the most time sink games haha

Currently going to pick up Baten Kaitos again after pausing for halloween games this month (about 20-30 hours in)
Then I got Mario and Luigi coming up November
But I want to play FF6 and FF7 too
Then there’s Dragon Quest 3 Remake

DAMNNNNN

Rogue Trader’s biggest problem is it overstays its own welcome, a bit.

I feel like it’s an RPG that should have had multiple, branching conclusions to the narrative rather than what it did have. Because by the end of Act 3 I felt the story was functionally “finished”. I’d secured my rule, toppled my rivals, driven back the most immediate threats, and escaped the bloody Dark City itself.

And then the game decided to pick up the Chaos plot that hadn’t been touched on since the end of the prologue. And I feel like enough time and events had happened between those two situations that it felt jarring.

It didn’t sit right with me that escaping Commorragh was considered by the developers to be a side quest. Also the whole idea that the BBEG was a hereto unseen Chaos Marine. I was just like “I have absolutely no connection to you.”

There was one of these back in LK or Cata. I don’t remember which. They gave us all chunks of the map. I recreated the exterior of Naxx.

It must have been Cata because I think I also started goth-Forsaken Brill.

No because I’m not buying the game for a fourth time. They lost my original Alpha account, then I bought it again for PC, then for Xbox, and then in the most recent ‘account linking’ nonsense they messed up both of those. And now you can’t even play Minecraft on console without Gamepass.

I would be down otherwise, but the incompetence that happened on their end will not result in me dropping more money the game.

She says this, having dropped over a hundred on TWW and massively regretting that decision

I finished act 3 and then unwillingly stopped playing because glitches bricked my save file :frowning:

Gary’s Mod (of all places) is where Skibidi Toilet came from. Skibidi can mean cool, bad, or dumb, the toilet comes from long-necked, scary-faced people who live in toilets and are trying to take over the world, and Ohio is Ohio. Like how people joke there’s nothing in Ohio, or Ohio is boring / Ohio has no character; Gen Alpha uses this to equivocate something as to especially bad. Like “Ohio Rizz” meaning “terrible charisma”.

So saying the Maw is Ohio toilet kind of translates into “not only is it bad in trying to be scary, it’s scary how bad it is”.

So anyways, the human language is fascinating.

I played almost all of Elden Ring using the basic starter axe my barbarian character got… even after I respecced him to faith-based religious barbarian, I still used the same axe by adding a faith ash which made it use that stat.

It is hard to find weapon tempering materials! How am I supposed to try out all these cool weapons bosses drop when I’ve invested so much stuff in basic axe? I kinda wish weapon improvement just wasn’t a thing, so experimenting with other weapons didn’t feel like such a downgrade or burden.

Thanks for the insight. Who knew.

I get to see a different side of WrA each day. Lol.

After the Legion destroyed Argus, we Draenei now call it O’hio.

You aren’t wrong. It gets easier as you find Smithing Stone Bearings to give to the merchant at the Roundtable Hold, but the main reason I had to start over is because I’d basically bricked my first character having upgraded too many specific things and not having easy access to the principle upgrade materials to try out different weapons (The fact there are only 9 of the top tier upgrade in the game world per run is a bit daft, since there’s like 50+ weapons).

Even after I got the bearings it was frustrating to run back and forth between the merchant and the smith calculating how many I needed to buy for each upgrade! Why can’t I pay runes directly, or at least move the vendor corpse over to where the blacksmith is?

Anyway, annoying upgrade system aside Elden is great and its expansion is another item on the pile of, “things I’d like to play once I’m done with the other things I’d like to play”

Although I never managed to beat Mogh which afaik is a prerequisite to play the DLC :sweat_smile: I always got NIHIL’d out of existence

If I play again I wanna try an int build because there are cute wizard outfits the spells look fun.

I see…

Shadow of the Erdtree is a weird one for me. Maybe it’s because I experienced it first on NG+, but I felt a lot of the bosses were a bit too…anime…for my tastes. By that I mean there’s a lot of super power nonsense going on with the bosses. Quite a few come down to twitch reflex rolls than outright skill. One hidden boss actually is quite obnoxious in that it will spawn Deathblight spewing minions from thin air mid-fight.

That said, the expansion is also home to some absolutely incredible fights and it re-contextualizes the entire story of Elden Ring. Like any Fromsoft title, it’s open to interpretation, but it definitely makes going back through the story engaging now that I know some of the hidden backstory SotE reveals.

There’s a Cracked Tear you can obtain for the Physik vial whose whole purpose is to negate NIHIL. Can’t remember where you find it off the top of my head, but it’s how I beat him.

If there was a cost-effective way to do it and folks got along swell, I’d be down. No idea how beefy the server would have to be though or how many people would play.

tbh, it’d be fun to try and re-create Warcraft areas (like Kirsy with Naxx) in MC and have a bit of a server contest around it.

I enjoy Minecraft, but I am very much the simple farmer that grows food and tends livestock. Sheep, pigs, chickens, cows. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.

Also, rice pudding is my new favorite thing.

I’m very much a hermit in the woods when playing Minecraft. I like to make underground or treehouse homes that are hard to find and generally keep my footprint to a minimum (except for underground; mine ALL THE THINGS).

They added a lot of new things recently so Vanilla feels like a whole new game.

I would do Valheim. My other jam is survival games.

In Minecraft I usually build complicated buildings from finding cool patterns on the internet. I also terra-form. On the best private server my friends and I had, I did a waterfall that flowed around a town, had a blacksmith, a town hall (with secret hidden room), a windmill, and a dwarven cave.

I think that was the one that Topsail put a bunch of cultist things hidden all over town, and a tunnel system to lead to them all if I remember correctly.
