    The Guild Wars 2 Thread

    generally correct for most of pve content (!ANYONE UNINTERESTED IN GW2 META-GAMING CAN STOP READING HERE!), but end-game instanced content will require you to bring healers with non-berserk gear. also condi dps have their own "berserk" variant and they are essential/desired for some encounters...

    Game News Dark Envoy gets a Director's Cut update

    a socially awkward trailer. god, i wish this trailer aimed to be "shy and meek" socially awkward instead of being as obnoxious and retarded as possible. i kid you not, i only lasted four seconds watching it, and before you ask - no, its not that good. in fact, its the most abysmal thing i have...

    The Guild Wars 2 Thread

    in later expansions its even more talking, fewer cutscenes. some soto "missions" have almost no gameplay yet are impossible to skip, because very often your objectives are just "go there" or "talk to X". you may think here "heh, but i can always click through dialogues". not so fast. a lot of...

    Incline Skill systems (you really liked)

    why specifically impossible mode? i have only finished the game on normal and hard, yet i would still agree if you said just "system shock 2". we did not deserve gw1 :negative:

    What game are you wasting time on?

    when i was making my list for the ongoing "top rpgs" vote, motb was a no-brainer for me, i just love its story that much, so i decided to replay it. i created a character, invested some time into leveling it up, finished the first dungeon, but it just... it just didnt feel right. i had no story...

    Incline Games for gentlemen

    maybe myths? both are relatively short easy mechanics, but theres a lot of depth beneath challenging good writing setting the games up may be a bit difficult unfortunately

    Games you've changed your mind about

    system shock 2. i needed three attempts to finish it, i just couldnt get into it at first. in third attempt i decided to play melee psi build and i loved it. maybe because at some point before that run i finished thief and it helped me get used to the quirks of dark engine. last year i beat the...

    Why do people hate Oblivion so much?

    i agree. oblivions radiant ai, despite being the undisputed king of unintentional comedy in video games to this day, was actually ambitious and it is the soul of the game. as nasty as oblivion is i wouldnt call it a soulless game, unlike something like skyrim or starfield. and thats something.
