I think a lot of the ideas here are exactly what I want from the game, since flying mounts and the overworld are my favorite parts.

But I also play specter and herald a lot and I don’t wanna relearn how to use them after today’s balance patch. We’ll see how their rotations turn out but I’m not super excited for quickness herald anymore :(

One time I was at a camp in 7th grade for a week (a religious Christian camp) where my friend and I were NOT religious, so we were being bullied. I was so deathly afraid of getting bullied while taking a shit that I didn’t poop until the 6th day. I honestly barely remember it but I snuck out in the night just to take a shit, and it was absolutely horrendous. Pretty sure it felt like trying to pass a big old hard fruit or something, it was the worst and took forever. 2/10 Do not recommend.

Yeah I love all the sylvari racial stuff! It looks good on both genders, though definitely moreso on female sylvari. It does get expensive though! I’ve spent a ton of gold on those sets.

This does look fantastic!

I have to corroborate this feeling. I feel like every balance patch makes me not want to come back as opposed to excited to try the new differences.

As a person who plays Herald, Specter, and Scourge pretty much exclusively I am scared of this patch lol

Looks great! I’m of the opinion that sylvari with any natural looking clothing is definitely one of the best fits in the game, and you chose a great color scheme. Is that the sylvari racial armor or something else?

Very cute but klee knowing how to drive a boat with a cannon on it is asking for trouble

Deeply love this demo. Especially Eikonic challenge, really wiped away all my worries about the combat. Very crunchy, a decent amount of skill expression while being easy to pick up at a moderate skill level. I’ve enjoyed going back through and kicking ass.

Don’t forget even if you are only doing basic moves (no eikon) you have a lot more options than just mash square.

You have a closer with thrust/phoenix strike. You can weave every single strike with triangle (timing is tight but doable) and get extra magic bursts to do more will damage.

You can combine abilities to bring enemies into the air (charged shot and especially aerial burning blade work well for this too) so you can do different combos on them there.

All that stuff is doable after you get abilities halfway through the demo. On the Eikonic challenge you have so many options that you can easily tear through stuff doing only a few combos, even on bosses!

Thanks, I’ll check nofunallowed out as well.

I was thinking about the pact and I agree, the prices given seem to small. I was already planning on changing some of the approaches and descriptions to other attractions (seems to me like it’s too easy to lose “mood” for doing things that the players don’t really have a hand in) so I think a gold piece or 2 is a great change.

I would unironically wear that outfit with some aviators.

Disco Elysium, easily. I think about it daily, and it was just written so powerfully.

Personally, I prefer Pathfinder (2e for me, but 1e is tons of fun too).

I think the big thing that keeps me coming back to Pathfinder over 5e (I am running a game for newbies in 5e because they probably don’t want to complexity) is that there are actual, hard rules for almost anything you might want to do in the entirety of the game. DnD is always advertised as “do whatever you want and the DM will tell you how it goes!” but the rules for 5e are so combat-focused and simplistic that the DM will inevitably end up homebrewing…well, 80% of the game unless you players or crazily combat focused. Whereas 2e has extensive and widely available rules for freaking everything and it makes it feel so much more like a world compared to 5e. Also, their adventure paths are so awesome and exciting compared to 5e campaigns IMO.

I also am not a big fan of WOTC lately, so that is helping me stick to Pathfinder. Also, they are very LGBTQIA+ friendly!

Really excited for Rowdy Rogue with martial weapons. Made one the other day and was disappointed in my best option being the longspear.

I really wanted a yao yao, so I was willing to pull for Kazuha and I wouldn’t be THAT sad that I got him (had like 50 pulls).

Got 2 heizou. Heizou and Bell. Heizou and catalyst. Kazuha and Heizou.

Oh well. At least I fucking love heizou.

Yeah I agree, honestly I just get real sick of corporate assholes and get unreasonably angry, so I don’t want to “give-in”. I’ve been going back on RIF to spread word of Lemmy to see what I can do, but come July 1st, that won’t really be an option anymore since I’ll have to navigate through their ad-ridden app and will eventually give them money.

To be fair, I haven’t watched the new trailer yet, but I’d never pre-order a Bethesda game. I don’t know if I’m even interested in it on release, might wait for mods etc.

I also feel like I remember some of the devs saying they “needed more time because they didn’t want to be the next cyberpunk” which honestly doesn’t feel like the devs have full faith in their own project? I don’t know. Either way, I’m happy to wait and see.

Personally I prefer Community, it is nicely neutral and conveys the correct message I think. If people think that’s too broad, then “sub” is a solid short option.
