...after you get your life back.

The spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment is out, Tides of Numenera.

You can purchase it on Steam.

There are other games than WoW?


RE: Bolty, you can thank me later... - roguebanshee - 03-04-2017

WoW is a game?

I thought it was just an expensive chat client with a monthly subscription tacked on. :p

But yea, over the last few years there has been some fairly high profile single player, story driven rpgs released with a very positive response from both critics and players. Ones I've heard a lot of good about include Shadowrun, Wasteland 2, Divinity: Original Sin, The Witcher 3 and now Tides of Numenera.

Sure, but in those games you can't have a rich experience such as having your guild's raid leader promise you 1 million gold if you kill a boss on the first try of an evening*...and this happens (I am Cleoboltra in this vid):

* we were not given one million gold each

Have you played the TTRPG?

I grew up on AD&D (we're talking 1st edition, the giant devil holding the woman on the cover of the DM's guide as well as the Cthulhu and Melebonian mythos in Dieties and Demigods before TSR almost got sued by the Lovecraft Estate and Michael Morcock for using both without permission).

Imo, 5th edition outshines them all at this point. I'd say the next best edition was 2nd with several custom net books for balance tweaking. 3rd was great (and by extension Pathfinders) however i5 quickly became a numbers game that bogged down play and ruined the fun at high levels. And 4th was utter horse shit. 1st is nostalgic, however I view it as more of the predecessor to the evolution of the game, and hardly worth a play through, as in not quintessential.

How many people are left in that guild from the days it was on Doomhammer?

Well, at this point, none, considering the guild just ended operations yesterday and is another victim of Legion's insane grind on mythic raiders. Sad


RE: Bolty, you can thank me later... - Sir_Die_alot - 03-23-2017

Sorry to hear that. Sad I was close to joining them back around the time they server changed, but I like my worgen sprint too much.


RE: Bolty, you can thank me later... - LavCat - 03-23-2017

I can only wish that I could do mythic (or any) raiding.

My little boy has an iLevel way higher than mine.

Are you? I might be going back to Alliance!

Wait...you probably ARE sorry to hear that, then. Tongue

You can ask Krys - I just said on Sunday how I miss getting to see you online.
