Pet peeves: The return (Part 1)

I aspire to this level of chaotic neutral energy

I have my moments, usually I fall into lawful evil energy as a raid/guildlead. But when I’m not any of those, hoo boi.

It’s already been a year since Reckful passed away. In my mind it was just a few months ago.

Damn.

Anyone else get stuck in a loop of, like, opening a tab for something, browsing a bit, closing it, doing something else, then opening a tab again, or an app, browsing a bit, then… just, like, looping round and round and round and round? Even when doing something else as a ‘main focus’?

I seem to toggle between ‘Intense fixation for literally hours’ and ‘Couldn’t hold still if you strapped me down’, heh…

Yeah, I get the sad brains too sometimes.

A first world problem that I have is that I need to clean up my PC and probably replace my CPU’s thermal paste because whenever I play a game now it sounds like there’s a jet engine attached to my rig.

At the same time getting to the CPU is such a bother and I don’t really feel like doing it. :expressionless:

@croecell who do you recommend for DoS2 lone wolf parties? I more mean characters who synergise with each other story wise rather than builds - like how Red Prince and Sebille will probably be An Unwise Decision

(but also ideas of what two classes will not have obvious weaknesses when combined would be helpful ty xoxoxo)

Tangentally related, I’d like to play more of FF7R.

However, I get so tired of my PS4 sounding like it’s trying to enter orbit. I kinda wish I’d held off for the PS5, heh!

Well you should try to get one whenever, at least in my country it’s pretty easy to buy one now and prices have been dropping to normal. I only regret getting the digital version because the prices on the PSStore are horrendous and I have to buy games on US store to get any decent deals.

But I don’t really want to go back to playing with shoddy framerates, I hated the drops I had in Tsushima in any larger fight. Plus there’s already some great games out, Rift Apart and Returnal are both excellent. The controller’s cool too.

I still don’t know the difference between Ghost, Sekiro and Nioh and at this point I’m too scared to ask

Peeve: they released a Sylvanas Nendoroid.
Where’s my Khadgar Nendo? Or Thrall? Or Arthas? OR Tyrande? Or Jaina?

You break the Samurai code and become Assassin’s Creed to kill Mongols

You live, you die, but then you can live again to keep deflecting.

Dark Souls but better and you go to Japan to fight demons and meet some historical figures.

that’s pretty much it

Sebille and Ifan for story?

Or go custom undead and Fane? That’s fun if you have a wizard and the venomous sentry and you can use the poisons between both builds to heal yourselves. (this is actually my main LW build)

Being fair, none of the other characters have such a bad relationship as Red prince and Sebille. So knock yourself out.

As for builds;

Warden and Assassin if you can be bothered to do the weapon swapping mid combat.

Stormchaser and a water-based build. (or Frost Paladin)

Need to pick high damage builds that you blow 5 action points to do damage, then use the 6th to chameleon cloak/buff your dodge etc.

This is why I had to stop playing the Last of Us. I could never hear when I was about to get ambushed.

Might go for fane as poison/fire wizard and OC as warrior/necro two-hander in that case!

That’d be good!

Have no problems killing things with an eternal warrior and not to harp on about, scourge wizard is great (technically a fire/geo build, but I play it more as a massive eye-of-the-storm aoe dump)

One of the big annoyances I had with DOS2 was trying to micromanage the builds and inventories of 4 characters so LW will suit me really well.

At some point I’ll give Pillars 2 and Tyranny a proper go-through as well

Anyone else have a sort of knock-on effect when it comes to motivation?

I have a friend I often play games like Three Kingdoms with until an hour or two before bedtime. Then, when he heads off, I go and do some painting until it’s time for me to go as well.

But whenever he isn’t up for a game night, I find my motivation to go paint afterwards dropping as well. Painting is a very lonely activity, so I guess it feels worse without a proper load of social interaction first as counterbalance.

I go to bed a lot later than most people, so it’s not so easy to just play with someone else!

Now I look back to 2007-2011 when I had a ton of friends IRL who I played online with whether it was Halo 3, Call of Duty or even Fifa

Last online: 10 years ago

My guild is my anchor to sanity right now.

We play (and watch each other play) all kinds of games together.
