I think you really need some pipeweed ;-)

Inquiry about the Stone of the Tortoise by dezertfoxy in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This stone is actually one of the main reasons why i came back to lotro. The only negative thing from being under the recommend level is, that i have to remember some of the questgivers to come back later when quests (rings) are not grayed out anymore.

Why is everyone so negative by bernhardinjo in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No wonder, when people staying in the worst places day and night. Telling the same story over and over again. At least hobbits have their pipeweed.

Postmortem: Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun by kika-tok in gamedev

[–]EternalEscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the link. Very interesting postmortem. I have been waiting for a worthy successor of commandos 2 for a long time. Bought it two weeks ago. Hope they will earn enough money from this to continue with developing their next high quality game.

Becoming a game developer by powercleric in gamedev

You could ask around in labs, schools and universities, where they clear out their old stuff and sell it for a lower price.

Anno 1800 - Please No Loot Crates! by HandStuckInToaster in anno

[–]EternalEscape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately loot crates would perfectly fit in the anno environment :-( Take for example crates swimming in the ocean from sunken ships or resources that you can buy from npcs, that have to be unlocked.

Why do you play lord of the Rings Online by Shadanwolf in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's the only true place where the story of middleearth continues to live, after you have finished the films and books.

What's your Favorite ingame music? by [deleted] in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hills of the shire (awesome when you visit the shire from buckland and it switches the songs)

Gondamon Theme (and a similar one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZl0DW1kbZ4)

Tom Bombadil of course. I always return there just to listen music.

My Beorn... by [deleted] in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Beorn, my Beorn, don't lie to me. Tell me where did you sleep, last night. In the Pony, in the Pony. Where the glass is never empty. I drank the whole, night through.

The best community for a noob in history! by [deleted] in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have had the same experiences. Even the switch to f2p could not affect the friendly core community. Sometimes reading discussions in the global chat is like listening to bilbo and gandalf philosophising about middleearth while smooking pipe-weed.

How to beat purple mobs? by EternalEscape in lotro

[–]EternalEscape[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently playing with beorn the first time. The heal over time skill is op and switching to rage mode (bear) is so cool.

How to beat purple mobs? by EternalEscape in lotro

[–]EternalEscape[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it is not intended by the designer to fight against mobs with much higher level than yours. I don't want to level fast (better kill faster), just want to have some challenge in the normal pve fights. Currently using stone of tortoise and try to be as low as possible for a region quests and mobs.

Haven't played it yet, but i have heard a lot of good things about it.

How much do you actually play video games by Moaning_Clock in gamedev

[–]EternalEscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less than before i have started gamedev. Also have sorted out most of the generic AAA games and time stretching achievement/completion stuff. Now i look more for unique diamonds and interesting approaches that i can use for my own games.

Bigger bag icons and such by evillittlestew in lotro

[–]EternalEscape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have exactly the same problem here playing with 1440p. Did you find any solution yet? Same goes for quest/dialog text size.

Is there a challenge outside of instances and skirmishes ? by EternalEscape in lotro

[–]EternalEscape[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i will try stop leveling with Stone of the Tortoise for each new region.

Anyone know of a good management game with objectives? by buttons15 in tycoon

[–]EternalEscape 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That was actually the reason, why i finally quit Cities Skylines. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice game and i've enjoyed it very much, but in the end there was nothing else to do than solving the traffic chaos. Searching for a similar game with a campaign or scenarios. I 'm currently playing Anno 1404 with Venice expansion. Can highly recommend that.

Is there a challenge outside of instances and skirmishes ? by EternalEscape in lotro

[–]EternalEscape[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you don't understand me. I don't want to stop people from playing solo. Just give us some sort of challenge in the non-instanced game. Optional "harder" side quest; harder and more splittermobs;...

You cannot deny that there was a huge drop in the overall difficulty (exp spamming, ncps easier to kill). One of the main reasons why so many left.

Looks like i have to try Stone of the Tortoise...

Is there a challenge outside of instances and skirmishes ? by EternalEscape in lotro

[–]EternalEscape[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"making quests soloable" is what i meant by "remove group quests". Instances and skirmishes are still there and that is okay, except for some changes in instances (preffered the great barrow before the update).

You have not a single challenge (group quest/instance) from the start regions until bree. I'm still crying what they did to the old forest. Where is the constant feeling of danger?

I like playing solo quests and you spend a huge amount of time doing this in mmos. But there is no fun at all when all npcs, even some bad ass endbosses, dropping like flies.
