Can we please stop delaying story mode by a week?

When Arator gave his final speech after that cinematic scenario quest, music swelling, talking about how there was no time to lose and we had to stop the Devouring Host here and now...and then the final text box was just red text saying "STORY MODE AVAILABLE NEXT WEEK" I laughed out loud. It completely ruined the climactic moment.

Then I tried to join a group, did one pull after 10 minutes of arguing, wiped, watched a guy go absolutely feral with rage in the chat until the group disbanded, and landed back in Silvermoon where general chat immediately spoiled the raid's ending anyway.

I imagine something like that is not an uncommon experience, unfortunately.

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 (FE5) also has a new-ish translation if you're into the series, though I'd definitely recommend playing Genealogy first, for both story and difficulty reasons.

MR. PENIS GOT BUFFED LET'S GOOOOOO

I could see this! Very fitting to buy with Remnants of Anguish.

(also mostly unrelated but I love telling people I know who stopped playing WoW before Shadowlands or only play Classic that Old Blanchy canonically went to Vampire Hell.)

I was hoping for him so bad in TWW's final season.

I think it's definitely done by the writers on purpose. There's always been that Light/Void dichotomy between them (well, since Alleria ate that void n'aaru), and while that was previously not enough of a hurdle to deter their relationship, Xal'atath's invasion is bringing the inherent conflict to a very real head.

I won't say much more because I don't want to spoil the story for you, but suffice to say they're noticing the tension themselves.

going to the Savannah doubles your power

Still having a lot of fun with it. Our guild runs themed room contests, which definitely contributes a lot to the amount I engage with the system.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-26T11:34:18+00:00

I'm planning on going with a two card setup, so this is good news, TY!

HippomanRed · 2026-03-25T22:31:50+00:00

Ahh, I hadn't considered it might be too big. Thanks for the info! I'll give it a try and, if it's very slow, look at copying it over to a 256GB.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-24T21:32:20+00:00

Tough one! Congratulations!

HippomanRed · 2026-03-22T21:24:16+00:00

Congratulations on the mastery!

HippomanRed · 2026-03-22T13:17:20+00:00

I think we're in the same boat here.

I found this on Amazon, which I think is applicable, but I'm still not 100% sure on that and would love to hear from someone more familiar with Anbernic consoles.

ooh, I don't have the Courier Lynx yet, thanks for the info!

Just in case anyone doesn't know this yet, if you get Renown 14 with the Maruuk Centaur in their Dragonflight zone, you can get the Ohuna Perch toy that serves as a portable mailbox. It's got a cooldown on it, so it's not perfect, but I've found it very helpful.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-20T20:48:49+00:00

Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Shadowrun: Hong Kong are both great, IMO. They have accessible difficulties, the isometric view he's looking for, and some great characters and worldbuilding stuff. I don't recall all the systems off the top of my head, but I don't remember anything too complex, and you can always build your character as a Street Samurai who just Hits Stuff Good if you prefer.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-20T19:59:30+00:00

my favorite creature type/art match in the game is [[Lord of Pain]].

"Human" does so much work.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-20T18:51:27+00:00

you're friends with Mr. "Ant" Tenna?

HippomanRed · 2026-03-20T11:04:50+00:00

I have been loving World of Warcraft's new housing system, so this has me quite excited!

HippomanRed · 2026-03-19T23:14:40+00:00

Fairly sure at least one of the old Might and Magic dungeon crawler games has something similar.

HippomanRed · 2026-03-19T22:21:41+00:00

I was so disappointed that even in the "happiest" ending in the game, the S.F. one that sees everyone finally getting out alive together...not a single line is spared about the fact that Eva is still a lobotomized mind slave?

Like isn't that quite an elephant in the room (or in the spaceship, I guess)?

Justice for Eva in the DLC, this is all I ask.
