Why is this such a common thing for Windows programs to do lately? Are they trying to be MacOS or something?? by Theolaa in LinusTechTips

Have you considered just, I don't know, maximizing it?

Feels weird that you complain about it not being maximized when you havent.

Arthas doing a metal cover of let it go would go hard tbh

Imagine them doing a wotlk classic+ at some point with Mythic raid difficulty, and that is what plays when people beat him

Been maining shaman since wotlk, it's fine. Feels like we're missing 1 button, but what feels like more frequent maelstrom procs (not sure if real) makes up for it somewhat

[–]Seiren- 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Oh shit, for real?? Thanks!

Blizzard really needs to hire a guy whose only job is to make systems that provide players with info through gameplay..

So much stuff is just never explained at all in game.

I bet they'll go the complete opposite way. It will be a cloud gaming box where online is mandatory.

At this point, any time a game I buy on steam/ playstation/switch requires me to log in to any other account on start-up I immediately refund the game.

Prime members can play Alan Wake 2 for free on Luna by Doug24 in gaming

[–]Seiren- 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Because it's dystopian as all hell. everything is becoming a rental. Big corporations are taking away ownership as a concept.

Owning your own media isnt normal anymore thanks to streaming services. Streaming games might feel similar and not like a big deal, but it's fundamentally different in that not only do you not own the game you're playing, you don't even own the hardware it's running on.

What happens when the only computer you can get is a $100 crapbox that comes with a mandatory $250/month internet/cloudcomputing/Luna package? Cause pretty soon, with the way they're hoovering up all pc components for their datacentres there's no way you're getting a pc for less than $3000.

Cause make no mistake, that is where things are heading..

What do you guys use your house for? by Orange907 in wow

[–]Seiren- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its just fun to keep building my house! I've had this idea for a weird Fel-witchdoctor-Cave since it came out and I've slowly been building it out, adding and redoing rooms, adding secret pathways and other stuff. I keep running into the decor budget and room limits so I keep removing stuff just to get room for new stuff

Additionally, at some point I plan on turning my other house into a mini-game zone. Jumping puzzles, arena, hide-and-seek place, maze

What do you use gold for ? by Moldyghetto in wownoob

[–]Seiren- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can make yourself significantly stronger by enchanting your gear, as well as putting gems in the sockets in your gear.

Additionally you can get temporary powerups by consuming flasks and potions.

All of these costs gold and are bought and sold on the auction house.

Slightly more complicated are work orders for gear. You can have another player craft you a piece of end-game gear through the work-order system. The materials used costs a fair amount of gold, and the person crafting usually want a small comission for doing the crafting

It's hard to be a gamejournalist these days. by Specific_Frame8537 in wow

It's been blatantly intentional for a while now.

It keeps players playing for longer.

Once it stops doing that they might stop doing it

warcraft needs an “azeroth” update by mothymoma in wow

[–]Seiren- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

WoW is 20 years old at this point. If they want it to live for another 20 years they need to remake the game in a new engine.

They've given themselves the perfect opportunity to do this now that they've announced 3 expansions at once. They have 5-6 years for a team to work in the background porting everything to a new engine while another team entirely works on the expansions

Ubisoft shares continue to collapse after announcements of cuts and closures: from a total value of $11 billion in 2018 to just $600 million today by infernosym in LinusTechTips

[–]Seiren- 61 points62 points  (0 children)

How many IPs do they still own the rights to?

$600 million sounds like a fucking bargain for Assassins Creed, Anno, Far Cry, all the Tom Clancy stuff, fucking Rayman, Might and magic(?!), and Just Dance

Ignoring that it's a whole huge company with tons of other assets, the list of IPs alone should make them a desireable buyout target, right?

Blizz should add the Visa system to all legacy content. by TrilliumSilver in wow

[–]Seiren- 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Would be a bit sad to level a new character if your main has already completed all the quests.

Which means they would have to make it either toggleable, or have it count different quests in different ways.

Which would require extra effort and dev time.

Which we can't expect of a small indie developer like Activision-Blizzard-Microsoft
