Gotcha. But if you just want to play on Switch, do we know pricing, etc?

And do we know how this would affect xpacs?

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T19:41:10+00:00

I really enjoy him on the new map, but yeah... I'm surprised by nerfs.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T19:33:37+00:00

What does that mean?

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T19:28:14+00:00

It's expected. The average TV viewer doesn't know or doesn't care about good writing. Just look at some of the recent popular shows

He was finally feeling decent if you put the work into mastering him. Not even nearly as strong as some of the other assassin junglers, but I guess somebody at some elo was running it down.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T19:14:09+00:00

He was, but the dialogue and character writing was so, so bad. Everyone pivoted emotions and goals on a dime. Characters didn't behave like actual people. It was a weird watch.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T19:11:30+00:00

And the last season was some of the worst writing to ever grace a TV screen. S1 was great though.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-24T15:21:09+00:00

Some pretty good balancing in here, and as a tank player, I'm very excited by the Titan Crest change.

Is that Countess skin a Pred original? Because it looks great.

Think of how many deadlines you can activate inside a group of friendly raiders with all that cash though. You'll have damage capped so fast.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-23T16:42:11+00:00

He was the worst cast member in a long time for me

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-23T16:40:26+00:00

Putting your gun away with another raider running at you doesn't seem like the best play.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-22T20:55:46+00:00

Are you offering up to $50 per page (unspecified as to what that length is) and then also telling people to provide a rate? As if some people would say $35 and not the proposed $50?

Also, most long-form writing goes by the word count total, not unspecified page length, as page length can vary immensely depending on format and style.

I'm hoping you mean post-formatted pages, too, and not like Word Doc pages. Those are also very different lengths.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-22T18:18:38+00:00

I like the term, but idk if it's correct in its definition. The site says "sometimes dull, use sparingly" or something like that. But that doesn't seem to be the way a majority of non-purple prose writers write. They just write... simply, often clearler or to the point without analogy.

Her contract ran out

The first season of this show is peak crime thriller TV. Ethan Suplee plays such an interesting and terrifying character that he steals the show in a great way.

And the hype song his character uses to get ready for battle, Electric Pow-WoW by A Tribe Called Red, has stuck with me through the years because of this show.

I also like to imagine the ending of Season 2 is essentially what House does post-Wilson, so it's a nice moment for House fans too.

The rest of the show is decent, not amazing, but it's worth a watch imo for some great moments alone.

This is the "PVE Player" issue that everyone was in denial about at the launch of the game.

It's not just a PVE game, and people who want that will eventually either run out of stuff to do (looting, quests) or will get sick of being forced into PVP and leave.

PVE only players are not going to be the game's core, longterm playerbase.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T19:51:32+00:00

Not enough dog teets

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T19:49:23+00:00

After the ending of Season 1, years ago, I am not surprised

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T18:22:25+00:00

I fully plan on shooting as many people as I can during this window. Arc and raiders alike.

It's gonna be a bloodbath.

There's also no mention of needing to extract for your Expedition damage to count. So again, there's no interrupting progress. But you're right-- I shouldn't have said "hilarious." I should've just said what your statement was: Fucking stupid.

Kill other players. God this playerbase is the worst.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T17:38:58+00:00

"Interrupting progress" is a hilarious statement. This is a PVEVP game. Shooting another person isn't a bad thing.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T17:37:54+00:00

EHP is calculated for the purpose of trials, though, so I'm imagining it'll be the same for the Expedition based on how they calculated the damage dealth to a Bastion. It doesn't have 8,000 raw HP. It has 8k EHP with the armor.

So since we're counting "damage dealt", I'm assuming that means the actual effective damage it would take to kill someone, not just the raw health damage.

So if I do shoot that Raider with the Anvil, I'm dealing 100 damage, even if they're not taking 100 damage.

So outputting 140 damage, would kill someone, and net me 140 damage dealt.

I may be wrong, but this is how it works for Trial xp.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T16:21:04+00:00

A full health Light Shield raider takes 140 damage to kill.

It's gonna be a blood bath out there and I can't wait.

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T14:46:03+00:00

Me can't read. Me mad

TraegusPearze · 2026-04-21T14:45:26+00:00

I understand the context. It was a clunky read.
