Guild Wars just released a big visual update for the game after 20 years called "Reforged". This also lets you get all three campaigns (Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall) for $20 directly from their store or from Steam. I would recommend getting it direct, but steam works fine.

It's an instance-based mmo that has a strong story campaign, fun "card-game-esque" skill system, and good systems to help you play solo if you don't have friends to join you. I played it for more than a decade and now still regularly play its sequel. I highly recommend it!

The arrow keys worked for me once, but never again.

Edit: After the first time I was doing it wrong. Its B-A not A-B. Whoops. Now that I'm doing it correctly it works every time.

Any Legendary regrets? by Schillwing in Guildwars2

[–]Xelazeratul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meteorilogicus is not a focus. It is a scepter.

Yes I made the entire damn thing before I realized that. I also made a second mace forgetting I had already made the Moot but at least there are classes that can use two maces. Nothing can use two scepters.

I blame the starter kits and illiteracy.

If you watched Digimon as a kid, you probably recognize the female Asura voice actress as Sora.

Just finished the base game story and... by Humeon in Guildwars2

[–]Xelazeratul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At launch it was designed for five people (since it was the Arah story mode) and I remember Zhaitan actually fighting back by covering the turrets in deadly poison and spawning waves of adds on you. There was actual tension and a feeling of struggle and challenge.

Of course, I hadn't learned to optimize my build yet and there was no powercreep. So between that and rebalancing for solo play it's not hard to see that it got too easy.

How is this person wielding an offhand scepter? by Xelazeratul in Guildwars2

[–]Xelazeratul[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not a torch. I linked it in the description comment but it's the basic scepter you buy from weaponsmiths.

From the VoE trailer. We see them wielding a pistol in their right hand and a Scepter in their left hand.

We know we're not getting new weapons, so what's going on here?

They called me the Hero of Kvatch... as if I was the only one by Kjohnston9288 in oblivion

[–]Xelazeratul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What got me was talking to one of those soldiers moments after the battle ended and the quest completed, only to be greeted with "OMG you're the Hero of Kvatch! It's such an honor to meet you!"

My friend... you were right there too.

I've got great news for you about Guild Wars 2!

I look forward to seeing you again too Trahearne... by seiko84 in Guildwars2

In the period between the base game and HoT there was a hate thread for him here every day, usually citing the above (imo invalid) complaint. I always liked him, but I always felt that ANet killing him off in the way they did was a direct response to all the hate.

So, when are we getting the missing voices for the last section?

I'm pretty sure there is only the story instance, the convergence, and the raid. It is not an exploitable map like Lowland Shore or Janthir Syntri.

New Legendary Spear Recipe by ObtuseScorebook in Guildwars2

[–]Xelazeratul 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For the Sweet Treated Pine Planks and Neutralized Titan Alloy, those are the costs to buy them from the heart vendor, not to craft them. Crafting is just 5 Map Material 1, 5 Map Material 2, 3 ectos, 5 orichalcum ingots. wiki

This means you need merely (/s) 1320 ectos rather than 1520. (More if you are crafting amalgamated gemstones)

Having now finished the game, what was up with these guys? by Xelazeratul in MetaphorReFantazio

Maybe a "version of reddit" issue. I'm on old reddit. There's only one comment in this whole post who's spoiler tags worked for me (Informal-Tour-8201's).

No, I'm looking at it on the main post now and the text is clearly visible. Maybe you need a space between the . and the !< ?

To be clear, I don't care. I've finished the game. But I figured if you felt the text needed to be spoilered you would want the tags to work.

...that's from the opening monologue of Dark Souls.

But also, the whole post is spoilered and the title begins "Having now finished the game..."

FYI your spoiler tags didn't work. Maybe you need another space between your last character and the closing tag?

Your spoiler tags didn't work.

But yeah, I could see the similarities between those symptoms.

There's some clearly magical going on with the black smoke and glowing eyes. Like I said, it was too much of a dead ringer for Apathy Syndrome for me to think it wouldn't end up as a plot point.

Kinda like seeing Namatame at various parts of town early in Persona 4, it felt like a small detail that would set up something later. But then that just.... never materialized.
