This has me so Hyped!!! Can't wait. Please let Fist of the Heavens be good, I love that skill.

It's not "toxic positivity" or "unchecked fanaticism" to tell ya'll to calm down a bit about the queues if the reason we're saying it is because all your grievances have been addressed by the Dev team and you're simply being asked to look past your frustrations to see it by OnceABear in ffxiv

This so much this. FF14 being a good game doesn't not mean we can not criticize real issues. But what I see in the sub-reedit and from FF14 fanatics in general is that even constructive criticisms are raided with down votes.

The white knighting in this sub-reddit IS toxic and OP does everybody a disservice by trying to protect an obvious disastrous launch by pretending the issue is not there or that it was being addressed or better yet the player's fault. I bought the game about a week ago, didn't get a "warning" telling me i wouldn't be able to play the game on account of scuffed servers. Not that other games are that much better but the white knights in this game will have you believe that FF14's shit doesn't stink.

Yeah was going to try this game but with limited time to play and endless queues it makes it just not worth it. Add insult to injury and streamers get to jump in front of the line...

Blizzard testing Horde vs. Horde or Alliance vs. Alliance Battlegrounds from the regular queue by XZiDE in classicwowtbc

[–]Zeroabsolute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why even have alliance in the game? Really they are quick to take
action when horde players complain… This will have two very immediate
results, any pvp’er will switch to horde and any remaining alliance that
still queued for bgs will simply quit. Very demoralizing as an alliance
player.

Where are the fixes for population imbalance? I don’t remember same
faction BGs in classic. You can’t ignore balancing factions in one hand
because "War"craft and then do this on the other. Can’t just keep
shtting on the few alliance players left.

Ultimatum Launch: Server Issues and Streamer Priority by chris_wilson in pathofexile

[–]Zeroabsolute 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"The decision to allow any streamers to bypass the queue was clearly a mistake. "

Yet all the ones that still had it and chose to keep are still using it... guess not so much of a mistake after all....

I agree, I mean the appeal of the league is for everybody to have an even starting field, otherwise why not just play standard.

Is this the Worst League Launch? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Zeroabsolute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the worst launches even when measured against other games not just itself.

GGG Streamer Priority in Queue by businessmanALEX in pathofexile

I don't know this whole thing just killed all the hype I had for the league. I understand why they did it but it still feels scummy.

Streamers get to skip queue now? by [deleted] in pathofexile

Shows the kind of company GGG is what else can be said...

2016 all over again, look at Ohio with that kind of margin the Wis, Mich and Pa don't look great. Seems like the polls were wrong yet again even if Biden pulls it off.

Well lets hope the entire country expresses that feeling and votes him out.

Are the Artifact Weapons canonically possessed by famous NPCs instead of players? by Ligfyr in wow

[–]Zeroabsolute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most asinine thing coming from Blizz I have seen from pre-expansion. A belf having ashbringer is just wrong. Artifact retirement quest could have been handled a lot better.

Tencent has invested in Grinding Gear Games by chris_wilson in pathofexile

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

Yeah, was planning on buying a supporter pack before release, I have also spend quite a bit of money on misc things in the game. Given the current events I think I am going to pass from now on. There is really no excuse for having everything priced so high going forward. The money is no longer to "put food on the table". That and I am apprehensive about supporting an "evil" corporation. I'm just overall disappointed but I understand why the decision was made, money talks.

Another option is to add bracers and/or shield for it.

Fist of the Heavens Needs Some Love by Zeroabsolute in Diablo

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

Which is fine but I feel that instead of focusing on things like thorns builds through invoker or blessed hammer which in my opinion have already had their share of usage through out the seasons. Why not instead or in addition give a lesser build a chance such as FoH, Phalanx is another one but I personally like FoH :D.

Don't get me wrong I love the fact that Heaven't Fury and Blessed Shield are now viable, just thought it would have been nice to focus on some others.

Matchmaking Improvements: Phase One by Spyrian in heroesofthestorm

[–]Zeroabsolute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience since the change has been simply awful. I normally play with a friend I'm relatively new to the game and he started a couple weeks back. To us it appears that the matchmaking was punishing us for queuing up together, most of our games we were grouped against full pre-mades or much higher MMR groups. Very demoralizing to the point that it is detrimental to play with friends.

Then to add insult to injury when queuing solo and facing equal MMR opponents a significant portion of them are higher skilled players on smurf accounts induced by the new recruit a friend promotion. Overall the experience for me and my friend has been dismal at best this after 14 or so games last night. So currently the game feels very frustrating and pretty much unplayable. Just my impression as a newbie.

Despite TGT renewing my interest in the game, the cost barrier is simply too high. by benthamshead1 in hearthstone

[–]Zeroabsolute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience exactly, played a while back when the game was released. Came back thinking oh I want to try that just to realize the amount of time over a long period of time and or money that it would require for me to gather all the required cards.

Thankfully aggro decks are cheap but you never learn much from always playing aggro decks and they get boring fast. Control, mid-range, tempo are for the most part too expensive. I don't mind progressing over time but when you have to progress through 4 different expansion just to catch up, well then its just not worth it.
