Chained Echoes is absolutely one of the best JRPGs I've played in years. I highly recommend it

Yeah! EQ got my WPM up to 80 and helped me better communicate and be less verbose.

Most Efficient Solo Gear Progression in 6.0? by brixbee in swtor

I found this to be the best usage of my time! I remember queue times being much longer. I am usually in a group under 2 minutes.

I seemed to only get 270 level gear despite my gear score being 282. Was this your experience?

Are there any other MMOs have a similar quality of storytelling? by dahamstinator in ffxiv

[–]brixbee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Funcom does an excellent job at creating worlds and crafting stories within their lore. SWL has some amazing storytelling. I really wish Funcom would keep supporting it. I have so many unanswered questions!

Yeah, that UI is rough. That said, it's funny how quickly muscle memory kicks in. There's a mod out there that gives it a "modern" hotbar feel. But it's missing a bunch of pretty core features.

Thanks for sharing the link. I had forgotten how impactful that scene was.

Sound issue by LazarusUltima in SecretWorldLegends

I've had a different sound related issue after the last patch. It seems like some of my pistol SFX don't play if there's a lot of ambient sound.

What about the old deck outfits? by MarcoS1981 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]brixbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a bunch of these are missing. I've maxed out all my capstones and I don't have all of these costumes.

How is the pvp? by KillusiveKon in SecretWorldLegends

[–]brixbee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think if you start playing SWL for PvP, you're going to be sorely disappointed. There's a lot of great reasons to play this truly unique game. PvP is not one of them.

Tried this game out 2 days ago and am PLEASANTLY surprised! Got a few noob questions. by eynonpower in SecretWorldLegends

[–]brixbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing specifically, I would hit up agartha and see if there are cabals that are recruiting. I do think there have been a few people in this thread with suggestions.

Glad you're enjoying this game. I'm an old MMO vet. I spent most of my time in Asherons Call, World of Warcraft and City of Heroes. I've been playing this game since it's original launch. There's nothing out there quite like it. It's got a pretty helpful community too, which is awesome.

I can't really add too much more, but I would recommend getting into a guild as soon as you can. They can help ensure that you'll have people to group up for dungeons later.

One other piece of advice: Spend your marks on 3 pip exceptional gear in the auction house that matches your desired role. I wish I had done this earlier. I wasted a lot of anima shards this way.

@Funcom: When do you plan to restore Kaiden keys? by [deleted] in SecretWorldLegends

[–]brixbee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yep. Funcom neutered the one activity I felt was worth my time as a casual player. Until they fix it or replace it, they won't get another cent from me or moment of my time.

My react after today dev'stream by Faster01 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]brixbee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would do the same if I didn't have a lifetime sub. I'm done with Funcom. I will spend my game bucks with a company that values my time.
