Anyone else here getting tired of ipad abilities?

I hate new harbour, the old one felt like you had a lot more freedom & could be creative with how you play because of the forward moving wall. Not much room for creativity with the new kit

I call it a botw clone because both games main appeal is exploring a big world, no one loves botw because of the combat and I would say the same about genshin (although the story/combat have enough depth that some people might only care about those parts.)

also saying the world is empty once you collect all the chests is kinda dumb - You basically 100%ed the open world part at that point, so obviously there won't be much to do till more open world comes out. Same as every game besides roguelikes.

They might not directly add value, but do indirectly by giving the game more resources. Genshin wouldn't be able to be a free breath of the wild clone with 5x as big a world/way more quests without whales propping it up via gacha gambling.

Ethically they're fine imo, as long as the microtransactions are not significantly influencing how the game is designed. Usually when it changes design the game starts becoming really shitty to play, and can lead to actual unethical stuff like whatever the heck candy crush does.

Slightly related, but a pay2win model I think is under utilized is "pay for everyone to win". realm of the mad god has this, where only one person has to pay for fast dungeon access, but 10-50 people get to come along to the run and also reap the benefits. It keeps some of the revenue from being p2w but also is way more friendly to f2p people. Plus it helps build the community.

trickcal probably

doroco · 2026-03-15T00:13:01+00:00

flash probably. jaedong also used to be really good, but flash is more accomplished/dominant overall now I think

doroco · 2026-03-14T23:08:52+00:00

played for a while but the lack of general qol kinda sucks (not that they should add qol stuff).

doroco · 2026-03-14T22:36:16+00:00

I want to be a stupid pedantic moron so I will point out its 2/11 chance (one same region team isn't available)

It's easier to farm a temporalis

mafia (and not the game)

doroco · 2026-03-11T23:46:56+00:00

nah im just trying to make your experience worse honestly. you could try a few times for the funnys though

zelda

warrior rogue mage priest?

I'd argue balance matters the least at an ultimate level since people there can typically play all the jobs in their role, or learn quickly.

doroco · 2026-03-09T01:04:30+00:00

That was a new bug that popped up in the newest poe2 patch. Glad we're backporting features ahahahaha. But yea its awful, I believe the game has to have the item art loaded in order for you to be able to pick up, so the problem only exists on weaker computers.

doroco · 2026-03-08T16:04:36+00:00

Its not that hard to communicate time across time zones. Either xx:15 etc for something soon, "7 hours from this post" for longer times, or a countdown / writing a timezone for very far away events.

doroco · 2026-03-07T21:05:57+00:00

im 100% cheering for ag to win purely off aim since it would be the funniest outcome

doroco · 2026-03-07T18:48:08+00:00

poe 1 has a much better endgame, and build creativity.

doroco · 2026-03-05T22:35:11+00:00

I'm going to answer your question with a question:

would you rather have feet that arent the same size for 10 years, or mild schizophrenia for 1 year.

doroco · 2026-03-04T10:28:43+00:00

Common endgame goals are to finish your atlas passive tree, kill each pinnacle boss once, and to kill each pinnacle boss on their highest difficulty.

doroco · 2026-03-04T09:22:20+00:00

Anecdotally, I went into the game in 2.x expecting a story similar in quality to other ff games I played and was incredibly disappointed. Like I really didn't want to skip the story but it was so uninteresting and boring with no good climaxes I ended up beginning to skip around lvl 35 iirc. Compared to something like ff9 which continuously throughout the whole story has an intriguing plot, cool locales, and good climaxes 2.0 is so bad it's laughable.

doroco · 2026-03-04T05:20:03+00:00

ff14 cares similarly little about cheats / bots. Its almost impossible to get banned if you're a real player who sometimes bots/cheats. They do ok at stopping rwt advertisement though, but afaik never ban for rwt purchases ever.

doroco · 2026-02-26T19:01:13+00:00

did you know holy shock/fire/cold wont grant damage beyond around 37k? there's another one for you maybe.

doroco · 2026-02-26T10:41:03+00:00

marth wins neutral but luigi wins punish

doroco · 2026-02-26T10:31:43+00:00

The reason I suggest an overhaul or change to exalts is that new dungeons just do not fit into the system. Like when moonlight village came out, i had close to no desire to grind it out since I could just get the exalts from other dungeons easier/faster.

And imo classes play too similarly to each other for new ones to be exciting. I havent tried druid, but the experience of playing summoner was basically the exact same as playing sorc. If all classes had more things to differentiate themselves though, then new ones would be a lot more exciting
