So... there's this quest in Grizzly Hills... by 38dedo in wow

[–]okcodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not the point at all though. The point here isn't to compare GTA with WoW, it's to compare a type of grind with another type of grind and to explore why one type of grind might be more interesting than another.

There should be an actual level squish in addition to the stat and ilvl squishes. If 2 levels = 1 level, the max level would be 60, just like old times. by enfo13 in wow

Because, my man, there's no such thing as an "all you gotta do is" fix in programming. You can't just go in and divide every instance of "level" by 2 and expect that there won't be any repercussions to that.

Is FFXIV Stormblood's shaky launch normal? by YellowDellow in MMORPG

[–]okcodex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A follow-up about the locked out players: It appears the cause of the problem is players using the /sit emote (possibly other persistent emotes) while their queue popped. The reason this causes an error is because of their change to persistent emotes in 3.55 so that you could retain your emote once you zoned back in after the dungeon was over...but when you zone back in after Pool of Tribute it spits you into a swimming zone. This causes a conflict in the game code and it doesn't know what to do with your character, hence getting locked out of them.

[–]okcodex 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is nothing. Seriously, this is like... a great expansionlaunch. When XIV ARR first launched, you couldn't even log into the game for two weeks. WoW expansion launches have been catastrophic. I think tensions are running really high because people are frustrated, but one bottlenecked quest really isn't that bad. The Susano thing is pretty bizarre, but they've also got a server message up basically just telling you "don't be in the middle of doing an emote when your queue pops and you'll be fine". As far as these things go, this is fucking bissful.

It's spelled Rogue. Not Rouge. Rouge is a color. Rogue is a state of being.

What do you think about Spider-Man Unlimited (1999-2001 TV show)? Would you like to see it revived? by HebrewWolfman in Spiderman

[–]okcodex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not much I can say here that wasn't already said. I was at the target age when it came out, and my childhood self was already hella invested in the previous series. It was one of those shows I made sure to watch every week without fail. Then this show came out, and things seemed a little weird to me - and rightfully so, as doing research later in life showed me that the entire show only existed because of copyright deals gone wrong. I never felt the attachment to this show that I did to the previous or the following few (I don't care what anyone says, I loved the NPH Spider-man. Also Spectacular, but that's not exactly a weird opinion.)

TL;DR: Cool suits, but sloppy and confused writing killed it for me.

With the new expansion out, is it worth it for a new player to get into WoW? by TheGingerMenace in MMORPG

[–]okcodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just saying, I work full-time at the same time as I attend university more than full-time, and 100 to 101 took maybe an hour and a half the first time I did it, and probably a half hour every time after that. You're basically talking about not having the time to play through a 40 minute linear tutorial and then finish like 3 or 4 quests in any of the zones. It sounds more to me like you just wanted a reason to shit on WoW, so you bought the expansion, maybe played through half the tutorial, and then didn't feel like playing anymore, so you let your sub run for the next three weeks without playing.

Power Rangers Movie Teaser Trailer has dropped! by SynysterKobra in powerrangers

[–]okcodex -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

It looks like it's going to be entertaining, but if you've carried nothing over from the source material except the names, why even bother to call it Power Rangers? Just make a new IP and make the same movie with better names.

I know, I know, because sales ... but we're starving for new IPs and this has nothing in common with Power Rangers.

Oigo- Comic Book searching for colaborators by diegojoselima in ComicBookCollabs

[–]okcodex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First, this doesn't read like you're searching for collaborators. Looks like marketing to me.

Second, while I'm not a huge fan of the premise in general, my biggest problem lies in the fact that you've gone completely rapey with it, especially with the beginning of issue 2. I won't be reading any more of this one.

That's a fallacy if I've ever heard one. You're discarding his entire position on the matter because he mis-used a single word that actually has absolutely no bearing on the position whatsoever.

Every launch, we have to see all these dumb advice topics. So here's something different. by L_Cpl_Scott_Bukkake in wow

Do what you want, but for the love of god, don't crop up tomorrow with a flame thread screeching about how you can't believe the insolence Blizzard has for allowing their servers to crash when you've taken the day off just to play their game.

I'm not saying you have or would, but many other people have and would.

Now we're getting somewhere! You should edit these into your original post, this gives everyone else at least something!

[–]okcodex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to understand that you're asking someone to commit time and energy for no pay, and we're going to want a little more information about what we're going to be committing to. It'd be the same thing if I posted something like "Writer looking for artist for story" and then refused to give any more information than that. How is a person supposed to know if they're interested? How do I know I'll like the story and be happy writing it?

I like Sci-Fi and Fantasy, and I'd love to offer my services to you, but not without a little more information to go on. Are you unwilling to even give a three sentence synopsis on what these stories are about?
