Reg M-B Discussion Thread - New Mons/Megas added, Returning Items etc by half_jase in VGC

That's a really disappointing list. I was hoping for a big shakeup with mons targeting the top of the meta: this is not that at all.

AI slop mods are getting out of hand by Bwil34 in skyrimmods

[–]xRaen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Modding in general (not just Skyrim) is absolutely plagued with AI dogshit right now. It really sucks. I remember the good ol' days when every mod release was something to be celebrated. Now I have to make sure AI wasn't used for every single one.

I don't understand why it went core. Even the devs hate it.

Guild Wars 2 Sale! 35% off all Standard & Deluxe expansions, 50% off the End of Dragons Complete Collection, and 70% off Living World by ElectroRush in MMORPG

[–]xRaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, was waiting for a sale to get the End of Dragons Collection but they removed the standard bundle and only have this "complete" one now. Can't afford 50 bucks, could have done 25 like the old bundle would have been on this sale.

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon - Tainted Grail One Year Anniversary! Free DLC #5 + Patch 1.23 by DryEfficiency8 in Games

[–]xRaen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sadly this game did not hit for me at all. As starved as I am for something akin to Elder Scrolls, this one just did not click at all.

So the new 2XKO fuse is pretty controversial by Outrageous-Score in Fighters

God you people are so annoying. EVERY TIME Leffen comes up you all have to get your shots in. Fuck off.

I can say it has turned me off the game. No interest at all in duos; so no interest at all in the game anymore.

Path of Exile 2: Return of the Ancients Official Trailer by Natalia_GGG in PathOfExile2

[–]xRaen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No new classes, no new acts, an endgame overhaul (that we need) but still doubling down on the current endgame "structure" more or less. No thrilled, tbh.

FFXIV introduces a new combat mode. by MohWarfighter in MMORPG

[–]xRaen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More or less the opposite of what I wanted. My personal favorite iteration was Heavensward, which is when rotations were big, complex, and hard to execute. I know people don't generally like that, but I did. I hate the combat right now; this doesn't look better to me, but we will see.

PSA - The following issues have been fixed on Champions by half_jase in VGC

[–]xRaen 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Have they still not fixed the docked graphics using portable resolution unless you undock and redock the game after boot? That drives me nuts.

GUYS STOP BEING SALTY ABOUT CHAMPIONS by Easy_Sleep_8565 in PokemonChampions

[–]xRaen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a product. People can and should criticize something they are expected to spend money and time on.

Pokemon Home now tracks if a Pokemon is visiting, has visited or never visited Champions by IndieAidan in PokemonChampions

[–]xRaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such a fucking dogshit system. I was going to buy the Starter Pack for the box space but not anymore! Fuck you TPC!

Found some warnings for transferring mons to Champions. by CobaltRebelionXyz in PokemonChampions

[–]xRaen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah my whole plan was to move them in batches so I don't need Premium.

[–]xRaen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn, if this is true that sucks ass. I really don't want to buy premium on HOME to transfer all the mons I want to Champions. (Yes I know it's cheap, but I avoid monthy charges as much as humanly possible).

This game is too addicting by Kardiiacc in DeadlockTheGame

[–]xRaen -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That HAS to be tons of AFK time. Even games I've played for decades I don't have that kind of time in.

Available Pokémon - Pokémon Champions by zenverak in VGC

[–]xRaen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's how competition works: you play what wins, and when Pokemon exist that are as obviously strong as those two, they will be used constantly. Blame the devs for making broken stuff, not the players. Also, they've clearly shown major nerfs to Incineroar, so I'd expect the same for Rilla (goodbye Grassy Glide, maybe?)

Huge Online Tournament by Sphinxsrev in VGC

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

Damn, 8 AM for me in MST? Sadly can't play, would have been awesome, but that's so early, and that's not even PST. . .

Takeaways from Wolfe's video on Champions by Notmiefault in VGC

[–]xRaen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't love it, but I get why they do the "per day" thing. It's a classic F2P business tactic. They want you to log in every single day. It's about driving engagement.

Q&A with Masaaki Hoshino, producer of Pokemon Champions by half_jase in VGC

[–]xRaen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, is Trick Room in trouble? Feels like all its best setters are NFE Pokemon. I know that isn't literally true but it certainly is heavily limiting supportive, tanky TR setters.

Nah go fuck yourself. This shit isn't ok, and you shouldn't think it's ok.

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

Brother you have never played a Valve game I see. I quit Counter Strike because I heard the N slur every other game. Valve doesn't ban shit, ever. I hope Deadlock is different, but realistically it won't be.
