I’ve ditched the junior part, I’m a plain old Level Designer now. ?

Gota be honest though, A Dance with Dragons was not a good book. The decline of the show is consistent with the decline of the books.

I got to level 83 and BP level 55 until I fell off hard. I got good enjoyment out of it but that’s the end of the road for me, and that’s fine! Game’s pretty good but everyone I’ve spoken to felt it’s not doing a great job keeping players engaged. I’ll keep an eye on it for curiosity’s sake to see if they can get people to return for season 2.

The FF7 remake is going to redeem the franchise from its downward trajectory after FFX. If you never had your mind blown when stepping outside of Midgar for the first time, realizing the city was only a smaller part of a larger (content rich) world, you missed out. These days I feel worlds are just big for the sake of being big. Top 3 gaming moments for me. That game has been an enormous influencer on A LOT of people working in the industry.

I remember back in 99/00 looking forward to each new episode. It’s been 20 years. ?

I’d compare it to a any healthy relationship: management trusts me and I trust the management. I finally have a job where I’m passionate about everything I do, and while I took a pay slash (I went from senior/manager to junior), it didn’t kill me.

There’s this preconceived image of the industry that I don’t recognize now that I’m in it. I’m positive there’s a lot of truth to it, but I think it’s worth pointing out that not every job/studio ”is like that”.

I’m going to have some cool stuff to share this summer! ?

No, there’s no market. The pity timer for an heirloom item is 500 crates ($500), and the drop rate is so low, chances are good you won’t get it before the timer kicks in.

Ya boi unboxed the $500 Wraith knife.

Oh right, Blothund main for lyfe.

If it's not on Twitter, it's happening someplace else. These individuals are slaves to their own egos, and the human ego will find its outlets. It's arguing for the sake of arguing - there's no point to it.

Plus you can find the epic ones completely kitted.

From my experience it’s basically useless to have any light ammo gun, unless you are at the very beginning, facing unarmed or just pistol-armed enemies. Although I managed to kill two armed guys whilst I only had the throwing ninja-star-looking thing, and one with melee only (from behind).

I understand the attachments/armour colours.

The r-301 rifle with light ammo deals 14/28 (body/headshot), full auto with high accuracy. The flatline, also a rifle, though heavy ammo, deals 16/32 full auto with less accuracy. As an example. It’s more about preference.

Guns are not tiered, they’re preference (and situational). Play with them and find some that you like. I mostly roll with the wingman pistol, longbow rifle and peacekeepe shotty. Attachments are tiered however and corresponds to the same color coding as skins. White < Blue < Purple < Yellow. When you tag a blue armor for instance, the voice line goes ”armor here, level 2”. I don’t think it’s complicated, it’s basically Quake 3 pickups on steroids with all the attachments, that you learn the depth of over a few hours of gameplay.

That’s just amazing looking, @[HP]

Weapons and ammo are color coded. If you have a teal weapon icon in your inventory, you need teal ammo, etc.

To anyone reading this two years later. The switch was 110% worth it.

Yep.. ?

Seems OK so far (I’m not that far in yet). Nothing amazing. But it’s the best Final Fantasy since 2001 which is depressing. I watched the optional ”story-so-far” cutscenes, and I still can’t make much sense if the convoluted story. But it doesn’t really matter, it’s good guys vs bad guys, and combat is kind of enjoyable.

I’m all for healthy competition as long as the platform(s) can deliver on QoL features that are important to me, such as cloud saves and automagic usb controller input support. Steam is very refined in that regard. I’m not sure I understand what the supposed price reduction was about? Is that a US exclusive? Because it’s still €60 in Europe, so why put that in the PR. ?‍♂️

Demo? Love that they’re going full on retro.
