not the bun itself, the actual hot dog.

The so called "hotdog" is an oinky bun.

Actually, there is a spellcasting class in FFXIV, Blue Mage that *does* have the ability to tank, but you can't use it in current content, but there are achievements to complete old raids with a party of all BLUs so somebody does have to tank.

Well in FFXIV, Paladins alternate between a physical rotation and a magic rotation and they have a heal spell, and a lot of Dark Knight's abilities are technically spells, but both classes primarily fight using swords.

Good thing covid is so mild most people never have to go to the hospital in the first place, if they even realize they have it at all.

Hmm. I guess under this logic someone with covid wouldn't need to self isolate either right? I mean if they aren't supposed to seek medical treatment why should they stay home either? Why wear a mask as well, they should be free to go out in public with the virus as they wish it follows.

mild? Not really

they didn't have to do that, they could have told people, even if it meant going public.

That's the problem, they told people, and nothing happened, because the people that could have done something about it, were either the ones perpetrating it, or they enabled the people below them that were doing it.

I mean, I assume it's a short term thing. I assume they will begin development on 9.2/10.0 soon. You know, if the company survives long enough for that to happen.

Also, all the old bigshots that left the company in the last two years. They left because they knew this was coming, afterall the investigation has been ongoing since 2018. And this is Blizzard we're talking about. There have been stories before of things like this going on. There's really no reason to suspect this isn't real.

On a human level, I'm more worried by the group of individuals that are automatically assuming all this is real, when the allegations have yet to be proven in a courtroom. Innocent until proven guilty is thrown out the window, what matters is picking sides. In other threads about this thing I witnessed users getting labelled as disgusting corporate shills for opting to maintain neutral stances and wait how things play out.
Did any of you bother to read the complaint filed, which is linked in that article?

https://aboutblaw.com/YJw

In case you can't be bothered, here:

Considering multiple former and current Blizzard employees already coroborated the claims in the lawsuit, I'm going to side with reason and say it's real.

Oh also, apparently, something about the game doesn't play nice with RTX cards. People have been reporting during the beta that the game is frying EVGA RTX 3090 cards. Amazon says it's not happening, but there's video evidence of it happening to multiple people.

How bad is the monetization?

So, the game is $40, with no subscription fee. That's actually not that bad. But it's the cash shop that's insane. Their official statement on the matter is "At launch, the cash shop will be cosmetic items only. Starting in the year 2022 we may offer level boosts, trade skill boosts, quality of life and convenience items" So they straight up said "hey, for the first six months the game is not pay to win. After that, anything goes" And also what are "quality of life and convenience items"? So you're telling me I have to pay $40 for the privilege of being inconvenienced by Amazon?

And also like I said, in an MMO, I'm more about the PvE side of things. Dungeons and raids and all that good stuff. From what I can gather, at launch there's only 6 dungeons, there are no raids at level cap, and the dungeons that are there people said are pretty easy. It is primarily a PvP focused game. There's nothing wrong with a PvP focused MMO, it's just not the primary reason I play MMOs. But even then, it almost seems like the earliest adopters get a massive advantage since they'll be able to buy up all the territories, then everyone else will have to fight them for resources. Idk. Maybe that part of the game won't be so bad, hard to say.

Mostly my issue with the game is, I do not trust Amazon.

I've gotten back into Dominion recently, picked up Dark Ages, which I'm actually enjoying quite a bit but I only have a few other expansions, Intrigue which I've never been crazy about, Seaside, and Prosperity. I was wondering if any of the other/more recent expansions are worth picking up? I know they're still coming out with expansions, but I don't really know a whole lot about them.

Forerunners are a name that someone calls you long after you're gone and your history is forgotten. It's not a name your species calls itself.

The Halos exist to wipe out the food source of the Flood and halt their spread. This is apparently necessary because they can't be killed or contained. Yet your weapons do just fine against them and they were contained on the Halo for probably millennia before the Covenant arrived.

The last time the halos fired was like 100,000 years ago, so they've been there a while

So I got Halo the Master Chief Collection in the Steam sale, and previously I had only played Halo 1 and I'm liking Reach so far. But the Halos themselves don't make any sense to me. So they're superweapons that kill all complex life in the galaxy when fired to stop the Flood. So the Forerunners put ecological preserves on the surface of the rings so they can repopulate the galaxy in case they ever need to fire the rings to kill the Flood. But, they also put Flood on the rings to contain and study them, so if they ever break out (and they seem to always break out) they then have an entire world of food available to them, thus requiring the rings to be fired. Which is makes the entire ecological preserves on the rings moot because the act of firing the ring would kill all life on the ring anyway.

Either the Forerunners are the dumbest aliens in all of scifi, or Bungee are hack frauds at writing.
