God I can't wait to play some Pleiades!

I think so? it's been a while since my last playthrough but I seem to remember being able to drop a bridge which lets you avoid the entire upper area!

No the gank squads in Scholar are more manageable to deal with than in vanilla.

And No Man's Wharf just kinda sucks anyway imo, I love the aesthetic, but the gauntlet you have to run through in a near pitch black town with loads of enemy encounters is uuuhhhhh not good?

Yeah but vanilla doesn't have Aldia, so... 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
Also I swear there were loads of gank squads in vanilla too? The ones in Scholar were just more managable

At that point I think I'd rather go play anything else, feels a bit cheap to skip all the gameplay in my game to go watch a movie!

I've been trying to beat arr for 3 years straight 😅 I find it exceptionally unengaging and kinda boring

Christmas every year is my time to grind through the base game on my steam deck whilst with my family and let me tell you this has been going on for 3 years already

It definitely lends itself to why Gacha's are so popular, but it also has a lot of predatory tactics which tempt users back to play everytime, and let's not forget, most characters are designed to appeal to the user, making them desirable

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly it

On the topic of DA I unfortunately can't say shit, I never really liked any DA game 😅

FREYA BEST CHARACTER, HER BEING DRAGOON ADDS TO THAT

You can say you like it, but none of those points makes it "objectively" good

As an autistic person I feel like working at naughty dog would be nice because I'd get to work on the same game repeatedly for years

If they could just get rid of all the corporate shilling and actors who clearly don't want to be there it'd be SO much better
Bro I do not care about the Rocks new energy drinks PLEASE JEFF JUST SHOW ME GAMES

I really enjoy when respawning is wrapped up with the universe, Dark Souls is obviously the go to A* approach, but Bioshock did it well too, same for System Shock 2

I think we'll have several different arakni types, each being a different multi class!
