The Chat Thread

[Z3us]

Hey guys, since (almost) every forum has one, why not start one here :D

Basically in this thread you talk about anything you want.

Lets start!

[Z3us]

Looks you are all to shy to start a conversation, let me begin.

Hi guys, I'm sitting in front of my computer, eating plums and browsing various forums.
whats up with you?

[ASYLUM101]

I'm working on balancing chemical equations and drawing silly diagrams of triangles, because that's what's required of an engineering student.

I thought this was gonna be about an IRC channel... which isn't a bad idea.

[Z3us]

How old are you ASYLUM101? I'm not familiar with the USA education system so I don't know if you're a student when you're either 16 or 20 years old :s

I thought of this thread more like a forum conversation thread, where u talk about stuff which are to silly to open a new thread about. The casual things...
Could be like an IRC channel too i guess :-)

I'm currently taking a small break from stalking Medierra. I'm likely going to get right back to it after I click the "Submit Reply" button. What's a good pet name for Medierra? You know, something that close buds could use. Med? Medi? Medie? Yeah Medie sounds good. I'm going to try that out. Thoughts?

[Malpheas]

how about "OMGIT'sMEDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!" (A la Beatles fame with shrieking girls)...

You could do that. Mind you you would need a bob and a dress.

As for my chat, I'm playing The Last Remnant right now, on PC. The game is a BLAST. Look into it anyone who's interested in PC nee console games.

Squeenix RPG.

I saw it got terrible reviews, but if you're recommending it, I might give it a look. Though I still am only level 15 in TQ... maybe I should finish that first.

[Z3us]

I have a bad case of crate-employee-stalking myself. I was Medierras first forum friend *feels proud*.

@Cordian: You haven't played Titan Quest until you're level 75! tho I only reached lvl 44

[ASYLUM101]

Lol, Z3us, I haven't even passed 65 yet and I've beaten Legendary with 8 chars.

[Malpheas]

heh, I've only ever made it to lvl 68. That was with a templar; could take ANYTHING. Aionios is the best shield in the game for overall protection, with Zeno's Paradox coming in second.

[Malpheas]

Also: Coridan, if you're interested: Look at www.gamefaqs.com (http://www.gamefaqs.com) for The Last Remnant PC and then look up the review from that version. Gamespot gave it an 8 (http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/thelastremnant/review.html).

I used a green shield on my templar, I already had maxed resistances, so there was no need for Aionios. My ctap was around 30-40, and quick recovery was permanent. :) Anyway, I finished her at 55, I rushed through the game as fast as possible cause it was so easy lol.

I heard leveling from level 60 to level 75 takes more time than from level 1 to level 60. Is that true?

Man I hope I get my PC repaired soon so I can continue to kick ass with my ares level 44 or something and finally finish epic.

Yeah you got that first forum friend dealy, but I was the first to see the screen shot of the GD UI *feels prouder* =)

Hmm this looks like a lot of fun. Okay, you've convinced me. Last Remnant, here I come!

[Malpheas]

AH one thing first.

On Steam I think you can get the demo.

Try that before footing the $39.99 USD bill...

[Coridan]

Okay, will do. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm always looking for games to play.

Yeah it takes a while to get to lvl 75. Just add up the experience and you'll see. As well, boss runs are the best way to go. I used to just cruise hades.

You can also get VERY good experience running Typhon on Legendary.

The single most experience giving enemy (non-boss) have to be those dark obelisks in act 2. Thing is, they're few and far between unless you run the telkine for 2 of them every single time. Chances are there's an exp shrine there too. As well there is at most one on the way to the tomb as well.

[ZZSmufa]

Woo, I'm playing The Last Remnant too! Among other things, I picked it up from Steam's holiday sales and now I probably have enough games to last till Grim Dawn... Too little time to play em. And I should be sleeping, as I have to wake up in about four hours, gah. Oh, and an irc-channel would be nice!

one final pumper - PLAY UNDERLORD (TQ:IT mod) (http://www.moddb.com/mods/underlord).

[Z3us]

All right, thanks for the tips!

Now I'm off to school...

[shawnmck]

I've been taking a break from TQ, and decided to try Hellgate:London again. I can't decide if I like this game or hate it..?

I've also been playing a little bit of Torchlight. The game seems good, but for some reason I just can't play for very long periods before I get bored with it.
Kinda strange.

I'm also trying to decide whether or not to get Killing Floor..? basically it is another zombie game. I just can't get enough zombie killing. I'm like.."ahh, they want to eat my brain", & then I kill em (they really creep me out, in a good way).

I know Grim Dawn & Diablo 3 are still a long ways off, but there are others that I am waiting for that aren't ARPG's. Such as Aliens vs Predator, & Bioshock 2. Red Dead Redemption looks real good also. I'm also waiting for Kingdom Under Fire 2 as well. Other than that there isn't a whole lot that I am excited for (a few others).

My girl-friend sometimes thinks that I play too much video games....What, doesn't she realize that video games are the only thing that keeps me from going totally insane & banging my head against the walls ? :furious:
I am slightly exaggerating, but yeah, without video games I would be a wreck.

Thank God Crate is making gim dawn. I was actually thinking about how I would love another ARPG from the same team that did TQ before I actually heard about GD. I could barely contain my excitement when I did hear the news. :D
My girl-friend wanted to know why I was so happy, but when I told her she got a little upset because it didn't revolve around her. Women :rolleyes:

Sorry for rambling on there for a while. I have plenty of time before I have to head in to work for the day.
It really is great to be on this Forum & to be a part of such an anticipated game. I look forward to not only Grim Dawn, but being a part of this forum as well.
:)

[Coridan]

Woah there. Lay off the coffee =) (jk).

I know what you mean about Hellgate: London. I tried it out twice, and both times I just felt really neutral about it. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad either. It just was. I guess the enemies were a bit bland and lifeless, and the characters and gameplay were the same way.

I played Torchlight for a bit as well, and I really enjoyed it. There were some serious balance issues between classes, and the fact that you can't rerun bosses was a pain. I thought they did an excellent job with the bosses, and that last boss fight which could last up to 45 minutes was great. I just wish they'd let you farm them.

LOL. Hahaha, that's hilarious.

[Malpheas]

And also, if you play underlord, I can ruin your farming experience by giving you all the mythic recipes in a Vault file?
