Pretty sure they’re confusing The Smith as The Butcher in 2 Read more

Exactly.  I did two of the three available early access characters to beta max (25), on hardcore.  I had zero issues.  I didn’t feel they were too strong or too weak to handle anything, and as you’ve said - this is a snippet of the game.  In fact, my Barbarian thorns build with barrier legendary affixes outshone my Read more

D4 just took over my weekend in a way that I wasn’t expecting. It’s not doing anything new, really, with the Diablo formula. But it looks real good and has that perfect dopamine drip. I am all the way in at this point. Give me that head-empty demon-killing goodness. Read more

These are comments, he's probably replying by using his phone. He capitalizes in the article Read more

I played most of the weekend and I still don’t know how I feel about it. It feels like they took Diablo 3, Outriders and Dragon Age:Inquisition in a blender and this is what came out.

I’m curious on the use of “perf”. I get that it is shortening perfect but, why not just write perfect? You’ve already committed to half the word’s length, are you really saving anything by not including the 3 remaining letters? I’m sure I’ll be accused of being “old” or whatever but that kind of slang shortening seems

I wish it would give me more time to mindlessly smash things by *shutting-the-fuck-up*. They made the protagonist talk so that he could ... say nothing.

This is wholesome as all heck. Everybody involved, give yourself a pat on the back. Read more

Maybe this act of public shaming will be a good deterrent that makes hackers think twice before using cheats.

I don’t mind these guys 1v1, but they like to show up with their friends, and almost any 2v1 is difficult in Wo Long. Read more

This is exactly what I did, and once I learned that my electricity-enchanted bowstaff basically made him immobile during the first phase, it gave me all the confidence I needed.  Read more

I see a lot of folks play this like Dark souls. Dodging and keep distance. Play it like Sekiro. Plant your feet, hold block, and tap parry when he attacks. If you parry late, it gets blocked. If you parry early, you dodge, and get hit. Read more

I’d actually disagree with your first phase advice. Put on some dual swords with the “tornado” martial art, and just spam him with normal attacks and martial arts. He will largely be stunlocked. If you are not aggressive enough on phase 1 you will draw this fight out which increases the chances of making mistakes due Read more

This is almost the exact opposite of what I did.

Phase 1: Go all-0ut attack, as most of his moves get canceled pretty easily Read more
