This is some good hype! I hope with their recent retrospective video they can craft a good story. If there are white mantle, I hope they aren’t copy pasted from Bloodstone Fen or Lake Doric. Less bloodstone crazed and more cult-like worship from GW1.
Laptops use a 2.5 inch HDD, most desktop cases are designed to hold a 3.5 inch HDD. You may need a special bracket to hold the drive if the case you plan to use only has 3.5 inch bays.
Some modern cases do also include a 2.5 inch mounting spot due to SSDs using a 2.5 inch form factor.
It’s a little subjective. If you don’t do any map completion, jumping puzzles, or events and just move from story mission to story mission, you can do it in a few days. Hardcore speed runners can probably do it in less. Story chapters unlock every 10 character levels, ensuring you’re at max level when you get to the end of the core game.
There aren’t many achievements tied to the core game story. Most of the PvE achievements are related to things in the open world until expansions where achievements also exist in story instances. I’ve played since beta and haven’t completed all of them. Achievements like “Shield Master” just take so much time, because you have to get 5,000 killing blows with a shield.
I hope this is informative.
There is a ship in Amnoon that will take a character whose already unlocked that map. For characters that haven’t been there yet, you can buy an Istan Portal Scroll (at the docks in the Domain of Istan).
You have my vote already!
I have been slow rolling the AA, passively getting it while playing normally. My first two are going to the big ticket items. Griffin skin and legendary chest.
I always had pretty perky nipples. When I got them pierced, they became dangerous! I was always weirdly self conscious of my pokies as a man and began wearing undershirts as padding to make it less noticeable. If it bothers you, wear something a bit thicker, maybe hangs a bit looser on your shoulders.
Or, embrace 'em and #FreeTheNipple. Everyone has a pair (more or less). Just roll with it.
As was already stated, capitalism is unsustainable. It seeks infinite growth in a world of finite resources. Capitalism will almost always place short term financial gain over long term issues.
There are only two financial classes. The owner class and the working class. It doesn’t really matter if you make 30k a year or 300k a year. If you sell hours of your life for a salary, you are part of the working class. Capitalists make passive income off others labor. Being “pro-capitalism” is essentially saying that you’re okay giving all but the littlest amount of value you produced to someone else. This is paraded as a good thing in the United States.
It’s hard to know exactly how well the spears will perform before testing. They will no doubt adjust skills as needed. Can’t speak on the gameplay since we haven’t played with them yet.
The designs look cool, but like many streamers have mentioned, some of the ground effects could cause issues with enemy telegraphs.
