It's not like it is something people here have never seen before.

This forum is open to guests now so we have to be more child friendly I guess.

HAHAHAHAHA fuck no.

Well, it seems my windows install is completely broken now. It keeps hanging randomly, especially when Firefox is open. Other browsers don't seem to work at all.

So I just did a dungeon where all 5 players were Aurin.
I was also the only male character.
brb seeing if my screenshot took properly.

edit:
No I was not a very good healer for those curious.

Wildstar, right?
wish i could play but my computer freezes on the installer. it's kinda ridiculous
"this computer will last you through college ehks" yeah bullshit, if it was more than just a mid-low line laptop then maybe it might but it isn't so it won't.

...a driver my computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements for.

i haven't tried it.

Seriously though can I just rant about our "tank" for a second?

I get that wildstar doesn't like forcing you into roles based on your class but come on how can you pick the sneaky assassin type class and decide "yeah I'm gonna be the tank."
What the hell man, I mean sure she actually tanked wrathbone admirably but the ice bot had my just barely keeping her alive and once the flamelings showed up she melted every time. Maybe I'm not a great healer but I'm not thinking that a stalker should be a tank, it's like a DPS medic or healer engineer, it just seems kinda wrong.

this made me laugh, because ryuu's been playing the game a bit and shared a picture. he and a higher-leveled DPS person went in a dungeon. he was the healer.
he did more damage and stuff than the DPS class.

Yeah I understand DPS medic is super legit but it sounds wrong on paper.

idek if it was on purpose or not, but yeah. it can work.
stealth tank...not so much. like, if having stealth can help you avoid hits and you can have a decent health pool, then it's more viable. but if it's a standard stealthy thing (really low health, really high damage) then
yeah no.

Generally speaking the classes are built to fill any role, so I suspect she had forgone stealth abilities for the stalker's aggro abilities and hopefully a self heal or two, but again it's a principle thing that the whole thing smells fishy, and I'm not sure if she was a bad tank or I was just a truly truly awful healer.

What even is this game?
Is it worth playing?

Wildstar. I'm not invested enough in it yet to say if I like it or not, it's got a great aesthetic but is an absolutely overwhelming amount of everything to take in as you get going.

also it's free-to-play, but there's a subscription thing as well. if my computer could run it i'd probably play it simply because i got a cool free hoverbike for it but my computer dies on the installer.
which is pathetic.

Combat looks interesting.
Character Creation looks detailed.
Graphics aren't over-the-top.
Free to Play.
...
Looks like it meets most of my criteria. May have to try it out.

Does this mean I get people to play with who aren't public groups?

LOL who am I kidding.

Now that my windows system died, it would mean I have to get it to run in wine or make a windows VM...
