The Queue: Yep, still playing Cyberpunk

I’ve done two of the five (or six? I hear conflicting things) endings so far and I’m working on a third, just to get to see them, before going back to completing the entire world, which is going to take me a very long time. I just found Johnny’s old car, which was fun.

Anyway, it’s the Queue, and I’m wondering if Diablo 2: Resurrected will be out by my birthday. Since that’s in December, I hope so.


JALAMENOS HAS A LOT OF DAYS PLAYED

I passed 300 days /played on my main character today.

I’m not sure how to feel about that.

That’s pretty good. My two most played alts have about 520 days played between them, so you’re on track.


ARTHONOS THINGS THE OLD GODS SHOULD LIVE ON A PLANET THAT LOOKS LIKE FARCRY BLOOD DRAGON IS BEING SHOT ON IT

Looking at that header image again, it looks very Void-y. I hope if we get to do a planet hopping cosmic adventure expansion we get to see an Old God infested planet that looks like that.

I personally think that the Old Gods live in Whimsyshire.


ABOMINABLE ROXXII GIVES MY COMPLAINING WAY TOO MUCH CREDIT

Matt’s complaining worked!

If my complaining worked I’d have three hundred pairs of shoulders by now.


SILVERKEGS CHATS ABOUT NPC NAMES

Roberto Pupellyverbos, Hankerin Ferinale.

What are some of your favorite WoW NPC names?

I’m going to have to go with Choofa.

I’m also fond of Joanna Blueheart, because I like to imagine that it’s a family name that’s been passed down since her great, great grandmother, who was just extremely sad.

Also, Prospector Remtravel, who for years I thought was named Rumtravel, which made sense to me because he’s the worst escort quest in existence. He indeed travels like he’s been into the rum.


KALCHEUS COULD PROBABLY USE WEAKAURAS FOR THAT

Q4tQ: Is there a way to have Rampage stay highlighted as long as you have enough rage? Sometimes it procs at the end of combat, and by the time I engage a new enemy it’s no longer dark but at the same time it doesn’t have the swirling gold highlight so I forget to use it, embarrassing Warriors everywhere by remaining rage capped.

I mean, WeakAuras could probably help you out, or some other addon. I’ve never used the Conflict Rotation Optimizer, but it seems to be along those lines, as does MaxDPS.

There’s also the Bitten’s Spellflash addon, which has a Warrior module as well.


MUSEDMOOSE, SOMETIMES YES AND SOMETIMES NO

Q4tQ: when you play through games where your choices change things more than once, do you make the same choices?

Asking because of the Mass Effect remasters coming out in May. I know they’re giant games, and that your choices matter, but I don’t know if I’ll feel like playing through them more than once to see what happens when I do things differently.

(Also because sometimes I think about playing through Persona 4 Golden again to see some stuff I missed but it’s not like I’m going to make different choices or romance someone other than Rise, so… yeah.)

Well, right now I’m in the middle of two simultaneous playthroughs of Cyberpunk 2077, one that I’ll call the jack@$$ playthrough and the other is more of a heroic antihero. On the first one, I do things like shoot patients because the doctor I’m trying to extract from a clinic refuses to leave until she’s done treating them, while on the second playthrough, I in fact help the doctor. That sort of thing.

I often do this kind of thing while playing these kind of games. In Dragon Age for example, I very deliberately wiped out the Werewolves for Zathrian and killed Caridin on my Dalish Elf, because she was a Dalish Elf and wouldn’t care about the Werewolves attacking another Dalish clan, nor would she care about some weird Dwarf golem. She was there to get their help with the Blight, so she ruthlessly pursued that goal, unlike my Human who was all about being kind and helping everyone he met.

Ultimately I want to see more of the game. So I tend to make very disparate decisions. My V’s are very different people, with different lives (the more ruthless one is a Street Kid, while the more heroic one is a Nomad) and different goals.

Okay, that’s the Queue. Y’all be good now, and ask lots of questions for Mitch.
