  1. IT’S ABOUT TIME! Finally, we get to see the NX tomorrow. Tomorrow will likely consist of:
    – The NX’s actual name.
    – Breath of the Wild running on the NX.
    – It will be a 3 minute trailer.
    – There will likely be a Direct Next Week.
    What do you all think the NX will be? That hybrid or a handheld and console? Either way I cannot wait to see the NX tomorrow. I’ll be in school and I’m afraid that I will scream! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ae192fad0f1bbceb6b107862d80cf96e7def863badb220a3ff1b82ef8a7d4038.png

  3. Alright I’m feeling almost as salty as earthen right now after a bad raid. Don’t suppose anyone has some cute fan art on hand?

    As for who I’d pick among these goofballs, I’d say none of them. Their all pretty forgettable and really not that impressive. But that’s my opinion.

      • FF14 Raid. I haven’t played wow in years, but think traditional raids, but party’s are all pugs. Going by WOW equivalent’s, we had a crappy Deathknight tank who could barely hold aggro over a mage, died several times during the fight, including on the trash phase of a boss, and crappy healers that struggled to keep people up. One major mechanic of the game are limit breaks. Think FF7. Powerful attacks that do different things. Tanks dive a defense buff, healers heal and can mass party rez at max, and dps…Well dps. Basically we had a weaker party of DPS that was struggling to get through the phases, so naturally I popped our lb’s when they were at max since we really needed the dps. In the end we lived at about .1% of the boss’s hp before engage. After that the tank and one of the healers pretty much called me an idiot for using them, since they felt that we should have saved them for the mass rezzes if needed, when I and fortunately another dps openly said we didn’t have the numbers to do without it. Then the healer pretty mcuh called my dps crap because I was being a bit lazy with it, which I was though its kind of hard not to be with the fight, and then we wiped again when the tank proved they were absolute trash.

        So I’m just a little salty that people are saying that they know my class better then I do, when they clearly aren’t paying attention to our dps numbers. That, and we would never need a mass rez of people are doing mechanic correctly, or healers are actually doing their jobs. At least the fight has some rocking music.

          • Thanks for letting me vent. I’ve had worse groups over the years, but this one really just struck a nerve with me. Ah well. I”ll just run it this weekend or something. I’ve done the fight plenty of times now and it’ll be easy.

        • That’s some crazy bad PUG raid… 🙁

          In my final raids before I quit, we had competent tanks, competent DPS and competent leader and we still die… 😀

  7. Probably means nothing, but Masuda tweeted out about the NX reveal. I imagine it’s more just the fact that it’ll be the next system Pokemon goes to.

  8. I honestly couldn’t be less excited about the NX. But then, I wasn’t excited about the 3DS at all until XY were announced. As soon as it has ties to Pokemon I’ll be interested.
