Ya know, I wonder if I can play Morrowind on my Raspberry Pi 3 with OpenMW

[editline]edit[/editline]

This is it on the Pi 2, apparently it's significantly faster on the Raspberry Pi 3, round about Xbox original levels of performance, so apparently yes, I can.

I've been getting back into ESO, since I haven't really touched it in over a year or so. Is it still true you don't have to sweat your build too much in PvE as long as it works for you? I know metas change in MMOs all the time.

[jackfu]

Speaking of Morrowind, I've finally got around to updating my mod guide! I'm sorry for the wait, it was just that I was busy with other things. The biggest change is swapping out MPP for the more comprehensive Patch For Purists. Other than that, I've also added a few more sections to it like the official addons and such. Let me know of any bugs and I'll track them down.

Pretty much, at least in terms of levelling, you can try out whatever sounds fun and still be okay. I think people even do some dungeons with random groups so it can't be that strict.

You've picked a good time to come back to ESO, the new outfit system is a lot of fun and if you're not already level 50, you'll now get advice and rewards as you level with the advisor system they've just added.

those work too but there's no pun there
tbh they're a mix of cultures rather than having one in particular they're based on, just like the Dunmer

You can make it look like you're wearing/using any armor/weapon in the game (that you know how to make), regardless of what you're actually wearing/using. For weapons, the weapon type (1H, 2H, or staff) dictates what appearances are available, so you can't be using a 2H sword that looks like a staff. For armor, however, there are no restrictions, so you can be wearing light armor, but look like you're wearing heavy armor (or vice-versa).

[Venomousbeetle]

you can also dye weapons now

I [B]need[/B] this

[Curls]

There is an argument over zone about how warden/templar skills dont matter and anyone can heal, and that sorc is all thats needed

its "just subjective and you're just flexing you're HPS", but HPS is everything, if you can't burst heal you're dead. If you arent buffing tank your team is screwed

[Curls]

Stamblade (agree) or Magblade (Informative)

I want away from the siphon/team abilitiesbecause I'm tired of focusing on other people

But will it have enough reduced survivability even with a healer around, that the extra DPS won't be worth it?

[IAmIroningMyDog]

How has this game changed since release because I'm getting bored and want to start playing an MMO again

I was a healer when I played in the first little bit after initial release and I swear it's like babysitting. I don't think some of them even understand how to not be idiots.

The greatest advantage that templar will always have over any other class is that you don't have to aim your heals. There's no cat wrangling. You just click and heal.

Sometimes people just walk directly outside of my healing circles. ~why~

Note that the best support ult in the game is locked behind pvp and so is one of the best stam dps skills and also the only (proper) stam heal in the game outside of warden obviously.

[Venomousbeetle]

which is lame as fuck

The good:
Enemy scaling has been reworked. You can do the main story regardless of level now. There's 5x the amount of armor sets in the game now, upping build diversity. Any quest and any region is accessible at all levels and factions. Almost every skill is different than at release. You can buy a home and furnish it with ingame currency. And just recently you're now able to change the appearance of each piece of armor with ingame currency, should you have the crafting style.

The bad:
You can change your weapons minor bonus it gives (trait) but its locked behind the Clockwork City campaign.

The ugly:
There's seasonal lootboxes now.

Personally I couldn't stomach the game during beta/release, but after playing it with a friend its pretty decent now, as long as you don't mind cosmetic and convenience microtransactions.

Is the lockpicking still the same? I loved that they basically used the oblivion lockpicking system (which imo is still the best lockpicking system in a game)

[Curls]

Doing a normal dungeon (a low level one no less) with a nightblade that just spams focused aim and spins around is embarrassing

level 100, has no health (I can understand this for pure damage builds), and still pulls no DPS

Did this person buy a used account what the hell is going on with your build lol

[editline]17th February 2018[/editline]

The only explanation I can come up with is they farmed dolmans

[Venomousbeetle]

It seems the attitude for the game around its reddit community and such is that "all things are viable, play how you want" and they probably wanted to do spins and shit

Must not realize that that attitude is a bit different and becomes more min-max style when you start doing group raid content
