Touche, forgot this was PatientGamers. Grim Dawn is basically the same sans MMO. It's the best ARPG I've played like, ever, and it's due for a huge DLC soon. Goes on sale for very cheap often.
Unlike Last Epoch, it's more item-focused. Unlike PoE, the items aren't a total nightmare to optimize...
Very interesting - I haven't hit a single bug during my play.
A handful if my PoE friends have picked up Last Epoch which I've found to be more approachable. Little less MMO but a very similar game.
In grad school I worked with MRI data (hence the username). I had to upload ~500GB to our supercomputing cluster. Somewhere around 100,000 MRI images, and wrote 20 or so different machine learning algorithms to process them. All said and done, I ended up with about 2.5TB on the supercomputer. About 500MB ended up being useful and made it into my thesis.
Don't stay in school, kids.
Nah. Fenced epee for a bit in a college club. Height advantage was pretty great. I guess it just depends on the weapon.
There are options to buy premium currency, but even after the massive update last week you can still play for free and have a blast.
Outer Wilds was the best game I played on PS4. I strongly recommend experiencing it for yourself.
I would say the space ship/0g flight is maybe 30% of the gameplay, and you don't need to be really excellent at it, thankfully.
Can't say I've heard anything since launch, so take my advice with a grain of salt.
Grim Dawn Item Assistant is your best friend. While you're at it, Rainbow Item Names (or whatever it's called).
Well if you liked PoE I doubt you'll like D4. It's a much simpler game. Sadly my only advice is to try GD and Last Epoch again. I've got hundreds of hours in the former and I just got 10 hours into the latter.
Last Epoch feels like a more approachable PoE. I thoroughly enjoy how the skills interplay with one another, but I still prefer the itemization in Grim Dawn.
The only reason I'm not playing GD currently is because I have too many QoL mods installed so my cloud saving doesn't work, but I can cloud save for Last Epoch for my steam deck lmao.
Agreed, seems like a no-brainer. Typically this stuff is handled at an institutional level, with bad professors losing/ failing to achieve tenure. But some results have much bigger implications than just "Uh oh, I cited that paper and it was a bad one." Often, entire clinical pipelines are developed off of bad research, which wastes millions of dollars.
