The Lore of the wrld is really, really good. People have literally made hours discussing the lore. Stuff that seems random isn't. If an enemyis an area for some reason that seems random it's not.

@OrigamiRobot Except it is. You just need to look for it. Alos, the "not in your face story" is part of why it works.

Wipqozn

The fact you can miss it is by necessity. Item descriptions and "Talk" dialogue contain a lot of the lore. The reason for this is because if they had it in your face a lot then it would ruin the atmosphere and also the fact that you're in a dying world. It's hard to get the feeling of a dead world if their's story all over your face all the time .Als, what others just said. Letting you ignore story is good.

@MBraedley Not over the weekend after all. But I'll get to it soon! >_<

@StrixVaria It's an optional expansion pack.

We're going to need some way to define content that's only available in it.

StrixVaria

@Frank Do we have separate questions for SC and BW?

I honestly don't know.

One thing to note, though, is that a lot of RoS-specific questions take care of the fact that they're RoS-specific by their nature.

Frank

@StrixVaria We've got Starcraft questions, but I don't think we have a brood war tag.

StrixVaria

14:24

Anything asking about the Mystic, Adventure Mode, Rifts, Gambling, Act 5, or the Crusader is RoS-specific, and anyone who is qualified to answer questions about Diablo 3 will know that.

Frank

I suspect that's partially due to the expansion coming out WAY before the site when live, and everyone just playing Brood War.

StrixVaria

What about SC2 and HotS?

I think that D3 and RoS are probably more closely related than other game + expansion pairs, and the expansion-only content is going to be obvious.

I don't think HotS has its own tag.

starcraft-2-hots is synonymed with starcraft-2

@Arperum FISSION IS VERY LOUD

My daughter decided RoS release date would be a really good time to get a fever and start vomiting. :(

@Sterno by the way, I found out my unborn child is going to be a girl.

@KevinvanderVelden Remove Sterno, Strix and Sterno in that order.

My second one is a boy and I do not yet have datapoints about the awesomeness of that.

Otherwise it will be all for naught!

@badp I panicked!

@Arperum And none of them me.

StrixVaria

@Sterno I kept joking with my wife that if it were a boy I wouldn't love it as much.

She thought I was serious.

Sterno

Heh

Arperum

@OrigamiRobot That's the worst part.

StrixVaria

14:36

I probably would have, though.

SaintWacko

13.5 hours!

StrixVaria

I'm debating how I want to deal with having to sleep and also going to work this week.

Origami Robot

@Arperum FIXING NOW

StrixVaria

My plan tonight is probably to go to bed super early and wake up at like 3AM to play for a few hours before work.

Arperum

@SaintWacko Lies. Less time. But my copy hasn't arrived yet :(

Origami Robot

14:37

@StrixVaria LET ME KNOW IF THOSE HARDCAPS ARE IN PLACE

Sterno

Just treat the D3 expansion like baby practice. Go to bed at 9pm, wake up 30 minutes later, play D3 for 20 minutes, go back to bed and right when you fall asleep again, get back up and play for another 20 minutes. Repeat throughout the night. Occasionally turn that 20 minute block into an hour, and somewhere around 4AM allow yourself 2 full hours of sleep.

SaintWacko

@Arperum What? It releases at 11pm for me, and it's 9:30 am now

StrixVaria

@Sterno That sounds like not really that ideal.

@OrigamiRobot If they are my WD is going to halve in damage overnight.

Sterno

@StrixVaria That's why it's good practice.

SaintWacko

@OrigamiRobot hardcaps?

Arperum

14:39

@SaintWacko Ah, I'm assuming it releases on 12AM CET, which is 8.something hours away.

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria FROM WHICH PART?

StrixVaria

@Arperum It officially releases at 9PM PDT.

Adjust for your timezone.

@OrigamiRobot Crit chance and damage. I'm way over cap on both.

Arperum

@StrixVaria Doesn't matter anyway, since my copy hasn't arrived yet :(

Ben Brocka

So how disappointed in MHS Ground Zeros am I going to be after I played Infamous Second Son first?

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria I REALLY DOUBT YOU'RE THAT FAR OVER THE CRIT CHANCE ONE. THE CRIT DAMAGE ONE WILL DEFINITELY BE HIGHER BECAUSE TWO EMERALDS ARE MORE THAN 250% WITH THE NEW GEMS

StrixVaria

14:41

@OrigamiRobot My crit chance on my WD is 55%. My crit damage is over 400%.

Arperum

I did sign the (first set of) paperwork for buying a house today, now the current owners have to sign that paper, then the whole loan thing has to be done, and then I'll own a house.

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria THE CAPS ARE FOR STATS FROM ITEMS

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot All but 5% of that 55% comes from items.

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria YOU'RE ONLY 5.5% OVER ACCORDING TO YOUR PROFILE

StrixVaria

Also it's items and paragon combined.

@OrigamiRobot What is the cap supposed to be?

Origami Robot

14:43

@StrixVaria THAT'S NOT WHAT I READ.

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot That's how it works for movespeed and gold find. Why would it be different for other stats?

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria I'M JUST TELLING YOU WHAT I READ.

Frank

40% from items, apparently.

I will be very unimpressed if that happens.

StrixVaria

I cannot prove that it will be items+paragon, but I am fairly confident it will be.

Frank

They should at least announce it prior to it going live.

In KSP news: The first videos featuring the NASA Asteroid Redirect Mission (v0.23.5) have been released!

And here are some more.

Q: Will season 2 start immediately?

When patch 2.7 comes live Season 1 will end. Will season 2 start immediately or will there be a preseason first?

This is cool. @yosp told me they're designing second screen gaming for Project Morpheus so everyone can have fun http://sbn.to/1jvuPF3

Tweeted by crecenteb on March 24, 2014 at 1:38 PM

Well I'll be damned. A use for Second Screen gaming that doesn't sound completely terrible

Origami Robot

@StrixVaria REGARDLESS, CRIT DAMAGE WILL CERTAINLY BE HIGHER THAN THE 250% THAT WAS IN THE BETA BECAUSE 2X FLAWLESS ROYAL EMERALDS WILL GIVE 260% ON THEIR OWN.

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot I don't see that as a reason that the cap will be higher than 250%, though. It would give a good reason to consider something other than an emerald in a weapon.

Origami Robot

14:57

@StrixVaria NOT REALLY. EVEN IF THE CAP IS 250%, TWO EMERALDS IS THE BETTER WAY TO DO IT BECAUSE IT FREES UP ITEM AFFIXES FOR OTHER THINGS.

Well played, Infamous.

There's actually tons of cool stuff like that, easy to miss though

People don't seem to be looking as hard for stuff like that as they do in GTA (granted GTA has more of a rep for it)
