Started playing Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and one of the first things you can is to steal a ball, toss it in a well and run away while the girl who was playing with it starts to cry. You even get a trophy for doing it.

nope it's Sunbreak. it starts off with a knockdown from wyvern riding (where another monster comes in, you hop on and beat the poo poo out of the monster you're hunting) which i think last a set amount of time, but i was able to get 2 more stuns after it.

i don't even have Slugger gems on, it would be even crazier with those

shield charge is nuts cause it costs no stamina, has a bunch of blocking frames, is spammable, and you can change direction on a dime. lance is winning once again

FF14:

I did my first dungeon as a healer by taking a bunch of NPCs through Sastasha, it turned out to be incredibly easy. Apart from a few spots I only had to drop one heal per fight. I thought this was meant to be when Conjurer gets fun :argh:

Healing only gets interesting and challenging in high end content, extremes or savage, etc. Well, it can get "interesting" if your team is bad enough to eat a bunch of avoidable damage, but the actual dynamics of FF14 healer gameplay don't really shine until you hit the genuinely difficult stuff. The things that make resource management and juggling between damage and healing challenging simply cannot be put in the lower end stuff or a lot of the average players would turn it into a complete disaster. Dungeons and such are designed to pretty much be runnable with a team of people all suffering concussions.

monster hunters owns because its one game where spearlike melee weapons are clearly as superior as they logically are compared to shorter dumber weapons, and even the normally short weapons get the spear elongation treatment!

I boot up most games once to see if they work then don't touch them again for 6+ months so I'm contributing to all these stats.

agreed. mmo endgame types often whine about the average skill level or the low difficulty of the mandatory/large public pieces of content but it's better this way. i think the fact that, at least ime, duty finder tends to succeed at the content in it shows that this method works even if people aren't purple parsing a 24 player raid or some nonsense.
