Is the Secrets of the Obscure expansion for GW2 any good? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I think it's rather good if you like GW2:

If you like exploring and don't have the Skyscale: it has a cheaper and faster way of getting it compared to from War Eternal (Dragonfall).
If you like the GW2 story: it's a standalone story that continues after the Dragon Saga and doesn't require you to have finished it beforehand, and the first map is almost entirely made of thought experiments of unexplored lore and previous story bits.
If you like buildcrafting: you get access to Weaponmaster training, which allows you to unify the weapon pool on each class (so any Mesmer can use Shield or mainhand Dagger, regardless of specializations).
If you like grinding or legendaries and don't raid: there's an upcoming legendary armor set that can technically be earned by farming rifts.

I don't know what specifically you found mid about EoD, but I'd say if you're not too excited about what I showed up there, then you can wait for a sale.

California voters are fucking awful in c/[email protected]

Every once in a while, there are murmurings of California secession if Trump wins, if ACB is rammed into the SCOTUS (which she was), and so on. It's hard to imagine that, even if this happened, anything will actually change: CA would still be a liberal hellhole, just a smaller one that doesn't involve 49 other states.
