If You Could Change ONE Thing in Tarkov, What Would it Be?
If you were allowed to change one thing about Tarkov, what would that one thing be? It’s a loaded question I know, but this has been brewing in my mind for a couple of days now. Tarkov has so many different mechanics, ideas, and concepts thrown into it that asking someone to change one of those feels unfair. Over the years, BSG has only added more and more to their game, and while those additions are usually interesting once they get the implementation right, when you look at the game from a bird’s eye view, it can feel daunting with how much content is actually in the game. And from that angle, there is an overwhelming amount of possibilities and potential to change how Tarkov plays, in one area or another. You could completely adjust how weapons function with their ergonomics and recoil. You could change the medical system. You remove features you don’t like; maybe something akin to found in raid. The possibilities are truly endless. So today, I wanted to go over a handful of features or mechanics I would change within Tarkov and go over why I would change them. And then maybe at the end of the list, pick one that might have the most potential positive impact on the game.

Godfather Death: A Warlock Character Concept
There is an old tale of a man who had so many children that he had run out of people in the town to stand as godfather for his youngest. He walked down the road, and he found God willing to stand for his child, but the man ignored the holy figure, believing that he allowed people to suffer in the name of purity, and wouldn't do anything for anyone until they were dead. Next he found the devil, but he rejected the creature's offer, knowing that though the devil would provide money and earthly wealth, he would condemn his child to an eternity of suffering afterward, and tempt him into a life of wickedness and sin.

The Ethics of Playersexuality in Video Games
Role-playing games have always been the forefront of player immersion due to the genre’s creativity, narrative storytelling, and, of course, its cast of dynamic characters. Whether they are NPCs or recruitable companions, dynamic characters help players develop an emotional attachment to the game’s world and lore, especially if they are romanceable. However, there has been some debate about the accessibility of romanceable characters and how it can dramatically affect the gameplay and immersion.

How One Magazine Changed the Game for Tarkov
When it comes to weapons and how effective they are, people usually associate certain aspects to them to figure out if they are good or not. Luckily, post the recoil changes, most weapons in the game can be effective in taking down bosses and other players alike. But what separates weapons are obviously the attachments on offer, but also the ammo and magazines that are used. Colt M4's and AK's are always going to be relevant in some regard because of how many choices for ammo there are as well as having high-capacity magazines to boot. SMGs having low recoil, high fire rates and again high-capacity mags make them a force to be reckoned with in close quarters (with maybe the exception of maybe the .45 Vector). One caliber that wasn’t spoiled for choice in this department was .308. With only having nine weapons that are not bolt-actions, only one of those has a magazine capacity higher than thirty, which is the FAL. Most other offerings are stuck with a poultry twenty round capacity. Well, they were, until recently. With the addition of the SIG Spear, alongside it came two additional magazines into the game. Another 20-round mag, and a bigger twenty-five round mag. Five rounds doesn’t sound like a huge deal, when we have 50, 75, and 100 round drum mags already in the game. Who cares? I’ll tell you: three of the most powerful, popular and sought-after weapons in the game. So, let’s talk about these weapons and how one magazine changed the game for the .308 caliber in Tarkov.

Path of Exile Ranger Builds
Path of Exile is an action RPG that focuses on dungeon raids and clearing, much like Diablo. As such, it has features like its forebearer. One of these is the class system where players choose a class based on the attribute(s) they want to focus on. There are three “Pure” character classes and four “Hybrid” character classes. The Pure character classes have one focus attribute: Dexterity (Ranger), Strength (Marauder), and Intelligence (Witch). Meanwhile, Hybrid classes have two or three focus attributes: Strength and Dexterity (Duelist), Strength and Intelligence (Templar), Dexterity and Intelligence (Shadow), and lastly Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence (Scion). In this article, we will focus on the Ranger class and suggest some ideal builds.

You Won't Be Able to Select the Map You Scav On, Eventually
Right now, player scavs are more powerful and potentially lucrative than ever before. As more items, maps, bosses and ways of earning rubles in-raid have been added into the game, so to have player scavs. In addition, getting your scav karma up to a maximum of 6, combined with buffs from the intelligence center, means you could be scaving into a raid every 5-7 minutes. Just having Streets exist in the game means there are literally millions of rubles just laying around waiting to be looted by players. And if you know where to look, with a bit luck, you could walk out of Streets a very rich breeki boy. And while people aren’t upset with scavs being an effective way of making money, many have made their disdain heard about the sheer number of p-scavs on maps like Streets. They can spawn in as early as 6 or 7 minutes into a raid, which as a PMC is not something you want to see. If I’m going to die, let it be from another PMC who outplayed me, instead of a humble scav who caught me with my hand in my pants reloading or healing. It kind of makes every other map obsolete. One potential mechanic that was talked about in the most recent TarkovTV podcast was the removal of allowing player scavs to choose which map they would like to load into. Now initially, that seems like a rather drastic and scary change; players all have their own habits when it comes to running their scav. What maps they like to loot, what their goals are in that particular moment in time, and removing the ability to pick where we go is certainly not something to ignore. If this change does get added at some point, it’s going to ultimately shake up how players engage with their scav to such a degree where previously never scaved on maps will be getting lots of love, one way or another. It’s definitely one of the more divisive adjustments that were talked about, so let’s break this down and see whether or not it’s a positive or negative change in general.

BG3 Bhaal-Barian. Content Warning.
So, I haven't written in a pretty long while, I have been dicking around on Baldur's Gate III for a bit with different classes/races. Trying some stuff out while having fun. My latest jabs have been with Clerics as my "Tav". I tried out a Cleric of Mystra with the intent of a Gale romance and a Cleric of Selune with a Shadowheart romance. I was trying to play a ranger for a bit without an intended romance (possibly Halsin, I tried one before and it had some funny moments, particularly with the Drow siblings in Sharess's Caress - highly recommended, Halsin is actually a cool and easy rom-com). The problem is that Rangers and Druids kind of suck. I might try it as a Oath of Ancients Pally though.
