  • Same for me, started playing D2 at launch (No console sir wasn’t able to play D1). PvE only, PvP when cheese was possible.

    Loved the game, the story, the great gameplay and shoot/power feeling.

    Stayed in for years but, in indsight I played more and more because I felt I needed to instead of wanted to.

    They started vaulting content with shitty excuses, made the game very hard for new players (best way to kill it long term), added monetisation and FOMO left and right.

    FOMO finally burned me out before lightfall. Didn’t preco and that was the smart thing to do. This extension was simply scandalous: rushed, very poorly written, bad characters (and there wasn’t that much of them). It was hastly put together to be able to push final shape and it felt. Quite there and then.

    On one hand I’m happy I stopped giving money to a Company that clearly didn’t give a fuck to both its players and employees.

    On another hand it’s a shame because the game was good, art direction incredible, story - even if sometime badly narrated and complicated- was deep and great.

    Edit: ah gambit was great, especially with a full team.




  • I had a funny moment when I left with half of the map’s enemies on my ass and a rolling lava bolder trying to bring down a gate I had magically locked.

    Then, as I expected, I triggered the huge boss fight… With the demon you met in the house of char, pretty pissed, on top of that.

    It was a true mess, the enemies outside of the boss arena were still using their turns trying to break the locked doors. It was funny at first, but annoying loss of time in the end…

    Best fight of the game.












  • If like me you wanted the patch notes, without clicking:

    FIXES

    • Fixed a crash that could occur after the cinematic that plays when transitioning from Act II to Act III.

    • Fixed an issue preventing you from taking a Short Rest when having added and dismissed Us with a companion party member and then loaded certain savegames.

    • Fixed Us appearing at camp and near other waypoints when that didn’t make sense.

    • Fixed an issue introduced in Hotfix 21 causing reduced performance on Mac.




  • I was going to say: the office environment doesn’t suck that much, or rather it’s not aimed at people with advanced programing knowledge. Rather everyone else (which is probably the majority in the professional world).

    For people who have no or little IT knowledge it’s actually very handy.

    I’ve learned a little bit of programming during my studies (mostly R) and I’m now working in a big company.

    Power automate is so useful and nearly ALL parts of the office ecosystem is accessible to it. And it’s possible to use it with very little coding knowledge.

    It’s now my main tool of work (with excel).
