  • Diablo 2 was my first and favorite, I played the shit out of that game with my friends. We’d join up and rush each other, share equipment, meticulously plan our builds, and kill the strongest stuff we could find.

    The story was stale after the first playthrough, and yeah I killed Baal and Mephisto thousands of times, but it was so much fun. There wasn’t an auction house or an ability to buy the best equipment. Leveling up didn’t take forever, so I could build a level 80 character in a few weekends of grinding away.

    I played Diablo 3 too, but it felt like they lost the storytelling magic and focused more on monetization. Rifts were cool, but I really just felt like it was more of the same with better graphics and different characters / skill trees. It wasn’t novel enough to grind away my weekends on.

    I haven’t tried the latest, and despite having a phone, I refuse to play Immortal or whatever (if that is still around).

    I am over Blizzard games at this point … in the 90s and early 2000s they could do no wrong. Since they hitched up with Activision they completely lost the plot.

    I get focused on small things, which makes me an inefficient cleaner. Sure that drawer is going to be the most organized it has ever been, but there are bigger fish to fry.

    I just need someone following me around to ask questions like “Are you sure deep cleaning the microwave is the most effective use of your time right now?”
