IndiraLightfoot Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Nah, like LadyCrimson said in that other thread, it just takes a full evening in total, and sometimes my brain just needs this kind of click fest collecting games. In many ways, D3 and Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, which I've played a lot this autumn, are rather similar. The main difference is that AC:O is a RPG lite game and overall a wonderful environment explorer game, but all the fighting is harder, at least to me, since I simply have to use my controller, while in D3, I just keep grinding away, and the way I've built my Wizard, it's pretty much no real skill involved. I can really see why that sounds horrific to lots of people, but playing D3 is like binge-watching a decent series on Netflix. Afterwards, you aren't really sure that it was worth it, but while your doing it, the rumination value is excellent. Just chilling and escaping your everyday chores. Perhaps we should start watching TV with a clicker in one hand and pretend we play D3? *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marelooke Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) One of those days where I'm quite happy without the full virtual reality experience. Those wastes and boiling pits are sulfur. Anyone remember from chemistry class what boiling sulfur smells like? Yeah, the rotten egg stench would probably have made my nostrils bleed! a) Go here (Hverir, Iceland): b) Cry a whole lot and start rethinking the life decisions which led up to the point of smelling that with dozens other tourists I was here recently (Wai-o-tapu, NZ): And honestly, the smell wasn't all that bad. It didn't even cling to the clothes we were wearing. So I guess not all of those areas were created equally, or we got lucky with the weather, or, I guess, I don't mind sulphur all that much Edited January 27, 2019 by marelooke 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mud was quite extraordinary in that account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyCrimson Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Well, I'm still plugging away at D3. With a few days to spare, I finally got that Cow pet from the Darkening of Tristram event. It was very cute, and I used it for a day or so, but then, for the second time ever (Yes, I am that unlucky), I came across a pet-carrying goblin, and I managed to beat it down barely at Torment II difficulty, and the pet I got is now my favourite: The Bumble. For the longest time my favorite remained the reddish fugly half-formed golem thingie pet which came with the ultimate/necro edition. I just liked the way it was animated when it ran around picking up gold, it was too funny. The two cows and the floating skulls are the only others I've liked much. Haven't gotten the Bumble yet - probably missing 4 or 5 pets (on non-seasonal chr). but playing D3 is like binge-watching a decent series on Netflix. lol - that's a pretty apt description of the current version of D3. 1 “Things are as they are.

LadyCrimson Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) (video stills, extra fuzzy)Me: routinely/very frequently do 1-3billion critsMages: routinely do 300-500millionSkellies: routinely do 100-200millionSo far: That plus gaining another 50 or so Paragon levels = still not quite enough to beat GR70 in time-limit (req. to have chance of Primals to drop). Some of it's rng on the dungeon and enemy types that spawns but I keep missing by 30, 60 seconds...bah. Edit: at least I'm close. Maybe another 50 P-lvls...

LadyCrimson Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) Jeez, that's some number bloat I know, right? It's ridiculous/funny. With 13+ difficulties and greater rifts going past that, not surprising I suppose. ...at least you can turn the numbers off. I only run them when I get curious about numerical "progress."

LadyCrimson Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) Wow, I haven't played in such a long time I didn't even recognize that character screen, when was that changed? I've been playing on PS4 this round (last time I played PC version was at original release, didn't feel like reinstalling it/blizzard service) so the UI is different for the controller. Most things are (so I read) pretty much the same otherwise between versions (minor update differences here and there at times).
