So I bought Diablo III + Reaper of Souls in a compromised state because I justified how much cheaper the combo would be.
I am playing it so much. I am a lady monk and I'm just ruining fools.
I forgot how satisfying this genre is.
Reaper of Souls fixed so much. It is the Dungeon Crawler I always wanted.
I was playing a Crusader, and it's pretty cool, but I was getting frustrated with feeling like I was always just waiting for cooldowns. I'd played all the other classes except Wizard, so I started one.
Oh my god Wizards are so broken.
I started playing on the Americas (All my stuff is on the European servers because the guys I used to play with were there), so I'm starting from scratch. No gems, gold, banner unlocks, nothing, and on hard I killed Maghda in 8 seconds.
Thinking about it, given there are less than a hundred people in my office that's quite a proportion, I know there are more that I'm not thinking of right now.
Hooray for niche industries and low staff turnover, I suppose.
Abdhy office politics sadly are a thing that exists and can actually fuck up your career and thus life.
There are like, eight people I work with that are in relationships with other people in our office
Four of them are married
Unless someone is someone else's boss it isn't a problem
It can absolutely work out
The problems often come from it not working out, especially if it ends poorly or as you mentioned the boss thing (although that's a pretty terrible idea from the get go)

I played some of the trial as Barbarian and though it was fun just cleaving my way through the hordes, it didn't seem that dynamic or attention-grabbing.
I switched to the monk and am having a fantastic time. Stringing together the monk's abilities so that you teleport into the center of a mob, stun them and then do the monk's teleport attack just causes one giant mob explosion. You don't even have to click!
I do think playing the demo may have given me a huge leg up. I ended up 2-3 levels past the mark since I had to play the opening segment again with my imported monk (I was bummed they don't just let you continue the plot but whatever). I'm not looking for Dark Souls levels of challenge and I'm just having a good time, but I'm in Act 2 and I've only taken a remotely precarious amount of damage maybe 3 times in the whole game so far. No boss fight has lasted more than 20-30 seconds.
I'm sure I'll burn myself out a bit, but I'm actually pretty stoked to circle back through with another class. I'm thinking I may go Witch Doctor next.
Overall about how long is DIII+Reaper of Souls campaign? I'm sure if I feel comfortable enough I'll jump into some online but with companions and stuff I'm super content just fucking around in the single player for now.
Probably 15-20 hours, I think. The end-game Adventure Mode can absolutely be played single player, so you can do that as long as you want.
D3 is better with people, though, which is why I moved to the Americas. Hopefully I can start playing with some D&D peeps.
EDIT: I'd recommend upping the difficulty to hard at least. Bonus XP, and it's not that hard. More after that is up to you as the XP bonus isn't quite as large from hard to whatever is next.
Then there's Master and the Torment I - VI. The Torment levels are very difficult, so don't worry about running out of a challenge. Torment VI is pretty much for ultra geared parties only.
The Paragon levels are infinite as well. No cap.

Let me get some more hours in and then maybe we can join and play for some multi fun. I'd be down to get a D&D group going.
Honestly the only reason I avoid multi in games like this is because I just like to have fun. I don't usually read optimum builds or strats. I just do whatever I am enjoying most and build a character the coolest way I can think of. Since a lot of people take games like this as srs bsns, I tend to avoid as I'd rather not negatively impact anyone's game due to inexperience/lack of hardcore dedication.

eh, I am all for helping people out with he wants to make it a thing
and I am enjoying doing this myself
This is how much I know about Crusader:
(Except that I also know about their monkeygrip on big weapons.)
It's like smoking at the gas station man. Chances are you won't blow the block up, but you really want to roll those dice?
Same thing here
It was not that cold and not snowing like, thirty minutes ago, now it's coming down hard what the fuck

That is Orthrus, dummy.
And they are all hopefully coming out again next week for my birthday

Chasing after a temporary physical situation in the workplace is always a bad idea.
However, if both people really getting along and the they're both reasonably mature, then it might be an OK thing to try and make a go of it.
Borderline enough
get you some gurl
I was going to say by not over thinking it but I suspect we may have crossed that bridge already :P
Myas hugs bring all the boys to the yard
Damn right, they're better than yours
Yeah but a bunch of people have moved from days to nights and nights to days and shifted their work schedules.
It's such a common thing that I wouldn't be surprised if like 6 months or a year from now we end up on the same shift
Now that you control both ends, I would put demolition charges on it so you can collapse it in the event the enemy forces a retreat.
I like the way you think
I worked at a gas station and we smoked all the time so funny to use that metaphor
All's scorched earth in love and war.
jerks!
twitch.tv/tehsloth
you are the embodiment of ridiculousness.
Hahahah I love it.
gah feckking drafts.
Yeah but you know who that sounds like a problem for?
future msmya
And lets be honest has she ever traveled back in time with super secret stock tips for you even once?
She's probably too busy sleeping with cute guys from work to bother herself with past Mya.
I'm surprised more time travel plots aren't based on this actually.
Reminds me of the time I pulled up at some tiny petrol station out in the sticks and pulled out my phone to check a text
The crazy geriatric lady behind the counter came running out bawling like I was playing with a hand grenade
I am broke until next month, but I reinstalled D3 and have been having fun with it again.
Of course, I am one of the people who enjoyed D3 from the start, so yeah....
Good thing next month is Tuesday!
