Started playing D3 again after a year and a half just to see what 2.1 update was all about and now I'm going to get Reaper of Souls today

Damn you Diablo!

Definitely. Pretty much replaced all my 1.0 gear before reaching the halfway point of Act 1. Rares and Legendary drop earlier and better too.

I swore off D3 until I went to Blizzcon. Then I couldn't fricking wait for Reaper of Souls to come out. It's my day off, so after I take care of some things I'm rewarding myself with a whole lot of D3

It continues the storyline from what happened to Leah, right?

Maybe? my b.net tag is unsurety.

I declined a few requests yesterday because I figured they were spammers. I'm always down to play, usually at night.

heh, thanks.

I have a TON of gold... I was an auction house whore. First thing I did was max out the mystic.

I couldn't pass up the chance to transmogrify my gear. How gear looks is as important as the stats it's surprisingly very cheap, but I'm saving the expensive transmogs for end-game gear.

Yeah I love how they made gear look appealing now.

I never thought I would return to D3 so I spent all my millions before I stopped way back then. All artisans except mystic are maxed out though
Also gave away pretty much all my gear to random people then, so that's why I started a new character.

Since DMC was free on PS+ I gave it a whirl and knocked it out over the weekend. Really cool combo system. Certainly more creative in that sense than other hack and slash like God of War. Really cool graphics and art with the background stage constantly morphing and shifting. Put a hurting on my CPU lol. I don't think I've used every single button on my PS3 that quickly before.

Gamefly has a $1 for 1 month promotion so I rented Batman Arkham Origins. Let's see how bad it is.

It isn't.

Just that it's not better than the first two games of the "Arkham" series. With City, it improved on Asylum...but, with Origins, it had such a benchmark set, it didn't really do much...just status quo. So, kinda felt like the same game.

Almost seemed like the devs were nervous to mess up the formula...which is fair.



Be warned about the end boss...it'll take you a couple of tries.

Yeah this game I like. I just fought Slade and that was pretty challenging compared to the other games' bosses. Good stuff so far.

Deathstroke also gave me problems when I first had to take him on. But, he's pretty easy compared to the end-boss.

So yeah end boss I only died once. Reminded me of the Mr. Freeze fight where you can use only certain techniques once except for the corner squat takedown or whatever they call it this time around which was my bread and butter. A little tough when the distortion interferes with Detective Mode but definitely not as many punches thrown as I did vs Deathstroke. Overall yeah it's a fantstic game even though it was glitchy, the voice acting wasn't as good, story much shorter, and did I mention the glitches. So I'll clean up the loose end stories, do some challenges, and probably won't finish all the Riddler like in City or do it another day.

Even though I had rented it I ended up buying for $18 during the Gamefly sale. GF even ships you the box with the Deathstroke code after you buy it. Can't wait to fuck shit up with Slade.

Awesome. So, you had less trouble with Bane than Deathstroke?

For me, it was the other way around. Bane took a few tries to beat...

The Deathstroke was more Metal Gear Rising fighting so I was rusty I'm kind of disappointed that Bane was the last boss. I guess coming off Batman TDKR, it made sense but Joker is the main baddy. Granted you can't do super Joker again.

Well, you DO get to "fight" Joker last.

Yep. I think my favorite part of the game was taking on the hotel. That was well-done IMO.

Hopefully, the next game tries to improve stead of staying par.

Pulled the trigger on Metal Gear Legacy. Best Buy no longer carries it nor TRU, Walmart, Target, KMart and it's out of stock at Gamestop. Amazon was the only one and at $50. I suggest you get it ASAP. Contemplating if I should play it in release date order or year order by setting.
