  • Bard’s Tale 3: Latest Party with Three Geomancers

    With Diablo 4 being two months away and in trying to save my money while not going completely insane from boredom, I decided to boot up the old Bard’s Tale 3. Last time I checked though, I seem to recall being able to play it on a Mac. This time, it won’t run and says…

  • Diablo 4 Dev Q&A Reveal Review

    On my birthday, there was a Discord Dev Q&A session where they went into a little more depth about the upcoming changes/features, decisions and a few surprising future pieces. Because of the new information, I felt some of it was worth writing down and reflecting upon.

  • Diablo 30th Anniversary Spotlight Review

    Yesterday, Blizzard livestreamed their Diablo 30th Anniversary Spotlight where they showed updates to three of their major games in Diablo 2: Resurrected, Diablo:Immortal and Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred. Diablo 2 probably received the biggest noteworthy thing where they released a new DLC that included some end game components, QoL updates and a new class:…

  • Diablo 4: Season 12 PTR Announced

    Today, they announced the upcoming Season 12 PTR (patch 2.6.0) from Feb 3rd – Feb 10th. It’s intended to be a small, focused season around the theme of Diablo 3’s killing streak feature, except with some expanded parts. I will admit that I was not thrilled at patch notes mostly because it looks like another…

  • Diablo 4: Season 11 Casual Play

    As I managed to accomplish the bulk of my goals for Season 11, I’m only logging in when I have the energy. I did get a chance to play on Friday night and a bit on Saturday with some generous luck from the RNG deities. So I wanted to talk about the last leg of…

  • Diablo 4: Season 11 Tower Released and Other Musings

    So the beta version of the Tower has been released today along with a minor patch of a few key changes. At this stage, the Tower offers nothing beyond leaderboards and there might even be some bugs. That said, I don’t see it truly lighting the fire in terms of excitement but I figured I’d…

  • Diablo 4: Where Classes Stand for Me

    I ended up playing a few more rounds of Diablo 4 Season 11 since the goblin event last for another day or two more. During that time, I created a new Rogue using Dance of Knives with Poison Trap and reworked my Necromancer as well as finish up my Hydra Sorcerer and leveled the glyphs…

  • Diablo 4: Season 11 Finishing Up and Final Thoughts

    I think I’m done for Season 11 as my last character, a Pulverize Druid, simply got to the point where I became bored. Beyond leveling glyphs and finding better gear, the build cannot compete with my Auradin. In fact, no build this season comes close to what a Paladin can do at the moment. I’m…

  • Diablo 4: Season 11 Goblin Event and Current Evaluation

    I’m continuing to play the current season. So far I’ve tried the Sorcerer with Hydra, a Paladin starting with hammers and moving into Auras, a Golem Necromancer, another Evade Spiritborn and currently a Whirlwind/Earthquake Barbarian. I’m somewhat tempted to try a Pulverize Druid and maybe even a Rogue. But having done a few builds, I…

  • Diablo 4: Season 11 Current Thoughts

    So I decided to get myself an early Christmas present this year as I did not anticipate the dropping of the pre-order for the Diablo 4 expansion set to release next year around late April. This time around, I only bought the standard edition because I already felt like I was being a sucker but…
