I haven't played Diablo4 but isn't Diablo much, much more challenging than grinding mobs down as a war/rog/shm?

I've been saying it for years. They need to erase 7/8/9 ASAP. Star Wars fans simply can't become interested in anything after episode 6 beyond using it as a popcorn flick. That being said, the team that produced Mando Season 3 is incapable of shepherding the Star Wars franchise into a better...

I didn't play THJ so forgive my ignorance, but why were those your options? It sounds like THJ is just a power fantasy where you can do whatever and still win. Why couldn't you just venture into random zones for your level and kill everything? That's how I leveled a new group on live a month...

For those that didn't see Sicario

That's interesting. I don't know how common it is but in my small city you don't need a permit to cut down a tree on your own property.

If I saw that video a few years ago I wouldn't think it was fake (Like, paid actors) or CGI. Even now the biggest problem is oddly the voice which has the 2026 era AI synthesized voice, which has a pretty huge industry trying to improve while having a bajillion hours of highly labeled data to...
