    Grim Dawn

    My biggest issue is I didn't like going back from D3 to the PoE/D2 style. This has been great though, 74 hours in the last 3-4 weeks. Don't have a max level character (currently 71, max is 100, have a couple toons in their teens/20s that I've spent maybe an hour or two each on), haven't...

    Grim Dawn

    So... to farm gear that Grim Wiki doesn't say is a blueprint from some faction... just run around and blow up rares/bosses/the 3 skeleton key dungeons? The game natually slant it towards gear for my class with a mix of the rest for some flavor?

    Grim Dawn

    New zones I'd expect are available at every difficulty. We only did elite because we literally just beat it earlier this week and that's where our highest characters are at progression-wise.

    We dove into the new content for a couple hours last night on Epic w/ our level ~63 toons. I'm already kinda sick of plants and poison, lol.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    I like some of the tweaks to the formula. Some bad guys track me and show up, so it's not just a bunch of set pieces for me to stealth around / dive into. Was fighting an orc and he adapted mid-fight to what I was doing (think I was stunning or vaulting a lot). A time limit to get revenge on...
