Diablo II - Resurrected

At least there is a resale market for the hardware or your restored custom cars.

What are you gonna do with all your digitally "leased" games that exist on services like Battle.net if things get tight and you need a little cash injection?

Its always been an amusing exercise us gamers use to justify buying shit we only use for a handful of hours and never think about again (in the case of bad games)

I guess some people it gets expensive all the travleing to conventions and stuff. My personal hobbies are not cheap, gunsmithing/owning a lathe/mill, hunting all across north America, guitars and flying giant scale R/C planes up to 42% scale with 200cc gas engines. Gaming is cheap.

Guns in general is an expensive hobby as well.

The most expensive hobby of all for some men are women.

I was hearing the new DLC breaks away from "classic" D2R and potentially opens the window to do more stuff with it. D2R and Warlock versions are separate allowing them to keep the classic experience for those that want it while allowing the warlock version to be expanded/modified.

this is true, but it's actually already been like that; classic vs lod... now you can choose classic, lod, or warlock for game mode... can also upgrade lod characters to warlock (which you could do classic --> lod)

1969 Camaro. Right now I’m stripping it. It belonged to my dad. He has another he restored that’s a 69 Z28 to be as close to original as he can.

I’m thinking about tub kitting mine and putting a crate LS1 in mine. Upgrading the steering, brakes, etc. $$$$$

I have the original 350 block.

My old man spent a load on restoring an old Lincoln Zephyr. He's dead, it never got finished. Those restoration companies will keep accepting checks while making minimal progress while coming up with new excuses all the time. Similar to Warhammer commission ppl that took 7 months to do something I could crush in a few weeks after boning up. Which brings me to a point I wanna make.

The only success I ever saw was a do it yourself guy who bought an actual lift and learned to do it all himself. Some old green convertible, the name of which escapes me.

If you finish the job on something cool enough you can get special antique license plates, and usually get to drive it in some parade for some group that will pay you a bit to make back some on the immense cost + get some of the (I supposed desired) attention.

Justifying the cost of doing something you love is just a bad idea though. You decide if you're happy or not after the investment. Like for me, trashing everything this current woke zombie-Blizzard squeezes out of its corporate slop ass cheeks is worth far more than what I could be making with some side hustle.
