I didn't think to numlock the other 2 abilities on the rotation for some odd reason. Thought they were passives.

And then I numlocked them, and just beat things up. Really liking the wizard, may play one next season but I think I'm gonna detour into a DH first.

I can't do the numlock trick without additional software (AHK), so I just get good at spamming buttons.

One bad thing about the numlock trick is that the character starts spamming "I can't do that yet" etc., I always have to disable character voice when I use the numlock trick xD

Since PUBG wouldn't start I had to do some more detective work.

The lobby in that game apparently has an issue with a number of processor cores > 1
So if I'm quick enough starting and go to set the game to use just one core in task manager I can get to the lobby with 100% success rate, then I turn all the cores back on and when I die and exit back to lobby I have to change to 1 core again or crash to desktop.

This is after having to update bios to stop the constant microstutter. The new bios also causes booting issues which are presumably fixed in newer versions of windows 10. This and a couple other games like I think witcher 3 also require disabling those powersaving features that lower the clocks when computer is idle. But I assume that's on microsoft's creator update being a work of international cyberterrorism.

But why they haven't used the data from their crash reports to fucking fix their lobby so that people can get in to their game is beyond me.

All in all it's every bit as entertaining as it is sad which is I'm writing these reports.

Oh my, that's a thing I didn't think of when I was running the explosive blast build. Or we it's called.

Also try n rely on past success to keep you calm for the aggravating times you're living right now.
It'll all be good. No need to stress out too much.

So I went and did a personal training weekend, shit is intense, it wasn't eye opening for me but it changed some people's life. Recommend it if you need to face your devils, deal with some past stuff, get a better grip of what you want. Sometimes it's a bit cheesy, but those were the times people realized stuff the most.

Overall it was a good experience and it was worth it for me.

I find it surprising we even have to bother with the numlock trick and can't just set spells to auto-cast actually.

If Blizz ever added autocast in D3 they would get endless shit from people complaining that they're panderning to causals or sth equally asinine because apparently having to press buttons makes you a skilled player or w.e

I feel like a lot of players who think they're "really into D3" already use the numlock trick or have a workaround, making it a pretty silly argument.

I do agree it'd totally happen, though. They'd complain. :X

I didn't know about it until Atreides told me, and now I feel pretty dumb for not having done it before. In my defense it's not really obvious..

bought a new gun while i was in switzerland, sig p210s are probably the most accurate service pistols ever made, and it shows when shooting at 50 metres

Since when did Blizzard not try to pander to casuals? I'm sure that's where all the money comes from.

e. also figured out one the pubg sound issues: the sound of a bullet passing by or hitting something close you seems to only be played in either left or right channel. Only movement and the gunshot itself are two-dimensional sounds.

Considering the “casual” translates to the majority of the population: Blizzard has always made accessible games that will run on a toaster.

I mean, I can farm T13s with only the mouse as a result of this thing, and never mis-time my abilities. You should take it for a spin when you next play!

I cheer on emulation from a preservation standpoint. But emulating the switch is a weird sell since most of the third party games come out on other platforms, like PC. Puyo Puyo Tetris is the fucking bomb.

D3 sounds like a game I would absolutely hate. I assume it's like D2 with less physical pain.

If they made a game like D2 but forced the player to go fast and make a lot of choices it would be really cool. That kind of bothered me actually since lorewise weren't the bad guys about to do all this nasty stuff and then you'd spend time grinding and exploring and just killing endless mobs for loot.
I've always assumed it was rushed out and they didn't have the quests and lore to put in there so they made finding the ways to progress the game random and filled every place with mobs just to stretch out the gametime.
Perhaps I lack appreciation for the value of absolute freedom of ARPG's and open world games. Maybe I (sub)consciously draw parallels to life where you can theoretically go anywhere and do anything but all inherent meaning is missing so you might as well not and instead go on a tangent on the internet all by yourself for no reason adding no value to anyone's life.

That is why PUBG is a masterpiece, it's the antithesis of postmodernism. Brendan Greene is the neo-Messiah of the digital age. All the shit is there to mask the truth from those who are not seeking and unworthy.

e. you can get d3 + exp for 20€? maybe I'll give it a try myself
