Diablo 1.0, I’m Ready

 

It runs totally fine too.  I forgot a few things though, like how doors will be stuck open if a demon dies in front of it, and how you have to save constantly because it doesn’t auto save progress.  Man, save points or manually saving is so late 80’s to early 90’s isn’t it!

 

The butcher still made my heart race like crazy though.

The matchmaking in Overwatch is totally garbage

Seriously.  I’m on a 7 game LOSING streak today.  I got 3 gold medals with this on one of the losses, that’s how terrible my teams have been.

 

 

I even played with a guy who lost 2 with me, then HE got swapped to another team and won 3 in a row before it reshuffled.  Then I went on to lose 4 more.  Then I joined with my husband where we lost even more.  Like at least 20 losses with not a single win.

 

It’s not even close games either.  It’s like being camped in spawn, never getting anywhere near the point, moving the payload maybe an inch.  No cards for your team at all and absolutely decimated over and over.  Very bizarre today.

 

I am pretty sure this game does not let you see the other teams MMR because you’d find yourself at 1000 playing against someone at 3000 or something.  Like a full team of under 500 against a 3000.

WTB Healer but Not any More

I was talking with Silver today and I commented that it was weird how the game has changed over the years.  During Cata, I healed everything.  I did Dragon Soul on my paladin, shaman, and priest, because so many people wanted a good healer.  I healed arena and bgs, rbgs, dungeons.  I did challenge modes in MoP, heroic progression as a healer in Cata and MoP.  Could hardly log in without being asked to do something.  It was an actual problem, believe it or not.

Now, none of that is a thing.  After Post Mortem died, I went to Time Lords, which died.  Then I went to Erratic which died, then to Drop a Feast which died, and now I’ve moved mostly off Whisperwind to play on Sargeras on my fire/frost mage in the guild Second Attempt.

It’s 9pm on a Monday and all but there were 4 people online.  No one is in the discord.  I even sat in it one day to play Overwatch hoping to play with some new people but nope.  It’s just… weird.

Holy Paladin

I haven’t played my holy paladin since WoD, which I can tell because I still have thousands of Broken Bones in my bank, and the fun scrolls from Ashran.  Man I had fun in Ashran.  Anyway wow.  I ran into a holy paladin during some of my fire mage dungeon runs and their spells were finally massively upgraded.  Before you could barely tell you were getting healed because paladins spells looked like almost nothing, unless you were casting Light of Dawn.  Retribution had some cool effects but holy was rather blah.

But NOW.  Wow.  I commented at our holy paladin in a group that their spells looked incredible.  I played mine a bit this week for the Chemical Co dungeon and dang.  Holy light now opens a book when casting and the flashes are beautiful.  Everything looks really cool.  I may level  up this character and now I’m regretting the boost I did on my shaman.  Oh well, I can do it through dungeons I suppose!

Look at my pig, my pig is AMAZING

Gift from Mistwidget, my piggie and I prance ALL over the epic bgs these days!

 

 

Speaking of all over, there was a mage tavern crawl event recently which was pretty neat.  You got ported to different taverns and I had fun guessing what continent or zone I was in without looking at the map or looking outside of the door.  I was right most of the time!  There was food and drink around and even little costume things. My favorite was the “Mechs on the Beach” drink.
