I should probably go to bed at this point. I typed up a short story of my arduous attempts at defending an outpost in the STALKER modpack GAMMA and how my game crashed when I turned in the quest. Sent off that post and woe-is-me, the entire text didn’t get submitted and I didn’t have it saved in copy-paste. It’s just so ironically fitting.
So ya, what’s something you’d like to ramble a bit about?
I finally found a way to end my inability to stop playing WoW after 18+ years of it. I didn’t consider myself “addicted” - as I am able to maintain career & family, it was more about it meant I didn’t play any other game. I ended the issue by requesting a “private information removal” - which hard-deletes every aspect of your entire battle.net account. Gone. 13,000 hours and it feels great. I also don’t feel like I “lost” anything. When you see a 2 hour movie, but then you leave the theatre when it’s over - do you regret spending 2 hours? No, you don’t.
AAAAnd the very next act I took was to make a new Battle.net account to play Diablo4. The wheel of time, and all.
In other thoughts, I don’t expect D4 to be forever, and I look forward to smaller/indie games on Steam. Looks like I need to try Dwarf Fortress, RimWorld, and others.
