I don’t get it. The game has been around for 7 years, and people still main Scorpion?
Just got back after like 5 years break, hoping it would change lol. I thought by now most players would get sick of him and want to try something new, but nah. Welcome to Scorpion League Season 35 lol
Playing as a New Camper. I assume it has something to do with refusing to pay Drake to enter the Old Mine and killing him instead.
After that I talked to Ian no problem, and gave him the cog. But after talking to the gang by the waterfall, Diego tries to take me to Ian to call in the favour, but as soon as we approach him, everyone starts attacking me.
Is there a way to fix this without sleeping for 24 hours? I’m trying to get the Insomniac achievement.
I think in the original I was able to jump from the Dam to the rice field without dying after learning acrobatics, which is no longer the case, at least early game.
I love the new camp aesthetics and layout, but man, what a detour you need to take every time you head out.
I sold Baal Isidro’s weed and completely forgot that there was a quest to give that money to Lares. I’m trying to join the New Camp in my current playthrough. I’ve spent pretty much all of it, and not sure if I need to get that money back before I can join the New Camp. 400 is a lot early game.
I realized after my second playthrough of the Remake that I find it much more relaxing to just run between camps doing all the side quests, talking to NPCs, smoking a hookah with homies in the swamp camp, but once I reach the Sleeper’s Temple, no matter how well designed it is, I just find the game becomes a tad stressful and less enjoyable.
I remember having the same feeling while playing Gothic 2. I loved the town of Khorinis, I knew every nook and cranny. I loved the music, the vibe, becoming a citizen, getting a job etc. Same with the pirate camp in NoTR - such a relaxing atmosphere and music. But once you get on that ship and go to the island, it gets too dark and stressful for me lol.
I realize, it’s kinda in the name - it’s supposed to be dark and gloomy, but yeah, just digging the early game vibe much better.
>!not a single soul is alive in the Old Camp!<
I don’t get why Gorn is so merciless and bloodthirsty while re-capturing Free Mine. Not only he needlessly kills poor diggers, but he goes after them and finishes the job lol.
In my current playthrough, there was one hiding on the upper platform, and Gorn was relentless and climbed two ladders just to get the poor sucker and brutally murder this guy who had nothing but a pickaxe to defend himself.
I know it’s his hut, but it’s actually hard to catch him outside, and I just want to trade lol.
Don’t remember him getting mad in the original. In Gothic 2, it was definitely possible to walk into NPC’s huts to talk to them.
First time ever, the portal didn’t spawn, lol
I don’t know how I managed to put 5.5k hours into D2R alone, and never tried out the Classic mode.
It really makes you plan your build differently, when there are no runes, no charms and extremely limited stash space.
I ended up finding pretty much the best uniques/sets - Bonesnap, GToe, 3 Sigon pieces, 30 Nagel, 30 MF Chancies.
The best thing about this playthrough is that I had no idea that Barb is OP in classic. His WW apparently hits on every frame and doesn’t use IAS, so you can basically find the slowest highest dmg weapon and one-shot everything on p8 in NM.
Hell was a bit tougher as expected, but I still managed to clear Act 1 on p5, Act2-3 on p3, and Act 4 on p1. All this with the freaking Bonesnap (which luckily I found early enough on Normal). If only you could upgrade it in Classic!
Anyway, whoever wants to try a somewhat “fresh” and different D2 experience, highly recommend Classic mode!
I’m 3 months into this new job as a contractor at a tech company, and facing a bully in the role of a scrum master.
The thing is he’s mean to everybody, but occasionally likes picking on me. For a while I was just laughing it off, but every now and then he gets under my skin. All attempts to establish any friendly or professional communication with him have failed.
I’m not the only one to notice that he’s being a dick, but most people prefer to ignore him or play along it seems.
Manager seems to be taking a back seat, and never intervenes. He’s a rather quiet guy.
I wonder if it’s worth keeping a log and having a talk with my manager about it at some point. I feel that as a contractor I’m easily replaceable and they hire new people every other week. I also don’t have access to their corporate resources like HR, etc.
I happened to buy my bass in Montreal, so it’s quite a long ride for a setup.
Was wondering if anyone could recommend a luthier/guitar tech who could do a setup for my bass in Ottawa.
Btw, not sure if there’s a sub dedicated to Ottawa musicians, I don’t know if it’s a good place to post this.
The voice actor actually says “memontum”, I wonder if it was voiced by AI, because how would a real human not question this obvious typo and say it as it’s written?
Have you encountered any other similar typos/errors in dialogues? I think I once saw a Templar at the swamp camp entrance saying something off-script, while the subtitles say he used to be a “Malin” (whatever it means lol).
Got a Vex also 3 runs later. Definitely put those shards to good use.
Thinking which build to pick for my second playthrough, and was wondering if I could go all in on dexterity/bow/crossbow skills and ignore melee completely, or does it get weaker later in the game?
Similar to “enable TZ” option. Seriously, unless they change their drops, I could care less about them spawning, and if anything, they only slow me down and make TZ farming a pain in the ass.
Take Stony Tomb for example. The area is so small, that you’re practically guaranteed to get a herald spawn in level 2 area. For me it usually spawns right around Creeping Feature. If I don’t kill CF first, now I need to deal with the stupid herald. Since I’m playing offline, I‘m used to farming on p8, so if a herald spawns on P8, he will be like an Uber boss, so I’m forced to switch back to p1, and then back to p8 or just leave the area and forfeit any potential loot.
Really frustrating experience. Rant over.
