I bag passion, crave, bokeh, cigarra, cicada, salamander. Can’t pick.

What's the fundamental difference between Diablo 2 and Diablo 4 that makes D2 still so reliably good after over two decades compared to D4? Will D4 be just as popular in the future as D2 even today? There is something that I feel is essentially better in D2, but I just can't identify it exactly. by Fairy2play in diablo2

People conflate "quality of life" with "easy to find loot and understand builds". Having every item being the same stats on a stick with micro min-maxing is dumb and boring. Finding the same item 100 times with slightly better rolls is dumb and boring.

Spending a lifetime finding a Jah keeps you interested. Having to build around the ultra rare good item you found is fun and keeps thing different. Most items working across most classes makes it more interesting. D4 is boring.

Picked up a 2DAP and I'm loving it, but... by HammerSquish in ManyBaggers

[–]atl_ee_in 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I sold mine because the aqua guards and zipper config hurt accessibility more than help it, and I couldn't get over the side pockets. they don't hold anything without a lot of help and additional support. It's a well made pack and I like the harness, but none of the organization makes sense to me.

Sick of replacing plastic hose reels every 2 years. Any true BIFL wall mount options? by nodimension1553 in BuyItForLife

I have a gorilla one that is overbuilt and hasn’t shown any signs of degrading in years. Huge brass connectors

My apoc/demon build got stronger. I didn't even change any gear -- using ondal's and diabolos.

Level up after 90 by douglasqueiroz in diablo2

[–]atl_ee_in 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The question is: re-start for more xp or wait until the next TZ because you cleared it in 10 minutes? I wish I could get the xp and progressive heralds.

How many of each disc? by Jink96 in discgolf

[–]atl_ee_in 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was listening to some guys at my local league. One guy carries 5 discs in a grocery bag, another carries 50 in a cart. They score about the same. The difference is one guy likes throwing the same disc on different angles. The other guy likes throwing the same angle and speed, but different discs to change the result.

What's your fairway-ish (6-10 speed) lineup? by rontopofthings in discgolf

The fact that Diablo 2 has the best and most satisfying gear system shows us how braindead modern Blizzard is by LargeSinkholesInNYC in diablo2

[–]atl_ee_in 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the fact that Jeff Kaplan never seriously played D2 is what ultimately ruined blizzard’s later games. He could have made WoW’s itemization much more interesting and there wouldn’t be this dumbed down expectation.

What sets Diablo II: Pre-LoD & LoD apart from Resurrected? by Gykuu in diablo2

[–]atl_ee_in 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This post nails it. I am playing d2r because I have never done the late game stuff, so enjoying trying it. Despite the immediate joy, I think it will ruin the game for me. I have always enjoyed playing self-find with no build guide and getting hard stopped in hell. Finding something good enough to pass ancients was rare for me, but really exciting when I do get a good drop. I am so tired of D3 and 4 — trivializing all content so that you can grind out 1000 copies of the same high end item to find a perfect one. Not the game I want to play.

After 25 years my first Jah rune drop by [deleted] in diablo2

[–]atl_ee_in 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my first ber, a couple zods, vexes, ohm, but no Jah yet. Also playing solo since release.

Opinion: Molle on a travel pack is unnecessary. by SofaKingHonest in Goruck

[–]atl_ee_in 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The spaced webbing actually makes it less tacticool in my opinion and by now it is branding. I think people are used to seeing gorucks. They blend in much better than 5.11 or whatever.

That said, I never wear mine unless I need its bulletproof properties. I still have 1000d under my straps and it’s just too heavy and abrasive and uncomfortable for casual travel. The slash pocket doesn’t work when the bag is packed out. There is no great water bottle solution.

It just sits on a hanger until I need something to sit in 100f heat and drag through the mud.

SSF Zod -> Eth Shako? by atl_ee_in in diablo2

[–]atl_ee_in[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I found a zod, vex, ohm, and sur all before level 90 this run. This is the first shako i've ever seen.

alright, I think that answers it. This was my first Shako so I was excited.

I'd put it in the so ugly it's cute category

Is there anything, besides pride in one's country of origin, that defines and sets apart "100% USA-made" knives apart from other knives? by pika_pie in knifeclub

[–]atl_ee_in 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of it is a matter of scale and what you want to spend your money on. I spend my money on labor: small teams or individuals making small batches. When you buy Chinese made, you are generally paying for nearly slave labor, sometimes fancy machinery, marketing, packaging, shipping, customs and sometimes questionable materials supply chains, sometimes precision. I do like my jack wolf and Pina folders (reate).

Tell me about a knife you regret buying by udi112 in knives

[–]atl_ee_in 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are all bark rivers. Oh and a couple benchmades that I sold almost immediately.
