Bungie just dropped another lawsuit on the makers of cheat software. Among the Predicate Acts we have wire fraud, criminal copyright infringement, money laundering, RICO, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and civil conspiracy.
I don't care what game(s) you play, cheating is just dogshit behavior.

I've got an idea for a new game. It's called Lance Corporal.
The main plot is getting drunk. Side quests include:
- Escaping Mexican police in Tijuana
- Finding missing weapons
- Winning games of gay chicken
- Grand theft auto/DUI
…and many more.
Diablo 4 review now that I have more time in the game.
First, this is a great game, but a time sink as I posted earlier. It, like Diablo 3, becomes repetitive as you grind and grind and grind, but the end game has always been about pushing yourself through increasingly harder enemies. If that isn't your thing, you'll still enjoy the game, but eventually move on.
Season 1...I think the biggest difference between D4 and D3 is how long it takes to level up. You grind forever it seems and you're only to a level 55 or so and you need a 65-70 to go for the highest world tier and push the end game content. I also miss D3's armor sets and how each season saw changes to them and nudge you to play different builds. D3's seasons were free, but you drop about 10 dollars to play a season in D4. It will take a lot of new content for me to pay for season 2.
Overall, is the game worth it? Yup. Replayability will depend on your love of the grind and pushing harder enemies and different builds. Even if you only complete the quest and grind a bit afterwards before moving to a new game, you get your money's worth.

I want to caveat one thing, and that's the time it takes. It takes time because you largely do it solo. Take a day or two off from grinding with the boys, you'll find yourself 10 levels behind. The only thing this game truly lacks at the moment, is a party system.
Just an FYI if you didn't know, you can split run Side Dungeons in a party in the same zone and get the points. Not having a party is killing the game for me. And even you don't respond to me. Lol.
This weekend I crossed the 5,000 hour mark in Destiny 2. That's 208 full days of gametime. With 44.3 million players over time (active or not), I'm in the top 7% of players.
The guy with the most amount of time is a console player at 30,240 hours, the PC player with the most hours ranks 4th at 21,005. I have rookie numbers.
What is grass?

I’m curious what my numbers would be for like MLB the show. I played that GTAV and Ghost Recon Wildlands an absurd amount.
I took a player in MLB the Show 16 to 2030. Broke the HR record and the hits record. I did almost every at bat for 14 seasons. I don’t even want to know how many hours I played that while I was working nights.
Not knowing your game/ situation...
Steam looks at hours in the game. Wastedindestiny.com breaks that up into hours playing the game and hours spent waiting for events to load, running around the public area (tower).
Game time depends on a number of factors set by the developer or the publisher.
I'm not going to /played in WoW, but I've been playing it since about 3mo after launch (2004), and still going strong. Spent a long time in raiding guilds chasing world firsts.
That all said, I'm not an achievement whore, and last time I looked a few years back, I was at 338 days (just over 8,000 hours). I did skip the last expansion. So, 5,000 hours are definitely expert level @AWP in my mind. And 21K or 30K??? Wow. (No pun intended)

Crappy family picture. MC and the Midget play Star Citizen with me at times. Decadent Observer is the family ship.
I'll pay a little to have fun, and it's not like WoWS money put in is as much P2W as oh, say War Thunder. That game can die in a fire.
I have gunships that need turret operators, only have to peck 3 keys when you get in then it's all mouse aim and click... in Star Citizen
K and the Midget don't even have flight controls, I'm the dedicated pilot for the family (partially since I can get away with it, what with a recliner converted into a flight station and all).
It's fun, and with the org that I'm in, it's even more fun since we keep it interesting.

I decided to reenter the console wars and chose a side.
