The season stuff hasn’t affected me so much because I’m still working my way through the campaign. The only thing I’ve noticed is the vulnerable stat nerf, but my druid werebear is still wrecking, so it’s not a deal breaker for me. I only play a little bit at night before bed so it’ll be ages before I’m dealing with endgame stuff. I love the game itself so far though. Only issue is a personal preference in that I hate feeling so isolated in dungeons. I miss in D2 when randoms would show up and join in, but D4 only does that in the world map.
The Trek thing is just the latest in a lifetime of trying and failing to get into the franchise. I’ve seen some TOS and TNG but that’s about it, and it never hooked me, so I thought I’d do something a bit different this time to try and give it another go. So far I’m really enjoying it, Enterprise is surprisingly fun!
As for the book, I’ve never enjoyed one so much that I was also desperate to move on from as this. It’s just so big, and too slow/slice of life for me. I’m reading it for the Magical Realism spot on this year’s reddit fantasy bingo and it’s definitely the most well written book I’ve read so far but my goblin brain wants swords and sorcery.
D2 is probably one of my favourite game ever. I have played D3, and beta of D4, and while I liked D4 a lot, it doesn’t come close to what D2 was.
I can understand the feeling, sometimes you just aren’t in the mood for something. In my opinion, it’s completely fine to leave it, you can always come back to it later, if you are in the mood, or not, nothing wrong with either. Life is too short, and there are enough books and tv/movies out there that we will never run out. So, why waste time on something that we aren’t fully enjoying?
Same! D2 is right up there for me, one of my childhood favourites.
I was so excited to complete the bingo challenge I’m reluctant to abandon the book, but usually I’m very much the same as you and drop books whenever I lose interest.
At this point though I’m starting to really resent the bingo. I’m just too slow of a reader, it’s going to be a struggle to finish it before April.
Yeah, I used to do these challenges before, but sometimes they become a chore. Why not change the rules for yourself a bit, if the book becomes a drag, you can just leave it midway, and consider it done for the bingo challenge. That’s what I do now, if I have have given it my best, for me it is as good as done.
Of course, if this is some kind of competition, then you should either finish it completely or don’t mark that item, but these bingo cards are just for fun, and made to broaden your reading genre/author/etc, so you decide how you take them.
I’m only in competition with myself, I suppose, but I did really want a custom flair for the subreddit… Which I no longer visit since joining here… Hmm. It’s beginning to feel less important.
Hey thanks for the interest!
