DIII Expansion Complete

I finally finished Reaper of Souls.  Actually, I'll admit, this was a while back.
No in depth review cause I missed the boat, but I can say I did have a good time.  I really did.

When I reviewed Diablo III Classic, I only played until the beginning of Act III.  I didn't know how rushed or unpolished the last 2 Acts felt, but my brother said it was kind of meh.  Truthfully, I didn't find it so bad.  Maybe there were changes between the expansion and the initial launch.  Or, it's because I'm a bit of a fan boy.  Moving on,

Who did I pick as my nephalem?

Of course...

Took my sweet time to enjoy all 5 Acts playing the Crusader (Crusaderess?) on normal difficulty, and had fun running around in Sanctuary.  After finishing the final boss, I cranked the difficulty up in adventure mode, but after 2 weeks of hard looting, playtime steadily decreased.  I still drop in for a quick smack and smash here and there, but it's more or less for a casual run.

Overall - 8  Feel good changes / updates and feels more polished as a single player game.

I Caved

I'm playing Hearthstone now

I was hoping to hold out until the Android app came out and start at the same time as my buddy (cause our wives own the iPad).

But when he started, it's like, why the hell am I holding out all alone by myself?  Whelp, grab a beer and shuffle some cards.

Entering an old Gate

Downloaded Baldur's Gate on the Nexus 7.  I've never played it before.  So naturally, I'm a total noob.  You know what it feels like?  Going up against a demon with a skimpy sling and string.

I'm out of mana.

Not much protection there, but remember the D&D rules.  An enchanted hair elastic can provide more protection than a 2 inch full plate of armour.

True Story.
