There came a time when the Old Gods died!

Man, all these years later and I still love Jack Kirby. Guy was a genius.

Ever since cross-faction instancing was added to World of Warcraft in Shadowlands patch 9.2.5, players have eagerly embraced it.

Season 28 of Diablo 3 adds some gameplay twists befitting the Rites of Sanctuary Season theme -- including ritual sacrifice on the Altar of Rites of expensive items, like the Staff of Herding.

But at my back I always hear/
Time’s wingèd chariot hurrying near;/
And yonder all before us lie/
Deserts of vast eternity./
Andrew Marvell, To His Coy Mistress

Yeah, turns out instead of being a Kree Supersoldier, Marvell was a British poet who, like a lot of other poets since poetry started, was really concerned that he should be having sex right now because we could die at any moment so it really makes sense to get all your boning in up front as much as possible.

Okay, so he did other stuff too like write things directly addressing Oliver Cromwell and convincing Charles II to not execute John Milton once Chuck was back on the English throne. But his poetical version of we’re all gonna die anyway, let’s get it on while we still can has always stuck with me as the classiest frat bro come on I’ve ever seen.

We just got the confirmation that yes, we will have treasure goblins in Diablo 4.

Life in the world of Sanctuary -- the world we'll be returning to in Diablo 4, filled with macabre threats around every corner -- is a grim affair.

While your exact definition may differ, to me, a progression system is any system in a game that allows you to accomplish a goal and gain something that feels rewarding.

Without bumming people out with too much real life stuff, the past week has been nightmarishly stressful and I’ve been using Tetris Effect on my Xbox — thanks again, Game Pass — to get through it. I’ve found that it’s surprisingly helpful when I’m panicking about things I can’t possibly change to just zone out and play Tetris for an hour or so. Or more. A lot more, really.

 

The upcoming Diablo 3 Season 28 could be the last season the game has, because the Diablo 4 release date is is on the horizon — and if this is the last time we get to play a Diablo 3 Season, the team decided to go out with a bang because Season 28 adds an elaborate new talent tree system to the game.

Mythic+ dungeons are one of the best ways to gear up in WoW Dragonflight because they offer reasonably high ilevel gear and that gear is upgradeable with Valor Points.
