I guess today is not a good day to play HC. Just deeded my 97.3 Hammerdin in CS, lost enigma, cta, hoto and whole lot of other good gear :/ Funny, that's my second ever HC character that died. First one was a sorc when I just started playing HC, maybe this one's a sign to stop playing altogether.
I need something strong. Whiskey, no ice.

I think it's time for a few you to prove that you can get along without making booze postings for a whole week, else you might have to stand being called a cyber-alcoholic
BTW, you mean Tullamore Dew, not Mountain Dew, right? And FYI, my online dictionary mentions Marihuana as a possible translation...
I wouldn't go that far, however.
We need a few new, old faces in the OTF. I'm a bit fed up with discussing refugees, Brexit and other serious stuff with jmervyn.
RIP Mal's char.
Omg. Darkoooo! Nice to see you again. RIP your Hammerdin as well. Maybe I shouldn't re-install D2 yet. D1 Beelzebub mod is still really good.
@T72on1 I kind of remember Alone in the Dark, but IIRC, we couldn't get out of the first room without being attacked by something. I just recall not getting far and being confused by it. Then again, I was a kid, so had no idea what I was doing.
D1 Atmostphere. You really couldn't beat it back then.

You really don't want to go towards that room. Just the dread of what might happen.View attachment 3518

Alone in the Dark: Then something came in the window, so you had to push a cabinet or something in front of it. And there was a trapdoor from the attic which something climbed up, so you had to cover it up. I can't really recall exactly, just really confusing memories of not knowing what to do..
I basically have no friends.. maybe except few people on FB. Even those few in RL are mostly FB ones as we see each other very rarely. I don't even have anyone to play with nor anything to play with (except D2 & D3).

Used to love music. I used to write a lot of music reviews on my blog - sometimes the music was so inspiring for me that I was writing more a story than a review. I have written more than 150 reviews so far and recently, I don't even have any inspiration or motivation to write anything. Used to really feel the music now I don't even feel myself.
Going for Kraftwerk's concert this month, I still like to listen to them from time to time. Hope it would be at least as good as last one (2013 - 1st 3D show in Poland).
Has anyone heard of the GDQ (Games Done Quick) events? Live charity event stream for speed-runners, glitch exploiting, and just general gameplay/commentary done quick. Currently, Summer GDQ is happening, and, looking through the schedule, found this interesting game.
On Sunday July 10th, Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction will be played by MrLlamaSC. Will be speed-run as a Druid.
With a little google-fu, these are apparently his past runs:
I think it'd be interesting to see his experience with the game and speedrunning, since I imagine this would have to be untwinked to count.
Has anyone heard of him before, or seen any of his streams?

Out of curiousity RedTang, what do you do/what age range are you in? School, college/uni, working, or somewhere inbetween?
I kind of relate - I have a very small group that I consider friends, and those usually consisted of workmates and housemates, which I never really had contact with outside of their respective places. But I am a strong introvert, and am much better at talking to one or two close people than socialising at parties or pubs/clubs or anywhere else. I just like my space and having a small, close person or two who are important to me. If I'm completely honest, I don't have many friends either (more acquaintences and friendly people,) but those I do are close and very important.
Is that similar to what you think yourself? Would you describe yourself as someone who would generally enjoy having people around a lot, or find more comfort on your own, or with just one or two people?

@Drystan - actually, I'm still uni but kinda higher level as I'm doing a PhD course. Not sure if I can do it but I won't resign from it.
I would like to have someone around me. Never had a real friends, except few people on FB. I am also an introvert. I don't like any parties or so, no alcohol or smoking. Maybe it would be better with a small group than completely alone.

I hear an echo in my own head. Minus FB, as I'm too old for that.
Though I think Goldthru is on to something with depression there.
One thing I have learned - when you hit a barrier of some sort, it's best to get to deal with it as quickly in life. In other words, find help now, and you won't need it later, and if, certainly to a lesser extend.
I take from your description and being at uni that you're still kind of young, so you stand a good chance. It's much harder when you're older. Everything is. Esp socialising and making friends. I ended up with less than a handful, and one of 'm I constantly argue with!
So You think I should go and see a doctor? I planned to do it as my uni offered it but I resigned as I read that their doctors are basically powerless and could only give some advices or so. Now I have more free time, should really do it. And push harder my PhD. I might need it later in life. Instead, I sit here and watch Fight Club (with subs). Strange movie. Kind of weird. The beginning doesn't feel like it's a beginning, more like a some loose piece from the middle.
Well seeing someone could help. I benefited from EMDR and Mindfulness (the latter minus all the floaty yoga crap, it has a lot of really helpful techniques to deal with situations, but as always it attracts new age flies).
Keep in mind that if you see someone from uni, the first person trying to help may not be helpful. Happened to a friend. I was lucky, the first person I talked to was very helpful.

I was also too stingy to pay for a real, outside-of-uni, psychologist. Now, I have a bit of my own money. Pushed myself to do a bit of good things for myself when I was in a bit better state of mind. Maybe I have some kind of manic states and then go through depressive lethargy when I feel neutral, complete lack of emotion. Like some kind of flesh and bone golem, focused on just living the life and day-to-day activities.
controversy incoming (for biblical literalists)
A video addressing the absurdity of Ken Ham's ark and how it doesn't at all represent what he wants it to, and for good reason: physics and biology

I've watched several GDQ streams before, including D2LoD from the previous AGDQ. Llama ran a normal sorc in that event and he explained general speed running tactics for that particular build. If you're a D2 vet like most people in this forum, most of his knowledge won't be news. Maybe a few speed running specific tactics like stealth glitching and stacking potion duration are some interesting tidbits, but things like exploring all the maps efficiently are already done by any d2 vet. For those that want to watch but don't have much time, there's the option of waiting for the VOD on youtube for 2x playback speed or time seek.

@Redtang :
I think it would be helpful to talk with someone. Especially since it sounds like you don't have many close relationships. I am also a super introvert, and it's helped me greatly.
@pharphis : I'll watch that video later, no time now (I'm assuming you're aiming that at me)
