LGBTQ+ Megathread & Lounge (Part 1)

Didn’t expect it to actually happen, but I’ve now counted two people who have spammed lengthy homophobic slurs in game the past week. One I thought was just a political troll, but apparently is a full stack troll. The other player was trolling chat one day about being addressed wrong pronouns, but then the next day said the most extreme homophobic slurs I’ve ever seen in game.

People really are sociopaths in this game and do things in extreme bad faith for funsies.

Like I wasn’t expecting trolls to actually plan around pride month to be homophobic in game, but there you have it.

Welp decided gonna go Necromancer and omg these customisation options like damn i love it :dracthyr_uwu:

Tbh that’s completely unsurprising noticed trends of bigots coming out of the woodworks on Pride month to stir up trouble.

It’s so cliche I thought it wouldn’t actually happen.

I also gave benefit of doubt to people, thinking maybe they’re just generic trolls who go with their flow, but nope.

The in game cutscenes are pretty dope too. But man. I missed those big fancy schmancy cutscenes. I think the folks that work on them got scooted over to the diablo team for a bit. I could be remembering it wrong

So saddening to see today’s news talking about WS attacking our communities of the LGBTQ. Seems this craps never going to stop.

Stay safe all of you this month. Stay proud and strong but exercise caution. There’s been a lot of bad happening lately. :cry:

Welp my Necromancer is lvl 12 now and well she looks so awesome >.>

Thinking might take the other 4 classes through the prologue though give them a lil try although doubt I’ll swap off Necromancer cause well she looks so awesome and I like my army of undead minions but happy I’m having fun with it was kinda worried I wouldn’t like it :dracthyr_comfy_sip:

Anyway my Necromancer Valexi.

I tried out necro so I’m having fun. Its like my old turret d3 demon hunter just with undead lol.

Try to go thru the story mode all the way thru with at least one character before you handle alts. Well once you feel comfy with a class I mean.

I had a giggle hearing the playable necromancer male voice tho. Just “oh he’s sassy. He’s mine now”

On a more comical note. ( I thought it was funny anyway )

Apparently you can get a nose bleed if you cough sometimes. 33 years and that NEVER happened before. Having a small cough while playing Diablo of all games and then getting a nosebleed lol

Yuh that’s pretty much the plan pre made a character of every class to take through the prolouge then whichever one I like most take through the campaign :dracthyr_comfy_sip:

But hoping I’m wrong about my concerns of areas not scaling up cause I’m just running around doing everything but the main story don’t want it to end up like this :dracthyr_crylaugh:

So far it seems it scales with you. I had main quests say they were my current level no matter how much I leveled

I was playing in the veteran tier at first but eh I’ll go with the first option for this 2nd story mode attempt.

Rogues fun until you get randomly sick like I’ve been getting lately. So now I just wanna chill and let undead handle it.

Whatever is going on in this apartment has been volleyballing all around the place so Mom and I keep getting “oh we feel better. OH WE ARE SO NOT FEELING BETTER” reactions lol

Okay the other reason I’m going with necromancer is just because they remind me of Enki from Fear and Hunger XD

But I’m thinkin if I manage to get to the end of the campaign which only happens if I’m enjoying the game I might take up Diablo 4 as a side game to WoW used to be Destiny 2 but haven’t enjoyed playing it for awhile now like thinkin I’ll stick around for the light and dark saga and then quit for good :dracthyr_shrug:

Playing a game bit by bit is still valid. I do that with Monster Hunter Stories 2. A little session thru the story every other day.

I’d be playing d4 now but I got booted from a network dc lol.

Meanwhile I swear Mom just has a “Hmmm my kid might be feeling under the weather. Lets get some comfort take out” radar. She texted me asking if I wanted PF Changs. Heck yeah I do. Lo mein with no veggies please. Nom.

Yuh that’s basically me with Destiny 2 I love the world and lore but the gameplay just getting stale burnout kicking in.

But wish I’d look at settings sooner apparently could add a toggle for certain abilities wich is nice having to hold stuff down was so annoying

Yeah I had to do a lot of tweaking to get d4 running on the new computer.

Downloading the game and I realized I needed to update my drivers. Oops. So that was an hour or two of waiting.
