Beastie posted:I caved and got Diablo, have never played the game before. Is there a good "things to know for noobs article?" Adventure is better than story, completing bounties off the Act / World map is a good 'hey do this for prizes' thing. Rifts are randomized dungeons that are good fun to run through for prizes, as well. Turn on 'Elective Mode' in settings, it lets you reassign abilities to any slot / double up on same categories so you can pick a more varied or comfortable play style. Don't worry about minmaxing or an ideal build. Play around with what abilities seem cool and effective. The most enjoyable part of leveling in d3 for me is learning how to make a build or skills work without looking it up. If you want to just look up some top end builds for curiosity: https://www.icy-veins.com/d3/ tends to be the go to still. Once you hit 70, you'll begin leveling up Paragon levels. More stats that you can distribute to make you a more efficient demon murdering machine. Endgame is running Rifts to farm for Great Rift keys, running Greater Rifts for big prizes / exp (and max speed, it really is a speedy game at high end), and doing bounties for prizes and exp. If you haven't played before, do the story eventually. I just wouldn't start in story until you've gotten a few levels. It is extremely slow compared to adventure, so if you want a more laid back way to learn your new character, that is a good idea. Hell, i should go through and play Act V I never have. onesixtwo fucked around with this message at 20:57 on Nov 9, 2018 |

The story isn't that bad if you at least want to do it once.

Min/maxing in Diablo is so funny to me. Either you do a ton of research ahead of time and scream towards one specific setup or you play and get a sense of what you want to do until you get a pair of gloves that makes a previously unused spell into an orbital laser Cannon and you have to retool everything. Diablo is good. Wish I could justify $60.

Thanks for the tips! I've watched my brother play, but never tried to understand whats going on under the hood. I'm starting as a Necro on the story mode. Figure I'll put like 3 hours in there, get the basics, and jump over to a rift or adventure mode. Liking it so far.

in a surprise twist the 5 or 6 teams on the salsa side completely eviscerate the army of guac lovers through pure insurmountable difference in skill

I just started playing the D3 story because never got very far into Act 2. It is really fun so far, though I think I need to raise the difficulty again. Playing Crusader is a blast.

Pick the one you actually like more. Don’t pick based on what you think more children will pick, that’s super lame.

I had to do jack poo poo to get it working in my setup  It's a pretty new Yahama receiver that happily puts the little fish guys in Splatoon in the rear channels so I can hear them and practically shoot over my shoulder without looking at them.

I like having the video apps on the switch mainly for travel. I bring my dock with me a lot and play games on the hotels tv and being able to do that with my console without having to buy an A.V. out for my phone is nice. I also have some friends with kids who'd appreciate it since it means their kids (who don't have smartphones or tablets) can watch their shows on the switch while the adults watch sports. (Which was a vastly underrated part of the second screen aspect of the WiiU and another failure of Nintendo's marketing)

Salsa tastes good when made right but so does guac and it’s actually caloric substance. I’m voting based on utility here.

Is the Pro Controller a no-brainer? The battery life sounds great, but I never touched the Wii/Wii U equivalents and it's a little pricey. Then again the only other option I'd consider would be something super basic like the Horipad.

My buddy got one at Walmart for $50, and I got the Spla2n joycon for $60 during the same sale.
