I thought I would have a wee game of DII th'night. My front jack-plug socket had died recently so having no sounds in general from my pc has somewhat diminished its attraction. So after clearing the table of enough crap that I could pull it forward enough to plug the headphones into the back, voila a pc worth playing games/listening to music again :)
/end ramble

I had brushed off one of my lower chars, jumped into a game to find the place a bit shaky and some diabolic fiend was walking the earth!!
So had to faff about waiting for the game to settle before I could roll one of my big guns out to deal with the fiend.

Sadly my biggest char was too weedy, kinda thought that would be the case as I had a run in before which led to no pots and many deaths much to my disgust, we have all been there, in that loop of nearly getting there and sudden deaths. All stubborn muscles twitching in a frenzy of vexation.

This time discretion was the better part of valour and I stopped after using up all my pots but with no deaths. I was getting the sod down to about a third/quarter but was running out of pinks.
Sent Pict off to lick her wounds and brought my original char back out and played him again further back in Kurast.
Thankfully Pif appeared and after some swearing and hammering at the keyboard (I couldn't remember the bloody chat commands) I roped him into help.
Bless his cotton socks it was much much easier with his help and the ravening beast was overcome in a short and perfunctory manner!
Woot!!!
*silly grin*
wheeeeeeeeee!!!!

Holy shit. I just went back in time to 2001!

Picty, if you can read this I am from THE FUTURE. We have flying rocket cars and meal pills. Also we have the internet now, not sure if that's happened yet in your time. There are pictures of norks and everything.

I know what you mean. I re-installed recently in a haze of drunken reminiscence and played for a while, got into Act IV but just couldn't quite get organised enough to kill the big D on my own. Then the horror of playing 800x600 on a 1920x1200 screen cut in and I put it down again.

If only the resolution could be increased I would play this game forever :)

/update Had to get back into it tonight and got into Act V. Woopee :)

Oh no, cat-herding time *wails in despair*

Hmm on a much more elitist note, do we have to do all of the 'key' quests at once Pif?
I still have my three keys. Was too fearty to even consider attempting the quest even with help after the trouble I had with the uber-diablo previously. Now am feeling somewhat cockier *grin*

LOL, watching your exp dwindle back down to zip from about half-three quarters is um 'character building' in the metaphorical sense
*wry smile*
