    I’ve been working on Diablo 3: Season 31 off and on for a couple months now, and I’m kind of over it. I made it all the way to the Conqueror chapter, but I keep getting repetitive and useless legendary drops, even though I’m on higher Torment levels. I’m at a plateau that I’m just not that interested in crossing. I don’t know if it’s because the class I picked or the build or what, but I think I’ll just call it here until next D3 season. It’s like a complete polar opposite of the fun I’m having with Diablo 4’s current season (which we finally got pets for!).

    I thought Kona 2: Brume would be a separate story than the first that I played a few weeks ago, but nope, it picks up exactly right where the first one left off. Story wise this game is a lot more interesting and linear than the first, even though it goes in some weird directions and still leaves unanswered questions. I did feel like I was actually learning the story as I went along, instead of going until the very end to have it all laid out for me. I did have to look at a walkthrough for one area because there was a ridiculous amount of back and forth over and over for that size of a map that I kept getting confused on where to go and what to do.

    spoilers?

    So many unanswered questions! Like does Carl have radiation poisoning now? If not, how did he avoid it? What was up with the meteor? Why did it make people react the way it did? The scientists couldn’t make the blue pieces red, but then it suddenly didn’t matter because the core was red? How did the guy turn into a wendigo? Was it because of the meteor, or was Carl just hallucinating him as such? The Cree angle kind of felt pushed aside, it almost feels like the aliens meme.

    I felt the need to have a FPS after my recent bout of non-shooter games recently, and I was in the mood for F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin. It’s been a couple years since I’ve replayed this for the thousandth time, and it’s still a great time. I absolutely love the entire F.E.A.R. series.
