Monbiat's frustration and anger really comes through with this opinion piece. I agree with him pretty much entirely. Our planet us reaching or already beyond its limits for several global systems and yet we are doing effectively nothing about it. The inaction, as he highlights, is primarily because the plutocrats think it will be bad for business. We need to be raising hell about this... we're running toward a massive collapse of modern human civilization.

I'm writing a thesis that has significant support that the United States is and has, with the exception of about 30 years of progressive policy, been a plutocracy. The divisions in put country are by design. Division among racial lines, political affiliation, religious affiliation, professions, etc. are used to prevent the unification of the laboring class and dissuade us from collectively recognizing and challenging the status quo. The working people of this country have far more in common than not, but the political and moneyed class sow division via these wedge issues to prevent radical change - which would likely shift the US toward Scandinavian style social democracy.

I want to just write lol, but that doesn't capture my actual laughter. I am glad to be here and hope these communities continue to grow and become a stable place that is unimpeded by corporate interests, data harvesting, and invasive monetization. But seriously, here's a rat.

Goblins have been overall a disappointing show in D4. They drop mostly useless shit - may as well just drop 200,000 gold and call it, because that's basically all they are.

My brother is playing a druid and he absolutely smashes wt4. It was a rough start, but once his build came together he was shredding nightmare dungeons. I think you'd be fine playing a druid

Sounds frustrating. Thanks for doing what you do and letting us join your server! Hope the captcha works out.

I don't miss a thing about reddit. I was using the platform for about 9 years and the whole debacle about who gets to profit off our content resulted in me moving to something less shitty. SO far, Lemmy has proven to be what the internet was before big corporations took over and I will stay here. I just started donating to the patreon for lemmy.world (or rather mastadon.world, but same dev) and I intend on staying here. I like the engagement so far and hope that the community sticks with this platform. Thanks to reddits malarkey I was introduced to the fediverse and for that I am thankful

 

Hey folks,

D4 inventory and stash space is fairly limited and I was curious as to what everyone is keeping. I have legendary items in my stash, along with a collection of gems that are appropriate to my level (67). What exactly makes an item worth keeping? I have a decent idea of where my build is going, but I was considering changing to an ice build (I am playing a sorcerer), but like the idea of meteors, too. With shared space and so many options... whats worth it?

Bruh, tap here to edit text... a master stroke of shitposting.

I have been playing since the original release of Diablo around 1997 and, like you, enjoyed D2 thoroughly. D3 was a rough start, but the introduction of seasons and rifts was pretty great. I liked the feeling of overwhelming power that D3 offered. D4 is a lot slower, a kind of calling back to the original and D2. I am enjoying the game overall, but there are some things that I would change given the opportunity. I find gearing to be less intuitive - hard stats may have been a better way to do it rather than percentages, but I'm no game developer. Although even at level 67 I am missing the feeling of power, in time I am sure it will come. At least one can cope. The sorcerer in D4 doesn't feel as good as it had in the past. To be fair I am running with 4 defensive spells which doesn't leave room for much else. I am struggling in WT4, but the drops in WT3 have been less than helpful in making my character stronger. The stats I need simply aren't dropping.

Overall though? D4 is excellent. Balancing and changes will occur that brings the game together and I have no doubt I will be playing this game for another decade.

That is a neat looking horse. I have gotten 3 different sets of tack. A merchant tack, lamplighter, and something else, but I cannot recall it off the top of my head. The lamp lighter is pretty cool though.

Spot on. The "elites" and their puppets will not face consequences because they designed the system to benefit themselves. He will continue to be a corrupt parasite and make rulings that will take rights away from people not of the moneyed class.
