Sounds like you've put enough thought into your situation for both of us so I'll leave you to it. Try not to let yourself get too upset!

Reminds me of the Fish Peppers I've grown the past 3 years! But definitely less hot/more versatile!

Feels super bad, but if you still want to play, the upside spin is that you can frame it to yourself as the patch letting you out of the "Necro Jail" you created for yourself and try lots of wildly different options now.

I mean I totally get the disinterest too, but basically that's what happened for me when they ground Chrono into dust after years of being the only real source for alac and quick.

Not a fan of the look for any set but heavy, but I'm super pumped to have a pathway to legendary armor through content I prefer to play without being forced into content I don't enjoy at all!

This may very well convince me to set a long term goal of unlocking full legendary armor and full legendary runes, which would easily keep me involved in GW2 for many more years to come.

I've been on an extended hiatus since last fall due to burnout and some IRL difficulties, but seeing all this news about the new expansion has me ready to get back into it once I finish up my summer traveling!

43 from vlemmy.net as well!

Very much so.

Any other DnD communities out there at the moment that aren't hamstrung by similar rules?

Asking for a friend.

Ugh, I'm so sorry you had to experience that horrific playoff series.

I've been playing since just before HoT, friend, I've taken most of it slow, but occasional burnout is just part of the game for me.

Honestly the biggest thing that led to this one was that I've been working towards Bolt...only to find out that I can't just use my tyrian exchange vouchers for dungeon currency to buy gifts I need. Now I need to finish the specific dungeon's explorable path 5 times before they'll even sell it to me.

And since I mostly play solo and dungeons are so buggy, I basically just gave up on it, which left me pretty aimless.

This is very timely for me.

I got burnt out last November and haven't touched GW2 since. But lately I'm getting the itch again.

I can't really say much, but I did love reading that link about playing a fairy, so more of that sort of thing would be awesome.

On the other side, I'm not at all interested in DnD Beyond, so having that content tagged makes it easier to filter out.

Overall, this is one of the more active subs I'm subscribed to, so I think you must be doing something right!

Victoriously flee for our lives, I think he means!

For me personally, 4e felt a lot less like, "Here's a set of rules and lore to help you and your friends tell awesome interactive stories!"...

...and much more like, "Here's the rules to a slightly more story and narrative driven, and more complicated, tactical miniatures combat game. Miniatures sold separately."

Sure, you can play 4e without minis, but it really felt like the core of the game was built around the assumption that you had a big table, a DM that was into modeling terrain, and boxes of minis ready to go. Playing 4e without minis felt kinda like trying to make a pizza without cheese. Like sure, I guess you can, but it's clearly intended to be a core ingredient.
