Paintbrush

Game: Diablo 3
Price: $19.99 (On sale until the 24th)
Subscription?: No
Basics: 6 Classes, ARPG category. Free to play after buying the game, feels like Baldur's Gate for the PS2.

Pretty awesome now with the way they did things. They took out the auction house and shut down trading gold so now people have to do that grind for their gear rather than break out their plastic loot card. Next I think that they way they redid the difficulty system really helps players get better at what they play rather than pamper those that don't want to learn. What I mean when I say that is players are constantly challenged now because difficulty scales with your character. You can't just go run a lower difficulty to just destroy everything. I feel that many people that did this ended up quitting when they learned all of endgame is extremely challenging and requires a bit of time to be put in.

Now for the bad side of things. I think that the games dynamic difficulty will actually chase off some very casual players because its definitely not a walk in the park. Also the lack of a trading system beyond the rugged barter system at the moment is HORRENDOUS. Its scary to think that you need to get 743 gems to get 1 max level gem. Reason I say 743 for 1 is because now we cant buy the 1 max level gem with gold that we had anymore and now the highest level gems that drop are Flawless Squares which take 3 of them to go to Perfect Squares, ect. Now this makes the end game of D3 look extremely intimidating and grindy just to have your max level gems. Now I hope they clear that up with Reaper of Souls coming out on March 25th (HYPE!), but as it stands that's an unbearable amount of farming even for me.

Final Rating? 8.5/10
Comments? I recommend this game highly with the way its revamped; especially if you like games like Dark Souls, Baldur's Gate. You can expect a hectic time slaying tons of demons and undead to beat the lords of hell in the head with your sword. I know that its been an amazing game to me, but it does have a few minor drawbacks that can be overcame with teamwork and some friends.

This is my first game review, please let me know what you want me to review next and I'll gladly give it a go.

This time I'm on twitch with a no lag setup playing a bunch of games like D3, the new south park game, SM64, ect. Come join me sometime at http://www.twitch.tv/deshio

I'd like to extend my paw to you in apology. I used to do things out of a drive for attention back when I was around here. Looking back and reading these old journals are making me sick with the kind of drama I was pumping out. I left here out of a lack of attention, now I return as a different person. I went and found who I was, and not who other people wanted me to be. I was kind of stuck in that high school mentality for a while, lost myself in it so to say. Well I'm back, but don't expect a bunch of drama or anything (Reading this sounds drama-y already Ugh.) I do really miss the few friends I had around here.

Anyway without further adieu, I'd extend a handshake to those who care to make a re-acquaintance with me; if not, no harm done.

With pleasure,
Paint Brush

Hello everyone from about 2 years ago. I am back! Just a lot of shit with college has drug me away from doing anything. No more problems this way though, so I'm back and kicking. Hopefully some of you guys possibly have me watched still, but I wouldn't blame you if you didn't seeing as I was gone for close to two years.

Anyway signing out,
P.B

P.S - I don't go by Vari anymore. Was just a phase.

P.S.S - Yes I just cleared out my old submissions.

Well, as the title says, I've been itching to write a good story. I've always wrote the epic adventure type of stories. Now the whole reason I'm typing all this out is that I wanted to involve some of you guys and gals out there in the story by filling the rolls with your characters. If you want to toss me a idea or want me to use your character for a story then do leave a comment.

A possibility could be a voiced version of the finished story if people would like to voice their own characters. That all relies on how people like the story.

P.B

(P.S - You can make up a character if you so wish too.)

Saw about 4 of these today so thought I'd post one before I go to bed...

Ask away? *gulp* owo

Heyas from the rat. Came back from a good 4th of July today and thought I'd make a good ol' journal here to update people, talk a bit, and rant a little. I'll get the important shit out of the way so that you guys don't have to read all of this mess. ;P

First off, I have 5 days until I move to Houston. Now don't count me out of things anywhere since its still summer and all, but that means I'm gunna have to find some new people to buddy up with. If you happen to know some Houston / Kingwood area furs/groups toss 'em as a comment. That would be much appreciated.

Just wanted to talk about today in summary starting around 1 PM today. Got up today and was greeted with S'mores for the 4th from my parents (awesome) and a friend came over to tell me about a party he was having. Around 6 we started the party outside with some crappy fireworks (but thats about the best you can do around here) which only lasted about 15 minutes. Even though that sounds short we had some old bitch come outside to tell us she would call the cops if we pop anymore firecrackers fuckin' halfway down the street. So with that we packed up our stuff except a small black cat we had and put it all away, but before we went inside we lit that Black Cat on her doorstep and ran. Was funny as hell to watch her freak out on her front doorstep not knowing what to do. After we went back inside we played a boardgame called Quelf (pretty much a dare game it seems) and we couldnt stop landing on rule spaces; so by the end of the game we had people throwing dice at the bored, 2 people saying stuff twice, and a slew of other annoying rule cards. Party didn't last long after the boardgame was over so we decided to go our separate ways and haul out of there. I brought Paint Brush out with me to wear for the first time in public and it went great! Good end to a good day...

Thanks,
P.B

P.S- How was YOUR 4th?

Great song, thought I'd see what the few people I know here think.

P.S - Im on a nocturnal sleep schedule at the moment so I'll respond when I get up later tonight.

Good Night,
Paint Brush

Heya everyone, I'm still alive over here even though it doesnt seem like it. I graduated last week on Friday (Woo!) and been working my ass off playing Diablo 3. Also I paid off my fursuit head and he's on his way here! ;3 There will be pictures as soon as he gets here. As for everyones stuff I need to ship out, its coming soon, just been really busy since my family and I are in the process of moving and shit so yeah...

Paint Brush

I say goodbye to my weakness, So Long to the Regret

Ever take a moment to take in the world around you? Just to let every little thing sound its sound to you? It can be overwhelming what goes on right under your nose without you ever knowing. After removing myself from a state of depression and just down right shittyness I can finally see everything around me; everything around me sounding off is depressing... I just recieved horrible news from multiple sources. It just seems as if the world trys to get you down and those who resist it can see it happening all around us. With that I extend my hand to those having trouble, that could use a ear to releave their fustration, to come and talk to me. I'm always willing to listen and help you out, but you have to be willing to help yourself first. My skype is on my page.

Thanks for reading,
Vari / Paint Brush

P.S - I don't know everything, but I'll do my best to help you. I've done what I used to call the impossible, you can too.

No more mousepads are aloud to be printed, and he's keeping our money already put into printing, I'll be shipping out the ones I've made for people already, but I can no longer take orders for them. Thank you for the business and I hope those of you who got yours love them.

Over the course of last night ive been scared practically shitless due to something that one may never have the unlucky chance to experience.

First off I was ripped from my sleep at exactly 12:39AM last night but it didnt feel right. Everything was incredibly bright and a ringing song that sounded like latin was all that i could hear. I stood up from bed and stumbled to my feet to look back and see my own body still in bed. I felt my way around my room for a few second (those that seemed about the longest ever) before being thrown by something right back into my body. Whatever was there had not a harsh touch but a gentle one as it didnt feel as it was trying to hurt me. Again horrifying experience yet incredible at the same time.

If you have any clue as to what happened or what could possibly be the bright being in my room then by all means do tell me!

For the time being ill return to never sleeping again.

Tymid is drawing a free drawing with her character Tymid in it, but with a twist. She will use a random number generator to select those who post a response to this journal.

As some may know I'm a very quiet and pessimistic person. I've set out to change this! I've grown over time to hate who I am because of how I turned out to be a complete social outcast for the last 11 years. Well time to say goodbye to the old Deshy and hello to Vari! A great person has helped me recently with advice and I can't thank him enough for the guidance.

 Okidoki "theres an Alpha in everyone, you simply have to decide when and if your going to be one"

I recently saw Oki at my first con, Furry Fiesta, and his personality just hooked me as outgoing. Maybe fate drove me to find Oki at Furry Fiesta or just dumb luck but I know that before then I was a complete ass to most people I've known and I didn't realize how bad off I was. With the crappy story out of the way I bid aduie to the old me and say hi to Vari the Shadow Roo.
