Yeah, same here. The mount was pretty neat, but I couldn't get the Butcher to spawn either. I should have put "event" in quotes, because it really didn't feel like I did anything. I kind of wish they had done something like the Midwinter thing they did last year where you had to complete world events for currency for the cosmetics.

Popped back into Diablo 4 for a couple nights for their Halloween event.

Finished Alan Wake and its DLCs! I always forget how much I love this game. It makes me very happy to have replayed it again.

Next on the Remedy list is Max Payne, which I just started last night. I also love this game, but man, I always forget how terrible I am at it. I don't know if it's because it's an older game or because I play with mouse and keyboard, but my coordination is absolutely abysmal. But, I'm still having fun, and that's all that matters.

The first two paragraphs of the spoiler is one of my favorite parts of the game. It is such an awesome detail and had me giggling like a crazy person.

Eh, I'd argue it's because of the modding community that Bloodlines 1 is still played today, especially with the unofficial patch.

I would love to see F.E.A.R. with updated graphics. Preferably just a remaster, but if it was remade in the same spirit as the Dead Space remake was, I'd be down for that too, especially if they brought back Fettel's voice actor.

That's kind of where I am now: I have T3 unlocked, but I'm not happy with the rate at which I'm killing stuff at that level in the Pit, so I'm upgrading what I can until I'm more comfortable there.

Oh, that's good to know that the drop rate isn't just me then, haha. I'm on Torment 2, and thought about moving up, but if the drop rate isn't any better, I'll just stay where I am for now.

Technically finished out the season journey and "campaign" rewards for Diablo 4: Season 6, now I'm just going for 100% completion and the rest of the battle pass rewards. I'm thinking it might take me a while, since for whatever reason ancestral items don't drop that often for me, and the last thing I have to do is salvage 100 of them. It might have to do with the Torment level I'm on, but since the season doesn't end until the end of January, I'm not too worried.

Speaking of Diablo, I was going to complete Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred with my OG campaign Necromancer, but I was having so much fun with my seasonal Rogue that I started working on and finished the DLC with her instead. Not sure how I feel about the ending of the expansion, since leaves a very big opening for more expansions (or d5?) and doesn't really feel finished as far as the story goes.

Since The Lake House DLC came out this past week for Alan Wake 2, I've decided to replay (most) things Remedy, starting with Alan Wake, of course. I'm playing the remaster, which looks a lot better than I remember playing it for the first time. And while replaying it after having played AW2, I didn't realize there were SO MANY references they stuck in referring to the sequel. Hell, even the QR codes that were just fun little things in the pc port have been turned into straight up references. It's been so fun to replay.

Oh, I love this game! Really short and easy, and the narrator is fantastic. But I might be a little bias, since Dagon is my favorite in the Cthulhu Mythos, haha.

Finally started in on Diablo 4: Season 6, and it was a little bit of a pain leveling up with the new system, but once I got into the paragon boards, man, things really took off. I am in love with my Dance of Knives Rogue. She is mowing down mobs like they're nothing. It's only been a week and I'm already on the Slayer chapter for season objectives. At this rate I'll be done faster than my Necromancer last season.

Played Amnesia: The Bunker (again, lol) one night for a couple more achievements: never dropping/storing an item and playing through the whole game without saving. I was also trying to go for three with one about taking out a bunch of rats, but for some reason I could never get more than a group of 4. Oh well.

I second Quantum Break. When I first started that game, I wasn't sure if I would like it, but it was fantastic!

I was addicted to Sam's Hatch Chile Cheese Flavored Peanuts from the first time I tried them while walking by one of their many sample carts. They were a limited run, so I was very sad when Sam's stopped carrying them. But, they did start stocking the seasoning itself, so I got that going for me.
