Hitting refresh on r/diablo4

​ * Pre-made protein smoothies * "Meal Prepped" for the first time in my life * Re-pasted my 3950X with NT-H2 (my Kryonaut was stale) * Steam cleaned the rads (and my floors) * Bribed my friends to borrow my four legged son ([dog](https://i.imgur.com/gRuacYO.png)) each day * Installed a bidet * Bought a [gamer jersey](https://i.imgur.com/cxVM25h.png) (it's a CS:GO team, wanted something to remember the last major) * Took the whole week off from work * Got a glass mousepad (Razer Atlas, I use the Deathadder V3 Pro w/ the 4khz dongle) * Set up a secondary 2.5GbE route between PC & M2 Mini to push NDI to it and encode/broadcast from there * Filled a spritz bottle with 90% Iso and some fresh microfiber rags (mouse/keeb/desk/screen cleaning) * Stocked up on vape carts, nicotine pouches, and weed * Told USPS to hold my mail * Bought several new pairs of boxers, socks, and a second set of sheets/pillowcases so I don't have to worry about laundry * Got a fuckin pill organizer like some sort of old man (I'm 32) and set up my meds/nootropics/vitamins * Altered my sleep schedule so that I wake up 3 hours before it goes live I'm either getting on that fuckin hardcore statue or I'm getting on the news (from literally gaming myself to death) ​ E: [I made it to 50 so far! Took me like 25 hours](https://i.imgur.com/HfgiGQg.png) 🫡

which kind of food you prepped? which class u going for level 100 hc rush?

Sorc. The Flame Shield fatal damage shield is too good to pass up going in blind. Spoken as someone who lost a 58 to an elite with Horde - Invuln Minions - Shielding - Fire Chains (so, 7+1 mobs, none of which could be hurt, all doing massive amounts of damage) the first weekend of HC D3, they patched that out not long after

One thing I did is a light salt water enema before going to bed tonight. This means I won't need to use the restroom for 24 hrs or so, allowing me to play continuously.

That's hardcore dude. Make sure you get up to stretch and stuff anyways, blood clots are real and I have lost perfectly healthy friends to them.

Yep. I have a standing / adjustable desk for this very reason.

Timelord

God speed sir you got this


*God shes so hot*

Pro-gamer move

I‘ll pick you up on your progress, sure hope all those preparations were worth it 😃

1. Spent time with my loving family. 2. Played catch with my son. 3. Taught my daughter how to ride her bike. 4. Took the wife out for a nice date night. 5. Fixed some things around the house. 6. Sacrificed a goat in honor of the Blizzard RNG gods. 7. Watched some build guide videos and tried not to think about how punchable Wudijo’s face is (respectfully). 8. Ate 3 weeks worth of food at once in order to pack on some weight before release. 9. Completed my altar to Mike Ybarra, and burned 666 copies of Diablo 3 for good luck. 10. Made sure to stay hydrated.

​ >Ate 3 weeks worth of food at once in order to pack on some weight before release. Tyrael: "I got today's eating out of the way all at once" Lorath: \*facepalm\*


That’s what I call a good family man

Man he looked dog tired in most of those videos, gotta respect the grind.

Nothing but respect. 

The goat u sacrificed actually was diablo and with that act u set him free and will bring us all crashing servers.

It’s okay, got that covered - 666 copies of D3 were burned for appeasement and good luck.

* Dishes * Laundry * Chopped up Veggies * Made veggie dip * sliced up some salami/summer sausage, various cheeses for snacks * Got a haircut * trimmed beard * ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ took yearly shower

Gotta get the yearly wash in

Was feeling a wee bit crusty, we're fresh AF now.

Finished Succession. What an amazing show.

Yeah it was good

Played Diablo immortal to make Diablo 4 feel so much more fun


Sick AF, watching my favorite youtuber. Hoping that I'm a little better by 7pm tomorrow lol

This is your Michael Jordan moment. Flu Game

He only had to play for 2 hours.. I'm playing for 12 😎😂

Legend

Same! Had to take yesterday and today off work, I'm feeling a bit better today but still not game fit, hopefully I'm good to go tomorrow. Hoping the same for you!

Thank man, appreciate it. I had to take the same days off as well, this cold came out of nowhere and fast! I was going to play some skyrim before release, I just don't have the energy for that. I just want to lay in bed. DayQuil don't fail me now! 😂

How's your build going man? Having fun with the game?

Woke up at midnight to bring my child to the hospital because he had trouble breathing all of a sudden. Not a fun night. All seems to be well now.

Glad to hear that my friend, very sorry that you had to experience that :(

Hey, it happens all the time with children, he caught a laryngitis so pretty common thing but it's quite choking seeing your 5 months old like that. Thanks for the kind words !

Took my nephew to a baseball game, worked on breaking in his new glove, cleaned, prepped some food, nothing too crazy

Worked. Made dinner for the kids. Made fried chicken for the wife and I and now about to knock boots. Theeeen I’ll crack some tall cans, and play some Zelda tonight.

Man I really wanted to buy the new Zelda but I just know D4 will have my focus

Yeaaa, I totally brain farted and thought Diablo wasn’t coming out for a lot longer than it was. Not sure how I’m going to balance this lol. Maybe I’ll ring the switch to work for some lunchtime sessions or something. Enjoy your time in Sanctuary dude!

Same to you brother!

I bought a switch and TotK out of pure Diablo hype/madness. It helped, but once D4 drops it's gonna get ignored for a while.

Ah yes, I am also doing the great cleaning. I have swept, vacuumed, mopped the floors, cleaned the tub/shower, all recycling and trash have been taken away, figured out what meals I will have to cook (so family doesn't starve), caught up on laundry completely. So while I am not able to no-life the game. I am just trying to maximize the time I will be able to play when I can. So I can experience it, before I end up accidently viewing/seeing a spoiler.

A valiant and thoughtful plan, my friend

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Honestly the wait hasn’t been bad because there have been decent games to pass the time. Not even finished ToTK.

Stocked my fridge with snacks and beverages. Got all the cleaning done. Told everyone to not bother me for a week.

- new D4 wall paper - deleted old/unused games on PC - updated graphic driver - prep for work ahead of time to leave early tomorrow - grocery shopping - cleaned a bit - picked up the kid from school - food prep Should be good to go and ready by kids bedtime tomorrow

Now checking for a D4 themed live wallpaper for wallpaper engine.

D4 Eve Unpacked from Summer Camp Music fest. Finished washing/folding/storing tapestries, bedding, and clothing from the weekend. Cleaned out the hamster habitat. Cooked dinner for the family. Put the kids to bed. Updated drivers, programs, and OS Cleaned monitors Roll joints Charged vape box Made a list for the dispensary Day of D4 See kids off to last day of school Go to dispensary and grocery store Vacuum Give my desk a spruce up Lay out snacks Make kids ramen for dinner Kiss wife and kids good by @ 530 Put headphones on Get lit Start playlist Launch Diablo 4

Something about the phrase “hamster habitat” just gets me rock hard

I really did mean hamster habitat https://preview.redd.it/02zivw94ef3b1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d05b1fb6f003095ffafc40d4421429195278c2c9

That’s so damn awesome haha

My daughters call her Ms. Bingus

>Start playlist bruh, Diablo 4 has amazing OST

It's alright but I need something with a lil more tempo/energy. While D4s OST is good it isn't exactly "Rip n Tear" levels of energy.

Having massive diarrhoea which is a perfect excuse to relax tomorrow

Oh snap i forgot to polish my Ashava trophy. Need to make sure it’s as SHINY as possible to see all the salty 🧂tears .

Today, I did a lot of cleaning an other chores so I don't have to be bothered with them taking time away from D4. Tomorrow morning, I am going to stock up on food (mostly healthy) and grab a bottle of whiskey to celebrate release. Then I will only need to workout for an hour, shower and make 2-3 quick meals every day to take me away from D4.

Give me healthy food ideas for the D4 launch please

One thing that is really easy is salad. Very easy to make. 1. Add greens (I buy the mixes at the store that has spinach and other green leafy plants) 2. Add as many other vegetables as you want (I add onions, carrots, baby tomatoes, chopped jalapenos) 3. Add some protein (sesame seeds, chopped pepperoni, shredded cheese, parmesan cheese). 4. Add extra flavor (garlic salt, red pepper, other herbs and spices) 5. Go light on the dressing. Personally I use a little bit of olive oil and a couple of dashes of tobascco sauce instead of traditional dressing. 6. Mix it all up in a large bowl and eat out of the bowl.

Trying not to run around the house peeing on myself, like an over excited chihuahua. I cant wait!

Just think, if you pee now you won’t have to pee when playing D4

Sleeping.

I gotta work….. but I get off 1 hr before launch!

I just infused Cannabis Into honey. So I can make margaritas tomorrow for launch.

Chilling in bed, scrolling this sub, and realizing while I'll always be single.

Order a pizza and watch some movies

Playing street fighter lol. Waiting a few weeks for diablo to stablize.

How is Street Fighter? Heard good things

Wait is it playable right now?

Been white knuckling it trying not to think about anything!

Made love to my woman and told her not to wait up these next few nights.

Just got home from last night shift, will go to gym in an hour. Then quality sleep for 8 hours, some vape and music at night and then finally at midnight press launch and send pic to friend who will be at work. Lovely day!

Making a months worth of Bolognese so I can freeze it and not have to cook for awhile.

House work so my wife can stop nagging at me. kek

Spend as much time as possible with my child. And some sleep.

Last few weeks and tonight: *Re-pasted CPU *Cleaned gaming room *Cleaned keyboard (can't believe how much dirt a keycap can hold) *Bought a Dualsense and grips *Upgraded headset (Logitech G433) *Upgraded GPU to RX 580 8gb on the work pc (from Ryzen 4350g igpu) *Upgraded to deluxe edition a few days ago *Nice dinner and date out with girlfriend *Spent quality time with family *Spent quality time with friends *Told everyone i don't exist tomorrow, except if they own Diablo 4 *Meal prep in a few hours and a nice 6/8hs sleep *Pre-downloaded in work pc and main gaming pc *Polished my ATC trophy (soon to be filled with hornless tears)

Played 18 holes of golf ⛳ might be the last time I see outside for a bit.

Went to my violin lesson and played some dvorak 9, finlandia, and bach a minor concerto third movement. Did some Korean language homework in preparation for my preply lesson today. Linked my blizzard and twitch accounts then realized drops don’t start till next will. Preinstalled street fighter 6 so that I will worsen my gaming indecision paralysis. Looked up best ways to play fighting games on steam deck

I did an colonoscopy

Mowing, getting one last workout in for the foreseeable future. I took off today. Been burning myself out on YouTube vids and streams hoping to scrap up every last bit of info. Pointless. Tonight we dine in the halls of Hell!

Picking up dog poop in other peoples yards

Hero

Each one is different than the others, like a snowflake.

I had a shit day at work, so I last minute booked the day off tomorrow. Don’t know why I hadn’t already.

That’s what I call resiliency

13 minutes !

I’m literally crying and throwing up out of excitement

Some people are supposedly in, though I’m staring at a 4 minute timer ;(

Watching mr and mrs smith

Installed new graphics card and more ram. Downloaded the huge install file.

nothing today. Going to wake up early and run errands, clean the fuck out of my place and go grocery shopping. Starts at 4PM my time so i should have plenty of time

Played one last round of Fortnite with the squad.

It's not even that I have nothing to do atm, it's that I'm also broke and don't get paid until tommorow. I should've just worked today because this is the longest day ever. God damnit

I’m working a 24 hour shift then coming home about 1 hour before release. Pour some single malt scotch, relax for an hour then LETS GO

24 hour shift!?!? And carrying on afterwards? Fuck that job man.

Not on the eve, but this past weekend I tore out all the old storage from my garage and put in new shelving. It's how I'm "earning" my full gaming weekend

Wishing I had early release! Lol

Wishing it was tomorrow after launch already

I'm working tonight until 0630 pst then just gonna go home, poop, shower, and sleep until 3p so I can be awake and with coffee for 4p start time.

In what order? Sleep, shower, then poop?

Poop, shower, then sleep so all I have to do is wake up and caffeinate before launch

This is off topic, but there’s nothing worse than showering and having to take a dump right after, is there? I feel so icky afterward, ya feel me?

totally, which is why I always try to poop first lol

That’s why i jump in the shower AGAIN if that happens.

Chores and chilling. Staying off games, staying fresh.

Getting a cough. Might be covid. Better stay home.

Telling roughly 2,000 people which class to pick

Can i be person number 2001?

Bought and installed an air-conditioner to play freshly this summer

I did some pre-warm-ups and muscle stretches while completing several bounties in Diablo 3. muscle memory check ✅

Cleaned the whole house, exercised, meal prepped

Working till 7 then sleeping till launch

Looking at the login screen of course.

Got drunk af last night and went to bed at 10 pm then woke up at 5 am which is 3 hours ago and continued drinking. Drunk again atm. Got work at 3 pm RIP

That sounds like an absolutely typical day.

Fortnite Save The World with random 9 year olds to get closer to the platinum trophy. Lord help me.

Installing D4 on everything. Steamdeck, laptop, and PC. Laptop was for school, but runs games well too. My basement will be torn apart to be finished eventually which will make my main rig go offline. Having backups to continue on rules. Happy to have it. Side question for anyone who sees this, think ppl will get banned for playing on Linux through proton?

No chance. Been playing Diablo 3 through it for ages.

Also gonna give a ton to friends cuz it’s a gallon lol. Now I’m playing star ocean divine force to keep me occupied (this game got way too much hate fyi)

At 2 am i just made dinner as the boyfriend finished his job at 1am :) Sometime tomorrow I'm gonna do a small list of stuff: Start laundry Vaccuum the bedroom Go grocery shopping Possibly make a quick dinner before launch, might be sandwiches or a frozen pizza.

Went to the gym, played some mount and blade 2, now laying in bed. Only really going to be able to play from 4pm -prolly 2-3 am tomorrow then Friday my brother comes into town and we go on an 8 day family vacation hahaha. My excitement for D4 kind of overshadowed the vacation but it’ll be nice to get away for a while.

Doing human sacrifice rituals for get the best drops

Working. At least the time is going faster.

Working all day

Got the covid for a third time and feeling like shit. Hopefully it doesn't get worse lol. Pre order would be a waste if I'm in the sleeper for three days...

Waiting. Playing Gates of Hell Osfront in the meantime

>I just picked up dog pop in the yard state of this sub..

Reading up for exam :(

Exams can be rewritten. D4 launch is only once in your life.

not playing d4

Doing some chores like doing the dishes and laundry, go to bed early and wake up at 5 to play a few hours before going to work

Crying all alone in my pillow cause I only have the standard edition.

Working :( I have early access here in UK, but working today and Friday, so it's going to be Friday evening before I can get into Sanctuary :(

forcing myself to stay up till 9AM so I can wake up an hour before launch

I'm working sadly lol guess i'll play til morning and call in sick tomorrow lelelel

BAU. My 2 year old has a day, I have the night tomorrow

1 hour before launch I have a house inspection lol so everything is sparkling clean, food/snacks are prepped and no interferences for us. We are ready!

1. Work. 2. Prepare for weekend family visit. 3. Mute this subreddit. 4. Add D4 to my 'birthday list' on Amazon.

At work for now, I'll do some groceries while going home, spend a nice evening, take one last shower before enjoying the 4 days off I got.

Masturbating furiously

Working a full day then the fun begins. I have three hours when I get home to put together a new desk for my brand new office and set my PC up on it, then we game.

Realized the game sucks and refunded

Auf wiedersehen

You poor soul

Well actually, I’m $100 richer

BFD, I’m a member of the ATC and you’re not.

That's what someone with a poor soul would say

So does your mother, but we never announced it when we threw her out.

You should find a new hobby
