I've started working on my Demon Hunter for the Legion Remix, and it seems similar to the last time around. I'm enjoying the process, just like I did with the first variation of the Remix system. My demon hunter is sitting somewhere in the 20s and is still working his way through Aszuna. I've already picked up enough Bronze to buy two of the mounts, so I want to knock out most of them before I get to level 80.
After that, it will be back to my normal leveling group, which also means going back to another demon hunter. I might be pretty tired of them by the time I get them both to 80, but those are the last ones to do, so there won't be any more demon hunter 'ing until Midnight launches.
It's really nice that the one-button rotation is available during Remix, because I've come to enjoy using it quite a bit. I'll probably return to doing things the normal way eventually, but for now, it feels like a nice way to do it for me.
Real life has been a train wreck right now, and unfortunately, I haven't been able to spend as much time escaping to Azeroth as I might have liked. I got laid off from my job about a week ago. I am nearing retirement anyway, and they offered me a generous severance package, but it was still a bit of a shock, and it's quite an adjustment for someone who has been very work-oriented for the past 35 years.
Then, our youngest son decided that he had changed his mind about where he was going to college. He had been committed to swim at Texas A&M starting Fall of 2026, and decided to change his commitment and go swim for Arizona State instead. He just thought the team and coaching staff there was a better fit with his personality.
Then, our dog developed some kind of illness last week and had to spend quite a bit of time hospitalized. As it turns out, our dog had developed some ulcers in her upper GI tract, and she's on medication now and feeling quite a bit better, but she wasn't doing very well for a few days last week and had us all very worried.
So my game time has been severely limited. My wife isn't particularly interested in the part of my retirement plan that involves playing a lot more video games. However, we also need to work on getting the house ready to sell so that we can move somewhere closer to Arizona next summer when the munchkin starts school there. Not that he needs or wants us nearby, but it would be nice to be able to see his competitions more easily and cheaply than a 4 1/2 hour flight. Additionally, Arizona is a decent enough place to start my retirement, assuming I end up actually pursuing that path.
That is the update for now.
Cheers,
Joar
