More and more and more endgame, without proper begingame or middlegame before it (campaign + normal monos together is probably the shortest, for sure the easiest, midgame of any arpg I know).
Oh well, on the bright side, to link with the subject of the thread, I won’t have any problem playing both Diablo 4 and Last Epoch, because I will be done with a LE season in less than one weekend. 
And of course, even if it is bad news I don’t want to shoot the messenger: huge thanks to Andrew, as always, for keeping those of us who don’t watch streams posted!
