re: BoTW, horizon or Witcher 3

After beating all three games, I moved back to Diablo 3 again. Once I got bored of grinding out another hundred paragon levels, I tried the three games again. New Game Plus got me back on Witcher 3. Kept character level, kept rare ingredients and inventory items that took me over 150 hours to amass on first playthrough, got the chance to make alternative quest choices (actually reunited the Baron and wife on NG+ instead of seeing him swing from a tree), and most importantly- realized that all enemies and gear were scaled up to my level.

I'll admit I was really disgusted and pissed to learn that my Grandmaster crafted Ursine armor was basically rendered obsolete, but then it dawned on me that it would be a blast to go through the process of crafting it all over again.

First playthrough, I invested over 200 hours. I thought I did everything. Second playthrough, I found things that made me say, " what the frick is this place?" and "oh shite, that big fricker didn't used to be in this cave, did it?". Just started third playthrough. It's my personal opinion that NOTHING in the game is more vindicating and gratifying than destroying Master Mirror at the end of B&W expansion. I always do the end of that questline last, after everything else is done, because after it's over everything else just kind of feels a bit stale.
