I think I actually have a little more overall time on the Division than D2 right now. Hard to say since DestinyTracker is giving me nonsense numbers. But the Division is almost 5 days and D2 was under 3 last I looked and I doubt it's hit 4. I have zero motivation to boot up the game. If I stumble upon 5 ready-to-roll proper Den bros looking to raid sure I'm in just because I don't even have a clear yet... but... Flashpoints? Nightfalls? Hell... even the exotic quests that I haven't done yet...?
PC version is right around the corner. Will I be able to build up enough will to grind up even one character?
I played some BF1 and Rocket League last night. That was way funner.

AFAICT, they went full The Division and just made everything more bullet/spacemagic spongey They should have implemented the loot and gear from the Division as well. That level of customization would be great.

Like... I understand it is good to cater to casual players. There should always be a way to catch up and short fun activities for workday heroes. No Hard mode rewards make sense if they want to make sure that everyone can have the same collection of guns. Never raided? Don't worry.... you might be able to get a complete set eventually from clan engrams. Never played trials? Don't worry... samething. I'm even alright-ish with that. They needed a good carrot for participating in clan stuffs. But Hard mode raid...man. Twitch is a THING right now. People can /see/ that the 1% is not happy. When your 1% isn't happy nowadays you don't get happy streamers. When you don't get happy streamers you stop trying to strive for end game goals. Is that the plan? if the 1%'ers ain't playing and grinding, then the clans won't be working as well . . .and then the free shit ain't going to be dropping as much for the casuals. And more so, if the 1%'ers ain't playing as much, they can't be carrying people like me in the raids. Everything kind of trickles down.

Vegas is listing the odds as follows Pegasus never gets a character to 300 on the PC: -370 Pegasus grinds out one (or more) characters to 300 on the PC: +280

You spelled Rockets McDickface wrong. I didn't mind Valus Ta'aurc being the bullet sponge he was. It made sense looking at his armour, but he was nerfed hard so he had less armour than a glorified zombie. And now we have Thaviks who shows Valus Ta'aurc how to be a more annoying bullet sponge boss. I bet plenty of players didn't think that would be possible. Thavicks. I was trying to complete the Sturm? quest last night. Somehow during the quest, I kept progressing and ended up at some final stage against the Thavicks monster by myself. I didn't think anything of it. It's a quest/mission while solo, they are all pretty easy, just time grinding. So there I went, starting the final stage. An hour later I was foaming mad after continually dying over and over. What a bullet sponge. Made worse since no heavy ammo's ever drop in that stage, so I was forced to beat him down with just my guns. I got him down to 1/4 health twice, but both times I ended up dying from flanking ads. How did this mission get snuck into the solo stuff? It was harder than the raid.

I am really going to make you mad here, but the thing you have to do for sturm is kill the servitor BEFORE the boss area. In the dark jumpy part. That is it.
Didn't realize either the first time we ran it.

I wasn't mad, just completely relieved to be able to stop banging my head on the wall with that boss encounter.

I will take any opportunity to drag this video back out:
