So I've been practicing Zen meditation now for 7 years and have gotten to the point where nothing can die without negatively affecting me. My average day is running something like -30BB/100 as science. I've gotten so far into it with Thai masters that literally nothing can wrong in the universe without it making my life more challenging. It's impossible to turn a blind eye to anything. I've been in such bad straits for so long now that the Chinese have literally sent Shaolin to my town to instruct me in "not being so bad".
But what I've learned from this is that even if you can have a 10:1 KDA average in DotA2 and not be able to get above 800 MMR (without overdosing on drugs), real life is surprisingly easy. The last time I overdosed on drugs I did die or something and ascend into heaven and was above 800 MMR but was reset when I was res'd by the Shaolin, and am below 700 MMR again.
But living a healthy IRL is really easy. Sure to be GM in anything takes work and practice, talent and motivation, and so on. But even high Diamond league SC2 equivalent is well than more than enough to live a super healthy life.
Probably 50-100 hours of knowledge and 1000-2000 hours of practice can make us super healthy individuals with just aerobic and anaerobic training. It's ultimately cheaper and possibly easier to eat healthy, get plenty of rest, and then train for an hour or two five days a week.
Interesting almost every Starcraft player, DotA player, etc. ever has put in 50-100 hours of knowledge and 1000-2000 of practice, which would be like the equivalent of high GM in most health concerns.
So it seems like high diamond Starcraft II or DotA 2000~3000 MMR is more than enough to be a hometown high GM or national mid GM in fitness. Of course I've also done karate, and I think most people would be satisfied with a black belt, which probably does not take more than 500 hours maximum (unless you are really hardcore). I don't know how much time I really put into my black belt in TKD but I think it was probably not as much as 2k hours.
But I've got 2k hours on my dota account, and am still < 700 MMR, which shows that dota is really hard compared to IRL.
But yeah, my IRL human is doing pretty well. I've written a book at around ~70k words somewhat unedited, created a video game at probably an hour or so playable time, but quite sophisticated.
My IRL human has recovered from schizophrenia, psychosis, anxiety, phobias, different health concerns and is almost completely grade A again except for a pinched nerve in the neck.
But what I've noticed is Diablo has failed us. Whether you're blind or not, high level Starcraft is accessible to you. Whether you're psychologically inept or not, mathematical poker still beats microstakes, whether you have bad luck or not, you can succeed in most games of luck, possibly even become infinite in hearthstone with practice.
But it seems Diablo is truly the most difficult game of all time. I cannot find any other way to power up in Diablo other than patience and grinding and running rifts. Since I am running -30BB/100 or so in all things thanks to the years of zazen, I cannot seem to find items, power up my character with sets, or anything like that. I always roll the wrong sets, wrong characters for seasonal items, wrong uniques, wrong ancients, legendaries, sets, and so on.
Despite it being my ultimate and final goal of all time, it seems I just cannot get on the top of the Diablo III ladder, and it proves to me this is the most difficult thing ever.

LOOOOOL
online bob is actually a pretty smart person, not at all like the creepy fucker that sits in the sofa telling me he does nasty shit to me when im asleep - pinball
You'll run better or you won't. I feel the obsession. Cereal every now and then zoned in on the task at hand. I envy you and pity you. I want to be you but I never want to go back to crack. Best of luck on your travels. There is no worthwhile balance or moderation suggestion whatsoever. Get engrossed. Feel it. Dream it. Smell it. Breathe it and then fuck it. Fuck it in the asshole. Feel the warmth. The warmth of hell. Diablo is your bitch. Make it your home.

Diablo 2 has actually been hacked. There are players with very few minutes played who are already at level 98 with hellstone.

Like honestly, if you had to get my best answer, it would be that human history is shaped by "smoke and chill". Like I know Baal is all into economics and stuff, but I am too, since I have several degrees in economics. And frankly, if you look at evolved human history, the way to see it is"smoke and chill".
But riddle me this. The Chinese were at smoke and chill way before the Hindus. but the hindus are the world's earliest religion, predating everything but the pyramids by thousands of years. but what about the mongolians and the chinese who had smoke and chill technology 8,000 or more years before the Hindus.
Realistically if everything is explained by smoke and chill there's a major missing segment of "smoke and chill" in China. It makes me think wizards of immense power actually destroyed a four dimensional earth to create our three dimensional Earth and that's what explains mexicans and why china is called "middle country". it's obviously a secret message about the prehistoric properties of smoke and chill attributed to LttP dark world.

yeah man i feel like various psychotropic substances are portals to the legendary remains of elder domains from the land before time when all the civilizations were commemorated as aeons and blown to smithereens by a giant comet. so the dinosaurs were like gods of bygone eras who were incarnated in their living personas as giant herbivores and carnivores
