Possible Baldur’s Gate 3 spoilers below.

08:05 # Yesterday I switched from Balanced difficulty back to Tactician difficulty. The fights on Balanced difficulty are still interesting, but I never really felt like I might lose, and without any fear of losing a fight, there’s not much fun in winning a fight. I lost all my emotional investment, and they turned into time-consuming rote exercises. #baldursgate3

22:04 # Baldur’s Gate 3. I fear I may have run out of XP-generating loose ends before I have to go back to the Gauntlet of Shar and the Shadowfell, still well short of level 8. There aren’t a lot of grinding-for-XP options in BG3. Tonight I’ve been finishing off every living thing in the Githyanki Creche after collecting the Blood of Lathander. Oh wait, the Tollhouse. Haven’t been there yet. #baldursgate3
