Originally, I had a quick, abbreviated idea for going over the Path of Exile 2 ascendancy announcement. That turned out to be over and hour and a half of me 'being quick about it', so I went and did this instead! Much more concise, much more useful as well.
Basically, it's a 'How To' of making Path of Exile 2 choices during Early Access that are likely to help you/I keep our characters strong and our options open as we progress them. Every ascendancy seems strong, but many are much better suited to playing 'blind' than others, and blind is what we're all be enduring come the 6th!

Its been a grand blitz of Helldivers 2 goodness, but this is probably going to be the last regular video for a little, on account of Path of Exile arriving for its quarterly event to devour my soul. As a parting gift, heres probably one of our most successful Helldive endeavors, despite all of the stuff that just absolutely wanted us dead. From Terminids to game-breaking nonsense, we more or less ran into every sort of bug you could expect in this one... and then promptly squashed em.

Q+A:
Is this game expensive?
[Hell no! Its 40$ and brand new! With an industry standard for 60$ (rapidly becoming 70$) this game gets an A+ on the CB Value Scale.]
Why isnt the difficulty higher?
[Its on Helldive. It doesnt go higher.]
How often do you release these videos?
[Release schedule is a big unknown right now. Schedules havent allowed for consistent video releases, so theyll come when they can. Sorry =(.]
What happened to Path of Exile?
[TOMORROW!!!]
I like your commentary/essay videos better.
[If you actually feel this way, say so in the comments. Motivation for these is pretty low, but if people actually wanted them, I would certainly find it!]

![Helldive Difficulty, For the First Time!
We entered caring about finishing our first Helldive difficulty mission, but then we found six super samples... Helldivers 2 is a cruel mistress of a game, holding every moment of gameplay hostage with a need for cinematic struggle, and brother, we struggled.
Were in the endgame now! Everything leads to this, but the difficulty has peaked. Next stop: Malevelon Creek. Weve got a score to settle with them bots, and we havent really won it until weve managed Helldive against them as well, right?

There was going to be this neato switch in the middle of the video where it showed us in a higher difficulty, but streamlabs ate an entire audio track. An ENTIRE audio track. Helldivers 2 deserves better. I snuck a bit in to show it happened, though.
Honestly, like the new mission. Wish it had a better sample count for the duration (you can do better on Blitz, and even on Extermination for the time invested). The experience is alright though, and it pushes different playstyles, which is fantastic! Cant wait to see whats next, definitely not flying bugs, no-sir-ee!
Also, I apologize in advance for just... really anything you were subjected to from watching the video. We had a lot of sugar that day, what can I say?

[Its on Hard. We did it on Suicidal as well, and I left clips in, but the recording got pooped on and lost an audio track somehow.]
