A Free and open source 3d creation suite and video editor.
3d editing: Said to be very difficult to use, and it is. There is an argument that in mastering it one gains a huge set of capabilities with one tool. I was unable to get that far.
Video editing: Defaults are stupid and features are missing. Maybe it’ll be passable in a few years.
It has a portable zip, with no install required. Yay!
SketchUp Make is the free SketchUp version.
So simple it’s actually difficult to use.
I had good experiences with this editor in the distant past.
I generally use GIMP.

A top-down hack-and-slash game based on the Gauntlet franchise but with different controls, abilities and general gameplay.
This seemed like a good idea at the time, but turned out to be a pretty shitty experience. Not recommended.

Oh hell, it opens with an unskippable playable cutscene. Intolerable.

I’ve played this exact same thing as a free flash game. Except the controls were a hell of a lot better with that one.

Well. I had heard good things about this game, and since it was on sale I thought I’d pick it up.
I regret it.

All the Earth is in peril, but everyday people have been given super powers.. except half of them become villains, for some reason.
The interface and controls weren’t pleasant for me. Probably the biggest nuisance was not having set a colour scheme on my chest because I made myself bare-chested.

SSH being enabled is also known as having “shell access” enabled. It’s generally considered a risk for various reasons, most notably because runaway processes can be an issue.

A fixed-angle-view roguelike.
My general conclusion is that it’s a good game, but doesn’t have enough variety of abilities.
Path of Exile – (2013 game) is better in terms of difficulty, complexity and player-immersion. In fact, Diablo 3 has been copying features straight from Path of Exile. Doing things badly, but, still, obviously copying.
Properly titled Diablo III
