I know PoE2 is coming to the Switch, I hope PoE ends up there at some point too as I'd like to play them both on the same system and carry my characters over.

There are a few things from PoE1 that you can't create with the save generator but that PoE2 still recognizes. For example, (PoE1 spoilers) there's at least one time when you can bring up your Watcher's past life in a dialogue choice that seems to reflect the decisions you made about that past life in PoE1, and there's nothing in the world state generator thing about that at all.

It's a really minor thing but there might be other instances.

BL is harder than novice DDPR but you can keep it more manageable by keeping your rank lower

I'm playing regular 1.5 but i assume the same is true. 1.5 seems better for playing super casually which is what I want rn but I mean, it's not like I have to pick one. I'll try to check out BL more too.
re: Colonel it's funny to me how every time dynamic difficulty comes up in mainstream videogames (seems to be on like a 5 year press cycle) it's talked about as this crazy new and innovative thing but it's been in since the first shmups, just mainly as a mechanic to make the game harder.

It's often objectively unfair to the work and its creator(s), but when the bad aspects of a fandom are vocal and nigh-omnipresent online, at least for its time of peak popularity, it's understandable that it might influence you. Especially if they're the types to browbeat over mild criticism or mistakes.

The best first date is playing a fighter you're really good at and kicking their rear end.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Play Overcooked and yell when they don't remember the controls or completely chop up food or take a pot off the burner or wash dishes or look at the incoming orders or finish a mission with only one star or prevent your character from getting to the impossibly critical food thing you are trying to get to.
