Why would I pay to unlock permadeath?

Maybe you can explain the possible benefit of paying for that.

Cuz if I wanted permadeath on a character enough that I would be willing to specifically pay for it per character, couldn't I just stop playing that character once I died? Making permadeath free.

It makes no sense.

Lol I'm a chemical engineer, I'm still probably doomed. I can't even make sense of a circuit diagram or how engines work. Well I know thermodynamically how engines work. But not mechanically or anything like that.

Starcraft yes, as first books retells first campaign from game and other are basically standalone stories.

As for Warcraft, I know there is lot of World of Warcraft books, not sure about them as I understand those would require good knowledge of WoW lore.

But as for the Knaak books especially War of the ancients trilogy is basically standalone story and provides good introduction to all characters without knowing their lore before.

Trap to avoid: Elden Ring.

The load times are atrocious, over 20 seconds, which does not work well in a game where you die all the time.

If you’re interested, hold off until you get a current-gen device.

My rarest platinum is The Last Of Us remastered. It’s definitely so rare because of the online multiplayer and NG+ trophies, but it was never a boring grind to do these things for me.

The hardest platinum in my opinion was Bloodborne. I’ve platted most of the souls games but BB was the hardest because of the chalice dungeon bosses.

The longest grind I’ve ever done for a Platinum was Death Stranding Directors Cut. Popped the plat at about 170 hours and was kinda upset there was nothing left to do because I loved the game a lot.
