Everyone do yourself a favor and don't EVER try playing Diablo 2 or any other long-term quest-style game while 3 sheets to the wind! I came home the other night after several India Pale Ales and tried to resume my Level 21 Barbarian's quest. Doh!
After 2 deaths (I nearly always just save and exit when I die because it is impractical to go back for my corpse lightly armed even when sober!) I somehow lost my Superior Bone Shield, and now I am unable to buy anything nearly as good. I usually use two swords at once with no shield anyway, but it was really nice to have for times in which I wanted to use a thrown weapon while still having the protection of a shield. I guess I should stick to Counter-Strike for post-party situations - there I might embarass myself but there is no risk of losing significant amounts of game progress.
