Gaming Into the End of 2023

My pace of blog posts has certainly slowed toward the end of this year. I've been playing games, just nothing that inspires tips and tricks posts, or exciting experiences to talk about. As we end the year, I thought I'd at least wrap up with a few thoughts about what...

Starfield is Just a Good Not Great Game

Starfield is a pretty good game and one I can enjoy, but it is ONLY a pretty good game. It has missed the mark of being a great game. I came to the realization that they structured the game expecting us to play it again on a New Game plus mode, but I don't think I'll...

Starfield Tip Assigning Crew to Outposts

I'm writing a quick post to provide a tip on how to assign a crew member to an outpost in Starfield. Let's say you recruit a crew member who has the Outpost Management skill, so you build an outpost so she has something to manage. Here is what I had to do in order to...

Oddly Discontented the Starfield Edition

I took a walk around the first nice city we get to in Starfield last night. It is quite pretty at night and it was a peaceful walk. I talked to a few people, did some shopping, looked around the Lodge and then I just signed out of the game... I stared at my library...

Looking Forward Beyond Blaugust

Today I am using one of the Blaugust prompts to not only plan ahead for my blog writing, but to talk about an upcoming game. The prompt is "What are you looking forward to the most over the course of the next year?" I have a hard time coming up with "the most" for any...

Wrapping up Blaugust 2023 With Lessons Learned and Achievements

The final week of Blaugust is reserved for talking about lessons learned - a week that acts as a bit of a cool down so that we can share our own experiences with this year's blogging. While I haven't earned every achievement on the list, I'm happy that I met my...

Spending Some Quality Double XP (and Agent) Time

Feb 13, 2015

Since my hubby and I celebrate "Rebel's Valentine's Day" in March, rather than this trumped up love day in February, I'm free to spend some time in SWTOR gaining double XP this weekend. I still miss the heady days of 12 times XP, but I'll take what I can get for one...

Cool Mount/Vehicles and Motivation

Feb 10, 2015

Well, if there is one thing that will motivate me to repeat daily quests, it is a spiffy ride. This has been true since the days of my Long Strange Trip in WoW. The Imperial Walker mounts in SWTOR certainly qualify for that category. The fact that I can get one for...

New SWTOR Class Specific Quests in 3.0 – Spoiler Free Reactions

Dec 24, 2014

Finally got one of every class far enough in the new content to see the side quests that were unique to each class. It was nice of them to put together such a highly requested bit of content, but it was just that, a tiny bite. They brought several of the voice actors...

Has It Really Been 3 Years?

Dec 20, 2014

I can never remember the official release day of games these days, what with pre-orders and early access play... but folks are saying today is the 3 year anniversary for SWTOR. So I set off my fireworks and stared into the sands of Tatooine, kicked a smuggler or two,...

SWTOR: Why Have My Companions Turned Into Dress Up Dolls?

Dec 19, 2014

I've had a chance to get a couple of characters to level 60 in the newest Star Wars: The Old Republic expansion, seen their short class quests and one for the Imperial Agent, and started the slog through the Forged Alliances flashpoints, yet again, on my Jedi Knight....

Dragon Age Inquisition: Save Your Sad Splinters

Dec 8, 2014

You get a few items in your "valuables" in DA:I that are a bit odd (red border). I finally found a use for one of those, the "Sad Splinters" you pick up when you assault a keep and break down the front door. I still haven't figured out a use for the "Too Many...

No More Words Left

Nov 30, 2014

I'm going to let this picture say it for me because I'm pretty much done with trying to string together words that make sense, at least for a few days...

Leave the Hinterlands, Seriously!

Nov 26, 2014

So, as I suspected, Dragon Age: Inquisition has absorbed all of my free time. Sadly, there has been less of that free time than I'd have preferred, but I've had several projects hit me at the same time DAI did... I spent a lot time gathering shards to open doors in an...
