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...

The Day of the Dusters

Jun 23, 2013

Today I broke down and bought the Troublemaker Duster for my Smuggler in SWTOR. I had been eyeing it for a while and the price finally came down from the "hell no!" range into the "okay, this is excessive for vanity but I'll get it anyway" price range. I've been...

When Games Go Free To Play, How Do Existing Subscribers Feel?

Jun 18, 2013

I have been thinking about how different I feel as a subscriber of two games that have both gone to a Free to Play model after their initial releases as subscription games. The way I feel as a customer is very different between Star Wars: The Old Republic and Rift. In...

Is This Thing On?

May 31, 2013

Oh hey there. Look at what I found in my browser favorites list, the link to my blog dashboard. I have been highly unmotivated to spend time on this thing lately haven't I? With summer and way too many games on my docket, I don't see that changing much. But I took a...

A Few Defiance Tips From A Newbie

Apr 13, 2013

I made time today to play Defiance so I could do the episode quest line before the premier. It was a fun chain of quests, I certainly recommend it. Here are a few of my lessons learned. Tactics matter: If you are grouped, use flanking and draw fire off each other,...

So Much To Do, So Little Time

Apr 12, 2013

I'm suffering from a wealth of riches where my online gaming experiences are concerned, but the choices are too rich for me to handle. I really want to spend more time playing Defiance, especially to see how the game and the T.V. series come together with its premier....

Trying Out an MMOFPS – Defiance

Apr 5, 2013

I've only briefly dipped into Defiance's full release game so far, but I figured I'd at least share some initial info. Getting screen shots is a bit challenging so far, especially with not being able to pan my view around like I'm used to, but hopefully they'll figure...

Blog Neglect

Jan 28, 2013

Yes folks, I've been guilty of blog neglect. This isn't more than a fluff piece, hello to you all, screen cap, quick update toss up though, sorry. I've been playing SWTOR and Rift a lot lately. My husband and I finished up the Bounty Hunter story quests with levels to...

Happy One Year Anniversary Star Wars: The Old Republic!

Dec 20, 2012

I wanted a really iconic location for setting off my celebratory fireworks, so what else should I do but head to Tatooine and jump into a Sarlaac pit?! Congratulations on your first MMO year Bioware. Hoping to wish you many more of these, looking forward to what you...

What Can You Do In Rift Dimensions?

Nov 4, 2012

A few people have asked me about dimensions so I figured I'd pull a few screen captures together with a bit of explanatory text. I have a few complaints about the controls, but it has been pretty easy to be creative. You get a free small starter dimension from a...
