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...

Modable Outfits in SWTOR

Jan 26, 2012

I love being able to keep a certain look for my smuggler in Star Wars The Old Republic, but have the chance to update my stats as I gain levels. Khaalo has been wearing the same Han Solo like vest and collared shirt for most of her adventures so far. Recently, I got a...

Stowaways

Jan 8, 2012

I'm used to getting stowaways from playing KOTOR, but generally they hide in secret cabinets and my food mysteriously disappears. Having someone lurking in my med bay who refuses to speak is a bit odd. Who is this strange passenger? Is my freighter haunted?

Ship Sweet Home

Dec 21, 2011

I've been posting images of characters, but I've neglected to post the most important character of all to a smuggler, her ship. I think I'll call her Betrayer's Bane and hope she lives up to her name. I love that you get rested XP while on board. I find it interesting...

A Little Launch “Poetry”

Dec 19, 2011

'Twas the night before TOR Launch, and all through our houses Our computers were whirring, we were clicking our mouses Our companions were nestled all tight in our ships While visions of starscapes streamed by in fast blips With my smuggler in her kerchief, husband's...

Early SWTOR Client

Dec 15, 2011

The good: Star Wars: The Old Republic is really playable right out of the gate. It is highly complex, running a lot of terrain and NPCs and cinematics, and doing it quite well. Lag has been very low and the longest Q time I've had was only 10 minutes. I am enjoying...

My New Adventure Begins

Dec 14, 2011

I can't talk a lot about my character without giving away spoilers of her story. Soon everyone will have their own tales of adventure, but for now I won't go into the details. I avoided as many of the spoilers as I could where the Smuggler was concerned. I didn't beta...

It Is Getting Real

Dec 12, 2011

Anticipation is palpable, people are twitchy, guild server tweets are starting to show up, new game excitement is running wild! Really hoping our new MMO home will be a blast. Considering the nod to Mass Effect, how could you not love a server name of The Harbinger?!...

Star Wars: The Old Republic’s Inspiring Music

Dec 1, 2011

On Facebook today, SWTOR announced that they will be releasing a new music track each day until launch. Today is The Mandalorian Blockade. You really should give it a listen. Some of it will sound familiar, we've heard portions of the score in various game videos. I...

Ships and Ship Combat and SWTOR Oh My!

Nov 28, 2011

I know one of my big goals from this weekend's large scale beta test was to get far enough along in my story to get my class ship. My soldier got her ship, after a class story quest chain arc, at level 15. The story arc was fun. There were plenty of side quest options...
