Let’s Do the Time Warp Again

Time Keeps on Slipping...It is a bit shocking to realize that I didn't blog at all in 2024. How did I let an entire year go by without writing anything at all?! Life Goes OnHave a cute dog pic as an apology No, I didn't spend my year curled up on a blanket, although...

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...

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...

How a Different Origin Story Can Change the Feel of a Game

Nov 13, 2011

I've been killing time lately waiting for 12/20/2011 (or 12/15/2011), playing various single player RPGs, replaying a few, and being uninspired by any current MMOs. I've already played Mass Effect 1 and 2 as both a female and male Shepard, one heavily on the paragon...

Why Patches and Expansions Won’t Lure Me Back

Oct 26, 2011

(Warning: This has turned into a pretty long rant fest. The thoughts and ideas have been rolling around in my brain for a while. Blizzcon announcements and a recent Twitter conversation with @Thephauxden shook them loose to run amok on my blog.) The first MMO I ever...

Geek Just Another Name for Awesome

Oct 18, 2011

Today's idea started with an anguished Facebook post from a friend. Her son was getting teased by kids at school for being a nerd and she was really mad. A kid he had been friends with the prior year had turned on him and the betrayal was very hard on her son. I could...

Love the Shiny New Galaxy Map

Sep 30, 2011

I've been scoping out the Star Wars: The Old Republic's Holonet for a while now, waiting for the unveiling of the final mystery box. Today I got my wish when SWTOR rolled out their new 3-D Galaxy Map. A quick 3rd party plug-in install later, a few blips as planet...

I’ll Just Leave This Little Release Date Screencap Here

Sep 24, 2011

I know this won't be news to anyone, but how could I be a major gaming fan and not blog about it anyway?! Twitter has been quite fun this morning. I'll just leave this little gem from my email here.

Why Smugglers Are So Cool

Sep 15, 2011

We can thank Han Solo for being such a wonderful inspiration for an iconic class in Star Wars: The Old Republic. That scruffy-looking, nerf-herding scoundrel is the reason why the first class I am going to play in SWTOR is going to be so much fun. I just know I'm...

Is Bioware Suffering from Stage Fright?

Sep 13, 2011

Pre-Orders over 400,000 Like many MMO gamers I know, I am anxiously awaiting the release of Star Wars: The Old Republic. And like many, I have pre-ordered a copy of the game even though an official release date has not yet been announced. So many of us are interested...

Hats Off to Prolific Bloggers

Sep 2, 2011

I wanted to write something profound, but I realized that waiting for inspiration on what to talk about was keeping me from posting at all. I think the longer one goes not writing, the easier it becomes to just ignore the blog. I have to salute those bloggers who...
