2012 Gaming Year In Review – Part 2

Part two of this little series should be a bit smaller in your feed, mainly because I don’t remember exactly why I played some of these games, or how enough hours/achievements were logged in Raptr to qualify for whatever metric “Experienced” falls under. Regardless, here’s another 10 of the 30 games I played long enough…

First Look At My D&D Campaign

Dungeons and Dragons! Or at least, that’s how I’ll always recall the good old days. Holy crap that MP3 is almost old enough to buy cigarettes and I’ve been playing this game for far too long. Other things to establish, I’m firmly in the camp of Old School Roleplaying when it comes to the editions. Everything…

Two-On-Tuesday

It’s that day that I generally forgo a normal blog post and give some props out to a pair of posts in the blogging community. I mean, it’s been a week right? I’ve got to have at least two blog posts that I’ve read which have blown my mind at least a little bit. This…

2012 Gaming Year In Review – Part 1

Now Raptr isn’t the perfect method for tracking all of your gaming. There isn’t nearly enough statistical data presented to really get interesting, but it’s nice that it’s always-on and runs as a service so you don’t really need to remember starting it up before kicking out a gaming session. I kind of wish Raptr…

New Years, New Home

With a new year on the horizon, and a couple days behind me already (starting late, that sounds right) it seems like as good a time as any to start doing more than just Twitter again. This old blog has been moved to a new foundation, and I have the most excellent admin over at…

I’ve been busy

Wow, look at that. Two months really fly by quick. I’ve been neglecting this blog something fierce, so I figure a short update is in order. I’m not planning on making a concentrated effort to start blogging again anytime soon. It’s on the back burner as far as my priorities go with life, and there’s…

Conquistadors of Telara

  Hail Telarans! I’ve had some Conquest matches under my belt now. The battlefields are littered with the bodies of my corpse as I’ve respawned over and over again. Aye, the PvP in the game has not changed, at least, not from my view. Now there’s simply more people to zerg into balls of death…

Good Ol’ MMO Wanderlust

Not just MMO’s either, but gaming in general. I’ve been in that weird state inbetween games where the one you’re playing is doing just fine, but there’s something else out there. Calling like a distant song floating in on the wind over hills of supposedly greener grasses. It’s all very Dutch in visualization which makes…

Without A Soul… Train

 I’ve noticed a common complaint of people recently returning to Rift is that the game is nice, and polished, and has everything they can think of, but it’s missing something. They can’t tell you what that something is specifically, so it’s just referred to as the soul of the game (the irony is not lost…

68 Links of Love

About two weeks ago I had a post about how I set up and maintain my blog roll. Now that it’s been a while since the NBI finally ended I’ve been able to look comprehensively at who was sticking around in the NBI, who I wanted to follow that generally met my guidelines, and where…
