Picture this: a dimly lit room, a person (let’s call them Alex), and a decade-old Microsoft Surface Book 2. It’s like a scene from a B-movie where the hero realizes they might need to let go of their old, trusty sidekick. The laptop’s been good, but recently, it’s been giving off those “It’s not you,…

Embarrassment of Riches
I turn 50 this year. Already my neural synapses are starting to suck as I have a hard time remembering some of the most basic things – such as, some specific words I am looking for, or, a specific name of an acquaintance that I should know (but can’t instantly recall), and of course the…
Deep Rock Galactic – Chugging Along
Short post to give a shout out to what is likely the best class based Co-Op shooter with the most civilized player base. There was a post with stats released: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/548430/view/3640630403132894028 Safe to say, not bad for a small studio. It’s the type of title that many people rush to buy new DLC as it…
I’m Not DEAD yet!
Or putting myself in WRIP, quite yet. Although I probably should. I started taking online courses in my spare time, instead of writing, and working from home has been a drag. I have been hot and cold with gaming but work has extra responsibilities with this Pandemic, and when I get a spare hour I…
Happy Holidays BlogNation!
I know my posting schedule has nosedived but my love for the blogging community has not. The written word is important and I appreciate the content creators keeping it alive! Happy Holidays to all 🙂
Joker (2019)
I have made a few posts here fully mobile, and will link them when I get to a proper computer. I am drinking a beautiful, by a fire, smoking a Monte Cristo #5 while pretty sick. This has no bearing on this post. Except the mobile part. I just watched Joker. Obviously, no spoilers here.…
Nailed It! : Anthem
Courtesy of Paul Tassi, Forbes. Excuse me while I go pout on my Ancient Crocodile camp in Project 1999 for the past 4 levels (31-35) At least loot works there.
Slow Progress, Happy Birthday: Project 1999, Everquest
I was not going to post much about Everquest turning 20. I have written a few “Happy Birthday EQ” posts to EQ over the years, about one every 5 or so years. There isn’t much point in writing one every year because my personal story with the game hasn’t changed much. The gist, is this:…
Sad Ending : Telltale Games
I have really enjoyed several of their titles – especially the original Walking Dead series and The Wolf Among Us. The company is effectively shutting down after finishing off the latest Walking Dead game. Oddly enough, there isn’t a reason given that I have read. Mashable has a story up. It seemed like a successful…
“Work” Opportunity!
This is very relevant to Blaugust. Somehow, my team at work felt creating an awesome newsletter was the best way for us to communicate to our business network of ~350 separate business units. It’s good information but a bad platform. I’d like someone great with WordPress to spend some time converting 3 multi section newsletters…
Cup Runneth…
Over. Definitely Over. I’m a lucky person in pretty much all areas of my life – professional, personal and digital. It is never lost on me the need and suffering in the world. Still, there is much beauty and hope. You just have to believe. And act. In my online world here, at I HAS…
Best Game Trailer
I’ll just link it. I’ve never enjoyed one more.
Holidays! (Also a test)
I can’t access my site since the WordPress update but am attempting to post via my mobile device. Happy Holidays to everyone! A special thank you to people who read and participate here. I love being a part of Blognation. I’ll be up and running soon, I haven’t wanted to bother tech support (my friend…
Real Bloggers of Genius
First, to set the stage. We bloggers are a fun bunch – we chat about games, and life, and life in games, and gaming lives, and what not. We tweet about it, blog about, share on sites. We have a community. Often we complain – whine, bitch, moan, criticize – and why not? We love…
3:10 Train to Ledge (Tier 2)
I have a couple of paths I run in my normal “day to day” in EQN: Landmark. There is a sweet, sweet area I found ripe with multiple ores I require for progression, and a hidden forest which is needed for every tool and crafting station (in unfair abundance right now, although they are patching…
Libertarian
I am away from home for work which means no gaming for me (need laptop upgrade, stat) and as such am going to touch upon everyone’s favorite topic. Politics. Even more exciting, CANADIAN politics. Canada had it’s federal election and had an interesting outcome – the same as the last federal government – a minority government.…
Blogroll Updated!
I knows. Exciting! Basically anyone who commented here and had a blog link was added, as well as a few favorite sites I enjoy reading. If you would like to add your blog just let me know.
