Brad, I’m Sorry.

Posted on November 21, 2019 by Isey

Of course I am days behind on the breaking news that Brad McQuaid has died. And I feel loathe to even link to my posts about him here in the past. But I will. Here is when he suddenly returned and I called him out for shenanigans and past issues – fairly or unfairly at…

Movies are NOT Real Life

Posted on November 15, 2019 by Isey

Either are video games. I have noticed this has been a challenge for some progressive reviewers of movies recently. That is too broad of a statement. Let me rephrase. This is the challenge with progressives as reviewers who can’t divorce make believe from reality. Society seems to already be struggling with facts vs feelings but…

An Everquest Adventure

Posted on November 8, 2019November 13, 2019 by Isey

Keep in mind this is on a time locked emulator, Project 1999. I made a new friend as only you can in EQ. I had some time before work and logged in to find the Ancient Cyclops camp open. I’ve been making tens of thousands here. With people leaving Blue for Green (and Teal), the…

Convenient Anger

Posted on October 9, 2019February 23, 2022 by Isey

Look, I get why people are mad at Blizzard and I had lower expectations than them a long time ago, so not surprised by what they did. I also don’t play any of their games right now anyway, so I can’t boycott my non playing, I prefer to play online games, here you can discover…

On Community

Posted on August 6, 2019 by Isey

I am away for the first two weeks of every August. I go back to my home town to teach at a hockey camp. We rent a cottage, generally have crappy wifi, and spend mornings and early afternoons at the rink and late afternoons and evenings on the lake. I grew up in beautiful Cottage…

Ding! Level 50 – 20 years later

Posted on July 22, 2019 by Isey

My Enchanter hit level 50 on the weekend and it felt like an accomplishment. Which, of course, sounds completely ridiculous to say out loud. Or type out loud. Whatever, you get it. It is only the second character I have ever topped 50 with in any iteration of EQ. The other being my 55 Troll…

I Buy IHASPC

Posted on May 16, 2019May 16, 2019 by Isey

I get odd requests here and there to put linkable infographics, promote products, etc. Of course I never do that (unless I actually like and use the product, and even then I don’t respond to the request I just continue on my merry way. This one was interesting to me – because I had made…

I HAS PC : Orange is the New Black

Posted on March 7, 2019March 6, 2019 by Isey

It’s been a long time and there are some things about my site that I liked, and some that I didn’t. LIKED: My Sidebar. Especially the Blogroll. DISLIKED: Images were base SO small, due to the size of the sidebar LIKED: Orange. It’s not even my favourite color or anything, but the blog has had…

2018 I HAS REVIEW – Q4

Posted on January 16, 2019January 16, 2019 by Isey

October 2018 Posts: 3 (Really? Just 3?) Games: Magic The Gathering: Arena Other Media: October was my second lightest posting month and 3 in a month (along with the couple 5s I had earlier in the year) shows my inability to post consistently. Blogging is one of those things I love when I feel like…

I Win at RNG

Posted on March 16, 2015April 10, 2017 by Isey

I think most gamers have a love AND hate relationship when it comes to Random Number Generators.  The entire MMO genre is built upon RNG and I remember the old camping structures in EQ where you could spend hours, days, or weeks waiting for a specific mob and/or specific drop. We are largely playing large…

The Grove at World’s End

Posted on March 5, 2015April 10, 2017 by Isey

Leonard Nimoy died on the weekend. I have fond memories of his art through TV, Movies, and games and many others have and will memorialize him much better than I ever could. I read his last tweet as I was following his passing and I found it absolutely beautiful – words to remember, and that is…

River – High Latency Life

Posted on June 11, 2014June 11, 2014 by Isey

I am shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden passing of one of our community members – Chris “River” Cavelle. Rivs authored High Latency Life and I personally thoroughly enjoyed interacting with him. I read him weekly and participated on his blog (and he here sometimes too.) He had an engaging style of blogging…
