What a nightmare! What a lucid nightmare this mount was to obtain. Thank goodness for friends that hold my hand, walk me through it, and tell me it’ll all be ok. Without them, i don’t think i would have had the drive to go through the steps required to obtain my newest mount. In all honesty, it really wasn’t that

Over the course of the last few years i’ve come to realize i keep falling back to the same game. GW2 has become my go-to MMO when i’m either bored of my main game or if i’m just looking to do some world exploration and fumble about. To be fair, i’m not quite sure if i even have a main

Many of my posts that fell victim to my lax hosting upkeep were mount drop related. Between 40 to 50 posts to be precise went poof over the course of the year. I’m actually not very concerned about trying to recover or even remake them from memory. Instead i think i’ll just jump forward and start anew! I may even

There’s something very ironic about upgrading a system and migrating to self hosting, only to stop playing shortly after and taking advantage of neither. That’s exactly what happened to me almost two years ago now. I saw no reason to continue paying for something i was no longer using so i let my site get deleted. Unfortunately that now means

Well would you look at that! It’s been nearly two years since my last blog post and counting. I’ll continue to act surprised despite knowing full well i’ve been on quite a long hiatus from not only my site, but gaming in general. A lot has happened in those two years as well as not a lot to be honest.

No, this isn’t a mashup of the genre i love and some Parliament Funkadelic tossed in. As amazing and groovy as that would be, this isn’t that. This is about the ridiculously long rut i’ve been in as far as MMORPG’s go. It’s a good thing i have this blog to remind me, otherwise i’d have no idea that it’s

I often get asked what i want from an MMO, or what i look for in one. This isn’t a difficult question for me because i know exactly what i want. What tends to be the difficult part is the reactions and subsequent arguments discussions my response seems to elicit. I’m usually met with “that’s not what you want” or

It’s been quite a while since my last mount conquest. Luck has zero to do with it this time fortunately. It had everything to do with not logging into WoW for the better part of three months now. What dragged me back this time? It certainly wasn’t the actual game or some gameplay related feature that’s for sure. No, it

In typical me fashion, i ended up missing the first ever Pantheon pre-alpha gameplay stream on Friday evening due to working late. I still could have watched it live but would have been unable to participate in the discussion and ask all the questions that i had. I decided to wait until i got home and watch the recording instead.

For the first time in a really long time, i’ve been without an MMO for over a month. It’s actually been pretty crazy and not as full of withdrawal as i’d imagined it would be. I was sure that after a few days i’d have been craving another fix, but i’ve been pretty calm about my hiatus from online

In a very nice surprise, Black Desert Online released a stand alone character creator here. Not only does it appear to be free for anyone to download and try, but characters created can be saved for when the game actually launches later down the road. The tool comes in at just a bit over 6GB is size so keep

The first ever trailer released for Blade & Soul came way back in 2009. Let that sink in for a second. That was over six years ago. The way i put that in prospective for myself is that i was still playing Final Fantasy XI back then. For me that was forever and a while ago. An eternity as far
