  • Star Trek Online Season 3 First Impressions

    I started a new character in Star Trek Online to see what the Season 3 update is all about. So far, when just starting out, the changes are just cosmetic. Sector space looks a lot better and less cartoonish. I think the developers wanted to make things look more cinematic, so there are small touches…

  • Star Trek Online Captain’s Status Update

    I finished the last of the Breen/Deferi/Preserver weekly episodes. It was pretty good and had not the worst plot of the game. I think if Cryptic can keep these up, it’ll be a great addition to the game. I also really made Vice Admiral. Before, when I maxed out the skill points, I wasn’t a…

  • Star Trek Online Skill Cap

    My Science Officer Admiral has maxed out the level cap in Star Trek Online, which means he won’t advance in rank any more, but it also means he doesn’t earn skill points. Now if he were already maxed out in skills, that would be fine, but he’s not even close to being maxed in all…

  • Star Trek Online Weekly and Daily Missions

    I’m really enjoying Star Trek Online’s Weekly and Daily missions dealing with the Deferi and the Breen. The Breen ships are quite a challenge, and they’re nearly as tough as the Borg on the ground. So far, the plot is moving slowly, but it has a lot of potential. Most of the missions can be…

  • Star Trek Online Battle

    In this Star Trek Online battle, my ship, the USS Ampere, is protecting a damaged ship from waves of alien attacks. Since my ship is a science vessel, it doesn’t have very powerful weapons, but does have good shields, so my hull is well protected. You can see that the battle is generally turning and…

  • Star Trek Online Sector Map Navigation

    This video shows sector map navigation in Star Trek Online. My ship, the USS Ampere, is in the galactic map sort of near DS9 and Bajor. I turn around an enter the Rolor Nebula, an area with randomly generated missions that you can repeat over and over again (and must if you want to rise…

  • New Star Trek Online Content

    The folks that run Star Trek Online are doing their best to keep us from becoming bored and to draw gamers in. Now they have added some new weekly episodes, plus some daily repeatable missions that involve fighting the Breen. On the ground, the Breen use freeze grenades and things to slow or freeze you,…

  • Star Trek Online

    A game that I’ve been playing on and off for a few months is Star Trek Online. Because it is Star Trek, I signed on early, during the beta period, and even bought a lifetime subscription. Even back then, the space combat was quite good, though it is only partially 3-axis. Remember that these are…

  • My current games: Started Final Fantasy XIII-2, Stopped DDO, Playing STO

    My gaming life has been fairly hectic recently because of work and real-life issues (don’t you hate it when those get in the way?). So this will be a brief update on my meager gaming recently. At the urging of a friend, I started playing Dungeons and Dragons Online. It’s a fairly neat game, and…

  • Enjoying Lord of the Rings Online

    I’ve been playing LOTRO when I get a little while between being busy with other things, and I’m enjoying it (mostly). The crafting system is pretty nifty and I’m working my way up as a prospector, cook, and jeweler. I also finally managed to buy a horse. In order to get said horse, I had…
