Disappointing night in The Division. Going back to Witcher 3
I had a decidedly un-fun night in The Division, so I rage quit and went back to playing Witcher 3. The first problems were glitches, while the final straw was people. After being unable to get to Manhattan on Monday night due to Ubisoft’s servers being melted into puddles of goo, when I started the…

Getting towards endgame in Fallout 4 and I’m not exactly pleased
This post contains spoilers for Fallout 4, though because I haven’t finished the game, it doesn’t contain endgame spoilers. If you don’t want spoilers, go back to Twitter and read about Blade and Soul and its boob physics. I have been really enjoying Fallout 4, but I think I’m getting near the end. I’ve spent…

Enjoying the Heck out of Fallout 4
Since I last wrote, I played a lot of Destiny. I would even say too much Destiny, with the terrific Sparrow Racing League (getting all 3 characters a Class S license, but never getting any 320 gear), followed by Iron Banner where I got all 3 characters to rank 5. And that’s pretty much the…

Really enjoying Dragon Age: Inquisition; Not so much for Divinity: Original Sin
These two games with three-word names with colons in the middle are RPGs I bought last week on sale. both are set in fantasy worlds where you fight baddies using swords and magic. Both have a player character and companions to help the fight. Both have made up BS names for bad magic stuff, like…

Fretting about what games to play!
I have an odd problem, though probably not so unusual these days when people have Steam libraries that number in the hundreds of games as well as consoles full of PS+ and Games with Gold “freebies”: I can’t find a game that I want to play. I’m still playing Destiny more than is healthy, and…

Finally arrived at Dol Amroth in LOTRO
After a bit of questing in West Gondor, my Lore Master finally made it to the city of Dol Amroth in LOTRO. The city looks great with tremendous detailing on the stonework and the doors. Swans and statues of swans are present everywhere. The city has a number of districts, and you are given a…

Destiny is KILLING me!
Destiny has been out for a few weeks, and while the critics kind of hate it and the shine is wearing off because of all the grinding, it still has me in its clutches. Whereas LOTRO or Star Trek Online used to be my “comfort games,” now Destiny fills that role. I always felt like…

Finished Destiny’s Story Missions
I finished the “story missions” in Destiny last night after nearly 18 hours of play. So all the people that claimed the Destiny world is small (myself included in previous posts) are both right and wrong. It turns out that we only get a small region to explore on each of the game worlds (Earth,…

Glitches in the Destiny matrix
I played the first 4 missions of Destiny last night and enjoyed them, even though they were exactly like the beta, as far as I could tell. I got the slight impression that thing were a little harder than the beta, but that may just have been my lack of practice. But I did notice…

Fellow Guardians, I did buy Destiny for PS4
Despite my previous plans not to buy Destiny, I did pre-order it at the last hour, so now my PS4 surely has it all downloaded so I can play tonight. I didn’t succumb to the hype, but I bought it because some of my friends pre-ordered it, and I decided that if I wanted to…
