What Makes a Villain?
If you didn’t know by now, Murf is hosting a Screenshot Safari competition during the Newbie Blogger Initiative. I’m behind on entries, so there will be two this week, I’m sure. This one is based on the topic: Heroes or Villains. It was kind of a tough topic for me to come up with, quite honestly. In WildStar, who are the real villains? The big bad? The factions we fight against? It didn’t feel quite so clear-cut. Because the premise of the game is that we are discovering what the Eldan have left on Nexus. So does that make the Eldan the big bads, or their creation(s)? Lots of questions…

NBI Safari – Epic Achievement
If you didn’t already know, this month is the Newbie Blogger Initiative, and Murf over at Murf Vs. has posed a challenge to bloggers called the NBI Safari. What’s the Safari? Murf provided a few different topics, and wants to see screenshots from these topics (you can only choose four, mind) and why you think they embody the particular topics you choose. Last week, I didn’t do any blogging, and was pretty much offline because my mother was in town (expect a long post on last week’s shenanigans sometime today), so I’m playing a bit of catchup with the Safari this week. So, my first submission for the Safari this…

Drop 5 Shenanigans
So this past week in WildStar has been a lot of fun! Why, you ask? Drop 5 happened Tuesday!! Tuesday What was the first thing I did when Drop 5 happened? Well, went through my bags, bank, costumes, etc., but then just kind of putzed around Thayd. I’m one of those folks taht doesn’t like to do everything new the first day because (1) it’s a little overwhelming to try to absob all the changes at once and (2) there’s usually bugs no matter how thoroughly things are tested on a PTR. It’s the same with pretty much any game. I finally found the Cheese while working on challenges in…

Stop! Selfie Time!
Murf over at Murf Versus has posed a challenge as a part of the Newbie Blogger Initiative this year, called the Screenshot Safari: For my part in the NBI2015, I want to see your screenshots. Each week in May, I am challenging everyone to publish a post featuring a favorite screenshot and why that screenshot best fits a particular theme. You can choose freely from the list of themes, but please only submit one post per theme. Considering this is a weekly event, that means only four overall submissions are allowed, so make them count! One of the themes is “Selfie”. As many folks have already posted, I’m also going…

Yardcore Nexus | Episode 3 – Proxima Dust
My Yardcore Nexus series has been picked up at QueueTimes, and I’ve been brought on board there as a contributor!

True Detective
WildStar Week Ladies in front, boys in the back! (LtoR: Sheae, Doom Kitty, Myself, Positive, Camara) This past week was a busy week in WildStar. Tuesday night we ran Bay of Betrayal on the PTR again, and almost downed the last boss! We’re going to try again next week. I’m in the process of writing a post for my thoughts on the Drop 5 PTR, and I hope to be posting it soon (as it includes a fast-forwarded video of us running Bay of Betrayal). Friday was our “Normals Night” as I like to call it. We have a lot of 50s that run Veteran/high level content throughout the week,…

Faffing About
Last night Chaide and I got in a little bit of Final Fantasy, which I was very excited to do. Due to mainly a WildStar filled week, we don’t get much time for FFXIV or TSW as we would like. We have set aside some weekend time to TSW so long as our third (Camara) is online–but he’s had a very odd work schedule as of late with lots of travel, including some overseas, so we’ve been holding off on leveling without him. I did tell Chaide that I wanted to get into FFXIV more, especially while he’s working on things for school, so I’m hoping to get in and…

Veteran Dungeon Bonanza
Wine Tasting Last night Chaide and I went to my first ever wine tasting. It was Tuscany wines, and was a lot of fun. I am new to the world of wines, having always preferred various takes on Hard Ciders and hard liquors, particularly Whiskies. I found three that I liked, and we’re going to start a list of wines we’d like to purchase whenever we feel like wine, or have guests. As we’re also looking to start a family soon, I felt compelled to do some research on how/if pregnant women are even allowed to go to wine tastings. In today’s culture (at least in the USA) there’s so…
