Delving into Otome
Otome in the Social Sphere I started listening to a new podcast, called Heroines of the Cherry Blossom (or CBHeroines), mainly because I enjoy the ladies on it, and not really knowing much about it. I soon learned that it covers the otome genre, which is something I’ve been interested in ever since playing through Hatoful Boyfriend. I’ve learned a lot from Pizza‘s and Sushi‘s podcast, and chatting with them on Twitter, and you should check them out! In fact, in their latest podcast, they talked a bit about Hatoful Boyfriend. We had gotten into a discussion on Twitter, and Sushi asked me why I enjoyed the game so much.…

Friendships in Gaming
In Remembrance The past three years, December 5th has been a bit of a tough day. One of the people I hold in the highest esteem from my days in EVE Online passed away due to cancer, and his birthday is always a tough day (granted, it doesn’t help when Facebook goes “HEY! Wish your friend a Happy Birthday!”). We knew he was sick, and going in for surgery for unrelated issues, and we knew he had cancer, but it grabbed him hard and fast without much time for treatment. Thulle was one of those guys who is gruff and off-putting at first encounter. An asshole, if you will. But…

Thoughts, IT folks? pic.twitter.com/7EDJkOpn7F — Chestnut’s Roasting (@ggchestnut) November 19, 2015 #IntPiPoMo 33/50 (Hey, I took the screenshot! :P) Chaide and I have been searching as to how to beef up our computers. Not too long ago, I posted on Twitter asking for advice, as well as within a group of friends whose opinions I regard highly.

Hell Hath Come
Hell Raised This post is a part of #IntPiPoMo! You can find out more, and sign up at this link. A few Fridays ago, Chaide, Cam, and I decided that we wanted to get a Hell run together in The Secret World… finally! I vaguely recall running it before back when we had originally played, because I remembered a few boss mechanics. We grabbed Moon (whom you’ll meet later in videos as I get them uploaded… which I should do soon!), and one of our FFXIV FC-mates who gladly came along for the ride. Overall, the dungeon was a lot of fun! We’re confused why some of our lore is missing,…

Steam Challenge: Hatoful Boyfriend
The Steam Challenge This post is a part of #IntPiPoMo! You can find out more, and sign up at this link. For those of you who haven’t heard about this “Steam Challenge” thing, here’s the TL;DR. Yup. That pretty much sums it up. Now, I definitely don’t have as many games as some other folks do hiding away in Steam, but I do have a lot that are downloaded and half-played. But I have the tendency to download new ones without ever getting rid of the old ones. #IntPiPoMo 7/50 So I’m changing the Steam Challenge for my own personal use: Beat a downloaded game before downloading another. And “beat” could…
