Screenshot Saturday: Deshaan in ESO
There’s not much to say about this. I just liked the view. The citizens rebuilding their village while there’s something brewing in the distance. My templar is level 48 now, so she’s getting closer to max level. And so far, I don’t think the first thing I’ll want to do is switch to an alt…

Screenshot Saturday: Level 46 in ESO
I’m slowly making my way to level 50 – which will lead towards the CP grind, apparently. But it’s still nice being able to just explore the game, do a few quests here or there and getting to know the world that way. I did play Skyrim, but not far into the story and I…

Codemancer – Give Back to an Indie Developer
Krikket from Nerd Girl Thoughts shared the idea for the “Give Back to an Indie Developer” blogging challenge. I love the idea and immediately went to take a look at Itch.io. It was difficult to decide for one game as several caught my interest. I decided to give “Codemancer” a try. A game that is…

Paeroka’s Ponderings: Choosing the wrong class in MMOs
I usually like the levelling process in MMOs. The amount of alts I have is proof enough! But it does get tedious at some point – both in MMOs with vertical as well as horizontal progression. While levelling per se is fun in Guild Wars 2, having to recollect enough Hero Points to unlock the…

Remember Black & White? How about Fata Deum then?
Good old Black & White… I loved the game and I hated it. To be honest, I never got far. There was this one quest where you had to follow a non-believer without him noticing you. I tried over and over again, on several days, and I never managed to get past him. But it…

Finally settling into ESO
For months, I’ve been saying how much I love ESO and that I just need to get into the game… and then I did only log on to do crafting dailies. However, two things have changed recently. I joined a German guild with a trader, but they’re mostly a casual social guild that also tries…

My fellow Blapril-bloggers
Blapril is in full swing and there are lots of fellow bloggers posting more than they usually do. I’ll be honest, I haven’t been able to follow them all and read their blog posts. Despite the current Corona situation, I am in Home Office and have full busy work days. However, I have been reading…

Why do I like Planet Zoo again?
I went back to playing Planet Zoo after months of not playing it. In my memory, I had stopped playing the game only because I had gotten into Jurassic World Evolution again and wanted to finish the campaign first. But now that I did play Planet Zoo again, I remember. I spend more time trying…

Hair and MMO characters
MassivelyOP had a fun yet fascinating topic for their Daily Grind column. Which MMO has the best character hair in the genre? I decided to muse about that here instead of leaving a comment over there, mainly because I had previously complained about some hair styles and it’s one thing that often annoys me, too.…

Duoing in Elder Scrolls Online
Bokoahnerk and I try to get duos in all the MMOs that we’re playing together. Most of the time, these are hardly ever played. But at least, they do exist for the times that we want to play together like that. A long time ago, I made a second Dragonknight (my main was a Dragonknight…

Free on Steam: Regions of Ruin
Regions of Ruins is currently free on Steam (until April 7). That means that if you get it now, you get to keep it completely for free! A week or so ago, bookahnerk considered buying this game. Thankfully (for him, not for the developers), he didn’t. It’s a side-scrolling game where you try to build…

My mini mes in 2020
It’s become a bit of a tradition to show off my mini mes during blogging months. Back in August 2015, I made the first post. Then there was a bit of a gap until November 2018 where I did the second one. August 2019 had the third post. And now it’s time for the fourth…

Kickstarter: Chinatown Detective Agency
I quite enjoy detective games. It’s a genre where I actually have a high percentage of finished games! I particularly liked LA Noire (not the ending, though) and Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments. So when I saw this Kickstarter game advertised, I at least had to take a look. Of course, since it’s a Kickstarter…
