My Mini-Mes (November 2018)

I saw Tyler from Superior Realities's posts about his stable of characters (impressive!) and decided I'd do the same or something similar. After searching through my own blog, I found…

New Lion’s Arch

Lake Doric in Kryta

I hate Mines of Moria (IntPiPoMo 1)

3 Nov 20182 Dec 2018

Please give me Rift Wars 2 (Blaugust Post 6)

25 Aug 201826 Aug 2018

Good old games… that you never played (Blaugust post 4)

19 Aug 201819 Aug 2018

Maybe you were too young when game XY originally released. Or you weren't into games then. Or you just completely missed game XY and never even knew it existed. Or…

Blaugust 2018 (Post 1)

1 Aug 2018

Blaugust... again. But not like the previous ones! As Rakuno pointed out, a mere 5 posts will qualify you to say "I did it!". That's not bad at all -…

The end of Blaugust 2016 (Blaugust Post 18)

21 Aug 201621 Aug 2016

15 Aug 2016

I already wrote about ArenaNet adding the possibility to name all your ranger's pets instead of just the 2 to 4 active ones. It may be a little change, especially…

Action RPGs and me (Blaugust Post 12)

14 Aug 2016
