Time sure does fly!

 I can't believe it has been almost 4 years since I last posted. A lot has gone on in that time, and Squadrons did not live up to what I wanted lol.

Really looking forward to the new WoW expansion, and I seem to have developed game ADHD. Unless a game just absolutely snares me, I end up playing a bunch at a time.

Currently on the list:

WoW of course

NCAA Football 25

Madden 25

Gear of War Remastered

Mad Max

and a few others as well.

Just figured I would check in letting everyone know I'm still standing.

Hope yall have been having a great life with plenty of time for games.

There’s a new Jek Porkins in town!

 Just preordered Star Wars Squadrons. When I was a teen, I would play Tie Fighter for hours on end. I always fantasized about being able to play with and against my friends. This was in the days before online gaming was a huge thing .

Now I can finally do it. Pew pew motherfuckers. 

Can’t wait to fire it up on October 1st. In the meantime there is a new Path if Exile league coming up that should keep me busy in the interim.

My gaming time is going to be scheduled for a while lol. Poe, then Squadrons, then Shadowlands, the Assassin’s Creed, then for Cyberpunk 2077. 2020 may suck but the games at the end of the year are FIRE.

Gaming ADD

 I swear recently I have a bad case of gaming add. Crusader Kings 3 came out but I have only put in about 4 hours so far. I have WoW, Guild Wars 2, CK 3, Call of Duty mobile all on the docket....and oh yeah a new hot season of Path of Exile is coming up.

I start playing a game for an hour or maybe two and then I want to play something else. Been a while since I found that game binge Magic. I’m thinking it will return for sure with Cyberpunk. There will also be a lot of Shadowlands played at the start of the expansion.

In the meantime I guess I’ll meep juggling these games as best I can. 

What have y’all been up to?

Upcoming games....gonna be busy lol

 Busy playing all these games!

I can’t remember a time where I had so many games I wanted to play coming out in a short period . Planning on making twitch and YouTube content on all of them but man it’s gonna be busy.

First up is Crusader Kings 3. I absolutely loved the second one and look forward to playing this one from the start. Paradox makes the best simulation games and I’m hoping this will be no exception.

Then we have Squadrons coming out. I have longed for a TIE fighter like multiplayer game for so long and now we are finally getting it. Can’t wait to squad up and play with friends.

Sometime Shadowlands will be releasing which means more fresh WoW content and a rekindling of my love. 

Then CoD 2020 which will hopefully be a huge improvement over the piece of shit that was Modern Warfare Multiplayer.

After that in short succession we have Assassins Creed Valhalla and Cyberpunk 2077. I’m looking forward to AC and have been working my way through Odyssey for the first time. Cyberpunk is my most anticipated game in years and the hype is through the roof for me.

Further down the line Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 2 are heavily on my radar.

Looks like a great time to be a gamer!

Gaming Updates

 So not much gaming in the last few days as we made a trip out of state to deal with some family stuff. Before that however there was plenty of gaming.

Recently been playing WoW of course. Sporadically and I get a little bored but I really do need to get cracking on leveling the rest of my Alts while the xp buff is still active. At about 3.5 million gold on my account now I think after filling my battle net balance back up.

I have been working my way through assassins creed odyssey for the first time. It’s a lot of fun but I probably need to chill on the side quests if I ever want to finish.

I started a full playthrough of Farcry5 on my YouTube channel with no commentary . I know I enjoy just watching the story and talking can overshadow that .

I also started Vikings: Wolves of Midgard since I love trying out ARPGs to see what they bring to the table. I’m going to be posting some let’s plays of that as well.


What have y’all been up to in the blogosphere?

Well Hello there!

well it has been about a year since my last post so letting the nobody that still reads this know I’m still alive. Still playing games and excited about some of the games coming out soon.

I recently got back into wow as of a couple of days ago since you can apparently earn flying for this expansion. I don’t understand the bullshit time gating at all. It honestly makes the game much less enjoyable for each character you need to level. I have been playing this game long enough . I don’t need an artificial grind to play .

Other than recently resubbing to wow I have been playing Black Ops 4 to prepare for the upcoming shooters. I will be getting Modern Warfare on Xbox and Borderlands 3 on the PC.

Blogging ain’t what it once was. It has been replaced by YouTube and Instagram and any number of other social media platforms. But they aren’t the same. It was amazing finding other bloggers and following their journeys. This was a fun little hobby. Never something for money . And it was great for a time. Now it is just another little blip in history.

I guess until next time....if there is a next time. Who knows . Maybe I should get with the times and post shit on other platforms . Or maybe I will just enjoy life without worrying about views and other dumb shit.
