Lately, I’ve been watching a lot of UK panel shows. Many of these are comedy panel shows, with comedians and the odd famous person taking part. The shows can be about anything, from criticizing current news and politics like Mock the Week, all the way to “I literally just told you” hosted by Jimmy Carr. Yes, that is a new show. Yes, it is also literally how the show works. In the middle of all that, we have more crazy comedy panel shows like Would I Lie to You and Taskmaster, as well as a ton of other panel shows.… [Continue Reading]

What sort of ‘end game’ do people even want?

January 20, 2022January 13, 2022 Medic 0 Comments end game, ramble, rant, warframe

Warframe contains a lot of content. From cramped exterminate missions to the fresh air of Cetus, all the way to space in our Railjacks, there is a LOT to do. Yet somehow, for some people, that doesn’t seem to be enough. Veteran players complain all the time that there isn’t much to do. They believe that Warframe has no end game content. But what even is end game content? The term ‘end game content’ is a very nebulous one. Players are looking for new content to challenge themselves, or, just in general, they want something to do after they’ve played… [Continue Reading]

5 Legendaries You Don’t Need to Power Up in Pokemon GO

January 19, 2022January 12, 2022 Medic 0 Comments candy, legendary, pokemon go

Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon GO are very expensive to power up. They require a lot of candy, and that candy is hard to come by. Not only that, but they rotate in and out of raids. If you don’t keep up, you end up missing vital Pokemon. However, thankfully, not every legendary Pokemon is worth the time and effort to power up. They may have some very niche uses in PvP stuff, but you shouldn’t see these Pokemon in raids and the like. Here are some Legendary Pokemon that you don’t need to power up. Virizion and Cobalion The Swords… [Continue Reading]

Pumpkin Soup for the Soul

January 18, 2022January 11, 2022 Medic 0 Comments pumpkin, recipe, soup, spuffood

This year, the winter season has been very odd. Normally, November and December are colder, cold enough to warrant making soup. Late December and January however have proved me wrong, making things cold and wet and miserable. So I’ve decided to make some soup. Pumpkin soup. Ingredients Pumpkin of some sort, with seeds and skin removed A couple of onions, sliced Some potatoes, peeled and scrubbed About 5-6 cloves of garlic, sliced and mushed (not bulbs) A decent amount of Mixed Spices A teaspoon of cinnamon, cloves and paprika One stock cube of your choice Salt and Pepper, but not… [Continue Reading]

Caliban: A Cross between Warframes and Sentients

January 17, 2022January 10, 2022 Medic 0 Comments caliban, new war, sentient, warframe

When the New War was released, it was actually part of an update with other stuff in it. Not only did we get two deluxe skins, but we also got new weapons. We also got Harrow Prime, a crowd favourite. Oh, and yeah, there was a Warframe released alongside all the new shinies. Caliban is a true Sentient Warframe, Erra’s pet project of making a Sentient/Warframe hybrid. But is this new amalgam any good? Let’s find out! “But Retvik, what about Revenant?” That is a fair question. Revenant was touted to be half Sentient, half Warframe. However, Revenant is the… [Continue Reading]

A Call of Cthulhu Tale: The Last Stand of Barnabas Nambly

A while back I wrote an article recounting my first experience in Call of Cthulhu. Those campaigns were all set in the default 1920s setting, but there’s actually a second available time period: the 1890s Gaslight era. After having a blast with roaring San Francisco, my group chose to rewind the clock. This time we wanted to face our next eldritch threat in London on the turn of the 19th century. For me, the first curveball came when generating stats for my new character. The online generator gave me one of the weirdest builds any of us had ever seen.… [Continue Reading]

Level 50 in Pokemon GO – Not Even Close

January 15, 2022January 9, 2022 Medic 0 Comments

Back in December 2020, Pokemon GO had a rather large update. After four years of the maximum level being 40, we finally got levels 41-50 added. However, the new levels weren’t as they seemed. To make one’s way to level 50, you must do tons of grinding for experience, and it’s an insanely long journey. So long in fact that it’s taken over a year to increase my level by 3. Millions of XP, lots of tasks Right now, I am level 43, and I need 11,000,000 experience to go from level 43 to level 44, and I’m not even… [Continue Reading]

The Best Ways to Help Tenno Newbies

January 14, 2022January 8, 2022 Medic 0 Comments newbie, noob, warframe

I’ve always been the sort of person who is just happy to help. I enjoy helping and assisting others. The desire to help others spreads into the video games I play. There’s a reason I normally play as support characters. And Warframe is one such game, even if I’m not playing a support Warframe. That’s a good thing, because the new player experience is rather hit or miss. Anyway, here are a few ways you can help newbies and make the most of their experience. Take it slow Most newbie Tenno are quite slow. They haven’t mastered Warframe’s rather varied… [Continue Reading]

A Nod to Great Agility

January 13, 2022January 7, 2022 Medic 0 Comments parkour, speed, warframe

The other day, I actually played a little bit of Warframe. Lately, I’ve only been doing the bare minimum, grabbing login rewards and the like. However I had also taken a fresh new Tenno under my wing, as I often tend to accidentally do. One of my favourite things to do is help out a newbie. And I tend to put special attention to fresh, newly awoken Tenno who I also happen to be friends with. That being said, that other day, once I was on my own, I decided to do some farming. I’d recently bought an armour, Syandana… [Continue Reading]

Animal Waiting

January 12, 2022January 6, 2022 Medic 0 Comments animal crossing, switch

For once, I’ve decided to expand my horizons and try a new game. The game in question? Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Animal Crossing is the only game I’ve bought for my Nintendo Switch so far, and it will probably stay like that for a while. My only other game is Warframe but that… don’t get me started on that. Anyway, I’ve been playing Animal Crossing, and I’m slowly working through everything. There’s a lot to do, a lot of work and a lot of tasks at hand and a lot of grinding to be done. I need to go fishing,… [Continue Reading]
