Infinite Lives

June 30, 2018June 27, 2018 Medic 0 Comments a sandvich for your thoughts, life, philosophical bollocks, random

How many times have you been in near-death situations? Hopefully none. Hopefully you’ve never seen your life flash before your eyes. But there’s always been that case where you’ve stepped off the curb and nearly been clipped by a speeding vehicle, or you slip while going down the stairs and manage to catch yourself. Little moments like that. But what if we think about the opposite? Think about how maybe you’re on the brink of death. Every time you close your eyes, every time you blink, you think it might be the last. But you’re stubborn. You’re desperately trying to… [Continue Reading]

On Dragon Cave and Other View-Based Collection Games

June 28, 2018June 25, 2018 Medic 0 Comments breeding, click, click site, dragons

In 2009, I was at peak Dragon Addiction and was looking for anything to sate my desire to be a dragon. Sometime during that year, I found the website Dragon Cave, a site dedicated to breeding and collection dragons. The idea is simple: you pick up an egg, either a fresh new one from the Cave or from a pile of eggs abandoned by other players, and you feed it with clicks and views. After 4-7 days, if the egg gets enough views, it hatches and you need to feed your new hatchling more clicks and views. After 4-7 more… [Continue Reading]

Rambling About the Corpus

June 27, 2018June 25, 2018 Medic 0 Comments corpus, grineer, ramble, warframe

The Corpus aren’t treated fairly in Warframe. Most of the time they’re simply set to one side. Most of the time, we have to deal with pissed off Grineer. The Natah quest featured Grineer. The War Within featured Grineer. The Silver Grove, Chains of Harrow, the Plains of Eidolon, the Sands of Inaros and even the shitty quest that is the Limbo Theorem are all Grineer places. What is Corpus-orientated? The Glast Gambit. And that quest was worse than the Limbo Theorem. The best Corpus thing we got lately was the Corpra Tennogen skin for Excalibur, the Supra Vandal, the… [Continue Reading]

Ordis Deserves Better

June 26, 2018June 25, 2018 Medic 3 Comments cephalon, GUNS GUNS GUNS, lore, ordis, warframe

I’ve been meaning to write another article about our good friend Ordis for a while, and the Sacrifice is the perfect opportunity to do so. All these years, Ordis has been by our side, helping us out, looking after our quarters, sorting out our Warframes and building our weapons for us. Ever since we woke up, weak and confused, Ordis has been there. Heck, he was the third person to speak to us, after Captain Vor threatening us and Lotus waking us up. Ordis has always been there. Ordis cares about us. But frankly, we treat him badly. Okay, maybe… [Continue Reading]

Payment in Detonite Injectors and Fieldrons

June 25, 2018June 22, 2018 Medic 0 Comments farming, grind, warframe

I’ve been doing a lot of Invasions lately. Or rather, looking at invasions and wondering whether I can be bothered to do them or not. And then eventually doing them anyway because I need loot. Well, I say loot, I mean components. Well, I say components, I mean a handful of resources to build clan tech weapons. Alright, so Invasions are simple. There’s two types: you either have Corpus attacking Grineer nodes or vice versa, or you have Grineer or Corpus fighting off Infested, often called an Infested Outbreak. If it’s an Infested Outbreak and the mission node under attack… [Continue Reading]

How the Justice League Movie COULD Have Been Great.

June 24, 2018June 22, 2018 Medic 0 Comments movie, ramble, rant

Whether you’re a Marvel fan or a DC fan, I think we can all agree that the Justice League movie wasn’t that great. It wasn’t the worst thing on the planet, it wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t amazing either. Something was off about the whole movie. But luckily, there’s a three step guide that the people behind DC movies can follow to make sure that their movies can turn out better. Because competition is good and I’d love for DC movies to be as good and popular as Marvel movies. Thing the First: Get a Better Villain There’s a lot… [Continue Reading]

100% Not A Newbie Anymore…

June 23, 2018June 21, 2018 Medic 0 Comments

Ever since I started playing Warframe, I’d write silly Warframe fan fictions, many of which would get posted here on the Daily SPUF should we ever be short of articles. They’d feature a young, newbie Volt and his friend, a more experienced Frost, as they wandered around the Warframe universe, generally avoiding the whole Operators Controlling Them thing. The Volt was clearly based on me, and various other characters were based on other people too. I hadn’t written one in a while. Then when I went to write one the other day, I realised I’m not actually that newbie Volt… [Continue Reading]

Angry Excalibur

June 21, 2018June 19, 2018 Medic 0 Comments excalibur, umbra, warframe

By far, the Sacrifice is an amazing quest to get a new Warframe. Unlike quests like Octavia’s Anthem or the Glast Gambit, the Sacrifice hows you everything that went into making a Warframe and Warframes in general. And like older frames of the past, it rewards you with a fully built Warframe at the end. Exceeeeeept it’s never that simple. Normally newly built Warframes don’t force you out of their bodies, try to kill you and run away. Normally Warframes don’t seem to have any true sapience at all. But Excalibur Umbra? He’s still alive. And he’s very, very angry.… [Continue Reading]

The Confused Crazy Cat Lady Frame

June 20, 2018June 17, 2018 Medic 0 Comments khora, warframe

Khora was the first Warframe released in 2018, when she was originally teased for release back in 2017, scheduled to be released alongside a Damage 2.5/3.0 update that altered how Impact, Puncture and Slash damage worked. The damage update was completely scrapped, leaving Khora very confused as what she was supposed to do and what her theme was. So we ended up with this strange, confused Khora that came with the Beasts of the Sanctuary update. Khora is the second Warframe to have her blueprint locked away in a “C Rotation reward” alongside another Warframe component, alongside Ivara, and is… [Continue Reading]

This has nothing to do with the movie, I just wanted a Star Wars picture that was free to use for this article.

Solo – A Late Movie Review

June 19, 2018June 17, 2018 Medic 0 Comments chewie, han solo, movie review, raaaghagarrrragh, review, star wars

I’d been meaning to see Solo: A Star Wars Story on release, or at least a week after with my brother Terroxy. Somehow my Star Wars-hating sister Nommy saw it first, and it MUST have been a good movie because she enjoyed it. “It’s not a Star Wars movie!” Nommy protests. Yeah no, you like a Star Wars movie. Don’t lie to us. But me and Terroxy saw it late, the 7:45pm showing on Saturday 16th of June. And we had the WHOLE SCREEN to ourselves. Literally just the two of us in the cinema. That was cool. So yeah,… [Continue Reading]
