On Relics and Prime Parts

December 16, 2016January 9, 2017 Medic 0 Comments warframe

In Warframe, there are fancy versions of normal things. For example, there is Volt, and a fancy version of him called Volt Prime. Volt Prime is slightly better than normal Volt – he has slightly more armour and an extra V slot in his mods. He also has bright, shiny gold bits, exclusive to Prime items. All Prime items have these shiny gold bits, as well as either a black and gold or white and gold colour scheme. Now, Prime items are obtainable in-game, like most things in Warframe. You can buy new Prime sets as they come out if… [Continue Reading]

The Thieves Guild of Skyrim

December 12, 2016January 4, 2017 Medic 0 Comments guild, ramble, Skyrim, thieves

The Thieves Guild of Skyrim mostly consists of douchebags. There, I said it. I know it’s a weird way to start an article, with the conclusion at the start, but it makes oh so much sense. Okay, let’s backtrack. Let’s look at why they’re all douchebags. The first time you meet the Thieves Guild, it’s most likely via Brynjolf. He’s a shady but attractive looking guy claiming to sell miracle cures that people are dumb enough to buy, in the market square of Riften. He’ll always spot you and gesture about how much gold you have, before asking if you… [Continue Reading]

Christmas Present Gifting Tips – 2016

December 10, 2016January 4, 2017 Medic 0 Comments Christmas, fun, gift, ideas, present, ramble

I’ll be honest, I am feeling very Bah Humbug this year. I’m in no mood to spend money on people, and most people aren’t really fans of getting shitty art as gifts unless they’re Davjo and it’s a picture of a Snivy. I know it’s the ought that counts but my art isn’t really of gift-giving quality. That being said, I’m doing my best to be Christmassy, so here’s some nice gift-giving tips for this year! Why this year, you ask? Well, since the last time I did an article like this, things have changed. For example, gift wrap over… [Continue Reading]

600 Articles of Medicing

December 9, 2016January 4, 2017 Medic 0 Comments 600, achievement, articles, magic, medic, stories, writing

Not long ago, I wrote an article on how I’d written over 500 articles on the Daily SPUF. Since then, I haven’t stopped writing, oh no, I’ve been writing more and more and more. I’ve actually gone straight past the 600 article mark. Turns out, I got distracted with my own writings and forgot to come back to this article and actually write anything of substance. Then again, I don’t actually know what to write or anything. At the same time, I could also mention that we’re closing in flown straight past on the 1300 articles mark. Really though, neither… [Continue Reading]

This is my Volt Prime, complete with Reactor and Exilus Slot.

Mods and Mechs

December 8, 2016January 4, 2017 Medic 0 Comments gameplay, meta, mods, warframe

I don’t think Warframes are really mechs, more biomechanical constructs. But there is a lot of modding that goes on in Warframe. As in customization of your characters, not Skyrim-levels of modding. It’s all in-game. Modding is quite simple. You get mods as loot. You find a lot of mods on the ground, but some are mission rewards and some are… Dug up from the ground in Excavation missions. They come in three flavors, bronze, silver and gold, but these are rarity, not how good they are. Vitality for example ups your health but is a bronze mod. Continuity increases… [Continue Reading]

Power Pissing Contest

“Hey kid!” Frost grinned as he slapped the young Volt on the back. “Yellow, black and grey? Unusual colour combination. Did Ordis tell you his sensors were bleeding when you equipped that?” The Volt, who was holding a mod he’d just picked up, trying to work out whether it was useful, blinked. Or, at least, his inexperienced operator did. “W-we can talk to each other?” “Um, yes, of course we can talk!” the overly friendly, trench coat-wearing Warframe continued to grin. Unlike Volt, he was wearing his best primed syandana, a word Volt could barely pronounce, and a fancy helmet… [Continue Reading]

The Dark Brotherhood of Skyrim

December 5, 2016December 19, 2016 Medic 0 Comments assassin, dark brotherhood, quest, Skyrim

I’ve written about two of the major parts of Skyrim, the Companions and the Civil War, and I thought I might as well continue that trend and write about some of the other major factions of Skyrim. As to what group to start with, that was a tricky decision, and I ultimately decided to go with the Dark Brotherhood, a small family of assassins. Because we all need a little bit of edginess in our lives. Of course, there are spoilers ahead, so read on with caution if you haven’t played much Skyrim yet. Seriously. Spoilers. They start here. The… [Continue Reading]

A Bored Little Volt

December 4, 2016December 19, 2016 Medic 0 Comments story, volt, warframe

Readers, let me know if you fancy seeing any more stories around here, fan fiction, whatever. Also feel free to let me know if you don’t want to see new Warframe articles. Volt was bored. He had been lounging around inside his Orbiter for several hours now, waiting for things to happen. Great things he had been told. Mysterious things. New things to do. It wasn’t like Volt didn’t have things to do. He still had plenty of missions building up from across the Origin System, particularly on Jupiter, Europa and Pluto, but they were boring missions, mostly tedious missions… [Continue Reading]

Basic Minecraft Survival Tips

December 3, 2016December 19, 2016 Medic 0 Comments advice, minecraft, suggestion, tips

Minecraft is a pretty old game, but even though I’ve been playing since alpha, I don’t remember everything. Then again, I am the sort of person who doesn’t really play to end game, I play just to survive. Really, the end game doesn’t have much in it anyway. In doing so, I’ve developed a few tricks that I use to do just that. Of course I always eventually settle down and build a shitty house, I’d like to find some diamonds eventually, but for me, it’s the journey that counts. Your First Days First things first, you need to get… [Continue Reading]

Things Overwatch Got Right

December 2, 2016December 19, 2016 Medic 0 Comments happy, overwatch, positive

I’ve been rather negative about Overwatch. Not as negative as aabicus was yesterday, but I haven’t exactly been kind to the game. Of course, most of that is because the damn thing gives me headaches unless I turn the HUD off, but let’s be frank, Overwatch is a genuinely very good game. So here’s a list of random crap I think Overwatch did right. Casual Matchmaking Alright, no matchmaking system can ever be perfect. Team Fortress 2’s matchmaking is either shit or 99% of the playerbase is so bad that the matchmaking system can’t work out what to do with… [Continue Reading]
