Litwick Community Day

Saturday 15th was Litwick Community Day, with the cute little candle Pokemon. I have a feeling that Litwick is semi popular, and it’s definitely a favourite of my sister’s. While the event was nothing special, there’s still a few things that were a bit odd. Plenty of new shinies but some unusual choices in special moves. A nice day Personally, I had a really nice Community Day. Mostly by sheer coincidence, I actually ran into some of the other members of my Pokemon GO community. I met with three friends and long-term players, all of whom wanted some shinies and… [Continue Reading]

So Much For That – Definitely A Saints Row Game

I owe you all a little apology. I was going to make a whole playthrough of the game Agents of Mayhem. The plan was to play through and point out all the silly Saints Row references. And actually play something different for once. But I can’t. I’ve played about 2 hours worth of this game, and it’s just… not fun. I’m not enjoying myself. But why? The gunplay and movement feel off The first thing I noticed was that both walking and sprinting felt pretty slow, and that shotguns only work at point blank range. Even though I was on… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Definitely Not A Saints Row Game – Part 1

So we’re back here in Agents of Mayhem. You know, Definitely Not a Saints Row game. Despite all the purple. Anyway, with the tutorial out of the way, I’ve got a new mission to do and it involves unlocking a new character. Before I do that though, I have to go and see Gremlin, and there’s a Legion base I need to destroy. Let’s start with the Legion base. There are various Legion bases all over the map and I want to take them over and make them my own. Or, rather, make them into MAYHEM bases. This base in… [Continue Reading]

Medic Plays Definitely Not A Saints Row Game – Part 0

Does anyone here remember Agents of Mayhem? No? I don’t blame you. Agents of Mayhem is a game made by the same people who made Saints Rows 3 to 4. But it isn’t a Saints Row game. It’s definitely not one. Agents of Mayhem is a whole solo adventure set in another city, not at all related to the Saints Row series. Except, well, it really looks like a Saints Row game, what with all the familiar purple symbols everywhere. Anyway, it’d be wrong to judge a game by its cover, so I’ve decided to play Agents of Mayhem, just… [Continue Reading]

Cool Sciency Stuff That I Don’t Get

Lately, I’ve been watching a lot of stuff on Youtube. While my desire to play games is dulled, I need to do something with my free time. Something that isn’t writing. So yeah, Youtube time it is. But I’ve not been sitting here, watching any old bollocks. I’ve been watching sciency things. And I’d be lying if I said I understood it all. So what sciency things have I been watching? Mostly quantum stuff. You know, the building blocks of the universe. But damn is this stuff confusing. I mean, it’s what the universe is made of, of course it’s… [Continue Reading]

Happy Birthday, Team Fortress 2

On October 10th 2007, Team Fortress 2 was released. Now, 15 years later, it’s still going strong. Okay, maybe not that strong, but we are still getting a handful of updates to this day. The yearly Scream Fortress event has been activated and we just got a handful of cool and interesting maps. There are still plenty of players picking up the game, and it’s still Free to Play. While there may not be as many active players as there used to be, it’s still easy enough to jump into a server and just start playing. Admittedly, it’s been hard… [Continue Reading]

Little Things I’d Like To See Fixed or Changed in Warframe

One of the nice things about Warframe is that every update is free, and so are all the bugs and glitches and stuff. However, these things are quickly patched up in hotfixes. However, there are tons of tiny little things that can sit unfixed for a long, long time. Sometimes, they’re not really actually broken, they’re just… not very good. They’re little things I’d like to see fixed or changed. Blast Procs Blast used to be my favourite damage type. It was amazing, because it could ragdoll enemies and send them flying. Blast is the reason I kept the Sonicor… [Continue Reading]

A Weird Gyarados Event

On October 8th, we had an event in Pokemon GO featuring Mega Gyarados. This was a raid event, in which every raid was a Mega Gyarados, with a higher chance of getting a shiny one. Everyone would get 5 free raid passes, and there was plenty of Mega Candy to be earned. But this event didn’t go as smoothly as everyone would have liked. The event started early At 11am, a Mega Gyarados spawned over the two new gyms near my home. Which was surprising, because the event was scheduled to start at 2pm. Turns out, Niantic started the event… [Continue Reading]

Things I’d Like Pokemon Buddies to do

I love the whole buddy system in Pokemon GO. It’s like having a little virtual companion that doesn’t need much maintenance. However, considering how long it takes to get to Best Buddies, the incentives for doing so are a bit… lackluster. So today I’ll be musing about some extra incentives that I’d like to see. Spin Pokestops Buddies actually already have a thing to do with pokestops, but it’s not that useful. After all, we can already see Pokestops we haven’t visited yet. The buddy just doesn’t do anything useful. However, we can put our Pokemon to work by having… [Continue Reading]

Early Thoughts and Speculations on Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

I’m not normally one to speculate about new Pokemon games. After all, I only really play Pokemon GO, which is currently in spooky mode. But after having played Pokemon Sword, I think I cam finally look forward to a new Pokemon game. So far, I’ve liked what I’ve seen with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. But I do have some thoughts. What I don’t have are any pictures, so have this picture of the Kanto starters. Because I’m pretty certain we’ll get some new form for Charizard. Not seen many new Pokemon Cyclizar in particular stands out. It’s a Dragon/Normal type… [Continue Reading]
