Enjoying building in the Nether Update

by
yayyy

The Nether is now much better with the latest update. Before, the Nether is just a dreary burning hellscape. Now, with all the new Nether biomes and mobs, it’s actually fun to explore and roam around. Out of all the new biomes, my favourite is the basalt delta. I’m not sure why, but I really like the atmosphere there. The biggest part for me, however, are the new blocks available for building. New wood, new stones, and even new lights! I enjoy building a lot, so I’ll be talking about those now. Shroomlights are the newest light blocks to be… [Continue Reading]

A Quick Ramble About the Heart of Deimos Intro Quest

by
A Tenno speaks to Loid, the Cephalon servant of the Entrati.

It’s kinda sad, really. I’m so damn exhausted for real life that I’m too tired to actually play video games. Despite the fact that the massive 3GB Heart of Deimos update just landed. Amazingly though, on my crappy internet, the download somehow went by quite quickly, and I got to at the very least play the intro quest. This quest is… not what I expected. I honestly didn’t think that a good 60% of the quest would be listening to family squabbles. By the way, this is going to be a SPOILER HEAVY ARTICLE. If you don’t want to be… [Continue Reading]

Wait, a Brief Period Without Event Spawns?

by
Pokemon spawning in the middle of a desert

The three Ultra Weeks have just finished in Pokemon Go. Aside from some small make-up mini-events, we have no event right now. The calm before the next storm. But this is actually… kinda weird. We’ve had events for so long that we haven’t really had any time with no weird events going on. There’s no special eggs, no special raids, nothing. It’s… kinda peaceful. We get to see more Pokemon, kinda. When you have an event, spawns are pretty limited. You see whatever is in the event and not much else. The Enigma Event had tons of Staryu spawning, as… [Continue Reading]

Soloing and Duo-ing Things in Warframe

by
Members of the clan Tenno of Anarchy

One of the things I’ve always liked about Warframe is how almost all of the game is solo-able. The only things that weren’t doable solo were the 4-8player Trials, but they were designed with 8 players in mind. Even the Halls of Ascension, including the floating platform, can be done on your own by cleverly using your Operator, your Warframe and a handful of Specters. You can even build and fund a full dojo completely on your own. But playing solo is so, so much more work than playing with a group. Right off the bat, the biggest challenge to… [Continue Reading]

Retvik’s Thoughts on the Roar Pre-Nerf

by
Blue and Gold Rhino

As part of some desperate attempt to not break Warframe completely, some subsumed abilities will be nerfed. What does this mean? This means that, when the Helminth system comes out, some abilities won’t be identical. For example, Roar won’t have the same strength on other frames as it does Rhino. It’s only a handful of abilities, but it’s caused an uproar (no pun intended) in the Warframe community. Why? I don’t really know. But honestly, as a person with a blog, I really don’t know what the big deal is. Seriously, take a moment to stop and think about this.… [Continue Reading]

The SPUF of Legend Hits 1,000 Subscribers!

by

On July 13th, Tarun Chahal subscribed to the channel and we officially passed 1,000 subscribers on The SPUF Of Legend! Medic and I are both completely blown away that you’ve all decided to join us on this little channel, and I don’t think either of us ever suspected from the beginning that we were going to hit the quadruple digits on subscribers. We just want to give you a big thank you not just for subscribing, though, because actually you guys add a lot of value to the channel, and really, it’s not just the two of us.

Unova Week Was Even More Naff

by
The only actual new releases. Bouffalant doesn't count.

I feel like I owe Enigma Week an apology. It was a rather weak event that lasted a whole week. But even Enigma Week had some good stuff in it. Unova Week is just all round bad. What is actually new? There’s four new Pokemon and two new shinies. The shinies are Genesect, a Mythical Pokemon, and Roggenrola, an uncommon Pokemon that is only ever vaguely abundant in partly cloudy weather. Both are good shinies, but the event spawn rates of Roggenrola are mediocre, and Genesect is a Mythical, so if you don’t get one this week, you’re screwed. The… [Continue Reading]

Medic’s Thoughts on Remote Raid Invites in Pokemon Go

by
Medic and a bunch of Pokemon face a massive Tyranitar

You know what’s weird? Despite the ability to remotely invite people to raids being out for a while… I received my first raid invite only yesterday. Most of the time, it’s me who’s at the raid location, trying to invite other people. So, finally, I actually got to see what a remote raid via an invite felt like. It’s… good and bad. I’ll discuss both. The Good The best thing by far is that you can do raids nearly anywhere. As long as someone is at the raid, they can invite up to 5 other people. I’ve been invited to… [Continue Reading]

Trying EverQuest in 2020

by

Despite not considering myself an MMO kind of guy, I’ve somehow put in hundreds of hours in both World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy 14, mostly because they’re great games to play while plowing through my TV backlog on the second monitor. Both of them were highly influential games for their generation of MMOs, cornering the market by setting the standards many of their competitors would try and (for the most part, fail to) surpass. But they’re only two parts of the triumvirate. There’s a third game, one that first put 3D MMOs on the map. Most of the earlier… [Continue Reading]

Risk of Rain 2’s Final Boss and Level Are Pretty Crazy

by
UES Safe Travels in orbit above a strange planet

Risk of Rain 2 is finally out of early access and can be completed. This means a final level and a final boss, as well as a way to escape without, well, dying. Before RoR2 came out of early access, the only real way to end a run was to die or loop once and obliterate or fight a Scavenger. But now we have a final boss that we can kill, as well as some sort of happy ending. But man, this final boss is a rush. (Also, spoilers ahead, so be careful out there.) Getting to the boss isn’t… [Continue Reading]
