A Little Look At Pokemon Spawns Near My Home

June 8, 2020June 2, 2020 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go, ramble, spawns

I’ve been doing some… experimenting lately. I’ve actually been leaving my game open in Pokemon Go for long periods of time. Originally, I was just trying to hatch eggs. Using something called GPS Drift, your avatar in Pokemon Go will wander around, even if you don’t move. But this movement isn’t pointless. With enough patience, you can use it to hatch eggs! And, if you have really shoddy GPS, you can also get the 50km walking milestone. But as I had my game open, I noticed some things. Namely, how Pokemon spawn around me. I have one spawn at my… [Continue Reading]

I Wish My Pokemon Go Buddy Was Permanent

June 7, 2020June 1, 2020 Medic 0 Comments buddy, buddy system, pokemon go

We’ve been able to have a buddy in Pokemon Go for a really long time. Your buddy adventures alongside you, collecting candies when you’ve walked specific distances. The new buddy system added last year however allows you to have your buddy out in the real world. They actually get to explore the map with you! However, like all good things, there’s a cost. You need to feed your Pokemon berries, to make them motivated. That totally sucks. I wish my Pokemon Go buddy was permanent! Or, at the very least, a toggle you can turn on and off. And frankly,… [Continue Reading]

I Don’t Like Saryn

June 6, 2020May 31, 2020 Medic 0 Comments saryn, warframe

I’ve never particularly liked Saryn, both as a frame to play as and a frame to play with. Saryn is probably the ultimate nuker, destroying rooms with ease. And because of her damage combinations, she does it better than anyone else. To the point that two Saryns are detrimental together, and things like Elite Sanctuary Onslaught become trivial. Saryn kills with ease. Before level 40 though, even a lowly modded Saryn can still nuke maps by pressing 4. Any time, as long as there’s some enemies around, Saryn can spread spores around and do massive Corrosive damage to enemies. With… [Continue Reading]

Use Whatever Colours You Want

June 5, 2020May 30, 2020 Medic 0 Comments colour scheme, cosmetics, warframe

I’ve sometimes spent hours trying to make myself a new colour scheme for one of my various Warframes. With so many colour palettes and cosmetic options, it’s hard to be decisive. But at the same time, it’s also sometimes tricky to make yourself unique. Some people will worry that they look cliche to edgy or whatever. My suggestion? Just do what you want. It’s not like anyone else will really notice. Wear the colours you want. I like the colour yellow, so I wear the colour yellow. As to why I like the colour yellow? I don’t know, I just… [Continue Reading]

8 Minutes 46 Seconds

June 4, 2020June 4, 2020 aabicus 0 Comments Black Lives Matter, real life, vaguely political

“The defendant had his knee on Mr. Floyd’s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds in total,” the criminal complaint against Derek Chauvin reads. “Two minutes and 53 seconds of this was after Mr. Floyd was non-responsive.” There are scary things happening right now. Even before these protests broke out around America, we (and everyone around the world) had been riding the uncertainty of a future afflicted by pandemic and quarantine. Millions have lost their jobs, the worst possible time for that since America ties its healthcare so closely to employment, and that single $1200 stimulus check from April is… [Continue Reading]

What the Fuck is up with Warframe’s Lore? Too Many Puppets!

June 3, 2020May 28, 2020 Medic 2 Comments lore, puppet, ramble, warframe

Ugh, everyone in Warframe is a damn puppet. Almost literally everyone. Warframe’s lore is incredibly all over the place. However you look at it, it’s easy to miss some details. Most of the lore in Warframe is buried away, or hidden in little crevices. But no matter what, even if you are completely lost, you can assume that someone is a puppet to someone else. You are a puppet as soon as the game starts. In the very introduction to Warframe, the first thing you experience is Captain Vor sticking a device on you so he can control you. He… [Continue Reading]

If I Could Completely Rework the Pyro…

June 2, 2020May 27, 2020 Medic 0 Comments pyro, ramble, random, Team Fortress 2

I’ll be honest, I’m not the biggest fan of the Pyro. The reason why is simple: Pyro is a close range class in a game filled with mid-range characters. That and the fact that the flamethrower just feels off compared to almost all other weapons in the game. Everything else shoots bullets or projectiles. Everything else is pretty clear that it hit you or damaged you. Flamethrowers are not the same. You get stray bits of flame that hit you or don’t hit you. Pyro overall is a jumbled mess of things that needs yet another complete rework anyway. So… [Continue Reading]

A Random Ramble About Pizza

June 1, 2020May 26, 2020 Medic 0 Comments nom, pizza

Pizza is great. Anyone who says they hate pizza is lying, or either allergic to gluten or lactose or something. Or maybe they just haven’t had a pizza they liked yet. Frankly, it’s a nice, filling meal that’s easy to make and enjoyed by most people. Regardless of age. I could be 80 and still want pizza. It’s just so damn versatile! A pizza for everyone. The most obvious cool thing about pizza is that you can have so many different toppings. Nearly anything works, from a variety of cheeses, to grilled vegetables, to a wide array of meats. There… [Continue Reading]

5 Reasons Why I Don’t Think We Should Have More Open Worlds in Warframe

May 31, 2020May 25, 2020 Medic 0 Comments fortuna, open world, orb vallis, plains of eidolon, warframe

Last week’s Nightwave task included doing 5 different bounties in the Orb Vallis. At minimum, this meant doing the 5 bounties Eudico offers, although the Profit Taker heists also count. While the bounties aren’t particularly hard, they are… incredibly boring and simple. I somewhat mindlessly worked my way through the Nightwave task and then just moved on. Despite being a cool place to visit, I had little reason to stick around. And in all honesty, the same applies to the Plains of Eidolon. While these two areas are cool, I really don’t think we need any more. We’ll probably end… [Continue Reading]

On the Hunger Meter in Minecraft and Why I Hate it

May 30, 2020May 23, 2020 Medic 0 Comments minecraft, minecraft beta, ramble

For modern players, the Hunger Meter is a staple of Minecraft. You need to keep yourself full of food, and you regenerate health when your hunger meter is full. To accommodate for this, there are tons of food items to farm or craft. From pork chops and chicken to berries, bread and honey, all the way to cake and pumpkin stew, there’s food for everyone. But for a long time, there was no hunger meter in Minecraft. It wasn’t always there. Funnily enough, Hunger only became a thing when Minecraft was just about to come out of beta. In Minecraft… [Continue Reading]
