Please Don’t Put Balls in Bundles and Boxes

After wasting a bunch of hard-earns coins in Pokemon GO, I haven’t really been looking that the boxes in the Pokemon GO shop. Normally, I’d have very little coins because I’d spend them all on raid passes. But raids have been unappealing lately, so I finally got myself 480 coins, ready to buy something nice. The Pokemon GO shop has got various useful things within it, and mostly works as a “pay to go faster” shop than anything else. For example, if you have eggs you want to hatch, then get super incubators and hatch eggs quickly. Or just do… [Continue Reading]

The Easy Fortuna and Deimos Resource Farms

With each Open World in Warframe, we get a lot of resources that aren’t really available anywhere else. Most open world resources also have an annoying habit of being ingredients for various blueprints too, meaning you need to keep them in stock. Some of these resources are also needed for leveling up various syndicates and groups too. However, the way to gain these resources comes from two specific places: mining and fishing. They are so sloooow. Mining and fishing both can eat up a lot of time, if you do them normally. Moving to each little gem or mineral deposit,… [Continue Reading]

Tips to Get to Best Buddies slightly quicker in Pokemon GO

In Pokemon GO, getting a Pokemon to the level of Best Buddies is kinda hard. Actually, no. I take that back. It’s tedious trying to level up a buddy. Luckily here are some little tips to maybe speed things up. Keep the Nanabs For once, nanab berries have a use, aside from making excellent throws in a row. Most of the time, you don’t need nanabs to catch Pokemon, so it’s worth feeding them to your buddy instead. Eventually, your buddy will start giving you gifts of berries, but at the start, you have to use what you’ve got. Luckily,… [Continue Reading]

Fortuna Bounties and Ignoring the Orb Vallis

In order to level up with Fortuna, you need to do a lot of bounties. Just like Cetus, Fortuna’s boss Eudico directs us through various stages of a bounty, either sabotaging the Corpus or saving their own. It’s all very standard stuff, and the missions themselves are pretty easy. If anything, the hardest tasks are the assassination ones simply due to a lack of enemies. However, there’s another big problem with Fortuna bounties. Only the centre of the Orb Vallis exists apparently. If you grab a bounty from Eudico, all of the tasks will be in the same 2-3 areas.… [Continue Reading]

4 things to do when you have done almost everything in Warframe

I have a lot of time in Warframe, but lately, I haven’t been doing much. Sure, I played the New War and some bounties, but honestly, there isn’t too much going on. At the same time, I like to keep one eye on Warframe, and it’s still my preferred game when it comes to mindless slaughter. Even then though, it’s nice to have some side objectives to do between mindless slaughter sessions. Here are my favourite things to do when I don’t fancy doing anything else, but still want to be vaguely productive. Open relics There’s nothing better than running… [Continue Reading]

My 5 Least Favourite Shiny Pokemon (that I actually use)

I’m a simple person. If I see something shiny, then I feel I must have it. My brain works like that of a magpie or crow, always gathering shiny items. However, since most magpies and crows can’t use game consoles, they can’t really understand what a shiny Pokemon is. And as we slowly climb towards nearly a thousand different Pokemon, it’s a tad tedious to rate all of them. Instead, in today’s article, I’ll be sticking to only Pokemon that I use. Because, even if we round it down to just Pokemon GO, we’d be here all day. Garchomp First… [Continue Reading]

The Arise Quadrology: A Retrospective

On December 31st 2020, Adobe Flash offically died, taking with it a huge catalogue of ancient in-browser games. The sheer volume of animations, websites, comics, and other Flash-based media that disappeared that day is impossible to overstate. While there are countless titles I could have written this memorial article about, for some reason I decided to eulogize the worst quadrology of flash games ever made. Back in the early 2000s my brother and I regularly duoed escape-the-room games as it was a particularly good genre for paired-play. Every time one of you solved a puzzle/found another inventory item, they could… [Continue Reading]

What sort of ‘end game’ do people even want?

Warframe contains a lot of content. From cramped exterminate missions to the fresh air of Cetus, all the way to space in our Railjacks, there is a LOT to do. Yet somehow, for some people, that doesn’t seem to be enough. Veteran players complain all the time that there isn’t much to do. They believe that Warframe has no end game content. But what even is end game content? The term ‘end game content’ is a very nebulous one. Players are looking for new content to challenge themselves, or, just in general, they want something to do after they’ve played… [Continue Reading]

5 Legendaries You Don’t Need to Power Up in Pokemon GO

Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon GO are very expensive to power up. They require a lot of candy, and that candy is hard to come by. Not only that, but they rotate in and out of raids. If you don’t keep up, you end up missing vital Pokemon. However, thankfully, not every legendary Pokemon is worth the time and effort to power up. They may have some very niche uses in PvP stuff, but you shouldn’t see these Pokemon in raids and the like. Here are some Legendary Pokemon that you don’t need to power up. Virizion and Cobalion The Swords… [Continue Reading]

Caliban: A Cross between Warframes and Sentients

When the New War was released, it was actually part of an update with other stuff in it. Not only did we get two deluxe skins, but we also got new weapons. We also got Harrow Prime, a crowd favourite. Oh, and yeah, there was a Warframe released alongside all the new shinies. Caliban is a true Sentient Warframe, Erra’s pet project of making a Sentient/Warframe hybrid. But is this new amalgam any good? Let’s find out! “But Retvik, what about Revenant?” That is a fair question. Revenant was touted to be half Sentient, half Warframe. However, Revenant is the… [Continue Reading]
