The Second Best Team Rocket Grunt

July 9, 2021July 7, 2021 Medic 0 Comments BIDOOF, grunt, pokemon go, shadow pokemon, team rocket, team rocket grunt

Back in March of 2021, I wrote a long-winded article about the best Team Go Rocket grunt. Sure, all these grunts are the same. They’re the same copied and pasted model and they all have pink hair. But there’s something about one grunt that stood out. I was, of course, talking about the water-type grunt with 3 Magikarps as his Pokemon. A team like that is so bad that it’s actually good. Well, good for us at least. But all of a sudden, I have run into the second best Team Rocket Grunt. The Grunts have changed a bit since… [Continue Reading]

The Wave Rider – A Tedious Quest

July 8, 2021July 7, 2021 Medic 0 Comments k-drive, quest, tedium, warframe, yareli

Well, I’m amazed. I actually didn’t think that a more tedious quest could exist. Previously, the most pain in the ass quest belonged to Nidus, a Warframe that kinda didn’t even appear in his own quest story. Before that, Limbo held the most pain in the ass title. Mostly because his quest consisted of nothing but Archwing mobile defense and then excavation. Somehow though, the newest Warframe, Yareli, somehow has an even MORE tedious quest. SPOILERS AHEAD They’re not huge spoilers, because you just get told everything as you K-Drive around. But there are spoilers nonetheless IT IS NOTHING BUT… [Continue Reading]

Several Easy Warframe Weapons that will get you through the entire Star Chart

July 7, 2021June 30, 2021 Medic 0 Comments advice, guide, help, newbie, noob, tip, warframe, weapon

It’s hard to choose weapons in Warframe. Even early on, there are so many options available to you. But with so many choices, and even more as you level up, it’s hard to know what weapons are genuinely good, and which ones suck. Luckily, I have created a list of a handful of weapons you can use, based on my own personal experience. Lex At a price of 50,000 credits, the Lex seems expensive, but it’s worth the price. This little MR3 hand cannon will do wonders for you. Not only does it deal pretty good damage, but the Lex… [Continue Reading]

Now for Something Completely Different

The Bloody Awful Design of Local Cans of Cola

July 6, 2021June 30, 2021 Medic 0 Comments cola, ramble, random, soft drink, sugar free

I’ll be honest, I like the odd glass of cola. Unlike a lot of people, I’m not too fussed on the whole Coca Cola VS Pepsi war. Ain’t got time for that. However, whenever I have a cola beverage, it has to be sugar free. Now, I’ve rambled about sugar free drinks before. Because I don’t like tea or coffee and most drinks are sugary, I don’t have that many options. Diet and Zero-style colas are generally my best bet if I’m at a restaurant or something. But lately, something has been massively bothering me. The packaging on local brands… [Continue Reading]

A Complete Lack of Desire to do Arbitrations

July 5, 2021June 28, 2021 Medic 0 Comments arbiters of hexis, arbitrations, grind, warframe

The upcoming balance update in Warframe is going to give us some new mods. While I have already talked about why I’m not a fan of those mods, the other reason I’m not a fan is because of Arbitrations. The good mods can be purchased from the Arbiters of Hexis. Thankfully, although these mods will be okay to obtain, it means doing Arbitrations. And I hate doing Arbitrations. Now, to be fair, some things have changed. Arbitrations aren’t nearly as bad as they used to be. But I still have no desire to actually play them. There’s a complete lack… [Continue Reading]

Poor Emboar – Tepig Community Day

July 4, 2021July 3, 2021 Medic 0 Comments community day, pokemon go, tepig

I’m going to be honest. Somehow, I completely forgot about Tepig Community Day. I was under the impression it’d be next week. But no, I was wrong, and July 3rd was Tepig Day. There’s a few… pros and cons around here. Everything about this event feels nerfed. Okay, I get it, there are few Pokemon as interesting as Gible. That day was great. Unfortunately, Tepig just doesn’t have much weight about it. So, even before we start, expectations are lower. But even the spawns and incense felt nerfed. Normally, when a Community Day starts, you get a huge explosion of… [Continue Reading]

The Bidoof Event was Fun

July 3, 2021July 3, 2021 Medic 0 Comments BIDOOF, meme, pokemon go

For the end of June, we had a very silly event in Pokemon GO. Now, most events aren’t particularly serious, but most of the time things are pretty normal. All you get are different spawns, maybe some research and eggs. When the Bidoof Breakout event was announced, everyone just assumed it’d be a normal event, with increased Bidoof spawns. Well, we were… kinda right. Niantic seemed to go all out for this event. Rather than just plonking down some spawns, we actually got a rather odd, general increase. The event started off with just a handful of Bidoof scattered around… [Continue Reading]

Wreck and Ruin

July 2, 2021March 11, 2022 Medicinal Warlock 0 Comments minecraft

A lone stronghold stood in the plains, its banners vibrant, its walls resolute, a shield against whoever may come to conquer these lands. The interiors may not be luxurious, but it had all that is needed for a small group of soldiers to live on. The shelves were stocked, and the soldiers are protected from their foes and the elements within its walls. Alas, no fortifications hold for eternity, and soon the walls and the hopes of men crumbled. With the damages sustained, those who survived had to fall back, as the enemy charged towards them with utmost ferocity. As… [Continue Reading]

Balancing and Being Overpowered in a PvE Game

July 1, 2021June 24, 2021 Medic 0 Comments balance, game design, pve, ramble, rant

One argument that comes up a lot in PvE games is how do you balance them? After all, you’re fighting AI, so balance should be easier, right? After all, there’s no human players around to bother you. You can’t hurt the feelings of AI characters and NPCs. They’re not alive, so they don’t care how badly they get their asses kicked by us. A common argument is that it’s just PvE stuff, so balance doesn’t matter. We can be overpowered all we like, nothing can stop us. But in all honestly, this argument just doesn’t hold up. There needs to… [Continue Reading]

Theorycrafting Thoughts on Galvanized On Kill Effects

June 30, 2021June 23, 2021 Medic 0 Comments galvanized mods, guns, modding, theory, theory crafting, warframe, weapons

Something is bothering me about this upcoming update to gun mods. The idea of buffing guns has always appealed to me. However, I’,m not sure why we’re going down the path we’re going. While I understand that melee was going to get a slap on the butt a little, the gun mods still just… don’t hold water. There seems to be something weirdly off about these new Galvanized mods before we even get them. The whole concept is flawed. Seriously. While the idea behind these mods are cool, there’s something missing here. These mods are all designed to have a… [Continue Reading]
