  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition Shadows of Amn and Throne of Bhaal Review

    Despite the fact that I’ve written other articles on Baldur’s Gate 2, I’ve never yet written a full review of the game itself nor the update with the Enhanced Edition. I think it’s about time I put my thoughts down on the overall experience with this game not just with the Enhanced Edition but even…

  • Diablo 3: PTR Patch 2.7 Season 23 Initial Testing With Wizard Tal Rasha + Firebird Revamp

    So I hopped on the PTR today a few times to give the new Firebird revamp a spin along with checking out the new changes for ones Followers. Initially, I thought that the Tal Rasha 5 piece + Firebird 3 piece would be good but I did encounter issues as I upped the difficulty level.

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition Modded Evil Party Using EEKeeper

    Since I’m nearly done with another round of Baldur’s Gate 2 with a good aligned party using an elven female kensai/mage/thief as my main character (yes, she was modded via EEKeeper), I started toying around once more with how I could improve upon the existing NPCs and make them interesting through EEKeeper. So this blog…

  • Diablo 3: Season 23 Patch 2.7 PTR Announced

    Blizzard just dropped the next PTR 2.7 update announcement and I’m actually pretty excited for once. It’s a pretty huge overhaul to the Follower system and it’s something that I had been calling for a while now. Here are my initial impressions of the upcoming patch.

  • Blizzcon 2021 Impressions Thus Far

    COVID-19 evened out the playing field when it came to Blizzcon in the sense that most people are stuck at home or even trapped in snow (as in Texas). But the good part is that this situation has allowed Blizzard to open up Blizzcon 2021 as a free event that can be viewed through YouTube…

  • Boom Beach: Tank Bombardier Medic Combo Is Great!

    Today was another Imitation Game day which meant huge resource potential. During stage 6, I ended up losing a Grenadier which angered me. However, I’ve felt that the Tank Grenadier Medic combo had been slowly running its course. So I finally made the switch in swapping Grenadiers for Bombardiers and the result was a clean…

  • Path of Exile: Heist Flashback Day I Forget

    Haven’t done a recent blog for Flashback and decided to write a small one just to put more thoughts down. Main thing is that I’ve been leveling a witch/Necromancer using SRS but I’m starting to feel less enthusiastic. Although the experience has been fine, my desire to play her slowly has been diminishing. In turn,…

  • Path of Exile: Heist Flashback, Day 5

    Made more progress last night on pushing a 2nd conqueror. Next up is my least favorite of the 4: Hunter. But I did upgrade some gear with a few lucky drops and my biggest purchase of the league: a 6 link chest.

  • Path of Exile: Flashback Heist League Day 4

    Early yesterday, I managed to finish the story mode and begin mapping. My initial goal was to take out the first Conqueror and then figure out my mapping strategy along with doing some Heists in an effort to gear up. While I have yet to really hit any deaths, I am starting to see small…

  • Path of Exile: Flashback + Heist, Day 3

    So far I’ve been quite engaged in the current Flashback league. I managed to end up in Act 10 and did a few Heists just to continue the questing and leveling process for my followers. The leveling process has been fun compared to the normal Heist league and already I made my first Exalt today.
