Boom Beach: Low Level Prototype Defense of Choice
Today, I had a very interesting experience where another player attacked me roughly 3 times with troops and maybe a dozen times total (not sure if he was cheating and/or scouting me out). At any rate, his actual attacks failed every single time. Though lower level than me, I could tell that even if he…

Baldur’s Gate 2: More Character Mod’ing with EE Keeper
So once again, I decided to try some hacks with EE Keeper. Now, previously, I was able to change the NPCs into classes that were far more interesting than what they were provided. There wasn’t any technical penalties thus far in the game. The next question is whether I could try a few other combinations,…

Diablo 3: The Shadow Mantle Build
Although Season 8’s Haedrig Gift for Demon Hunters will not be the Shadow Mantle set, I decided to goof around a little with this set and see what felt good in trying to come up with a reasonable build. This is by no means a meta build nor is it meant for ultra high Greater…

Boom Beach: The (Sluggish) Road to HQ 20
This morning I finally managed to get to XP 47 and acquired enough resources to begin building a HQ 19. I still haven’t finished my goals while I was working towards HQ 19, which was to really push my landing craft. But the opportunity came up and I decided to go for it and use…

Diablo 3: Season 8 Class Sets and Starter Character
Season 7 is ending soon and we won’t be seeing any new content for Season 8 beyond changing up the Haedrig’s Gift sets. The good news is that we can begin examining the choices for characters based partly on what the next group of Haedrig’s Gift sets has to offer. Although there hasn’t been any…

Boom Beach: The Painful Grind to HQ Level 19
HQ Level 18 was something I looked forward to for a while mostly because I would get access to Scorchers. There’s a few other upgrades that would make this level one to strive for, including the next-to-the-last level Sculptor and some killer armory upgrades. However, between here and HQ level 19, it feels like taking…

Boom Beach: How to Avoid Being A Complete Noob
I’m going to come out of the closet right now and say that I’m a Boom Beach addict. Yes, I killed one addiction (World of Warcraft) for another. Now that I’ve gotten that part out of the way, I wanted to share some strategies that I’ve been learning over the past year or so of…

Pokemon Go: Why I Uninstalled This Game Immediately
I won’t lie and say that I didn’t want to be part of the whole hype train burgeoning around the Pokemon Go craze when it first started. However, it took me at least three days of logging on and off before I could even register because of the server instability. Once I managed to bypass…

Overwatch: Why I Won’t Buy This Game
I don’t want to come off as a hater of this game. Quite the contrary, I want to like this game but in general, I just am not an FPS type of person. Certainly, I am not a moba type of player either, both of which seem to be combined in this game. But because…

Old Game Reviews: Heroes of Might and Magic 5
While I probably should start off the series with an earlier version of Heroes of Might and Magic, I wanted to do 5 first mostly because I don’t recall enough of the earlier versions where I could belt out a fair review. However, I played 5 fairly extensively and had it on my list of…
