My MMOs in 2020
No new MMO has made it on my list this year. I did give New World a try, but ultimately ended up not liking it. It’s okay and I am still curious to see whether Amazon can release a solid MMO and continue supporting it, but it’s just not for me. In general, I played…

Which MMO does Halloween best?
I really like the autumn and halloween events in MMOs! When I saw ArenaNet announce the date for their Halloween event (it starts today, by the way) for Guild Wars 2 this year, I started to wonder: What other MMOs do them? It is a bit of a silly question because I play these MMOs,…

Vacation Gaming Goals
Plans were made, then Corona happened. Instead of getting to visit my Greek friends, we’re staying home. I already had some vacation days while bookahnerk worked. These were basically to make up for working overtime and I used the free time to work on my dissertation. Now we’re looking at two weeks of vacation time…

My MMOs in July 2020
I am still pondering whether to continue with WoW Classic or not. The lack of Burning Crusade is just too severe for me and I really want my Draenei mage! Although, since we’re playing Horde, this would probably rather be a Blood Elf paladin. Having paladins and shaman on both sides was a really good…

Send help! – Games I’ve been playing in June
I bought both Project Hospital and Old World a couple of weeks ago. One evening, I couldn’t decide if I wanted to play Project Hospital or continue playing Old World. Project Hospital is a hospital simulation/management game and Old World is a turn-based strategy game. So both are different enough – and yet, I couldn’t…

Screenshot Saturday: First Look at Western Skyrim
The last chapter of Elder Scrolls Online, Greymoor, launched last week and it brought us one new zone, Western Skyrim. It’s a beautiful zone and does remind me of the Elder Scrolls Skyrim game. I never got that far in the game, so I can’t tell if there are any landmarks that appear in both…

ESO: Ding 50 for the first time!
My templar’s been in her mid-40s for such a long time and I never could quite make myself play her – other than doing crafting dailies and maybe one quest here and there. But in the past couple of weeks, I’ve just felt more and more at home in Elder Scrolls Online. So tonight, I…

Games I’ve been playing – April 2020
I just got used to it being April and then this month is over already. But since we got to spend so much time in our new flat, I can’t complain about not getting enough gaming time. The list of games played this month is accordingly rather long. Although I would say that I spent…

Screenshot Saturday: Deshaan in ESO
There’s not much to say about this. I just liked the view. The citizens rebuilding their village while there’s something brewing in the distance. My templar is level 48 now, so she’s getting closer to max level. And so far, I don’t think the first thing I’ll want to do is switch to an alt…

ESO: Gloomspore Guar Calf in my Crate
Today’s login reward (if you logged on every day this month) is a preview of the Gloomspore Crate. The reward in that is the Gloomspore Guar Calf, a non-combat pet. I just love guars so much! My Argonian has the Guar mount (the Glowgill Guar) and usually the Hot Pepper Bantam Guar with her. Now…

Screenshot Saturday: Level 46 in ESO
I’m slowly making my way to level 50 – which will lead towards the CP grind, apparently. But it’s still nice being able to just explore the game, do a few quests here or there and getting to know the world that way. I did play Skyrim, but not far into the story and I…

Finally settling into ESO
For months, I’ve been saying how much I love ESO and that I just need to get into the game… and then I did only log on to do crafting dailies. However, two things have changed recently. I joined a German guild with a trader, but they’re mostly a casual social guild that also tries…

Duoing in Elder Scrolls Online
Bokoahnerk and I try to get duos in all the MMOs that we’re playing together. Most of the time, these are hardly ever played. But at least, they do exist for the times that we want to play together like that. A long time ago, I made a second Dragonknight (my main was a Dragonknight…

My mini mes in 2020
It’s become a bit of a tradition to show off my mini mes during blogging months. Back in August 2015, I made the first post. Then there was a bit of a gap until November 2018 where I did the second one. August 2019 had the third post. And now it’s time for the fourth…

Screenshot Saturday: New mini-me in ESO
Just after reaching level 40 with my Templar, I decided to give the nightblade a try. So far, she’s tiny and the class choice isn’t noticeable. I don’t have many skills yet and am mostly just swishing my dagger and sword into the air hoping to scratch the enemy enough for them to give up…
