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…

Top Five most viewed posts
After the Top Five game series, there’s now another top five: the most viewed posts. SDWeasel of Unidentified Signal Source started it, I think. Naithin from Time to Loot followed – and so do I now. The Top Five haven’t changed in years for this blog. The blog posts are from 2012 to 2014 and…

Screenshot Saturday: Tired gaming…
I’ve never been one to sleep in and get up late, but with my new job, I have to get up at 6 am which is about 30 minutes too early for my body and brain. This means I end up very very tired in the evenings. I try to get in some levelling in…

Screenshot Saturday: Dervish in Arkovian Undercity
After months of being much better, my hand decided to get a lot worse again today. I had really wanted to spend the evening gaming, though. Mouse and keyboard doesn’t work at all when my hand is like that. But the gamepad works! So, there’s either Civilization VI or Grim Dawn as these two games…

My Top Games of the Decade
Writing about my Top Games of 2019 was a bit too short-sighted, apparently. I have seen others talk about their games of the decade – most recently Rakuno’s post. And then I figured that I could add another “top games” post here. I mean, it is my blog and it has been filled with lots…
favourite games, games of the decade, grim dawn, Guild Wars 2, jurassic world evolution, L. A. Noire, life is strange, pc gaming, Rift, secret world legends, sherlock holmes: crimes and punishments, Terraria, the painscreek killings, the secret world, torchlight 2, tropico 4, Trove, Warlock II: The Exiled, warlock master of the arcane

Gaming goals for November
I usually don’t like to make something like this as it seems weird to add “goals” to something that should be there for relaxation. However, I tend to spend money on games and then end up not playing them and that seems like a waste of money. So, by adding a few gaming goals, I’ll…

Five games for a year
Naithin shared this writing prompt on the Blaugust Discord channel recently which, I admit, I only saw because I read Rakuno’s answer. It’s a fun one to think about, so I’m definitely adding my own thoughts! The question is simple enough: You can only pick 5 games to play for an entire year. What would…

Which action RPG for a beginner?
A co-worker of bookahnerk’s is thinking of trying out an action RPG. He has never played a game in this genre and asked him if he could recommend Grim Dawn. He had apparently seen it in some “Let’s Play” and it looked interesting. Since I’ve been playing it a lot more than bookahnerk, he asked…

Too many choices in Grim Dawn
When the 2nd (and last) expansion for Grim Dawn was announced, I didn’t think I’d want to buy it on its release day, because I didn’t see that it comes with a new class. And it’s not just any class, it’s the Oathkeeper. A class that from the videos I saw reminded me a lot…

Personal Top 11 of 2018
The last time I’ve done such a list was in 2016. I started this blog post with the title as “top X”, because I have no idea how many games this list will have in the end. When trying to figure out which games should be on the list, my first stop was my Steam…

“I’m sick”-games: ARPGs (Blaugust Post 5)
Yesterday, we went to our dance school and took two classes. I felt fine and even after the 2.5 hours of dancing, I could have still continued! So it came as a bit of a shock when I woke up during the night with an aching throat and this morning, my whole body was aching.…

Action RPGs and me (Blaugust Post 12)
I finally finished playing Torchlight 2 not too long ago. In general, I really liked the game. The pets are cute, but useful, although mostly to send them off sell your found items and bring back more health potions. The story was okay, the settings were great and the bosses were really well done! There…
