What I’ve Been Playing – Boring Gamer Edition

What I’ve Been Playing – Boring Gamer Edition

I wish it were more exciting this week, but it's kind of more of the same.  I'm admittedly in a bit of a rut in my gaming lately. Overwatch I almost wasn't playing this anymore, again.  It's starting to reach a point where it's more frustrating than fun again.  Last weekend had a trial round for the upcoming new hero Juno (maybe it was two weekends ago?).  Juno seems, a little lame honestly.  She is a healer, but it kind of feels like an "easy mode" style healer.  She doesn't need to toggle between healing and damage, so you can…

What I’ve Been Playing – Cruisn’ the USA Edition

It's been a while since I posted about "What I'm Playing". I've done a few specific game posts but no generic ones. Mostly it's been Overwatch. Because I stopped playing Fortnite and apparently I hate myself because I can't NOT play a grindy shooter game. I'm probably not going to really talk about Overwatch. I've finished the base Ultrawatch Pass already, helped out because I bought the Ultimate pass like a sucker because it had Kaiju skins, but it had 20-level tier skips. I still have titles to try for, which is another 100 levels. I also spent my Mythic…
Overwatch Season 11 – Super Mega Ultrawatch

Overwatch Season 11 – Super Mega Ultrawatch

Overwatch has just launched Season 11, and it's paying tribute to Tokusatsu. A lot of folks are calling it the Power Rangers season, but the designs on the sentai skins are closer to the bug eyed Kamen Rider than to Power Rangers. Power Rangers usually have a more themed helmet for each team and solid visors not bug eyes. There are also several monster skins that are more of a nod to Kaiju, though nothing super directly "Godzilla" or anything. Road Hog has probably the closest thing to a Godzilla skin and Zenyatta is wearing some dinosaur pajamas. There is…

What I’ve Been Playing

I've been, really bad about keeping up on these. Oh well. Anyway, let's take a little trip down what I've been playing since uh... (checks notes) ... wow, January. I'm definitely going to forget some things. Horizon: Zero Dawn I started this one a while back, then in traditional fashion, got distracted and stopped playing it. I don't really know why, it's quite a lot of fun. I got just out of the initial starting zone and to the point where the plot started actually moving along and just sort of, got overwhelmed, I suppose. I often try not to…

Weekly Wrap Up (01.14.2024 to 01.20.2024)

Hey yo, not dead, just busy mostly. I forget if I mentioned it at all before, but starting right off at the beginning of the year I started doing some night classes through a work deal, so that has been eating up a lot of time. They run 3 nights a week for like 5 hours. The last one is on Tuesday though, so that will be over, until the next one I've signed up for at the end of February. The class currently is a CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Administrator) prep class. I am pretty sure it also includes…
