No Place for Old PvPers

Mailvaltar recently wrote about the cool stuff that just doesn’t happen in ‘safe’ MMORPGs and it got me to thinking about days gone by when I was really into open-world PvP MMOs myself. It seems like so long ago. And I suppose...

Recently Belghast posted on giving up the chase for the ‘Forever Game’. It didn’t really occur to me at the time of Bel’s post, but it has occurred to me since with my return to Monster Hunter: World. While the...

So… *twiddles thumbs* …I’ve kinda done something just a wee bit crazy. Yesterday I wrote about selecting a mere 5 games to last an entire year. I also encourage others to think about what their list might look like, and already...

Now, I’m not much of one to partake in Halloween generally. But I came across something truly terrifying that I had to share. No, terrifying isn’t enough. It’s horrifying. Any other time of year, I might’ve had a quiet...

It’s been a wee while since I’ve done a post in this format. I’d actually been struggling a bit with what I wanted to turn this into and how I wanted to carry it forward into the future. Looking back, the last time was for No...

by Naithin | Oct 7, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 0
And the Uber Penguin did not win. While I’m also dealing with Penguin in the Telltale Batman game I don’t mean that one. No no, this Uber Penguin belonged to Asheron’s Call. The Uber Penguin is a metal encased cyborg-like level...
Read MoreTime to Loot Journal: September 2019
by Naithin | Oct 1, 2019 | Asheron's Call, Journal, Other Games, WoW | 6
September was a month largely about returning to a sense of normalcy. The spectre of potential health issues being lifted and work returning to a more settled flow after the last round of restructuring being the primary drivers. Asheron’s...
Read MoreFinishing the Facility Hub
by Naithin | Sep 28, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 0
Sure, I finished it about 20 levels later than intended. But I did! The last level gate on the last quest location from the hub was level 45 after all. I’m now 66 (although I was 65 when I wrapped up the Hub). I sort of got myself a tad...
Read MoreQuality of Life Improvements
by Naithin | Sep 24, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 2
I had to make a really hard call last night. A call that went against my nature. Against all instinct. All understanding of what is ‘right’. But I did it anyway. And uh… So far it’s been… Yeah, pretty alright honestly....
Read MoreHitting Goals and Making New Ones
by Naithin | Sep 22, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 2
Asheron’s Call excels at having enough systems and ‘stuff’ in it for players to create their own goals and path to success. Some will require you to really stretch and dedicate yourself to their achievement, others you can simply...
Read MorePlayin’ by new Rules
by Naithin | Sep 15, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 0
Some people love creating additional rules for themselves to play a game. Sometimes it’s quite simple — playing in a hardcore or ‘one life’ mode in a game that doesn’t officially support it. Sometimes they’re...
Read MoreTeetertot Moments
by Naithin | Sep 9, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 6
Only a week ago, I was trying out Asheron’s Call again for the first time in what I estimate must be at least 10 years. Fourteen if you take it from when I last ‘seriously’ played. And I almost bounced off entirely. I was so close...
Read MoreDing!
by Naithin | Sep 5, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 6
Well alright, maybe more than just one ding. I very almost didn’t get a post out at all tonight on account of wanting to extract every moment possible of play until better sense took over and drove me to bed. I made a fair bit of progress...
Read MoreThrill of the Hunt
by Naithin | Sep 4, 2019 | Asheron's Call | 8
In EverQuest you camp. WoW has you questing. But in Asheron’s Call you go hunting. Ranging out near the edge of the safe lands. The pillars mark the edge, although it is still a transition and riding the edge can reap some rewards if careful....
