Levistras Archives – Time to Loot

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...

Because I’m Batman!

by Naithin | Sep 29, 2019 | Other Games | 2

Right, well, disappointingly in my opinion — this line was not once uttered throughout the opening episode of Telltale’s 2016 ‘Batman – The Telltale Series’. I’m holding out hope that this oversight will be...

Finishing 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...

Quality 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....

Hitting 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...

Playin’ 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...

Teetertot 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...

Ding!

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...

Thrill 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....
