games… and more games…

As it’s pretty much summer and the 6 weeks holidays are looming, gaming is starting to take a backseat.  I thought it might be time to update my games currently being played and games I’d like to play in the near future. MMOs: Unsurprisingly, the allure of Black Desert Online has worn off.  I thought…

Blaugust Day 14 ~ Coastal shots

Last post before I go on holiday – posts 15 – 20 will be not be written. As it’s Friday again, I thought I’d post some more screenshots to a theme.  This time – the coast. 1. Landmark.  A very pretty misty dawn shot. 2. Vanguard: Saga of Heroes.  Shot of Tawar Galan with the…

Video: Landmark

trying out a new style of blogging – vlogging I guess 😛  So I’ve just made a very short video showing off the delicious sea and sea-sounds in Landmark. I apologise in advance for the very hissy S sounds and some breathing sounds (nervous!!) – not sure if my mic is too close or if…

Landmark: a basic build

I am very much distracted by Elder Scrolls Online right now, however I have been dipping into Landmark when I’m in the mood.  I’m quite pleased with my latest build, basic as it is.  I have had a few different claims which didn’t go so well, I think I just started too big and should…

Landmark (is fun!)

Well I caved and got myself into EQ Landmark beta and I am really, really glad I did.  The introduction was fabulous, I truly hope other game studios are looking at the openness, enthusiasm and level of interaction from SOE, it is truly refreshing (and the enthusiasm is contagious!)  The graphics are very nice (a little cartoony…
