The Day of the Dusters
Today I broke down and bought the Troublemaker Duster for my Smuggler in SWTOR. I had been eyeing it for a while and the price finally came down from the "hell no!" range into the "okay, this is excessive for vanity but I'll get it anyway" price range. I've been...
When Games Go Free To Play, How Do Existing Subscribers Feel?
I have been thinking about how different I feel as a subscriber of two games that have both gone to a Free to Play model after their initial releases as subscription games. The way I feel as a customer is very different between Star Wars: The Old Republic and Rift. In...
Is This Thing On?
Oh hey there. Look at what I found in my browser favorites list, the link to my blog dashboard. I have been highly unmotivated to spend time on this thing lately haven't I? With summer and way too many games on my docket, I don't see that changing much. But I took a...
A Few Defiance Tips From A Newbie
I made time today to play Defiance so I could do the episode quest line before the premier. It was a fun chain of quests, I certainly recommend it. Here are a few of my lessons learned. Tactics matter: If you are grouped, use flanking and draw fire off each other,...
So Much To Do, So Little Time

Blog Neglect
Yes folks, I've been guilty of blog neglect. This isn't more than a fluff piece, hello to you all, screen cap, quick update toss up though, sorry. I've been playing SWTOR and Rift a lot lately. My husband and I finished up the Bounty Hunter story quests with levels to...
Happy One Year Anniversary Star Wars: The Old Republic!
I wanted a really iconic location for setting off my celebratory fireworks, so what else should I do but head to Tatooine and jump into a Sarlaac pit?! Congratulations on your first MMO year Bioware. Hoping to wish you many more of these, looking forward to what you...
What Can You Do In Rift Dimensions?
A few people have asked me about dimensions so I figured I'd pull a few screen captures together with a bit of explanatory text. I have a few complaints about the controls, but it has been pretty easy to be creative. You get a free small starter dimension from a...
Amazing People Worthy of Respect Not Mockery
The next time I find myself tempted to mock George Lucas over my dislike of Jar Jar Binks, or who shot first, I'm going to remind myself that this is a man worthy of my respect. He cares enough about children to push a lot of his fortune into his own charity and now...
