Allow me to extend my appreciating for everybody who has been reading my blog posts. This is still pretty new to me but I think I getting better at it. NOW! I want to share what I want to explore for 2019.
Sending holiday joy and love to all of you!!! I pray that you have a wonderful time with your family and mates. As for me, I will be doing the same thing and taking the day off of writing and planning to give them my undivided attention. It’s either that or my brother is not going to let me live it down.
Name: Fallout Shelter
Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 4)
Style: City Building
Publisher(s): Bethesda Softworks
Developer(s): Bethesda Game Studios & Behavior Interactive
Release Date: June 10, 2018 (for PS4)
Date of Completion: November 4, 2018
City Building video game genre is a guilty pleasure of mine. They’re relaxing, easily accessible and the criminally simple to comprehend. Plus, the replay value is invaluable and infinite compared to any other genre. So far, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King is the only city building game that I dubbed with playing to its entirety because they had enough content and lore to keep me engaged. Now I can add one more to my list: Fallout Shelter.
Name: Knights of Valour
Platform: PS4
Style: Beat ’em Up
Publisher(s): International Games System
Developer(s): Perfect World Games
Release Date: November 18, 2017
Date of Completion: September 30, 2018
This is a classic example of how microtransaction is not only unnecessary but, ultimately and sadly, destroys a potentially good game. Knights of Valour could have been a fantastic game if the developers weren’t so fucking greedy. To avoid going on a raging rant (not really my thing), allow me to be brief about what made this game “the best of the worst”.
Name: Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-
Platform: Varies (I played it on the PS4)
Style: Fighting
Publisher(s): Arc System Works & Team Red
Developer(s):Arc System Works
Release Date: June 7, 2016
Date of Completion: August 12, 2018
Ever played a game that always asked yourself “What the hell was the game about?” or “Is there a clear story to this?” Well, that’s what happens EVERY time I played BlazBlue and, more recently, Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-, the most recent installment to the Guilty Gear series. Of course, as you could imagine, I have zero clues on what the story is about but that’s okay (sort of) because it has a lot of things to offer outside of it.
Name: 1941, Twinklestar Sprites, Captain Commando & Mega Twins from the Capcom Classics Collection
Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 2)
Style: Compilation
Publisher(s): Capcom
Developer(s): Digital Eclipse Software
Release Date: November 14, 2006
Date of Completion: July 14, 2018
While I was working at Origins Game Fair (an amazing tabletop convention), I could only play cooperative or very VERY short games because I had to make sure that everybody’s safe and enjoying themselves. So, when I got a chance, I stand down and play some of the games that were on the Capcom Classics Collection. As you would imagine, it’s a game that has a wide collection of popular games that Capcom created. I beat a few of them but only four of them was for the first time.
Get Rich(er) Sleeping – Investing 101 by Jaspreet Singh
Full Disclosure: This is going to be the shortest review to date because this will be the first time I’m coming across a topic I don’t really care about.
This will be a really short blog post. Why?
Well, since I’ve been writing blogs posts (gaming & book reviews) every day for a good spell (two weeks or so), I don’t have a whole lot to say for this week. Furthermore, I’m working on the details of a 2019 project as we speak revolving around a common denominator with me. I don’t want to talk about it, right now, but I will once everything is ironed out on a preliminary level.
Not this week, though. This week is about spending time with my family and mates. Be sure to do the same, okay? “All work and no play will make you a dull person.” haha
Be safe and be blessed!!!
Please, don’t forget to follow me on my social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, and Goodreads) which are on the right side of my web page. Also, I do love hearing suggestions of what books to read outside of my norm (Science fiction and fantasy) as I am a part of the Goodreads’ reading challenge for 2018.
A Question of Will by Alex Albrinck
As stated at the beginning of my blogs, bio, and almost every social media platform, I love science fiction. The genre is so vast and diverse in its approaches to a rather boring school subject (yes, I’m not that fond of science and, yes, I can see the irony). But one of the topics that science can’t seem to get a solid grasp on happens to be one of my favorite topics: time travel. And, the Aliomenti Saga series explore this topic in a conventional way.
All I Want by Stella Starling
Christmas has a funny sort of magic that even the most spoiled of human beings are susceptible to. Vulnerability and openness are commonly explored around such a holiday in a book and this little beauty is no exception. All I Want is a lovely book by a beautiful woman that is clearly an LGBTQ+ ally or member.
