My One Word? Take A Guess

by dimensionaltales

Your One Word by Evan Carmichael

When creating and running a business, it’s been made sure that you need a brand that’s easily identifiable to the public. Unfortunately, I, like most entrepreneurs, don’t really know where to start when the inevitable task present it. Luckily, I’m currently subscribed to a YouTube channel that is dedicated to helping people “believing in themselves and achieving greatness”. The channel’s name is Evan Carmichael and this bloke is brilliant. I love his energy and dedication and when I learned that he had written a book…

A Book Meant For Gamers

by dimensionaltales

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

I know I said this before but I’ll say it again: I’m a gaymer, though and though. Which makes it that much more mortified when I was late in knowing the existence of this fabulous novel. Fun fact, this is actually the first book I got with my Audible account and for a really good reason – or a simple one. Plain and simple, it was the first book I thought over when I activated my account. Still a great choice, nonetheless.

A Magical Ride…

by dimensionaltales

Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling

So, my best friend, Tyler, had given me two simple yet demanding demands as a credit to my nerdism and my status as a bookworm. He insisted that I give the Harry Potter series a read as I’m a writer. And, since I’m slowly creating a universe for my space opera series among other things, it started to become clear that reading this series would be a good idea. And, with that (in 2018), I began the mission of reading the Harry Potter books.

List of Completed Books Thus Far

by dimensionaltales

As stated in my previous post, I’m part of the 2019 Goodread Challenge (my third year) and have given myself a goal of reading fifty books before the end of the year. Right now, I’m at 33 and, thanks to Audible, I’m predicting that I’m going to finish the challenge before the end of spring. But I’ll just add 25-50 more books to my challenge and read – or listen – on.

A Relaxing Guilty Pleasure

by dimensionaltales

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.

The Bane of Gaming…You Know What I’m Talking About

by dimensionaltales

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”.

My Favorite Nonsensical Fighting Game

by dimensionaltales

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.

Only Four Games Left In A Collection

by dimensionaltales

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.

A Hero of Time (Travel)

by dimensionaltales

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.
