Merry Christmas from Star Wars: The Old Republic; Rix’larril’an of the Ascendancy!



Black Desert Online
This Korean title would be the greatest MMO ever made if not for the horrendous monetization system. And the embarrassing translation. And the terrible progression. And the developer's general apathy towards its western audience.
Deus Ex and The Treachery of Labels
Deus Ex Mankind Divided was a clumsy, tone-deaf allegory that thought it was clever, and it managed to annoy people of all political stripes.
Starcraft: Bot Fight
Let's do some scripting to make the Starcraft AI fight itself, and see how smart it is. Or isn't.
The Plot-Driven Door
You know how videogames sometimes do that thing where it's preposterously hard to go through a simple door? This one is really bad.
Secret of Good Secrets
Sometimes in-game secrets are fun and sometimes they're lame. Here's why.

Merry Christmas, Paige Francis!
I wish I knew who you are. You said that you remember comments I’ve made on this blog from 12 years ago, but your name is completely unfamiliar to me.
Regardless, I hope that you and your family have a wonderful holiday. Cheers!
my, how mysterious :>
Happy Easter everyone! :>
Sorry I took so long to respond, Leslee. But I mentioned you in a comment today and wanted to make sure I spelled your name right. I got very, very sick Christmas Eve after a day at my parent’s house, who I found out two days later had actually just recovered from a minor bout with Covid…they didn’t think it was worth mentioning.
But to the point…when I posted here years ago it was under an alias that I used for two decades. I haven’t gone back to see if the comments are still findable here, to be honest. I had some pretty significant life-changing experiences over the last few years and kind of…left that identity behind. Part-rebranding, part-self-discovery.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas everybody!
Merry christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Is it still Christmas over there? It is here.
