Star Wars: The Old Republic – First Gameplay Videos

This came out about 5 days ago but it was nowhere to be found on my RSS feeds: http://media.pc.ign.com/media/816/816935/vids_1.html

Looks wonderful, I can’t wait until this comes out. Finally an MMO where taking on more than one NPC is normal and won’t get your ass handed to you.

Recent Gaming Endeavours

And that title of course means what I’ve done recently in WoW.

I hit 75 last Sunday night and that felt good because now I finally have the shadowpriest ability that allows me to do massive AoE damage while still in shadowform. Since 65 I’ve increased my haste and SP considerably but I’ve dropped about 10% in crit chance. Now I get more consistent damage which is nice.

Finally done playing Diablo 2

After 8 and a half year and 3-4000 hours of playing on at least 5 computers I’m done with Diablo 2. And I know it’s final this time because I’ve had my CD-Keys banned and I’m not buying a third set.

Oh no I got my CD-Keys banned? Diablo 2 is the kind of game where a large number of users have, at least at one point in time, use some sort of maphack at the very least. In most games a maphack would be useless but Diablo 2 had randomly generated maps every time you join or made a new game in multiplayer. There were discernible patterns that I picked up on after playing for a long time but that is not nearly as sweet as pressing 1 on the numpad and teleporting to the next level faster than humanly possibly.
