Sorry for the lack of content, a combo of being a bit under the weather and playing Fallout 4 almost exclusively (CoC/BB/Dungeon Boss aside) hasn’t sparked a lot of blog content. One thing that I’m still trying to fully pin … Continue reading →

Smed is back, airdrops some hilarity for all of us!

Posted on November 19, 2015 by SynCaine

Really Smed, now you don’t like F2P? Why, because that home you built for SWG fans that wasn’t Pay-4-Power wasn’t as well received as you thought it would be? Because your baby Planetside is shut down after having an abortion … Continue reading →

Fallout 4: Spoiler-free thoughts 10 hours in

Posted on November 11, 2015 by SynCaine

Time for some expanded thoughts about Fallout 4: As mentioned, it certainly feels like a Fallout game, which might sound obvious, but is something that could have been lost (think Diablo 2 vs Diablo 3, for example). I think maybe … Continue reading →

Fallout 4 “had to stop playing to type this but really need to get back to playing it so…” review

Posted on November 10, 2015 by SynCaine

Fallout 4 feels like a Fallout game, just newer/better. Also its not crashing for me on day one, and performance is super-smooth. If you don’t buy it based on that you either hate yourself or hate fun, possibly both. Now … Continue reading →
