For those of you who follow me, you know that I frequently publish content on MMOGology.com. However, that site is primarily dedicated to the academic analysis of online gaming communities. I have a lot to say about video games and not all of it is always academic in nature. So, I have decided to resurrect this old gaming blog of mine, where I will talk about all things gaming that are not academic in nature, including reviews, frustrations, and sweet, sweet, loot.

MMOs: More Than Meets the Eye?

I just wanted to share a friends blog post in which he explains why he isn’t into MMOs. Although I disagree with his outlook on MMOs, I think that he makes a good point, that they have lost something that the pen and paper games had.

Wife aggro

I can’t even count the times I have been in a group or raid, and someone has left because their husband or wife is having a fit over their gaming habits. It can be quite a nuisance, especially if it breaks up the group when you have spent hours getting to the bottom of that dungeon. There have even been times others have gone link dead, and when they come back later they say their wife turned off their computer. This is extremely annoying, and I can only imagine that if it annoys me, how the gamer must feel.
Intern at Citadel of Sorcery

I’ve recently been accepted as an intern at MMO Magic, working on the upcoming MMO Citadel of Sorcery as a level designer. I am pretty excited, not only because the game has quite a few intriguing aspects, but also because as far as writing goes I am now doing something that is more in tune with my heart. I love writing fiction. Of course I enjoy writing interviews, articles, and such, but creative writing is really where my heart is, and I love that I now have a professional outlet to express that artistic ability. It also works well since I am going to school to get a degree in creative writing. If you haven’t checked out the game you can do so at the link above:)
