This post coming right after the one about not having enough time to play swtor is strange I know. After all adding in another game isn’t exactly going to give me more time. However, I got Diablo 3 for free because of my warcraft annual pass and so I was always going to try it. It didn’t cost me anything so why not? So far I’ve just finished Act 1, I’ve entered the Act 2 area and wandered around some but that’s as far as I’ve got.

Swtor timeout
I haven’t been playing Star Wars: The Old Republic at all. I don’t think I’ve logged on for at least a month, time gets away from you and so I’m not sure how long it’s been exactly. I logged on very briefly to check out the legacy system but I hadn’t played properly for a couple of weeks before that. I still have a subscription to it though and I actually still think it’s a good deal, but I’m not playing – why?
When raids go wrong
We’ve all had those nights where content you should have down cold is kicking your butt. When it happens on consecutive raids, or on successive weeks, or both well guilds have broken up over less. Dealing with raids going wrong without blowing a gasket is a skill and one I’m certainly not going to claim I have mastered. However, there are a few points that I want to make.
Another look at account achievements
The other day Ghostcrawler made a post about account wide achievements. I wrote about these, what I wanted to see, and what I was scared about, just a couple of days after Mists Monday in March. However, this new information, while it’s not concrete as it’s still beta, is a lot more specific than the speculation we had before, and therefore needs looking at again.
Addon Reliance
Been a bit lazy lately with blogging. I ran out of steam and saved up articles and then let it slide. I don’t want to do that and so I’m going to try my best to blog regularly.
I challenge to you name one warcraft player who doesn’t have at least one addon. If you can name one I’ll be surprised, and I’ll also call whoever you named an idiot. A lot of addons are quality of life improvements, some are essential and it’s surprising how quickly you integrate the use of them, and how much you miss them when suddenly they aren’t there.
