WRUP: Recidivist edition

I was clean. I had been clean for a very long time. Considering my general feelings toward Star Wars as a whole and the amount of time that had elapsed, I was pretty much completely certain that I was done with Star Wars: The Old Republic for good. And then I went and saw the new movie, and now… well, here we go again. Back in the game all over again.

If you want my spoiler-free review of the new movie, just go see it already. I’ve already seen it twice.

Of course, the game we’re all playing right now is What Are You Playing, wherein the small number of Massively Overpowered staffers not sleeping off holiday and New Year’s binging let you know what we’re playing this weekend while you let us know what you’re doing down in the comments. That’s still technically recidivism, but we go back to this game every weekend. It’s not unusual.

Brianna Royce (@nbrianna, blog): Happy New Year everyone! I poked my head into Marvel Heroes and Guild Wars 2 today… but it was Marvel Heroes that captured my attention. So I hope to play a bit of that this weekend!

Eliot Lefebvre (@Eliot_Lefebvre, blog): Yeah, obviously I’m playing Star Wars: The Old Republic. I’m not neglecting my characters in Final Fantasy XIV either, though! Plenty of stuff to do.

Justin Olivetti (@Sypster, blog): Right now I’m in the thick of the early game in Final Fantasy XIV, leveling up each class to 15 to see which one I want to be. Apart from that, I wouldn’t mind a little The Secret World dabbling and I’d like to wrap up Life is Strange.

MJ Guthrie (@MJ_Guthrie, blog): I finally get to see the new Star Wars movie, so while I don’t expect much game-time, I am pretty sure I will end up back in SWTOR shortly afterward — even if it is just to pelt hot droids with snowballs! If I squeeze in other gaming time, there are holiday grinds for goodies in LOTRO, TSW, and EverQuest II. Oh, and playing with dinos in ARK: Survival Evolved; there’s always time to play with dinos!

Patreon Donor Pierre: For the first week-end of 2016, I have a lot on my plate. After viewing the new Star Wars movie, I couldn’t resist going back to SWTOR, leveling a smuggler this time. The Elder Scrolls Online will be my alternate MMO when I have enough of the futuristic universe. I also started a new playthrough of Fallout 3, probably because I enjoyed playing Fallout 4 and wanted a similar but slightly different post-apocalyptic world to explore.

Patreon Donor ThatChefDude: This weekend I will be recovering from some drunken revelry on Thursday evening and hopefully finishing up Fallout 4 on Friday and Saturday, so I can return to regularly scheduled dungeons and raiding with my FC in FFXIV. Happy New Year to all!

Your turn!
