Good morning! How are you? I’m good. I’m very good. I am not hiding illegal weapons in a lizard. Can I get you something? Tea, laxatives, snake venom antidotes? There is no snake venom in the tea, nor are there snakes hiding in the bathroom sink. Nothing for you? All right, then. Please, make yourself at home, this house is not infested by silverfish the size of VW minibuses. No one is watching you through a sniper rifle scope that I am aware of.
Are you all right? You seem tense. You are not being set up by the CIA due to being in this house. Perhaps you’d like to watch a movie without any subliminal messages inserted by Fidel Castro? What do you mean I keep saying disturbing things? Every reassurance I give you is factually true, you’re really jumpy. Just leave your What Are You Playing entry down in the comments, it won’t cause your computer to catch fire specifically.
​Andrew Ross (@dengarsw): ​OK, this weekend I’ll try to play Crowfall finally. Naturally, Pokémon Go will happen as well, but I’m a bit more excited than usual, as there’s a whale watching event and open lighthouse (read: restricted gym) coinciding on the same day in the same location. There’ll be more people than usual, and hopefully some whales of the non-digital, non-player variety.
Brianna Royce (@nbrianna, blog): Hmm, between PAX and coming down with the plague that is currently happening to me as I type this, I’m not sure what I’ll be doing. My The Elder Scrolls Online sub is active, but I’ve actually spent more time in Guild Wars 2 this week, so probably one of those two again. I also picked up what looks to be an interesting trader-centric 4X mobile game (Star Nomad 2) and need to dig into that.
Eliot Lefebvre (@Eliot_Lefebvre, blog): I am going to be happy when I’m done with PAX, because driving up to Boston repeatedly? It’s not super fun. Final Fantasy XIV, though? That’s fun. I should play more of that. And, yes, my last week of WildStar as well.
Justin Olivetti (@Sypster, blog): Is wanderlust hitting me just yet? …nah, I’m pretty content to ping-pong between Lord of the Rings Online and World of Warcraft, as I have both leveling characters and endgame characters in both. There are always other MMOs that might be worth playing, if I ever had the time, like FFXIV, Guild Wars 2, and WildStar, but truth be told, it’s always easier to stick with what you’re doing than head elsewhere.
MJ Guthrie (@MJ_Guthrie, blog): I am back home and back to gaming! I am seriously going to dive into as much as I possibly can. I have more challenges to bang out in order to get my The Secret World gravity skates, I have a cliffside home to finish in Conan Exiles, I have dinos to feed and tame in ARK: Survival Evolved as well as a few raids to do, mastery levels to gain in Trove, tradepacks to make and farms to tend in ArcheAge, houses to decorate in EverQuest II, and oh so much more. I haven’t been in Shards Online in a while, or Shroud of the Avatar, and so many others. Any chance we can extend the weekend by, say, two more weeks?
Your turn!
