Everquest is due to celebrate its 12th anniversary in the next couple of days, with the return of all the usual events there. I’ll be covering that in a post once it actually starts, but in the EQ site post foreshadowing it, I also saw this rather interesting bit of news: Grand events are afoot in EverQuest II starting later this month, where mysterious apparitions have been sighted! Portals through time have been appearing around Norrath, linking this age to […] As promised, Maltheas persuaded Glopp, the Froglok Ninja of Marr, to go through yesterday’s quest again, in order to pick up the distilleries for Maltheas to play with. From the left, we’ve got the Small Thurgadin Distillery, the raw reward from the Thurgadin Ice Brew quest. Then we have the Mechanized Thurgadin Distillery, and finally the Super Mechanized Thurgadin Distillery. Amazing what you can do with a little Ratonga tinkering know-how! Three distilleries might be considered excessive by […] It’s Brewday again in the land of Norrath, and Maltheas was all set for some adventure! He was wearing green anyway, but made sure to pick out his flying carpet from last years antics, and set his Bauble of Holidays Past to Shamrock. Grabbing Cheeves on the way out, they set off for the nearest entrance to the fabled Bar of Brell, conveniently situated just outside Qeynos in Antonica. Warning: This adventure will be a massive spoiler for anyone who […] OK, the Geminoid robot is (probably) nothing to do with Richard Garriott, though it does look rather like him in my opinion! What does fill me with terror is that robots have developed facial-hair technology. A fine moustache, as everybody knows, renders you almost unstoppable. Such realistic robots could be amongst us, even now. Episode 9 of the Claims of the Normal podcast is up, and I was once again dragged in to discuss many things, some of which I even had intelligent opinions on. You can find it over here. We had quite a long discussion of Rift, by which I mean that I went on about it for about ten minutes until made to stop. Osgard and Snorty pause for a quick picture with the Guardian Leaders in Sanctum My dwarven pal, Osgard, has had many adventures across the MMO worlds, but perhaps his best known role was as a Dwarven Engineer in Warhammer Online. He also occasionally visits Azeroth in the form of a hunter. It seemed fitting then, to try to combine the two, and the result has worked fairly well so far. Saboteur was an obvious base, granting him bombs […] I’ve been playing Rift quite solidly for the last few days, but I fancied a change today. Been getting a little frustrated with the contribution system there, as I mentioned here. Having to run my stable of alts through exactly the same quests is also slightly wearing, so venturing in a land where there is little or no set track for advancement is rejuvenating. Off I trotted to the Fippy Darkpaw progression server! With Rift running distraction, Zoltoon has not […] |
