Mr Breki and Mr Petter were kind enough to invite me on as the special guest for the relaunch of their Claims of the Normal Podcast. It was the first time I’d done anything quite like it, and there’s probably several minutes of me just going “Ummm”. I also say “Basically”, “actually”, and “pretty much” vastly too often.

For the first time, it was set to a musical accompaniment starring the best of British. Queen, T-Rex, the Beatles, and the Clash to name but a few! In the interest of getting the most out of the taxes spent on it (well worth it, mind you), it […] Continuing on from Part 5. I need to get my dancing feet on if we’re going to check out any new features, as this phase of the beta is due to end today. 5:00 pm GMT, 31st of December That being the case, I’ve just been bashing my way through the Divine Landing quests, harvesting resources when I can. I expect if I keep on going I’ll either find a crafting trainer, or one or more dynamic rifts. The server […] Continuing from Part 4. 1:57 am GMT, 31st of December We’re coming up after another patch, and Osgard has just arrived in the main Rift world at Divine Landing in Silverwood.
