I'm still here! I know you were worried. Most of my time has been going to things like work and family these days. I guess I am finally grown up? Games are still being played though, just my blogging about them has slowed down considerably. It wasn't long ago that I posted 5 times a week. However, those days, like my WAR audience, are gone.
The last couple of weeks I have been playing a lot of Marvel Heroes. It is surprisingly fun. I'm not a comic book fan, but I like the Marvel movies and older TV shows/games. So I am familiar with most of the bigger named characters. The game is very low overhead too. I can jump in for 30 minutes and have fun. Captain America is who I have been playing the most of and he's a lot of fun.
Star Trek Online, sigh. I have not been playing much lately and the future is not looking good. I don't want to go into it too much, but their response to the whole lesbian Klingon flap was pretty bad. I couldn't care less about the original issue, but when you persecute someone, who you admit did nothing wrong, because of their beliefs it is just wrong. I'm not sure how I can support them now.
Return of Reckoning... I really like this project. They have done an awesome job, and I'd actually really like to help out with programming. However, after some thought, I just can't risk getting sued by Games Workshop. I know an actual lawsuit isn't likely, but that's not a risk I can take at this point in my life. Which is a shame, there is so much potential there to learn and do cool stuff for players.
Not just one Overton window
