Champions Online

Ok, I finally made a couple of videos for champions online.  It's not a true lets play but I do show you unedited footage of my time just after finishing the tutorial.  I finished the tutorial with someone which I recommend against.  If you due play this game and go thru the tutorial take your time there.  Get to level 7 at least before finishing.  It will make things easier once you get out.

Hope you enjoy.

 

Update for stuff this month

I setup my appointment for dental surgery for the end of the month and I have a follow up on that surgery in March just before a concert I plan to attend.  I'm not sure what to expect after the surgery in terms of gaming.  You may see me on steam or champions not sure if I'll be up to playing.

I have decided for now to hold off getting DC Universe Online until I get some of this dental stuff done.  I hope things don't get too out of control were I have to use credit to pay for some of this.  I'm just now starting to see my overall balance going down.

Working for the state has always been scary but with budgets being what they are I just hope I can get some of the dental work done and still have a job.  I hate/like working for the state but I really hate the bs that goes on.

I'll probably post something after my dental surgery in a couple weeks til then laters.

Working and stuff

Sorry for the lack of updates work has been well work.  Kind of hard to blog and work most of the time let alone at home when I have just enough time to play games sometimes. 

I also went to the dentist the other day which has been a long time coming.  I haven't been since last century so I wasn't surprised that I need to have work done.  Need to have a least one tooth pulled which I knew and other work over time this year.  Insurance is covering a chunk of the cost but most is out of pocket.  I do have the option of payment plan which I think I will do.

Other than that things have been alright.  Got a new hard drive (500 GB) which is going in soon to replace the 250 GB as the main drive.  As soon as I get another anti-virus copy I'm going to spend a day installing windows, anti-virus, steam, tf2 (at least at first) and the games I going to keep playing for now. 

I'm also going to pick up DC Universe Online at some point.  It looks really good and fun.  I'll post an update and let you guys know if and when I get it up and running.

I've been lazy on finishing the next two minecraft videos.  I have the project created I just need to adjust the volume and take out two minutes in the last video.  I hope to work on it tonight and have something posted on youtube tomorrow.

Speaking of minecraft machinima is doing a special stream today with Notch and SeaNanners.  Go check it out it should be good.

Champions Online

Once again I find myself in an MMO.  This one wasn't my first choice but I saw some news that this was going free to play and decided what the frell I'll try it out.

I didn't except that much from the character menu and the custom chooses could be better but since I'm not spending a dime I can't complain much.  The game is very campy with the graphics (almost feels like your on a comic book page).  The controls are ok (you can use either a controller or keyboard) haven't messed with rebinding keys yet.

Haven't really gotten to far into it.  After fighting the invasion I think the game might get better but I'm not holding my breath.

Compared to the starting area for DCUO (DC Universe Online) that I have seen, the starting area sucks.  If anyone else played Champions leave a comment and tell me what your experience was like.
