I really didn’t have a blog post for today. But I was toying with Dragon Age:Origins – Awakening. I haven’t played it since I ran through the week it released. So, I dragged Kasha in. She has excellent form I must say.
But this particular darkspawn really seems to have a gift for sign language, on top of speech. Guess that blade through his thigh ticked him off.
What a weekend! I’m playing WoW again, sure after five months away I’m a bit rusty. But that’s ok. I have all my girls settled into their new homes, and have taken my grandmother’s dating advice. Play the field.
My Hunter is now a Dwarf, joining my Shammy, and Rogue in Parallel where I was pleasantly surprised to find everyone I played with before I quit! Over the weekend, after I reinstalled from scratch, my Shammy gained two levels, a set of heirloom shoulders, and 31 pets. My Hunter, before the switch from Night Elf to Dwarf supplied the badges after hitting the weekly raid boss. Was that joking and screwing around I heard on vent? Yes! yes it was!! My mage and Warlock on Kael’thas have gone horde as well, joining our hordeside guild. And of course there’s my three 80 horde gals on Ratters server.
I’ve decided to find the fun in the game again. Not sit and sulk because it isn’t all up in my face. If I get bored at 80, I have lowbies. If I get bored with Alliance I have horde.
I’m not worrying about gear upgrades either. Cataclysm isn’t far off, and Blizzard usually makes sure they have you at least ready for the early end game stuff by the time you hit the level cap. If I get to raid, great, if I get something nice that drops, good. If not…well who cares?
You know what? Maybe I’ll get that shammy to 80. Maybe I won’t. But at least I’m back, and happy. Content even.
But I still wish my mage could look like this…
All hail the awesome that IS the Lady Troll, with the power of the PINK MOHAWK! Formerly human level 31 mage. Now, improved and made of awesome sauce.
So, last night in guild chat, we chatted a bit about Dragon Age Origins. I mentioned, how in my first playthrough, I was clueless. I did NOT know there were romance options until Alistair swooped in. We were running around, killing the bad guys left and right, and I accidently clicked on him. Usually this would just lead to a list of things I can ask him, but not this time. No. Apparently I had crossed the mystery line into “Hai! I love you!”.
The conversation is in the video below. He had asked if I’d miss the constant battle, I replied miss it, or miss you? So when he made his little confession there, I said I don’t know, it’s too soon. I panicked, I admit it. Well, of course watch the video. You’ll see what happened and I went to “No, I liked it!” real fast. Bonus here, is tmp (user name) on the DA forum thread I hang out in (300 pages and counting), made a little tiny mod JUST for this scene. We thought it would be funny if they player’s character looked like she’d just had her world rocked…
Indeed, swooping is good. This is my current rogue, being swooped.
If I ever find the link I’ll edit this post to add it.
So, Jessrayje the shadow priest…went to Naxx to take some pot shots at the Grobbulus guy. And now? I know how gnomes must feel. Ya ever try to do frogger surrounded by beef? I’m just a teeny delicate thing, everyone’s bigger than me! And, trolls have cuter feet. Yes, I have foot envy. I admit I was a bit skittish, old habits die hard, and I had to try not to Psychic scream every time our undead rogue came into view.
But it’s ok! They make good security, cuz ya know…I’m a rockstar!
Oh, also, they’re awesome. No, noone paid me to say that. Yet. I hear the check is in the mail however.
Sidenote: when finishing nax, flying into the Alliance town …bad idea. REALLY bad idea. That frilly guy with the Varian hairdo that hangs out there, really packs a wallop.
