No Man Left Behind; We’re All Wizards Now

Scopique October 17, 2019

No Man Left Behind Star Citizen continues to make headway, although not as quickly as many people would like. The recent 3.7 patch introduced several new features like caves, ship rentals, and other quality of life improvements. On its face, there’s really…

A Study of Flight Controllers

Scopique October 15, 2019

Right now I have the venerable Logitech/Saitek X52 Pro HOTAS (HOTAS stands for “hands-on throttle and stick” which is a lot less NSFW than it sounds) and I like it a lot. In Elite Dangerous, I never have to use a keyboard…

Weekend Update – 10/5/19

Scopique October 7, 2019

Destiny 2 I have been spending an OK amount of time in Destiny 2, moreso than I had previous to this weekend, and moreso than any other game this weekend. Nothing has really changed in the game for me except that I…

Space Cadet for the Weekend of 9/14/19

Scopique September 16, 2019

I have decided that I am a “space-themed game” gamer. I prefer sci-fi over fantasy in general, so it makes sense that I gravitate more towards sci-fi games than I do high-fantasy games. Generally, I believe the market backs me up in…

Stuff and Things: Sept 6/7 2019 Edition

Scopique September 9, 2019

I never know how to name these weekend update posts in a way that makes them understandable when I look back on them in a few months. As promised, I need to roll back my earlier statement that Gears of War 5…

Devil, Thy Name Is Marketing

Scopique September 6, 2019

I had an idea on what I was going to write about this morning, but when I focused in on the specifics — you know, like, words — I realized that I didn’t really have much to say. Instead, I’ll Bob-Ross-Brush-Slap my…

Duskers and BaroTrauma

Scopique August 28, 2019

I’m in a weird place right now. I want to play games, but I also want to work on my motion graphics stuff. I want to stream, but I don’t want to put in the effort. When I want to play a…

Cynicism, Hype, and the Space In Between

Scopique August 21, 2019

Boilerplate: I am not a psychologist or psychiatrist. I just talk a lot and people get tired of listening will say anything to get me to shut up. But back to the topic at hand… The Notorious Belghast dropped a cryptic Tweet…

No Man’s Sky – Beyond

Scopique August 19, 2019

It’s here! The latest update to one of the most maligned games in the past five years! This update brings in a whole lot of low-level quality of life improvements to the game, none of which are particularly ground-breaking on their own,…

Some Plans

Scopique August 14, 2019

Hey guys, what’s up, it’s me ya’ boy Scopique and I promise I will never ever say that again when I make an attempt to get back to live streaming this Thursday at 4:30 PM EDT. Geezus my skin is crawling having…
