It’s no surprise that it’s been almost a month since my last update on the blog. It’s not for a lack of trying, but every single time that I’ve sat down to write something I’ve immediately lost my motivation. I’ll get this great idea for my blog, then just as I’m about to start typing [...]

Annuality
Posted in General Gaming, Star Trek Online, World of Warcraft, tagged Annual MMO hiatus, backlog, break, console gaming, STO, wow on March 1, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
“Hi March! I believe we’ve met many times before. I’m doing well, and you? Oh? You’re thinking it’s time for another break from online gaming? I was thinking the same thing considering how incredibly behind on my console gaming I am. You’re right, I have effectively given Blizzard $30 for logging into WoW a handful [...]
Failure

I had been planning on updating my blog for the past couple of days, but things got in the way as they usually do. Those pesky things! Ce la vie. I suppose my failure to update the blog is fitting considering the subject matter that this entry will mainly cover, failure. Don’t worry this won’t be [...]

Perhaps you’re concerned that all of this Star Trek blogging means that my Warcraft days are behind me, or maybe you aren’t. Fear not, there will still be plenty of WoW-related blog entries in the future. I seem to be taking my annual break from WoW and recharging my batteries. Cataclysm will breathe new life [...]

I think I recall stating that I was hoping to blog a little more frequently about my STO exploits. I also recall stating that I would give a ground fleet action another go. Well, what do you know … I’m about to kill two birds with one stone. ^^; Yesterday I had an opportunity to [...]

There are moments where STO is extremely enjoyable and I find myself thinking that I’ll be in for the long haul. Then there are moments where STO falls apart for me and I struggle to keep going and find the motivation to log back in. But I am committed to giving STO a fair shake, [...]
Podcasted
Posted in Star Trek Online, tagged Ctrl Alt Trek, podcasts, self-promotion, The Addicted on February 8, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Just a quick and dirty update for no other reason than shameless self-promotion. Recently I’ve appeared on two podcasts talking about Star Trek Online. Last week I was a special guest on The Addicted (episode #28) to talk about my experiences in the open beta and the headstart program. Hypknotoad and Cypher are great guys [...]
Cruising
Posted in Star Trek Online, tagged episodic feeling, ground missions, hope, server stability on February 8, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
I have to commend Cryptic on their rather successful Star Trek Online launch. Over the past week I’ve only been denied playtime once since the official debut of the game. That’s a metric ton better than I had anticipated. I was expecting rampant server disconnections, login/authentication server issues, and multiple roll-backs from all of the [...]
Steaming
Posted in Star Trek Online, tagged expectations, server stability, Steam STO client debacle on January 31, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
I never thought about it before, but ordering a MMO through Steam presents problems. Case-in-point I was expecting to log into the Star Trek Online head start with little incident Friday night after getting home from work. I had made sure I downloaded and patched the client through Steam after removing the beta client I [...]

I have boldly gone where many have gone before me and ventured into the open beta of Star Trek Online. (Thanks Ninthbatter and Polygamerous!) I wasn’t able to explore every nook n’ cranny in the beta considering I didn’t have a key until the final weekend, but I did get enough time to share my [...]
