Don’t have much to say this week.
I haven’t had much time to play video games this past week. I played a little bit of Diablo 3 and managed to get my new Crusader to ~level 55. After playing the Crusader class for 55 levels, I can confidently say that it is an “ez-mode” class–Crusaders deal a ton of damage AND have massive amounts of toughness (i.e. they are hard to kill and kill things really fast).
Other than that, I have played a little bit of League of Legends, specifically the April Fools joke “Ultra Rapid Fire” mode where spells have no mana cost and cooldowns are reduced by 80%. It is preeeeeeetty trolly and there are a lot of champions that are flat out broken, but if you don’t go into it expecting to win, instead just having fun it is pretty enjoyable.
But, the big news is that next week I will be attending PAX (Penny Arcade Expo) East!!!! This is the schedule of events: http://east.paxsite.com/schedule
I attended last year for 1 day only and this year decided that I MUST attend for the whole weekend! There is so much to do and so little time to see it all. There are tons of talks/mini-seminars that I want to go to as well as be able to explore the entire show-floor. The talks are usually about serious topics, but the show-floor is where you get to test out new games and meet a bunch of awesome people! (If anyone remembers from Indie Game: The Movie, Phil Fish had a booth at PAX East to debut Fez). I’m pretty damn excited about it to say the least!
That’s about it for this week. Next week I should hopefully have a bunch of cool stories from PAX!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
