I apologize for being quiet around here lately. Between my real job picking up with a big new project and my own little side adventure I’ll be getting into in the moment, I haven’t had a lot of time to post. It happens. But hey, that’s just the bad news. The good news is you’ll… Read More Welcome to the (Live) Show!
So last night, The Land of Odd officially made its debut on Twitch.tv as I’m sure those who follow me on Twitter saw me throwing up messages left and right about. The whole thing was quite the learning experience for a first attempt not only on the platform but also trying out Twitch’s new video… Read More Twitch: An Experimental Night of Premieres
I miss when video games were fun. Oh not the games themselves – they still are fun as heck – but more so everything surrounding them. In recent years, gaming has been something of a ‘problematic fave’ to borrow a term. You can enjoy the product but damn if the dubious ethics of the publishers,… Read More Odd Thoughts: Optimism in Gaming
If there’s one thing we nerds enjoy, it’s canon. Is this canonical? Is that? Is my OTP canonical? How does X fit into the canon?

But that’s not easy with the insane cross platform releases. Some on the Game Boy, some on the PSP, and hey what about the… Read More Making Sense of the Kingdom Hearts Timeline
Victim of an overzealous TSA investigation, Mario Jumpman Mario ends up below the ocean itching to inject random liquids he finds into his veins. Or something like that.
So as I said before in my previous posts, I had decided to take some time off of the hustle and bustle of the non-stop worlds of MMOs and what not and get in touch with my roots of single player games. Single player games are actually my preferred form of story, outranking movies, books,… Read More Solo Game Vacation: Week One
Vry is back with his semi-trustworthy buddy Jake Armitage to beat up some trick or treaters. Or something like that.
Oh geeze, what a crazy past two months. I moved, I went to Disney World (those who follow me on Twitter got treated a series of photos of Vry & his girlfriend wearing various hats), and then the insane holiday whose name is so feared it begins with the dread letter “X” (except not really.… Read More Post Apocalypse, One Year Later ~ Looking Back
“We can’t call it ‘The Warlock Manual’! Think of the negative press! Think of the angry letters! Think of all the ticked off mages!” “Well, how about we add some of that time travel stuff those dumb mages like, and call it ‘DoT training’ instead?” “That’ll work. No book-burning angry protestor ever looks past the… Read More Behold! The Secret of Warlock POWAH!
