Lord of the Rings Online is....

Ok, for lack of a better word. Since I am all of level 3 my opinion should be taken with the appropriate salt grains. I am getting used to the differences from Wow. It actually plays a lot like Fallen Earth and has that same kind of graphical feel. I don't know if the graphics really speak to me the same way they do in Fallen Earth but it has it's moments. I like a lot of the design ideas with the voice and talking bubbles in the game. It is also really easy to get into the game. I will probably only play it very randomly but I have been curious for a long time and being as I have been playing Wow some lately I wanted to do a apples to apples comparison. Well, since I didn't put too much time in that's all I got. typeatyalater

Iamthetick is 87 - we'll see if it sticks

I played a little over the weekend. I am starting to notice a pattern, I will get on a roll with a toon and get up to 87-88 and I will start to notice I am struggling to compete a little bit and then I start getting bored and set them aside. I have 2 toons almost 89 but have no desire to even log into them because they are not competitive. The worst part is I don't really care I am not planning on raiding at all but I do like to run the occasional dungeon and I hate feeling like I am the weak link. I just want to contribute you know. Well I will see if the same thing happens with my hunter I have been good this time I have not spent any time on any of my other toons except for mailing off items and banking spare junk. That's about all I got so thanks for all the fish, typeatyalater. K Out!

Housecleaning of Blogger done... mostly

I have for the last few days been going through all the blogs I followed and cleared out anyone who had not posted for over a year. Since I had not done this in a long time I ended up removing over 80 blogs from my feed. Since I post so infrequently I have not been following many new blogs out there. I am going to try to find some more blogs to follow and comment on I have a much more varied gameplay style now so I am going to try to find and highlight some of these that interest me (Android games, Xbox 360, PS3, MMO's, Steam, etc) I have been wanting to blog more and I think finding more entertaining things to read may increase my own productivity. I make no promises I have a tendency to say hey, I'm back and then not post for months but hey, wishful thinking never hurt anyone right

Iamthetick is 86 woot!

So I have been playing a little bit here and there and I got my hunter to 86 today. My leveling method is very simple I am leveling my archaeology so I can try to get more mini-pets and queueing up for random dungeons. Occasionally I will do some pet battles and when I get to the higher levels I will start herbing too. Although thinking about it I should herb some of the lower herbs for auctioning too but I really don't want to do any auctioning, that is one of those menial tasks in game that I get bored with quickly and causes me to quit playing. I know I will have fun grouping with my friends if I ever get to 90 but the leveling slog is killing me. Well I have 50+ days left to try to get there with one of my toons so good luck to me, lol.
