    ESO – First(ish) impressions

    Wait, is it Easter already? Happy Easter everyone! I hope this holiday’s time is passing in a nice atmosphere for you all, no matter what you believe in. I got an early Easter gift in a form of my first patron on Patreon and it made me really happy. To celebrate it I didn’t only draw my ESO Dunmer girl chibi being happy but also made 2 drawing process recordings! But this posn’t wasn’t meant to be about it, so I’ll share those some other time. Easter is of course a religious holiday but no one (at least in Poland) can deny the fact that we also get some free time because of it. And thanks to this free time I’m finally able to write about my first(ish) Elder Scrolls Online impressions. First of all, let me tell you this, it may be about another game but it’s still relevant: when I…

    Bless Dev Talk #02

    I wanted so much to write this post sooner but unfortunately I was busy with painting (deadlines are one of the worst things ever). I really couldn’t wait to finally express my thoughts on the last Bless dev talk in which the developer explains what was the most important factor while designing and accepting the final concepts for mobs and zones – the Bless world in general. I always say how immersive game world is very imortant for me (so loading screens between zones is a BIG no, sorry GW2 and B&S). That’s why I was reading the new Bless Dev Talk with my mouth opening wider and wider because the things that are discussed there are exactly what I look for in games’ worlds. Not just a design that looks awesome, which is always welcome, of course, but, what is more important, “does it make any sense”. As a geologist…

    ESO it is

    And so it happened that after years of playing Rift (why i decided to play something else is a topic for another post here) i reached a point i needed a new MMO to play. The thing is, I’m picky. There are things that I’m looking for in games, and there are things that put me off. For example – Asian MMOs may be fun, but for me they’ve always been too flashy and too… console-like. Not to mention the squeaky anime-like voices of female characters. As I said, it might be fun, it’s just not what I prefer. I want to get consumed by the game for the time of playing, forget where I really am. Squeaky voices don’t help in it, neither do rainbow vivid colours on everything and visible attack lines while fighting. That’s why now when I was looking for something fun to play I considered…
