ESO beta testing #02 + Contest!
Hello everyone! It might have seemed like I disappeared from here but on the contrary – I was working on some little project of mine concerning this blog. It’s finished now, but first things first. Besides the mentioned project, as some of you may remember, a while ago I kept fighting with Elder Scrolls Online PTS broken download. And after many troubles I finally managed to not only download The Elder Scrolls Online PTS but it also works (this time)! And I maybe didn’t have much time to play it but so far I loved everything I saw in Summerset. Above is just the login screen that managed to amaze me with its beauty on its own. I also have to admit, I’m a big fan of ESO loading screens art. In fact one of such paintings is currently on my PC’s wallpaper. The Summerset loading screens are truly beautiful…

Bless news + ESO Beta testing #01
Bless Online news It’s only Thursday and we already got 2 interesting news from Bless Online developer – Neowiz. Several days ago the dev posted a new lore blog post on Steam that explains what are the two factions of the game, what races are allied in each faction and what is the reason of their conflict. As in any good story there is no “goods” and “bads” – there are just two sides of the conflict, each with their reasons – just like in any war. The comments on the factions are varied, even though it seems most people sympathize with Union, the more progressive faction that want to bring changes to hierarchy and social structure to, in their opinion, make world a better place. One particularly interesting comment for me compared Union to Germany in WW2 because of the revolutionary intentions, while Hieron, the Holy Alliance, wants to…

Bless Dev Talk #03, ESO Event Extended & more
During this passing week we got several interesting game news. 4 of them were particularly interesting for me, since they concern the games I either play or intend to play when they are released. And what is even better – they are all good news! Bless Dev Talk #03 Bless Dev team is working hard on making everything ready for the Steam release of the game, but still every once in while they manage to find some time to give us updates on what they are working at and what we can expect from the game. This time, in their third Dev Talk, they focused on some of the biggest changes comparing to the Asian releases of Bless Online. An interesting fact to note is that the news were first “leaked” on official Bless Discord to celebrate over 10.000 members of the channel. In this blog developers explain the main…

ESO Anniversary event
This time I’m still on time with the event post as it is still going! Recently I wrote a post about the Jester Festival in Elder Scrolls Online. Soon after that short (one week) event ended – another one has started and this time the event is longer – the Anniversary event runs between April 4 and April 16, so there is still several days to have some fun with it and get bonus quests rewards. As with the previous ESO event – you join this one by “buying” and using a free quest starting item from the Crown Store (“Featured” tab). As I said in the last event post – I’m not really a fan of such event joining mechanics – it’s very unintuitive. After you obtain the event quest starting item, Jubilee Cake Voucher, you’ll be able to join the event by using it. As its description says…

ESO Jester Festival
I’m a little bit late with the post since the Jester Festival has already ended, but it was my first Elder Scrolls Online event, so I’d still like to write about it. To join the event you have to “purchase” a free item in Crown Store. As the new event started and it’s the same drill I’m guessing it the usual way of joining the events and I have to say it’s definitely not intuitive. If the event is free I should be able to start it without visiting the store – it’s honestly the last place I’d look for the quest starter and I would still be wondering how to join the event if I didn’t have helpful guildies. When the quest starting item is obtained and used – it gives a quest that sends you to a Jester Queen in Vulkher Guard who then after a short conversation…

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…
