Da-bomb to DDO's upcoming class, the alchemist. I've been wanting either Final Fantasy MMO to give me a 'chemist' class since forever but to no avail, so I'm super excited.

For the question of the week: Well given the treatment Gamigo has given my poor Rift, I'm actively boycotting them. Even so, I wouldn't pay to restart Archeage, especially without any of the shinies I had in it. Hmm, Gamigo settles a lawsuit involving Archeage, then desperately tries to make money off of it.... totally a coincidence, right?

Da-bomb to the soundtrack from Dune 2000 , somehow , i found inside one of my old game box , a cd with the soundtrack from Dune 2000 and decided to listen to it again , my god , i have completely forgotten how good the soundtrack is , maybe it's just the nostalgia , but man , it feels good to listen to it again, i never experienced the '' i feel so old '' sensation until now , not pleasant at all.

QOTW : Wen it's going to be free i'll try it but until then , definitely no , i'd rather buy platinum in warframe , or who knows maybe even a good game , hell i'd rather buy a bikini outfit in Black desert , you know what , i would rather just gift a game to some random asshole , any of those choices have some kind of joy as a result .
