World of Tanks – August 2023

Et spill jeg alltid kommer tilbake til er World of Tanks. Noen ganger går det ganske så ok, men også veldig ofte ikke. Dog, i løpet av en måned er det som regel ikke så verst. Her er en oppsummering av august 2023. Topp 19% er slettes ikke ille.

Rocket League – Sesong 11 champion

Egentlig spiller jeg ikke så mange forskjellige spill, og det går litt opp og ned med hvor mye jeg spiller de jeg spiller. Innimellom har jeg også temmelig lange pauser, særlig siden jeg har bestemt meg for at fomo er ut.

Rocket League er gøy, og jeg får gjerne inn noen matcher i løpet av uka. Rocket League er i prinsippet fotball med biler som også kan fly litt med booster pick-ups.

Denne gangen spilte jeg en turnering, som er en daglig greie. Selv om de skjer hver dag, og jeg prøver bare noen få ganger hver sesong, er det ikke lett å vinne.

Jeg har vunnet noen. Den siste jeg vant var i sesong 8, men jeg vant sesong 11 i går. Det var en 3vs3, og vanskelighetsgraden var Platinum. Det var en fyr på teamet som var helt vilt god.

Minor Backfire er et randomized navn man får når man joiner en turnering.

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight (release day)

The two previous expansions for World of Warcraft, Battle for Azeroth and Shadowlands, has both been huge disappointments.

I always try to avoid information about the next expansion to have a fairly untouched mind when it’s released. It’s impossible to avoid everything though, but that’s okay really, and some of the things I’ve seen and hears looks sweet!

I sleep and are awake several times every day/night, and the timing to wake up now was pretty good since the release of Dragonflight was only a couple of hours ago.

However, the release of a new expansion is never streamlined, and nor is it this time. 🙂

If anything, Blizzard always make sublime cinematics for launches, and this one is not an exception. Check it out:

World of Warcraft: Some character screenshots, and their names

I’ve been playing this game since 2007 (I think it is), and I still do. I take some breaks now and then, but I play it fairly often.

For historic reasons I thought maybe it’s time for a few screenshots of some of my characters. Mostly because of their mogs, and some for their names. I will also have a quick explanation for their names if there’s a point to it.

I haven’t done many screenshots since I got a new gaming PC, so the graphics are much better than it used to either way.

HORDE

Blood Elf Demon Hunter: There’s demon – and there’s…
Vulpera Death Knight: Cniht is Old English writing for Knight
Undead Warlock: Infuriator is the name of a song by the Swedish band RAM. I consider this character to be my main Horde
Undead Mage: Vooligan is in relation with the Australian band Karnivool. I actually have a hat from them with that word on hit. I guess Vooligans are fans of the band, and is a wordplay on Hooligans
Vulpera Warlock: Frehley is a tip of the hat to Ace Frehley (a founding member of the band Kiss). I’m not a huge fan of Kiss, but Ace Frehley rules

ALLIANCE

Gnome Warrior: Kebabnissen. It’s hard to explain this name. It’s just a funny one. Kebab is the tasty dish, and Nissen can be translated to gnome I guess
Kul Tiran Druid: Deathstimate is the name of a song by Therapy?
Gnome Mage: Hellbelly is the name of a song by Therapy? too
Mechagnome Monk: Cybertron (Primus) is the home planet of the Transfomers
Gnome Warlock: Astroneer is a game I play from time to time. It’s my go to game for relaxation. This character was and was supposed to be named Astronaut. He was before I moved him to a different realm, where that name was taken. I consider this character to be my main

There we go, a little overview of some of my characters. Not all are level 60 yet, and I have close to 50 characters overall. Some are very low level though.

Some Pokémon achievements

I got a couple of nice achievements in Pokémon Go about a week ago. Forgot to post them here. I still play this game after all these years, but I’m not raiding (much) or anything… keeping it casual.

Max level is 40 so only 4 to go.
