Three games to play in between your responsibilities

-


No matter what we do, life will throw a curve ball at us. I feel like that happens a lot to me. Since I have been freelancing it can be difficult to set a time to not work. Discipline will determine whether you're successful. When I had an office to go to everyday I was expected to show up on time somewhere other than the kitchen table. 

Working from home is different. I can see the tv in the living room and just want to stop what I am working on to go start up anything that isn't my task at hand. I would rather be creating characters than editing a video sometimes. I recently started writing for different websites and clients and that time spent writing for others isn't as rewarding as writing for this blog. 

But, we must do what we must. 

I want to list what I been playing in short bursts. The time that I get to play is limited so here is my list of three games that I can start up quick and play for half an hour. 

1.Hawken 

Free on the PSN, Hawken is a FPS mechwarrior game. I will be doing another post on this game because I love this game. The only FPS that I'm a god at. My kill streaks are unbelievable. The only FPS that I feel I'll only be good at.

2.Fishing Planet 

If you read my post you know how I feel about Fishing Planet. With the weather being more favorable to us fisherman my dad and I been spending more time on the water. Another reason I don't have more time to game. When we don't go fishing I can at least wet a line virtually. Doesn't compare to the real thing but it holds me off till I can go out again.

3.Four Against Darkness 

This a simple dungeon crawler RPG that is easily one of my favorites. All aspects of a pen and paper RPG has been streamlined. Those that are more accustomed to heavier rules will want to give this a try as a way to get down to simpler gameplay. For a beginner to the hobby, I highly suggest this game. This is where I started.

As of right now this is what I'm playing in between responsibilities. When life gets hectic I look towards easy to pick up and drop games. Smaller investments are the key to getting in and out. I know me, and I know that a heavy story or a game I'm really interested will only distract me.

I recommend these three to break up your daily routine. Each one of these pair well with vodka. I been mixing Taaka and root beer these past two weeks. Do the same with these. 

Enjoy your drinks and game on.

Three Solo RPG Resources

-

Playing an RPG solo can be difficult. It doesn't have to be with these suggested resources. I admit that I do not get out as much as I should. It can be difficult some days to leave the house. Especially now that the weather here in Texas has just gotten bad. Not that weather influences my decisions anyway. I do not mind being introverted. Some say I am missing out and I agree to a certain point. I have played DnD 5 th edition online using the site https://roll20.net/ . There is something missing when you do not have that human interaction. I played groups with people all over the world. The problem is you do not know these people and sometimes the group does not always get along. It is easier to leave an online chat versus in person. Instead of meeting faceless people, I would rather play alone. Looks daunting at first. The people I do want to play with have no interest in roleplaying. I understand. Not everyone wants to. I am not always up for going out to game

Mini Liquor Bottles: The Good And The Bad

This post is brought to you by four mini liquor bottles. Small doses but added all up together they give quite the punch. I'm going to name off the good and bad of these little devils. Let’s start positive with the good. 1. Price On average you will be spending anywhere from a dollar to two. Small investment for a quick taste. Beer may not be for everyone. A little bit of liquor makes for a good alternative. 2. Variety Inexpensive bottles are the best way to try out new drinks. A handful of bottles can give you the opportunity to try drinks you normally wouldn't. Not all tequila is good. I managed to find my new favorite today. Only a dollar was spent, and I can live with that. Imagine dropping forty-five dollars on a bottle you hate. I would still drink it. I can't speak for others. Now for the bad  1. Only one bottle Let's say you find a drink you like.  Great. The problem is you only bought one bottle and the li

How to make Brass Monkey (My Way for 2019)

I am going to tell you my 2019 recipe for making Brass Monkey. Super simple and you'll be asking why you never thought of it. Been a little while since I have posted. There's a good reason for my absence. It has something to do with this recipe. My new favorite drink. Cue the Beastie Boys. I'm talking Brass Monkey. How did I get to this point in life that the only way to numb the pain is with a 90s house party staple? Well, it all started with underage drinking. Statistically, if you were an underage drinker then you are more likely to become a heavy drinker as an adult. Or whatever. I swear I read that somewhere. I am going to tell you how I create this tangy, poor man's drink my way. First, let's get out the way on how to properly prepare Brass Monkey or specifically what it was and is now. Brass Monkey Original Recipe This may come as a shock, but the original recipe has nothing to do with a 40. In fact, the original Brass Monkey originates back to
