Shuttering the doors to the blog....



Welp, its been fun posting DCUO guides, but a change in perspective is leading me towards different goals.  A bit ago, I had seen a "final post" by DackMan, stating he was done with the DCUO.  This led me to thinking about my own time spent on the DCUO.  Aside from needing a new computer (in the works), I considered that the huge open world is pretty much vacant, with the exception of the occasional season event.  Also, the events seem... 'meh'.  I liked Metal Gotham, but Thanagar was a bust (imo).  Looking back, the only recent content I really enjoyed was Chaos Gotham - as I was pretty bored with Atlantis and the Teen Titans episodes.    Additionally, DCUO is over a decade old, and they've done their best to upgrade graphics, but between "ok" graphics (by today's standards), and boring game play, I think its time to focus my efforts elsewhere.  Finally, I had to concur with Dackman in so far that the new management is try to over-monetize the DCUO.  It seems like the DCUO is indeed a proverbial golden goose that is slowly being bled for other unsuccessful projects.




I'm I quitting the DCUO?  No, not for now, anyways.  But instead of plowing time and money into the game, I'll take a step back and work on learning to write fiction and develop my DAZ-3d skills.  For those who have stopped by... my thanks.  Hope to see you in-world!

DCUO: Review of Pet Trinkets, Sidekicks, and Backups, and the departure of DackMan


Power Girl, for Aidenke

A quick entry from Mr. Obsidian Chill (again), providing a quick overview of the existing DCUO trinkets, sidekicks, and backups in the game.  As we're not getting any new content until April, its a perfect time to start leveling up in preparation for the Birds of Prey event.






On a more somber note, Mr. Dackman will be leaving the DCUO fold for a variety of reasons, as he has detailed below.  He was an outstanding longtime DCUO blogger, providing insights and advice for DCUO players for years... but due to the the reasons from his video (many of which I agree with), he's leaving for good.  Sad to say, but we wish him well in his other virtual worlds.
