The Professional Gamer - February 25, 2019

Ah, hello there readers. I’ve had a low key week here, not doing a whole of geeky stuff. For one thing, I spent Thursday and Friday away from home, and wasn’t in the mood for anime on Monday when Mob Psycho 100 was released. All I really did was watch the last season of Legend of Korra and started reading through the Hoard of the Dragon Queen module for a D&D game that I’m planning. As I writing this article on Friday night, I’m looking forward to two D&D games this weekend. One, a homebrew campaign that is more on the silly and fun end of the spectrum. The second game is running the Curse of Stradh module. In both cases, I feel like I’ve finally learned who my characters are, and I have a much deeper attachment to them compared to earlier characters in other games.

Just a reminder, spoilers for current season anime below. If you aren’t caught up, you may want to do that before you continue reading.

The Professional Gamer - October 31, 2014

Hello and Happy Halloween!  I hope everyone had a great night with an appropriate amount of treats(whatever you deem that to be) and not too many tricks.  I spent the week leading up to the holiday enjoying some relatively recent anime and video games.  I'm also preparing for my first business trip, which has been a bit stressful, mostly in terms of ensuring that all of my projects are wrapped up before I leave.  However, I still managed to spend some time in fun pursuits.

The Professional Gamer - August 29, 2014

Hello everyone! This past weekend we tried to have a bit of a geeky garage sale.  This kept me away from writing my article last week, but unfortunately was not terribly successful from a monetary point of view.  Anyways, since the last time that we talked, I finished watching a series, and decided to pick up my DS for further turn-based adventures
