Ooblets – Cutest Game Ever

I was originally waiting for this game to release on steam, but instead the company made a deal with Epic and it’s over there on the store for a while. Because anything not on steam is pretty easily out of sight out of mind for me, I forgot it was even a thing – until they released a large update and friends began talking about it again and how much fun they were having.

I decided to buy it on the Epic store, and goodness, is it ever fun. It’s adorable, and perfect in all the ways you’d want a game to be. There’s crafting, harvesting, housing, and just a lot of jokes. Plus you perform a dance off against other ooblets in town – which is a sort of card game. Who wouldn’t love that?! I can’t wait to delve further in.

An Elaborate Discord Scam

I was recently the target of an elaborate discord scam – and they almost had me convinced that they were the victims, not the ones doing the scam, but a few things didn’t add up.

How it went down: I got a random message from someone who had 1 server in common with me. They said that someone was impersonating me, and had scammed them out of some Counter Strike GO skins. I said it was a bad idea to give strangers their info, and wished them well. They continued on and insisted that they had more to show me, producing screen shots with someone impersonating my discord, and asking if my steam account was ‘me’ to which of course I said sure it was (because it was).

Eventually I continued on with my ‘Don’t give your info to strangers’ discussion, and they said “well I reported your steam account and now it’s going to get banned!” – and a light bulb flicked on and I realized that they were actually the ones doing the scamming. I told them that was cool and said have a good day. They insisted I be concerned about my account getting banned, I said “you’re cute, I’m not worried.” and then they vanished and stopped talking to me.

I never did get that ban they were talking about, but I did find tons of posts, articles, and comments from people going through the same issue.

Don’t fall for it. As much as I hate blocking every form of interaction out there, sometimes it’s warranted.

Monk Covenant Adventures

I’m back to playing World of Warcraft, and while I haven’t exactly settled on a ‘main’ per say, I have been fun gearing up my monk. She is almost on-par with my demon hunter, and is on chapter 7/9 on her covenant story line. While the DH has gone Kyrian (because pretty much every guide out there for all of my classes suggests Kyrian) the monk has gone Necrolord. At least I’ll have two covenant stories completed .. maybe.

Happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!
