Gaming, Technology, Lifestyle & Personality News!
TGIF

Thank Gaming it’s Friday! Last week we began a new gaming news round up series with Week One of TGIF! This week flew by at the speed of light it seems and I’m winding down catching up on the gaming world while watching Critical Role play something that was released via NYC (New York Comicon) Thursday, more on that shortly!

GAMING

Feast Of Legends

As mentioned above, NYC is occurring as we write and the fast food chain Wendy’s has surprised everyone with a pun filled, complex table top RPG called Feast of Legends(Thank you Suzie!)

New MMO Studio

A new studio and MMO is in the works spearheaded by Raph Koster who is known for projects like Ultima Online, Star Wars Galaxies, and Metaplace. The studio’s name is Playable Worlds which raised $2.7 million in seed funding which is being lead by Bitkraft Esport Ventures.

Playable Worlds is building on Raph’s incredible heritage of MMO design innovation to create a completely new experience that will push the boundaries of persistent game worlds and social competitive play – Bitkraft partner Scott Rupp

Inktober

The month of October always hails the international creative movement called Inktober but to add a little gaming spice to the pumpkin season Bethesda also bought out their own slice of Ink pie that’s not too late for you to bite into!

The Beauty of Collaboration

More beauty tips and a little outside the gaming realm but also part of it as games are often played (and Jeffrey Star also has a Twitch channel) this documentary series is being highlighted because it is just enriching to get insight into the lives of those who spend it in front of the camera impacting culture and this project also highlights the power of collaboration with another Youtube megastar Shane Dawson, part two is out today.

Zen In The Sims

How do you compose your Zen when you need to? This is what Jojo Rabbit star Thomasin McKenzie had to say about her Zen Zone

I’m currently filming Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho, and it’s absolute madness, so I’ve been playing a lot of Sims. That’s been my portal back into my own world. Today my laptop ran out of battery, so I have to start at level one again. It was a rookie mistake. – Thomasin McKenzie.

Oh believe me I know all about rookie mistakes! Save Save Save your games, documents and yes your editorials you need to have done by a certain time people (looking at no one in particular!)

Did you catch the SpaceX reveals with Elon Musk, how about the Microsoft Event? It is truly a sizzling time to be alive gamers! GG to you and have the best weekend, week and everything beyond!
