Ask Gauss

Here we are the first Sunday in November and the day we got an extra hour of sleep. Well that is if where you live does the whole daylight savings time thing. If not then it is just the first Sunday in November. This Sunday really isn't much different than most we still answer some questions.

Less than 2 weeks till Warlords. Has excited set in yet?

I have been pretty pumped for it since they released the cinematic. It just made the whole thing seem so close and that was back in August. I am excited to see where the story is going and how I will progress through it. Interacting with characters and places you never thought you would see again really is going to be something else. Especially for lore buffs like myself. So bring it.

What are your thoughts on Beyond Earth?

Now being a fan of the Civilization games I was excited for this. Now it looks amazing and it plays like a civilization game, which is a good thing. One thing though which I always thought has been great about the Civ games was how you were taking a part of history and being part of it. This doesn't have that as this is futuristic. Now that is not a completely bad thing but it is just different. I will say this game has a much higher learning curve than previous Civ games because you can do everything the tech trees are also unknown to you because the worlds themselves are. It takes a few games to get used to the feel and how to play it. I think I will have a more extensive review after I have played it more.

Blizzcon this week.

Thank you captain obvious!

There you have it some questions answered for the week. Thanks to everyone who sent one in and hopefully my responses are somewhat helpful. Enjoy what is left of your weekend!

This Was Not Our Destiny

Here we are the 2nd day of September, and what is September good for you ask? Well besides a slight increase in depression with the realization even if you no longer are in school that school has begun it means games are on there way. Every gamer knows summer time is a huge lull in terms of big games being released. With September brings new life into the gaming industry with so many big named games getting set to release. So I figured for my list this week I would list the titles I am most excited to see coming the rest of the year.

5. Dragon Age Inquisition

Slated for October the 7th the newest game in the dragon age series will be available for play. It may just be me and my fascination with dragons, but I love this series and I cannot wait to get my hands on this game.

4. Civilization: Beyond Earth

We will get to play the newest installment of Sid Meier's epic game on the 27th of October. I know some people find turn based games too slow, but to me I just love playing the single player versions of these games just to feel like you are apart of it all.

3. Shadows of Mordor

September 30th will bring us the release of Shadows of Mordor. The game itself has so many customizations and niches just makes me want to try out how they all can workout. Also it takes place in middle earth and who does love that!

2. Assassin's Creed Untiy

Ever since Assassin's Creed was a thing I always hoped they would make one of the games connecting to the French Revolution. Well on November 11th I will get my wish, and I for one cannot wait to see it all first hand.

1. Warlords of Draenor

There are games that just get everyone pumped. I cannot remember the last time I was this excited to play a game. Warlords has everything I could possibly ask for story wise that just gives me those gamer chills. November 13th cannot come soon enough.

There you have it. Do have some which you think should have made the list? Or jsut others which deserve honorable mention? Let me know as always.
