And it's December....

Next thing it's gonna be New Year! Blink of an eye. Bit like week to week. The more that happens, the more time flies. Then again the more I game the more time seems to just evaporate..... So no wonder.

The news on the lawsuit against Steam, now being a class action is very interesting.

Dave the Diver had a minor update this last week but it seems that I've missed out on a lot of it's minor updates....... Not that I've played much of it recently but as nice are the quality of life changes/updates are I don't seem to have played it properly in a few months...

Eve Online is Eve Online and my gameplay there is on par with my gameplay there. PvE, Industry, solo casual carebear. What can I say other than same'ol same'ol. I've no interest in the new mobile Eve game and no interest in the FPS, from what I've seen and heard. Even if I did it' wouldn't run well on my PC. With the latest 'story' for Eve Online I've no interest in that either. So same'ol, same'ol....

Star Trek Online's Winter event is due tomorrow today and with it the news of the reward ship was released today yesterday.   https://www.playstartrekonline.com/en/news/article/11572674

 

 

Crushers Season 3 ship, I've no interest in it due to the series and I've claimed too many ships to be awed by a 'free' event ship like this. Good to claim and add to characters for the admiralty if noting else. Should be interesting to see what's used from it (console and/or trait) by the meta theory heads; So time will tell. The ship the Eleos Intel Scout Vessel details are here: https://www.playstartrekonline.com/en/news/article/11572677

The event and the reward ship have already been talked about by some of the more prominent STO you-tubers:

Otherwise gameplay is gameplay on PC and Xbox as much as on Eve Online; Same'ol Same'ol. Dailies and final ends of the the Mirror universe characters. 

 

I've not messed about with my PC Ferengi as he is in as much decent shape as can be, the new free Ferengi ship is a whole other fit and finish; So I'm leaning to the Xbox for that as a character and a themed build...... But maybe after Christmas in the New Year.

At long last I finally got to play the Radio Commander Pacific Campaign Demo, it's a demo and not a final version but I like it. It's been a while since I played the Vietnam first game but Pacific Campaign 'feels' a better than I thought it would be, they seem to be doing a lot of polish to it since last I saw it.  is still on my wish list.....

The last week has also seen me pickup 2 games for Xbox with the cheap sales of late. Assassins Creed Mirage and Prince of Persia The lost Crown.

In getting them I had expected to like The Lost Crown more than Mirage but in playing the start of each it's the opposite way round. That said The lost Crown is a game that is more prone to continued gameplay per session due to the level design and the innate exploration of those levels. As to which will see more gameplay overall.... Well I've a lot of games to mess about with on Xbox never-mind times 10 those on PC.....
