Watching Bethesda's QuakeCon Twitch stream right now

Hey if you linked your Bethesda account with your Twitch account you get nifty drops.  It's also interesting for watching the actual people doing things.  Random nervousness, the awkward pauses before the video cuts in, and Todd Howard himself as the perfectly normal gamer boy who doesn't seem to realize what he's doing up on the stage.

Review: Soulworker, or, Welcome to the Grind

Soulworker is an anime action brawler, created by Lion Games and published by GameForge.  Set in a post-apocalyptic purgatory, you play one of (currently) four young schoolchildren who fell from the real world into the world of Soulworker.  The tutorial gives you the setting, which varies slightly for each character, and then moves you to the first hub area.  From there, you begin questing so you can get gear so you can do harder quests for more gear and to progress the story, using energy every time you enter a quest area.  The combat is a lot of fun, but if you're unwilling to pay - the current in-game economy is beyond ridiculous, and the premium currency is wildly overpriced - the game gets very grindy. The characters are the different classes, and the character designs are all very charming, even if they go a bit far on the 'females are to be looked at' side.  There's Haru, a broadsword wielding pre-med student who is apparently allergic to things coveri...

Bethesda made me happy at E3

Bethesda Softworks did a lot of really cool things at E3.  Like, announcing  Skyrim: Very Special Edition  and then actually  releasing it .  They also announced something that probably won't see the light of day for years, but still got a lot of people excited: Elder Scrolls 6.     It looks like it is set in High Rock, but we don't know for sure.  (I personally was hoping for Valenwood.) You might say I'm a bit of an Elder Scrolls fan. I mean, it's not like I'm addicted or anything.  I just really like the series.  Perfectly normal. Okay maybe I have a problem, but c'mon everyone likes modding.  It's fun and really hard to stop. Look, what I'm getting at here is: Elder Scrolls 6!  I CAN'T WAIT! I have a problem send help!  Specifically, someone who can make animobjects!

My Second Thirty Seconds to Mars Concert

Are you jealous?  You should be!  Thirty Seconds to Mars put on awesome concerts.  They do require patience, as they build to a slow burn but it explodes and stays at high energy with fantastic music. In case you live under a rock, let's start by introducing the band: Thirty Seconds to Mars is currently Jared Leto (frontman, lead singer/guitarist/songwriter, creative director) and his brother Shannon Leto (drums, rhythm, remixes, singer, songwriter, Jared's anchor).  My personal head canon is that Jared, who is secretly a vampire, drains his other bandmembers and makes them retire when they are too drained, but of course they all still like him.  Tomo Miličević joins Matt Wachter and Solon Bixler in retiring for non-specific but still staying friends with the Letos reasons.  Okay, Matt and Solon left for health reasons and Tomo recently got married, so they probably have perfectly normal reasons for not continuing to tour, but my head canon is funnier. ...
