GTX 770 to GTX 1070 Upgrade

This was a long time coming. I’ve been jokingly called a time traveler for a number of years, but my workhorse of a GTX 770 is finally getting upgraded with a GTX 1070. Definitely sure it’ll play Elite: Dangerous a lot better, but now I can take on some modern games a bit better.

2018 – Holiday Desktop Shot

Unlike last year, I actually took some time to properly decorate my office space now that construction was done more or less. Since I did have a fair amount of work this month, I especially tried to make sure it looked real Christmas-y around the workstation, and even had a garland going around under the monitors! And while I did set up the community tree, I didn’t get to do anything community with it this year, unfortunately. I’ll try to do better next time!

Looking At – Between the Stars – Gameplay

After a big hiatus, I started doing Keymailer stuff again, and am slowly digging through my queue. What prompted this? Alex from Isolated Games, who wanted me to check out their game Between the Stars. Looks pretty spiffy so far! This game had a successful Kickstarter; while that may be over, you’re more than welcome to give them additional support when the game comes out!

Stars in Shadow – How to Kill Star Harpies, Engineer and a Steward

So I had gotten Stars in Shadow a little while back. Love the game, namely because Arioch did the artwork and I was following it’s development since I was at ETSU since 2011. Do check out the overall project, it’s really cool! Currently available on Steam.

Either way, decided to do this video because I ran into the Civ equivalent of a barbarian, and my old ships weren’t killing it. In fact, there was nothing on Youtube specifically outlining how much firepower you needed to kill a Steward. I set out to resolve that. Hopefully this helps someone out that go into a pickle like me.

Elite: Dangerous – Landing at Rafferty’s Mobius

Having been part of Mobius PvE since July 2017, I had never really visited any of the Mobius systems or even their home base. I decided that needed to be changed. So during my travels near Imperial space I noticed Azrael wasn’t too far away, hopped over and stopped in. Didn’t get any T-shirt or anything, though.

Elite Dangerous – First Pack Hunt – Andhrimi CG

Up till now, I’ve pretty much been flying solo, due to either gankers mainly. I recently discovered the Mobius PvE group, and when the new CG came up, got to play with other people for the first time! IT was definitely cool indeed.

Me (Python), CMDR Yip Sama (Vulture) and CMDR Sinxar (Imperial Cutter) form a wing and mix it up in the Andhrimi 6B Ice ring (Hazardous Resource area). We finally part ways as I head back to base, only to be bulldozed over by another Cutter while docking.

Not exactly sure when my original flight date was, but I’ll update if I find that out.
