Stressing College But Still Playing Games

Hey all I'm back finally. I've been rather busy of late with my college classes. Mainly busy working on Calculus II. I've been struggling a bit in that class and it is stressing me out a lot currently. I have my final this week and it's ending up being pass/fail for me with the grade I have in there now. So I probably will not be posting again until after that final is done and out of the way. I was looking at my pageviews when I logged on to blogger and saw it was at 16! Woot! Getting popular :D Well I can imagine I'm popular at least!
In other news, I have been taking a small break from playing Landmark and went back in time a bit to play through the re-make of the original Fable game. I first must say that Fable: The Lost Chapters might be my favorite Xbox game. Reason being that I can still play through it and not get bored one bit. Now I am partial to the original version with the worse graphics, but that's just me! I do have to say however that the Fable Anniversary edition graphics are a very nice change to the game. It definitely makes the environment pleasing to the eye even if my character was not (the young boy you play as just looks like he has a pencil in his butt the whole time). It reminds me of why I love single-person RPG's that are fantasy based. I'm going on break here in a week, so I think I'm going to take some time and play through Fable II as well. Although I hate how Lionhead changed the magic system for Fable II I will say that Fable II is my favorite of all the Fable series. Fable III is just not good in comparison to the other two games. The graphics stayed the same and the story line and lore just got worse. I am not going to say that Fable III is a bad game just that it is not near as good as its predecessors. It was a fun play through...but not a fantastic one.
As you may know if you have read my other posts, I am pursuing a life in the video game design industry and I am happy to say that I have gotten my major all worked out so that I am no longer in biomedical engineering and am now majoring in Mathematics and Computing with a minor in Graphic Design. I am the first non-art major to minor in Graphic Design at my school so this should be interesting! Hopefully I do well! Fingers are crossed along with my toes and all other crossable body parts.
I have learned today that League of Legends is the blackhole for my money. I haven't played in about a week and I got on today...dropped $20 for all the new skins I wanted. Why must Riot make such nice skins. Why?! That's a game I play a lot as well so you will most likely here about it a little bit here and there. I do focus more on single-player games though. If there are any games that I have played that you would like to hear or learn more about I am open to blogging about my thoughts on them! Feel free to comment on this and I'll be sure to get to it! I'll leave a list below of some games I have played. I haven't explored many mmo's as I have only been on pc for 2 years so I won't be able to talk much about those. The only mmo I have played is World of Warcraft and I did not like it very much.
Well I think I am going to sign out for now! Oh I have a new screenshot of my water sphere house that I shall post below this for any of you that are interested! It's coming along quite nicely I must say :D Thanks if you read this far! You're a real trooper! I'll talk to you later! Have fantastics days!

List O' Games: League of Legends, Gothic 4: Arcania, Kindoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Dragon Age Inquisition, Titanfall, Minecraft, Feed the Beast, Bioshock, Fable I, Fable II, Fable III, Hawken, Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Elder Scrolls Online, D&D Neverwinter, Two Worlds II, World of Warcraft, Age of Empires, SWTOR, Guild Wars 2, Smite, Assassins Creed, Landmark, Call of Duty (too many to care)...there are more but that's a good enough list! The bolded games are my favorites.

An outside view of my largest water sphere! As you can see the water has not been disturbed by my building inside!

This is just a look to what I was at last time you saw this build.

This is where I am at now! The roof is made along with all walls. I am adding windows now and other wall decor.

This is a look at the bedroom. I do like the semicircle Glass window.

This is going to eventually be a sort of study. I am currently adding a bay window and still have to add furniture.

This is a view inside the top part of the roof. It is going to be a sort of greenhouse garden for the building! 

Obviously this is not the same build but I wanted to show another one of my builds. This is a town gate that I decided to make. It is a recreation of the picture below this. I think I did rather well given this was my first real build in Landmark! I added my own flair to it with the roof style!

The original concept of the above build.

Water Globes and Life

Well it has been a few days since I last posted, but I'm still here! I've been distracted with Calculus recently as it is not going super fantastically. I did badly on one test which shot my grade down a lot so I have been focusing down on that. My water globe idea is starting to come together! Honestly they are some of the cooler creations I have made. I like them a lot! I might add a picture or two of my completed on and the one I am currently working on! We shall see! So life is good from what I can make of it. I am a bit sad that I can't go see my girlfriend on Valentines day but that is ok. Not a big deal. After 4 years one cheesy day isn't much! I am going to get off now to go study a little bit and continue to work on my water globes. Hope all who read this have good days! Until next time!

P.S. If you like my creations and would like me to keep posting my progress then please feel free to tell me! I am happy to! If you have ideas I will gladly accept those as well!

The Bubble Idea

It's another day for writing and sitting on my computer! Classes got cancelled today due to 11 inches of snow so I get a break today which is nice! I usually don't know what I want to write about but I think I actually do today! As you know if you read my last post I've been playing this game called Landmark. It is a fantasy design type of game where you literally just build things. It is fantastic. Well I thought up an idea the other day and it seems to be a cool one! You can place water blocks down and of course as any good game that's like Minecraft...gravity doesn't affect blocks you place! So I made this massive hollow water sphere. And I think what I am going to do is put land on the inside of it. I think what I'm going to go for is a reverse island sort of deal. Or underwater house that is above water? Like in a bubble of water basically. I don't know! I am excited for it so I'm going to get off of blogger to make it. Mainly because this League of Legends queue is taking forever. Approx time 1:04. I'm coming up on 10 minutes. Time for Landmark! Until next time!

Major Struggles

Well I am back again! Don't know how loyal I'm going to be to this but might as well give it a go! So I am currently struggling along with the process of changing my major from biomedical engineering to a mathematics/computing major so I can get into the programming sort of classes. I do not think however that I want to be a video game programmer. I would rather do more of the concept creating. The imaginative thinking and designing of certain characteristics of possibly the buildings in whatever game I am apart of. Hopefully I would be a part of a fantasy based game because that is the type of game that I love to play and design! I am currently playing a game known as Landmark and it is truly awesome. The best way I can describe it is if Revit (an architecture software) was pulled into a 3rd person point of view and was placed into a fantasy game. You literally create anything your little heart desires. No need for survival like in Minecraft (yet). And the building is far more intricate than Minecraft. It's awesome. If you haven't tried it out and you love creating things I'd give it a try. This is a bit random but I think my dream job would be to work for SOE (Sony Online Entertainment) and to work with the EverQuest Next team. That truly would be an amazing job. I would love it I think. I'm going to wrap this up because I don't have much else to say! Sorry this isn't all that entertaining! Hopefully I will get better at writing as time progresses! Maybe something radical will happen to me that I can write about! Or not! Until next time!
