UOD: October 13, 2015

Bah, I wanted to post a picture of the changes I had made to the house on Test Center, as well as how I had decorated it, but the server wiped before I took the time to screenshot what I'd done. That's the downside to building on TC!
I'm not sure what I want to do with the new castle buildables. I'm still wary of putting any sort of decorations in the courtyards even though I know all of the bugs from when they added that feature in have been fixed. I'm just behind on the times. I see a lot of threads on Stratics that showcase a lot of people's creativity. I would love to try that, but on Lake Austin, the shard I have my castle on, it's very hard to come by the resources to make the building pieces. I may place a castle on TC and test out some designs, then decide if I want to go through the trouble of getting the supplies for it.
The biggest reason I play UO anymore is to decorate. That's something that every other game I play seems to lack. Even The Sims doesn't have the same character this game does when you look at a finished piece. If my old friends played I might start participating in old shenanigans, but nowadays I'm not interested in human contact.
I believe my greenhouse on Atlantic is as finished as it's ever going to be. I'll post screenshots either today or tomorrow.
It's taken me so long to finish that house I'm ready for a new design. I'm not willing to ruin that setup, though, so I'm probably going to hop on Test Center and play around there. I use that shard to decorate a lot. It takes out the worry of a lot of resources/skill needs to achieve a desired look. Also, I hope to have vendors on my houses on prodo shards, and constantly changing a house's design/layout would not fit with that.

Last time I posted I mentioned bringing in other games I play. The main game I would start posting about would be Ark: Survival Evolved.
This game is fun, put simply. I spend a lot of time either building up our base or taming hoards of dinosaurs/prehistoric creatures to call my own. My family and I play together. It's a fun pasttime :)

Besides Ark I would potentially post about World of Warcraft and The Sims, as well. As time passes I might add in other games, but those are the major ones I see myself playing right now. WoW isn't even high on that list - I have a subscription but I've not been playing since Ark made its way to my computer.
Let me know what you think about me potentially posting about other games. I still play quite a bit of UO, but it's all decorating based and I can only post so much about that!

  1. I'm not familiar with Ark but it sounds kinda cool. I hope you post about Warcraft! I haven't played in nearly a year but urges hit me every now and then. I don't want to start my subscription again if I'm only going to play for three days. lol And UO....oh how I still love dear old UO. I haven't been playing nearly as much as I'd like, yet I'm paying for two accounts each month. Why don't I just open a window and throw some money out? *sigh* I killed two Grimm's and got carvable pumpkins but I can't kill that Butcher thing to get the carving kit. Sucks not to have anyone else in the family who plays anymore. =(
