Gaming news only today:

Elite Dangerous:

I have upgraded to the next smuggling ship. If you guys remember I was flying the Cobra which was a really good ship to start smuggling. Now the ASP is an upgraded version of the ship, even though the bonuses are increased like more cargo space and much beefier systems the same can be said about the penalties. It's a bigger ship, thus less maneuverable, more heat signature. Balanced overall I would say. The best part is that It can double as an exploration ship.


Speaking of exploration, I took a trip to the California Galaxy and back to Federation space. Took me about 3 days (a couple of hours each day). All in all, I have 2 stars and about a dozen planets with my name on them :). Economically... 600k credits... not really worth it when I can make between 100k-250k in 15 minutes of smuggling.

In conclusion: Back to Smuggling.

Guild Wars 2:

I bit the bullet and pre-ordered the Heart of Thorns expansion. I only got the base version because it's way to expensive for an expansion and it's what I can afford at the moment. Also, paying 25$ more for a mini and a glider skin? I'll pass thank you.


Upcoming Game: Tree of savior (https://treeofsavior.com/)

This game is going to release beta soon. The developpers say it's the spiritual successor of the popular Ragnarok Online. I used to play Ragnarok quite a lot! I consider it the TF2 of MMORPGs. This new game looks amazing and I can't wait until release or at least to get more information and gameplay.

Well the Job search still continues with no luck... life is haaaard! On the other hand I am losing more weight and are closer to my goal of 160-165. After that I will need to start toning. On the bright side I am a high performance trainer so I am saving the costs of hiring a personal trainer.

I have a couple of news in the online world though.
For one I tried making a video to show my american friends that in Eastern Canada we have Milk in Bags and the result was... uhm... I'll let you see for yourselves.


Razer Naga is still all good,
Steelseries Keyboard is still all good
Razer Gaming Mousepad... Not so great... (still usable)
