As you know (or should know), we are gamers. Personally, I have been playing a lot of Black Desert lately.
I mean, come on.
Look at it.
You’ll probably get to see more screenshots as I go along. My highest character is only low 30s so far, and the game is very alt friendly. I love creating characters, so of course I have all my character slots filled.
I’m sure you can look forward to more pretty screenshots, but in the meantime you may catch me and game on stream via TechnDaggers on Twitch.
Ya never know… I might get Eldritch to join me for a drinking stream every now and then.
Ok, so UV has a new flavor. If you’ve even remotely read the posts here, or hung out with us, you’ll know how much we love UV. They have a lot of variety in flavors. Also, yay vodka.
The new one is Salty Caramel Apple. A flavor that came out right in time for the holidays. Fun, right?
Well… Sadly, this one was a bit disappointing. The apple flavor is there. Salty, yes. Caramel? Um… Not so strong. It’s more like a tiny lingering after taste.
Eldritch and I really wanted this one to be good. If the caramel was stronger, I think it would be pretty tasty. That’s not to say that it tastes bad. Oh no. It’s smooth and not insanely sweet like the Sugar Crush. It’s just… It’s not as great as we hoped it would be.
That said, we will still be testing it out for other things. Eldritch has a feeling it will be used mainly for pies and such. (It could make a fantastic boozy apple pie… Yum.) Personally, I want to try doing those apple slice jello shots with it. We’ll see how that goes…
In gaming related news… A while back I had posted about Wildstar. I’m still playing that. The whole Drunken Alchemy guild? Well… I did kinda let that fade once I joined the Galaxy Questers. It’s a great guild created by the guys over at Table Titans. While it seems like several people have taken a break from the game, I’m still highly active. On the off chance that anyone reads this, and actually plays Wildstar (Entity server)… Give Kaeva Unari or Kenzi Ysabeau a /wave.
Ok, so one of the biggest things we like to focus on here at Drunken Alchemy is the social side of drinking. And what’s more social?
Drinking and gaming!
As a reminder warning, there will be more gaming talk around here. Wildstar awesomeness is pending. (Open Beta is still up until Sunday if you haven’t tried it out…) Once that hits officially, I’ll be setting up a guild. Server has yet to be determined, but I’ll definitely post about it once things are up and running.
Now, DA was founded by gaming. Not sure how many times I’ll mention that, but hey, it’s important so get used to hearing me say it…. This is why I’m trying to get more gaming oriented posts here.
Gaming does good things. It brings people together. Granted, a lot of games are online nowadays, so you don’t officially get together in a physical sense, but there is still chat/voice chat involved. If you can get the right group of people together, you can still have a blast online while you sit at home alone. Plus, playing online means clothing is optional! Er… Hmm. Was that too revealing?
Ahem.
Right. Drinks. Games… Stuff that’s not embarrassing…
Ok. I’ll try to get a better list of games that we enjoy somewhere on the site. For one, content. We’re lacking it. For two, we’d like to expand the Drunken Alchemy community. Course, to meet some kind of social standard/requirement… We’re going to need more than just myself and Eldritch.
So… If you are a gamer, please comment with whatever current games you are playing. If we can join you in a drunken dungeon run or discuss the perils that drunken dice rolling have on your characters… Well, we’d love to! Hell, even if there isn’t drinking involved, gaming stories can be entertaining!
If there is enough of a draw, maybe I’ll add some forums to the site. Until then… /cheers
Aurins drink fancy like! /pinky
P.S. I’ve had oranges soaking in UV Peach for… 3? 4 weeks? They must be had this weekend! And I’ll try to post a note about how kickass they are. /halfpromise /mostlypromise
