Log In To Collect Your Reward

I play a lot of games. A LOT. Many times, some of these games require me to log in and collect a daily reward, Normally this is fine, but with the amount of titles offering these incentives, I find myself logging in and then logging out just to do the same for another game incase I miss their login reward as well.

Sound exhausting? That's because it is.

Most of the time I can manage it (especially if it's 10 or so days out of the month) but if I want to get the end prize for consecutive days, I'm pressured. Couldn't sign on because you had the doctor's appointment after work? Back to day one. Wasn't able to make it because you have other priorities that take ahold of you during the day? Back to day one. It's nerve-wracking.

I get that companies want you to come back to their game. I get that it's a good way for customers/players to be rewarded for loyalty. That all makes sense. It's when it becomes any game I touch NEEDS me to log in every single day that it sort of becomes overbearing. And we all suffer a bit from FOMO to begin with, right?

Doing this for events and such is fine. A holiday prize event is absolutely okay in my eyes. Even consecutive log ins on your own free will is okay. I do think that hiding massive (or even some times mediocre) incentives at the end of a 30 day log in is sort of aggravating.

I talk about it often but I am a husband, a father of two and I work full time. It will often slip my mind for days at a time to turn a console or mobile game on. The irony is incredible. I should get a bonus for consecutive days logged out.

I am sure there are not too many fresh options floating around out there but I do believe the system can be revamped. Play the game 7 days in a row to get a sticker or 28 days out of 30 to get a shinier sticker. It doesn't seem like much but dang it, I want that sticker and I can't have it most of the time.

Disney Dreamlight Valley: How To Equip And Use Your Glider

Are you wondering how to use your new Glider in Disney Dreamlight Valley? Have no fear as I am here to tell you exactly how to do it! If you happen to be blasting or skipping through menus in Disney Dreamlight Valley, you may be wondering how the heck to equip that shiny new surfboard glider you got. Well, all you have to do is go to your Wardrobe, scroll down to Gliders and select it! Easy as a hot dog! But how do you hop on this thing and use it? Well for that, first you MUST make sure your stamina bar is in the yellow. You do this by eating cooked meals that will take you above your maximum stamina bar. Once this is complete, just run for a few seconds until an icon appears in the bottom left side of the screen. Tap that button (For me, on Xbox, it's B) and PERFECTO! You'll be gliding in no time! Make sure to pay attention to your stamina bar as it will run out pretty quickly though! For more tips, opinions, and overall shenanigans, make sure to leave a comment and come back...

Movie Backlog: The Fast And The Furious (2001)

I'm a bit ashamed of myself. And, to a point, somewhat proud. I have never watched any of the Fast and Furious movies other than 2 Fast 2 Furious for some reason. So I got sick over the weekend and decided to start watching the entire season to see what I have missed over the last 20 years. Here are some of my thoughts on the first movie into this adrenaline-filled, NOS-injected, action-packed love story. The Fast This movie starts out at a pretty fast pace. Quick racing, quick fights, all the machismo you can shake a stick at. We get to follow Brian O'Connor, played by the late Paul Walker. A blonde surfer type who is an undercover cop sent to investigate the infamous street racing gang leader, Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel). This is because a bunch of truck's have been hijacked and good ole Dommy boy is the main suspect. We find out the Brian likes tuna sandwiches. Pretty dang cool I guess. I'm not a car guy and I will never pretend to be, but what I noticed is there are ...

A.K.I Slithers into Street Fighter 6!

The second Street Fighter 6 DLC character is here! A.K.I, a brand new character to the series arrived this week, just in time for Halloween. Her slithery, unsettling, poison wielding moves will be sure to not only creep out players, but also shake things up for the online warriors out there. She has a mix of mid and long range range moves, plus projectiles and specials that inflict poison on the opponent. Her moveset and specials take inspiration from F.A.N.G. Well... not surprising because she's an apprentice of F.A.N.G! Not only that, she's a little bit obsessed with him. Ok, maybe A LOT bit obsessed. Don’t worry though, she’s way cooler than F.A.N.G. Her design (I'm still 50/50 on the hair) and engaging move set make her way more appealing to use than her obsession. Street Fighter's YouTube page has a great breakdown of her gameplay. If you want to learn a bit about her move set, strengths, and weaknesses, I recommend that you watch! So far I’m having a blast us...
