Good evening everyone! I hope you've all had a fantastic weekend and that your Monday has been going well so far. Apologies for not posting on Friday, time just escaped me and became Saturday all of a sudden. My weekend has not been very eventful, just filled with a lot of gaming and some movies. I have had the worst headache ever today so have spent way too much time sleeping. I am currently running a bath and plan to spend my evening playing some World of Warcraft and possibly watch a movie or two.
I have had a fantastic few days in World of Warcraft, I got 2 brand new mount and completed quite a few new achievements. I have been actively doing world quests in the zones where I still need a mount from the reputation supply bag, so far I have gotten 2 from the Legion reputations and hopefully more will come before the buff ends.

Outside of the mount hunt, I have completed a few new achievements since my last post! None of them have been difficult, just time consuming. I will be looking through my achievement tab tonight to figure out what i'll be working on next. Oh, I forgot to mention, I also managed to get the egg that drops off pterodactyl mobs in Zuldazar so I am now able to start the dailies which will give me a mount and 2 achievements once fully complete. I got it fairly quickly in this farming attempt, around 20 minutes compared to the 4+ hour attempt I tried in the past.

As you guys know, I am currently playing through Portal Knights. I am sadly not enjoying this game at all and feel like it has now become a chore. I have been considering just dropping it completely but I did set myself a goal of completing games once I start them so I do not have a backlog of unfinished games sitting in my Steam library.
I chose a mage as my character, this may have been a bad choice but I have no idea. I feel like all I do is seek portals to unlock a new area, some of these are hidden underground and require a compass to find the exact position then dig down in hopes that I find the portal. I have not came across any "story" quests and only side quests when reviewing my quest log. I have had so many scenarios of where quest monsters do not appear at all, I read that the solution is just to refresh the world. When doing this every single quest resets and the areas change slightly as if a new map has been created. This was extremely disappointing as I now feel the urge to go back and finish quests I've already done due to feeling I know have messed up my game experience.

I also feel that after the first boss enemy, things have scaled to a point of being too tough for the nature of this game. All of my equipment is the best it can be at this point in the game and the risk of dying is still stupidly high. Maybe this game has been designed to play as a group for the entirety of the game but I chose to play this solo and feel like I'm being punished for this choice. Some of the achievements are also at the level of what I have collected in World of Warcraft after months of playing, I definitely do not intent to complete any of these for Portal Knights. The game started off great but I feel it very quickly lost its charm and direction.
*/Changing the subject before the depression of Portal Knights kicks in*. Guys, I have started to have a WoW crisis. I have been toying with the idea of going back to Priest for Shadowlands. Priest used to be my main from The Burning Crusade till the release of Mists of Pandaria where I switched to Monk. The reason for this train of thought is due to me disliking playing melee so I am pretty much locked as a healer or tank and feel I may be more of use playing as a healer or ranged damage. We have more than enough tanks in our guild and I thought the flexibility at my end may be more of use for farming m+ outside of my usual group. I have had this dilemma for almost a week now and think the best thing for me to do would be to level and gear both my priest and monk. I have never really had a properly geared alt to play with actively so maybe Shadowlands is the time for this. I'll keep you guys posted and let you know if I change my mind nearer launch time.
I hope you all have a lovely evening wherever you are in the world. I'll see you all on my next post!
