The Road So Far: Diablo 3
The Road So Far: Diablo 3
In case you missed it last week, my lovely girlfriend and increasingly frequent contributor to all things PolyNerdic Chelcie has started joining me in live-streams of one of our favorite games: Diablo 3. Around two years ago we played it together nearly every day and now that I have my hands on the Ultimate Evil Edition with the Reaper of Souls expansion we couldn’t resist playing it again while…

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Game
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Game
That subject line is far from a typo. One of the definitions of phantom is: an illusion or distortion of the senses. Metal Gear Solid V appears to be a Metal Gear Solid game but that is an illusion. It is in fact a open world sandbox game with a Metal Gear paint job. Don’t be fooled though. Even though it has the appearance of the quirky greatness of past Metal Gear Solid games it lacks the…

Rethinking: Is the Institute Good for the Commonwealth by ShoddyCast
Rethinking: Is the Institute Good for the Commonwealth by ShoddyCast
So I stumbled upon these amazing videos about topics that have been stuck in my head since finishing my first play-through. Namely the Synths. Can they be considered people? Are they slaves or tools? Are the Institute’s experiments justified? Will they help or harm humanity in the long run. Be warned there are a sprinkling of spoilers in these videos but they are definitely an interesting…

Wednesdays Are Now Diablo Duo Days
Wednesdays Are Now Diablo Duo Days
Back in 2014 and early 2015 one of my favorite ways to spend time with my lovely girlfriend Chelcie was to curl up on her couch and play hours of Diablo 3 on her PS3. I recently found Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition for sale on the Xbox One and couldn’t resist picking it up. Tonight I was blessed to be joined live by Chelcie as we launched a new play-through of the game on Twitch. We will be…

2015: Gaming Year in Review/Awards
2015: Gaming Year in Review/Awards
Let me start by clarifying that due to the limits of…well, reality, I don’t get to play every game that comes out in a given year or on all platforms. I play a limited number of games strictly on Xbox One based on whatever I can rent and very rarely buy. That said when I do a year in review or award the top game in a given category it is based entirely on what I personally experienced this year.…

PolyNerdic Review: Fallout 4
PolyNerdic Review: Fallout 4
Let me start by explaining my lateness here, I know Fallout 4 has been out for nearly two months as of this writing but I wanted to play the game at least one time to completion before I put my thoughts down. Plus I may have gotten a little distracted looking for things around Boston. I recently finished my first play-through, coming in just under a hundred hours. During this play-through I…

A Pair of Metal Gear Moments
A Pair of Metal Gear Moments
Spent my gaming time this weekend with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Due to all the licensed music in the game I’m not uploading it to Youtube but am keeping as much of it as I can on Twitch. Here are a couple of moments I found interesting/ Meeting Quiet and Seeing Her in Action Quiet is undeniably a polarizing character. On one hand she is absolutely bad ass and possibly one of the…

The Battlefront that Could Have Been
The Battlefront that Could Have Been
Just came across this video from late October and immediately had to share it in light of my recent review of Star Wars: Battlefront. Long story short, back in 2008 Battlefront III was very close to completion and was possibly even in the quality assurance stage of development when Lucasarts more or less Order 66’d the project (along with several other awesome looking games set in the Star Wars…

PolyNerdic Review: Star Wars Battlefront
PolyNerdic Review: Star Wars Battlefront
Not that long ago it was announced that a new Battlefront game was being made and that DICE would be using their glorious Frostbite engine to craft the game. I could barely contain my excitement. I LOVE Star Wars. I love DICE’s work with Battlefield, arguably my favorite shooter of the last two console generations. The Battlefront series itself is one I’ve wanted to see updated since the days…

Coming Soon to PolyNerdic
Stay tuned for a few reviews that I’ve been trying to put together for a few weeks now but haven’t had the time to for a variety of reasons. Now that I’ve finished a single play-through of it I’m working on my Fallout 4 review. I’ve also finished my 10 hour demo of Battlefront and feel I’ve seen enough to comment on it. I was going to do a video for this one but my DVR failed to record a number…

Bittersweet
Well I finally and sadly finished up my Brotherhood of Steel play-through of Fallout 4 a few minutes ago. I still have about 18 or so hours from the last three weeks to upload to Youtube but it came in just shy of the 100 hour mark if I did the math correctly. I’m still processing the ending and am just starting to fantasize about what possible DLC we could see to extend the game. Also putting…

Speaking of Fallout
The other night I turned around and caught a headline on the television that stated “Russian man sues after Fallout 4 took his wife and job”. I was immediately intrigued and couldn’t wait to take a look at this story as soon as I got home but unfortunately couldn’t write about it until right now. You can read the details here but to summarize this young man in Russia decided to binge himself on…

Fallout 4 on a Sunday Night? What a Novel Idea
Fallout 4 on a Sunday Night? What a Novel Idea
About to go live with more Fallout 4 for my standard Sunday live-stream. Going to do a little Vault exploring and maybe hunt down some more Power Armor. Once that has gone on for a moment I might jump into the main quest again and wrap it up if time permits. Check it out at around 9pm here.

Star Wars Haul
So it is December 24th, the Eve of Christmas, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens has unofficially been out for a week (officially six days but there were 7:30 showings on last Thursday, the movie has been out a week). I have yet to see it due to a confluence of ill-timed schedules and the obvious big day tomorrow and all that comes with it. So no spoilers! But in an effort to take the sting off of…

Women and the Super Hero Genre
Questions of under-representation aside (because it isn’t even an argument that a few more Wonder Woman/Black Widow/Batgirl/etc films wouldn’t hurt): how many women out there enjoy the super hero genre of film?
My girlfriend and daughters all do and I know of a few others but how many of you all are out there?
My instinct tells me there are plenty but I want hard proof before I go and write an opinion piece about it.
Hit up my inbox please with the facts.
PolyNerdic Plays: MGSV The Phantom Pain Extended Look
PolyNerdic Plays: MGSV The Phantom Pain Extended Look
During the most recent weekend I spent a few hours playing around with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. It started out very rough, especially during the opening hospital sequence that I hated so much that I didn’t record it. This opening sequence initially made me wonder why people had relentlessly praised the game and I continued to be skeptical after an hour or two past that point. After…
