Heng’s Gaming Blog

I realise that I have been posting lots of new game impressions and descriptions recently. But that is because I have been playing new games almost every week.

As a consequence, my friendster blog account has reached its photo upload limit. This means that I won’t be posting another game impressions for the rest of the month, until my limit is lifted.

Now why is photos important to my posts? There are two parts to the answer. My first answer is that I’m lazy, and if pictures can speak a thousand words, I’m willing to let the photos fill up my thousand words report.

Secondly, it comes to my mission statement for this blog. I have been focusing on Eurogaming in my blog, which is a narrow enough subject. However, to give it more focus, I try to write my reports with a mind to intro my readers to the wide varied world of Eurogaming. That is why I use a liberal dose of photos, and I also try to explain game rules and mechanics as simply and as interestingly as possible.

I believe everyone loves stories. If by using pictures and storytelling, I can make Euro-gaming come alive as an experience, then I will have succeeded in my blog mission statement.

What do you guys think though? Enough pictures? Or are the explanations getting more complex?
