Blog Herding – The Best Blogs Of The Community (March 16, 2017)
Blog Herding took an unexpected hiatus last week due to illness, but we're back on track with another collection of intriguing posts from the community.
Community Blogs For March 2 – March 15:
Personifying
My Persona 4 Experience
Attackcobra loves Japan. So it only makes sense that Persona is another love.
Here our blogger writes about enjoying a contemporary Japanese setting. It's a
good thing Cobra's confusion over the series didn't prevent him from trying it.
Everything
Wrong With Doom 2016
StarterPack gives us a rundown of the flaws he found in the latest Doom – a game
he loved. They aren't huge grievances, but it's a good, personal look at a game
that was well hyped when it released.
The
Joy Of A Boy – 200th Blog Special
GerardoExber reflects on his time blogging after reaching a milestone 200th blog. It's crazy to think he's written that much in such a short time, but also
super cool. Thank you for the dedication, and, once again, another personal
story about yourself and gaming.
Some
Spoiler-Free Musings On Breath Of The Wild
The latest Zelda game has been amazing, and Haley Shipley – a longtime Zelda
fan – is here to offer her thoughts on Nintendo's latest blockbuster. She
really enjoys it, basically. I do too, and I highly recommend this game to
everyone.

Zombie's
Nier: Automata Review
It seems like the new Nier is a love-it-or-hate-it game, but zombierecon is in the love-it
camp. He writes, "Automata really resonated with me, which is no surprise given
that its predecessor did the same."

Writing Challenge: Game-Based Seasons? I Don't Think So
Blogger GerardoExber doesn't game according to release schedules. I see why he
doesn't. Catching up on a backlog, waiting for games to go on sale, and a list
of other reasons keep many gamers playing a plethora of eclectic games over the
years.
Writing Challenge:
Do you game when you're sick? I've tried to play a little bit of Breath of the Wild, but it's hard to concentrate when my mind is muddled and I long for the sweet release of sleep (and a comfy bed with my cat). However, maybe you have a feel-good game that takes the place of a bowl of chicken noodle soup when you're sick. Share your creative take on the topic with the community by writing a blog today!
I hope you enjoy the blogs! Please contact me via my Game Informer page or on Twitter at @LouisGarcia12 with any blog news or playdate suggestions.
