It’s been 6 months since I relaunched NERDSHOCK HQ and kicked off a new adventure in Guild Wars 2. I started my Journey Through Tyria a long time ago, but had to put the series on hiatus multiple times. I’m so happy the series has been going strong since relaunching HQ. We’ve wrapped up Heart of Thorns and will dive into Living World Season 3 next week!
Now that spring is here, it’s time for a little clean up. I’ve been trying to find a balance between posting on social media and doing more in-depth posts here at NERDSHOCK HQ. I published and removed a couple of in-depth reviews of series I enjoyed (e.g. The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power S2) . I also went full on wishy washy when it comes to Instagram, Threads and X / Twitter.
When I brought back NERDSHOCK HQ, I made the decision to not chase the latest trends. Even though I initially loved sharing my thoughts on new TV shows, it also made me feel somewhat anxious. I was afraid to fall into an old pattern which ultimately led to writer’s block in the past. I started to doubt myself and wondered if bringing back HQ was simply me being nostalgic for old times long gone.
As winter came to a close, my doubts disappeared. This year I’ll be fully focusing on NERDSHOCK HQ. I even decided to stop using Instagram and Threads. I’m still active on X mainly to stay in the loop and share occassional updates, but the main event can be found here at nerdshock.com ⚡
In Q2 2025 I will continue to share the adventures of Basil The Wanderer in Guild Wars 2. I will also be sharing my thoughts on other geeky stuff I’m interested in and I hope to finally re-open The Vault, showcasing my favorite collectibles & more.
Stay tuned & be sure to check back in again soon!
Love,
Aleida
