Overly Positive

Happy Humpday to all, and to all a good Hump!

Ok, well maybe that sounds REALLY bad, but I bet it made you laugh a little, right? Mission accomplished in my opinion.

It’s the middle of the week and hopefully you’re looking forward to sending off August with a bang this weekend. Until then, here’s another blog from my long and illustrious blogroll to keep you busy.

Darth Hater has emerged from the pack of SWTOR blogs with high quality content and constant news about Bioware‘s new and upcoming MMO. With multiple writers, and posts like their now-famous dissection posts that look for bits of detail revealed in SWTOR’s videos, Darth Hater is well on its way to establishing itself as a reputable fan source for all things The Old Republic.

The multiple author format has advantages in creating sites like Darth Hater. There’s variety for one, with each author having a distinct style and mode of speech. There’s also the ability to update quickly, so even if one of the author’s isn’t online to catch a bit of news, someone else is inevitably able to pick it up. This shows in the frequency and quickness with which news is posted to Darth Hater, from developer postings, to significant threads, to new reveals. My Google Reader always has something new at Darth Hater to look at, and that’s not a bad thing.

As if the blog wasn’t enough, the guys over at Darth Hater also have a fledgling podcast on SWTOR. They’re up to 4 episodes now, so if you want a good bit of an SWTOR fix and you can’t stop at reading the various blogs and news sites, check out Darth Hater’s podcast. I know that among the many TOR podcasts currently running, I enjoy listening to theirs.

Even though the name of the site distinctly puts them into the camp of the Sith, don’t be worried –  Darth Hater has plenty of balanced, frequently updated content for Star Wars: The Old Republic, and I highly advise adding them to your RSS.
