July 2024 Channel Update

Hey and welcome to another Channel Update. In these blogs, I want to give you an update on what has been going on in my life and on the website as I strive to create a kickass resource for you.

Personal

• I leveled up once again and had a nice day with the family coming over to celebrate my birthday. My wife decorated the house and got my favorite pie. I received a lot of gift certificates, mainly because I didn’t know what to ask for so now I can shop at the big media/electronics company.
• My father and 2 other family members also had their birthday this month.
• Did some maintenance in and around the house.
• My wife and I are still looking for a new car. We spend a lot of time discovering what’s out there and what type of car meets our requirements. Those things don’t come cheap but we also don’t wanna get a loan.
• The kid’s schools have ended and the summer vacation is coming up. My wife has planned a trip for the family.
• My wife tore her ankle ligament, so helping her out with the day-to-day stuff.

Website

• I feel like I could have done more but I had to dedicate time to my own life.
• I have been experimenting with a new menu system for the new site and how I can structure content. Looking at how other sites present their content. With all the Google algorithm updates it’s also kinda scary to make too many changes as a lot of sites have lost traffic and dropped in the rankings.

Borderlands

• Updated the “Who will publish the next Borderlands game” article as the info was outdated due to the Take Two acquisition. This question also might have become outdated, as there is less confusion about who owns the franchise now that GBX has departed the Embracer company.
• Updated the “Will Borderlands 4 be a Live Service game” article as Randy Pitchford made an interesting post on social media.
• Borderlands 1 is a pretty underdeveloped HUB compared to the other Borderlands HUBS but this month I have been making some significant upgrades.
  • Added an overview of all the Borderlands 1 Vault Hunters
  • Brick Profile Page Overhaul
  • Lilith Profile Page Overhaul
  • Mordecai Profile Page Overhaul

• Gearbox dropped a new set of cosmetics for Borderlands 3.

Others HUBs

• Immortals of Aveum:
