After 462 days of being away from streaming, I'll take this Top 25% notification. 🤣 We've been playing Star Wars The Old Republic and having a blast with a Smuggler in what I'm calling #HotSWTORSummer You should come too! Every weekday at 4:30PM PST across Twitch, YT & Kick!

Finally bit the bullet and broke free of the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite today. $800 for what I would be using it for is just too much. Buuut that was kind of impulsive because that's all I've used for a decade plus now. What's out there as good replacements, paid or otherwise?

Sci-fi fan here. Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Quantum Leap, hell I still want a new Sliders. I was SO EXCITED that a new Stargate series was coming, respecting the origins A terrible decision by Amazon. They should sell the rights because they've lost the fandom & won't get it back.

My decade‑old Logitech G600 just kicked the bucket. You were a good mouse. Now I find out they don't make em anymore? 😭 Whose got the MMO Mouse crown these days? I know Razer still has a Naga out there. Anyone know of any other contenders?

Decided to post more over here on BlueSky! I've moved & picked up a new job that'll allow for content creation again soon! Won't be Sea Of Thieves but excited to try something else after 3 years! Also, I had a bout of diverticulitis but down almost 40 lbs (18.1 kg) & I feel so much lighter. 👍

Just a reminder that I'm taking a vacation this week to recharge and re-evaluate the Sea Of Thieves content biz. Thank you for all the birthday wishes over the weekend! 🎉

Everyone else might be fawning over their new #SeaOfThieves pigs but our community knows which pet stands supreme... BANANAQUIT!

The Banana King of the Sea Of Thieves is iconic but this one ain't too bad either I think! The Sea Of Friends Is Real! 😃

Where are my LOTRO fans? Did you know that you can play in 4K *without* squinting at the text in game? Watch & learn!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 07/02/2025

Spitballing Sea Of Thieves ideas How would you feel if instead of there being limited time events... Ex. Faction Weekend Bonuses we got a few months back To a daily rotation based on time Ex. 7AM-10AM OOS 10AM-1PM GH etc And just to catch your attention, ZOMBIE BARDCORE

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 03/02/2025

Just so that there's clarity here: Mondays have normally been my one day off from streaming but will now be exclusively sponsored stream based. That way fans of Sea Of Thieves (and LOTRO soon!) won't miss out on their favorite content. And Bardcore gets a needed💰 Win/win?

Jan 28th was my Mom's birthday. She passed away last year. Luckily, I had Bonney Lu by my side all day. She gave me the push I needed to take care of her final wish: spreading her ashes in a beautiful place. Taking the rest of the week off to reflect & get myself on track. Back on Feb 4th. 🫶

Used to be if you completed 57 individual goals in Sea Of Thieves you used to get a snazzy title by the end of it... Now it's just rep and renown? Por que?

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 17/01/2025

Sea Of Thieves... We need to talk. Why, OH WHY... When I want to get one type of weapon out of my armory... There's like a 1/4 chance or slightly higher that the weapon I selected... IS NOT the weapon I end up with? STOP TRYING TO MAKE DOUBLE BARREL PISTOL HAPPEN. 😭

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 17/01/2025

Guess who broke her OTHER dew claw yesterday... Lu & I were up various amounts through the night so taking the day off to make sure the doggo is okay and catching up on the zzzzz.

How many Sea Of Thieves fans are on Bluesky these days? Say hi! 👋

Remember when during certain Sea Of Thieves adventures Belle would *very* different than usual? Always wondered if that was intentional or not...

Hey @seaofthieves.com if you ever want to hire any American VO work for the game, I've got referrals. 🤣

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 03/01/2025

So many folks told me in today's Sea Of Thieves stream that they're shocked I'm not bald... Not only am I not bald, here's what I look like with even MORE. The Poodle & I have a similar style! 🤣

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 02/01/2025

If I had one Hourglass update to put in Sea Of Thieves... It'd be a TDM variant. Now hiding from replies...

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 02/01/2025

Needing to take a break today. Nothing wrong, just need a reset day! Back with some more Sea Of Thieves Hourglass tomorrow. 👋

Marketing: How about we make a big deal for your face reveal, build it up over several weeks? Me: Sure... Or I do a five second reveal at the end of my New Years' Eve Sea Of Thieves stream wearing my ugly Microsoft sweater. Marketing: But... Me: Did it! HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎉

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 29/12/2024

Just a heads up to those following this account, it's not actually me. Flattered though. 🤣

PSA: Get to Grade 5 Emissary BEFORE starting your Daily Gilded Voyage in Sea Of Thieves. That way, you can sell as you complete each map for max profit instead of keeping all that loot on your ship waiting to sell because your flag isn't there yet. Just some friendly advice!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 18/12/2024

You see the sails on the horizon in Sea Of Thieves. What's your first thought?

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 17/12/2024

Working on a Sea Of Thieves thumbnail concept right now. I've never noticed it before but it looks like right as your character goes into a disguise the game removes all the "extra" & renders your character in Cursed Graphics. Creepy. Also.... PEEK-A-BOO!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 17/12/2024

Taking a day off stream to work on some offline stuff! Got some things cooking I want to give some attention to before the end of the year. Bardmas continues on Wednesday!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 16/12/2024

Updated some Sea Of Thieves social media related stuff with this new banner. I call it Ode to Bardcore. 🤣

Been having some great fun with Holiday Haul, meeting pirates in Sea Of Thieves & giving them a small quest to obtain rewards GGs to this fine duo over on NA East who managed to dig up one of my favorite loot items in game, the Skull Of Captain Douglas! WP, enjoy the emotes!

So when can we get these types of missions back in Sea Of Thieves? Besides Hourglass, these were the only kind of events that made me feel like there was actually *a war* between The Pirate Lord and Flameheart. Really want to see something like this return in 2025!

Sea Of Thieves Guild Distinction 1 SOLO! 🍌

031

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 07/12/2024

Not only are we hitting Distinction One as a Solo Guild in Sea Of Thieves tmrw we'll probably cross the threshold to apply for Twitch Partner! Whether there's a green light or not on the first attempt, I'm thrilled in the progress in streaming since September! Thank you!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 07/12/2024

After a lot of false starts, we committed to a solo guild in Sea Of Thieves on August 16th, 2024. The goal: To reach Distinction One by the end of the year. And this weekend, barring ill tides, we will make that a reality. Distinction One with one player & one ship. GG!

Loving the Holiday vibes in Sea Of Thieves returning! Early Christmas wish - Can we get a Festival Of Giving back too? It's been so long since the last one and I reaaaaalllly don't want to keep chasing ships to try and get them to turn in my humble & generous gifts. 😂 Pretty please? 😀

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 30/11/2024

Guess who's back (in Sea Of Thieves)! Back Again! Merrick's Back! Tell A Friend! And you can still sell him fish!

Great games are built on passion but they thrive on communication. Engaging with your playerbase shouldn't be a chore. It’s critical. Players want to feel heard, not ignored. Sea Of Thieves Podcast returning quarterly is great! Monthly Dev update is A+ also! KUDOS!

Managed a 101 Chicken stack on stream today and afterward tried giving the chickens away but No TAKERS. 😭 The Sea Of Thieves has made everyone extremely paranoid. 🤣 GGs though, it was great fun!

Jon Bardcore @bardcore.gg · 28/11/2024

It's been too long since I stacked chickens in Sea Of Thieves. Then S11 took away my beloved outpost crates. But tomorrow, for a SPECIAL THANKSGIVING stream, we're running it back. CHICKENS, GET YOUR CHICKENS HERE! twitch.tv/JonBardcore youtube.com/@JonBardcore

"What are you up to Jon?" "Oh... just a little bit of light reading while Hourglass Defending in Sea Of Thieves..." "Wait, what?" "Yeah, it turns out you can get A LOT of reading done waiting for fights."
