At the credits for A Realm Reborn. Again. Heavensward, here we come.

9 Years of Shadows, recommended by our resident bear of slime, is off to a strong start. I would have expected and preferred it to have a leveling system, based on the aesthetic, but it's still pretty good so far.

Looking forward to this beauty. It'll be a while, but still.

Got my first Relic Weapon in Final Fantasy 14! The Artemis bow for the bard. Probably wasn't worth the effort, but it's pretty, so I'll put time into upgrading it anyway.

That's a wrap on A Realm Reborn. That leaves the not-so-small matter of literally all the other content. I am both excited and intimidated.

Suck it, Rhitahtyn, you iron-clad fuckface. Woo!

Hit a bit of a wall in one of the story quests of FF14. Boss can one shot me in phase 2 if I don't get out of the way in time. Think I need to raise another class that's tankier?

After a bit of confusion that I assumed was user error, turns out the 8bitdo ultimate controller only supports bluetooth for switch, and needs to be used wired or with an included 2.4G dongle on PC. Would have been nice if that was clearer in advertising.

I've been playing almost nothing but FF14. It is a dangerous game, but an entertaining one. Here's my Bard, Kaldur, with his chocobo friend. Their name is Zephyr.

I unlocked the chocobo in FF14 just now. I am so happy to have that over with.

Liking my new start on FF14 so far. Can't wait to unlock mount use again. Forgot that was a thing, honestly, was mildly disappointed to remember it.

Downloading Final Fantasy 14. This may be a mistake, but at least it'll be a fun mistake.

If you pre-ordered RE4 Remake Collector's Edition at Gamestop, you should probably check on that. Kotaku reported on a lot of orders being canceled, and that has been corroborated by gamestop themselves.

Happy birthday Alphadeus.

Though I haven't played on higher difficulties much, my main frustration with Final Bar Line is related to the controls of one of the stage types. More in comments.

Now I know why the ease of the 3DS "thing" is a meme. Good to have that done.

Man, Dracula in the Castlevania Dead Cells DLC does not fuck around.

"The official release date for the "Return to Castlevania" DLC is today, at: - 10AM PT - 1PM ET - 6PM GMT - 7PM CET" ... Time to nap until 1 PM I guess?

I know I read that Walking Wake was easier, but I wasn't prepared for how much easier. A couple hours preparation and caught it first try.

Finally got Iron Leaves. Took a few more levels on Kingambit and a lot of luck. Good thing I have a few days to prepare for and take down Walking Wake.

I must have tried the Iron Leaves raid in Pokemon Violet more than a dozen times already and haven't succeeded once... If a Level 91 Kingambit isn't good enough I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Tried to doodle away some of the sad. It worked a little bit.

What we could afford to do wasn't enough. She's being put down after all. Goodbye my precious angel. I will always love you.

I hope everyone is having a better day than I am right now...

Three guesses who has two thumbs and bought, then restarted Elden Ring on PC. First two don't count.
