That helped, and I think I might be getting close to the end? Maybe? (Impossible to tell with most Trails games)
Probably diving back into Sky 1st Chapter again tonight because I’d like to feel a little less hopeless

The problem with having too many hobbies is that I really want to finish this book before it gets spoiled for me, but I also want to make sure I get enough tomes for the week in FFXIV, but I also want to keep making progress against the rest of my backlog, but I also want to

Trails games are just so easy to lose myself in. Like half the afternoon just slipped away while I was cruising around Grancel 😌

Post the first movie that (unintentionally) scared you
I dunno if this counts, it felt pretty intentional on the part of the movie but I had no idea what was coming 😬

I love telling this story, so please bear with me while I tell it again.
I was around 4 years old when my family got our NES. My brother was much older, so it was (in theory) his, but it was really for both of us. We had seen our cousin’s NES on a recent trip, and we were both very taken with it.

Four video games that changed my life.
Mario started it all.
Sonic sparked my imagination in whole new ways.
Zelda showed me that portable games could be just as compelling as “big” console games.
WoW immersed me in a fantastical world, and sparked a lifelong friendship.
