Love gaming of both the board and video varieties. Also enjoy movies, anime (and other TV!), reading, soccer, and my silly dog Toro.
🎮 Metaphor: ReFantazio and FFXIV (always)
Pinned
I've been here a while now, but just been lurking. I should prolly do an intro post.

My interests include (more specifics in following posts):
- Video games
- Board games
- Movies/TV/Anime
- Soccer
- Books
- Dogs

If you like those things too, then maybe we should be friends!
I mean...

It's Chrono Trigger. Just play Chrono Trigger

Good news today for my doggo. The toe he had removed was indeed cancerous, but it hadn't spread anywhere else yet. Once he recovers from the operation, he should be good as new. So relieved to hear that from the vet today.

This week's episode of Sanda blew me away. Probably bumped it up to my current top show this season.

Go watch this show, if you're able.
2. Sanda: A genetic descendant of Santa uses his Christmas(?) powers to help find a classmate who's gone missing.

Set in a future with plummeting birthrates where children are revered, but heavily controlled. Sanda explores the power of wishes in a world where kids aren't allowed to make them.

Anime Question of the day;
What is your favorite music based anime?

It's RockLady for me. I love these foul-mouthed misfits. The themes of putting up appearances, managing societal expectations, and authenticity are fantastic too.

#anime

What's yours? Comment or quote!

Anime Question of the day:

What is your favorite original anime? (No source material, anime came first)

It's probably Apocalypse Hotel for me. Slice-of-life that's funny, but maintains an air of melancholy appropriate for an apocalypse. It's an all-timer.

What's yours? Comment or quote!

Friends, it has been a week.

My pup had to get a toe removed and the aftercare has been exhausting, hence why I haven't been posting much. He's doing okay though and is recuperating.

On top of that, we had our fuse box replaced. It took 14 hours. We felt so bad for the poor electrician.

Caught up on the FFXIV Live Letter. Seems like there's some good stuff.

- Smartly delaying Savage till after holidays
- I'm sure you glamour fiends are happy (though no more space yet)
- New Variant (I'm mixed in the Criterion charges)
- I hope the strategy board is better than Duty Recorder

Playing a game tonight. It's called "Will my phone battery die before the electrician finishes installing the new fuse box at my house?"

Wouldn't recommend. Mechanics are boring and what's with that title? Someone really needed to punch it up a bit.

Alright, I've watched at least two episodes of almost every anime from this season that I'm planning to watch (one day we'll get One Punch Man dubs).

Here's my current top three based on initial impressions.

Video game fears:
- Poor checkpointing
- Bad endgame/ending
- Stingy autosave
- Boring gameplay loop
- Multiplayer achievements
- "Several cutscenes will play in sequence" (IYKYK)
Video game fears
No manual save option
Starting a game and getting the ingame store into my face
No banger music
No fishing
No cat petting
Difficulty options locked behind finishing game
Bad car handling in racing
Corrupted save data
People telling me I'm rushing through a game even tho I'm not
My deepest fears, video game edition!!

1. No photo mode
2. Platforming in anything other than platformers
3. Unskippable dialogue/cutscenes/credits
4. Ng+ locked content
5. Games with character creation being first person pov only
6. Being stuck with holier than thou/ goody two shoes characters

Okay okay. I know I said that I thought I was near the end of Metaphor, but this time I'm pretty sure I actually am.

Trials complete. No side quests left. Final day. Just gotta wrap up this last bit. Looking forward to the last bit!

Watched the first episode of S2 of Fionna and Cake and I'm so excited for this season.

Happy weekend friends. Friend was such tonight, so we didn't get to game together, but that means I got more time to Metaphor.

Hoping I'll wrap up my first playground this weekend, but we'll have to see if that plays out.

Tomorrow will be mostly Frosthaven though! Should be fun.
October 25, 2025 at 6:33 AM
Not my home but I know my way around 🙂‍↕️
October 24, 2025 at 9:10 PM
Goodnight friends. I hope you had a good week so far. If not, tomorrow is Friday and I hope your weekend is better!

Got a good amount of gaming done tonight. Think I'm nearing the end of Metaphor. Though I'll probably have to play it again for all the trophies.

YouTube serving me a 2-minute ad break on a 4-minute video:

Fewer ad breaks on this long video

Whhhyyy YouTube? What does long even mean anymore?

Good morning friends!

I gotta be honest. Posting is harder than it looks. It's so so easy for me to just fade into the woodwork around here getting by on lurks and likes. I dunno how you all do it with such consistency!

I'm not sure what point I'm trying to make. Just a thought I had this morning.

Share a TV show you love from the 2010's.

Infinity Train. (Not sure if this is cheating, but S1 aired in 2019, so I'm counting it)

Good morning friends. I did not, in fact, finish with work early yesterday. However, raid got cancelled, so I did get a chance to do the new MH trial (just the normal for now. it was okay! Will try the EX tomorrow.) and unlock the Deep Dungeon.
October 8, 2025 at 4:59 PM
This is unsurprising in basically every way.
October 8, 2025 at 7:44 AM
Got a "new" game. Gonna have to give this one a try once I finish Metaphor.
October 7, 2025 at 5:22 PM
Good morning friends. I'm a bit sleepy today, but I'm going to get through work quickly and get to try out the new 7.35 content in FFXIV.

It's also raid night tonight, so hopefully I can lock in and we can make some more progress.

Hope you all have a good Tuesday.
October 7, 2025 at 4:05 PM
Good morning friends. Had a busy weekend, so I wasn't around too much.

Hope your weekends were all great and that your Mondays aren't too menacing.

Have fun out there.
