They/them. The Mothra to your Godzilla. NieR/Zelda/FF/SF/Xeno/Metroid nerd. Long time Final Fantasy XIV player. And just another soul lost to FromSoftware.
Think most people would probably not be fond of the idea of turning 43, but I'm pretty happy with it myself, since it means I get to be Misato's age again today, as silly as that sound.

Nobody will ever make me hate the design of Sphene or Dawntrail as a whole, not when Toshiyuki Itahana took part in making of them.

Two years later and Cereza is finally free of that damned fungal infection that took her eyesight and scared her face and parts of her body, and free of the medicine that, while helped get her to this point, was also shorting her life the longer she took it.

With Silent Hill f unfortunately done until I go for the platinum trophy, these are the next games up on the docket, starting with Ghost of Yōtei as I've already played Final Fantasy Tactics back when it was originally released.

The Holy Trinity is complete with the arrival of my copy of Final Fantasy Tactics The Ivalice Chronicles.

Goodbye to all, I'm finally off to the town of Ebisugaoka since my copy of Silent Hill f came in today.

I'm fashionably late, but Happy 10th Anniversary to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain all the same, 'cause despite the shortcomings of it, it was still an incredibly fun game that kept me engaged well into the early morning hours for months and I won't forget that time with it.

Finishing up Death Stranding 2 the other night has made me want to pull my PS3 and play Metal Gear Solid 4, and I really should, since I've only played through it once and that back when it came out in 2008.

Final Fantasy IX: The Black Mages' Legacy, the animated series being done by Cyber Group Studios, that however hit a wall in 2024 when the studio filed for bankruptcy, and since been liquidated. The last news was Blue Spirit were offering to acquire select assets in a bit to bring the project back.

Don't worry, the games are naturally designed to have you wonder the landscape in your travels and have you seeing all of it even if you didn't want to explore.

Also... tar cat.

Honestly everything I've taken right now failed to capture how beautiful the game looks.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach
July 8, 2025 at 11:00 PM
Happy 25th Anniversary Final Fantasy IX, to whom it may concern, is still the most charming and endearing of the series today.

New version of the NieR 15th Anniversary Exhibition key visual.

With Death Stranding 2: On the Beach now in hand, it's time to start a new journey with Sam Bridges and Lou once again.

Goodbye... Alessa.

Happy 15th Anniversary to the very first Xenoblade and the start of a series I never imagined would happen back when I played it.

So I probably shouldn't of bought this with money being tight and all, but I been wanting the steelbook of Final Fantasy XII and it was the cheapest I've seen for a sealed copy of it.

I need Capcom to do me a solid and make this the title screen of Resident Evil 9, which only feel right if we're returning to ground zero and ruins of Raccoon City.
June 7, 2025 at 12:13 AM
I saw somebody say their being lazy and just using a filter for Final Fantasy Tactics The Ivalice Chronicles, and I just need to say, some of you need to go get your eyes checked out badly.
June 6, 2025 at 4:55 AM
While it isn't the collection I was hoping from Capcom, I am happy these are at least being brought back in some form to newer consoles.

The true gaming experiences have finally arrived!

Don't normally post others work, but Makimura Shunsuke isn't here, don't have a rule against, and I'd like others to see their work.

But this is probably one of my favorite pieces by them of Queen of Reason, Sphene, from Final Fantasy XIV.

The original character design was by Toshiyuki Itahana.
