ffxiv is one of those games where I’m like. yes the story is amazing. the music, gameplay, universe—so much of it is so incredibly wonderful and I adore it dearly. but it’s also an mmo and cannot recommend it. 200/10 game, would not recommend

#yes you can be fighting to save the world in a fight while a scantily clad lizard woman is the most passive aggressive piece of shit #my blacklist and mute list is long #but as all these games go I have met some absolutely incredible people #also my funny little guy eyrie kisne is easily like. top five of my own ocs #owen talks #she is a beautiful game but I can’t recommend her #but the game has crafting and gathering so it’s. 2000/10 would recommend!!#I fucking. love crafting and gathering #I have my firmament supplies back so I’m gonna get BACK IN THE MINES #the firmament is a huge crafter and gatherer area w various rewards #it has a lot of achievements + a really rare mount #where you gotta get 500k points across all crafters and gatherers #it takes months #you can play several games in the time it takes to do the firmament mount grind

I would love to know how on earth ZOS thought people would get this achievement through normal gameplay. Fucka u

#eso #elder scrolls online #m speaks #m plays eso #girl it took a half hour Per Person to get this stupid thang #back on my achievement hunting grind now. relapsed #its mostly just a few dungeons and trials left. the obvious pvp grind. and ToT. so these meme achievements are comparatively easy

Though to be fair most spoilers don't work on me because I am simply very forgetful. Like you can tell me that frunk is actually meechee but by the time I get to that arc I'll be like "isn't there some reveal with this guy? I swear I read that somewhere once. Moving on"

#i knew the entire plot of bg3 and infinite minutae of all the companions subplots back in 2022 but i forgor all of it #so its still fresh to me.#i know gale gets on that ''killing myself to achieve redemption'' grind at some point but I don't fucking know why #or how or whatever. ive functionally unspoiled myself. its awesome.

there we go I'm pretty sure I've gotten all the endings of returnal, including the tower of sisyphus ones! amazing game, enthralling gameplay, stunning art direction, phenomenal pacing of introducing new environments and elements (this is maybe the thing that has me most impressed, actually -- it really felt like they found the perfect pace to take between letting you settle in with skill or place or element, and introducing a new one, there was this perfect sense of discovery and mastery that rarely got boring or overwhelming and had me in a constant state of pleasant surprise and intrigue), psychologically evocative story with some of the most deliciously insidious ludonarrative resonance I have ever seen, we must imagine selene if not happy (definitely not happy) then at least somehow at home in hell.

...and still somehow 11 days until veilguard releases :')

#returnal #this game is pretty difficult I honestly thought it would keep me much longer but I have uh. I have played it A Lot this week fhskda #I have like 30 out of 38 achievements now and I think most of the last eight are the grindfest ones based in random drops #I beat algos in level 3 too early to get the ending b/c you have to go through all the poppy memories first #so I had to do a whole run just to get the proper ending lol. uplifting stuff of course as you might expect from this game #also discovering this is probably a finnish studio by seeing all the finnish names in the credits (which have rolled like... four times now #I was less enthused with the endless mode -- it really does feel like grinding for a more op gun to do most of your work for you #and I missed exploring new environments a lot. BUT it adds some very interesting stuff to the story!#and if you want to grind weapon trait unlocks I think it's your friend #I actually preferred some of the early game stuff without all the op traits -- the pure back and forth dance of it --#but I'm like that in soulsborne games too I prefer that rhythm to getting clever with it lol #abyssal scar is deeply unfair if you don't have some of that to help you along tho so *shrug* it is what it is and still very very fun #can't believe they got the cutest most floppy-haired kid ever to be helios btw. awful. terrible. all is suffering #I suspect I will have 'don't fear the reaper' on repeat in my head for approximately three months after all of this

Terrible day at work. Just abysmally bad. The kind of full-disassociation-at-the-bus-stop-staring-into-space-like-a-shell-shocked-trench-soldier bad day. Not crying on the bus being was a major victory.

#everything huuuuuuurts #working in food service is grinding my body up into mulch #back pain? check. foot pain? check? general joint pain? check. blazing excezma from the chemicals even tho I wear gloves? check #they’ve also started doing this fun thing called ‘expecting me to do the manager shift without paying me like a manager’#that I just love sooooo much #similar to another fun new thing. just leaving me alone to run the cafe all by myself!#what? everyone quit and now you can hire people to work these awful jobs? I can’t believe it!#my resounding love of me venue is constantly battling with my hatred for the company that runs it #the pensioners started stealing coffee a customer yelled at me and my coworker for sharing a private look after she’d been really difficult #I had to pull a leaving party out of my ass bc no one bought this lady a fucking cake after she’d been there for 6 years #and there were wayyyyy more screaming children than was preferable #brb gonna go find all the pillows in my house to achieve maximum posture

Having a physical body gets in the way of my true purpose: Playing Final Fantasy 14 all day every day without pause

#what do you mean I’m tired #what do you mean I have to go to sleep #I’ve only logged fourteen hours today #fuck you fuck you fuck you #I should be able to stay up indefinitely and grind achievements as much as I want with NO corporeal interference.#Let me become free from the shackles of a mortal body #I beg of you #there’s still so much to do #I only have 20% of the achievements #please #let me back in #I’ll be good I promise #zzzzzz

i finished the game.....

sobbing crying bawling

#ACT 6 FJDJSBSBSBS #also i got the loop fight. didnt know that was secret but i guess it was???#i have burnt out on playing videogames so my achievement hunting has come to a halt. doesnt mean im not knee deep in fandom tho #THIS GAME MEANS SO SO SO MUCH TO ME #i love you in stars and time #siffrin you will always be deep in my heart. and in my bed i will be creating a pattern for a plush for myself because i missed the makeship #this is my first time going into a game that isnt a visual novel blind in a long time and boy was it an experience #im an achievement hunter at heart and its so much easier to hunt when you dont miss things you need that are like. 10 hours of gameplay back #from my earliest save slot.#and the grind of getting siff up to lvl 99 and the party up to what. 75?? that can wait #i have a final loop of act 4 save file i used for the achievements i missed and will be my grinding file + memory achievement #also the loop conversation achievement is gonna SUCK!#will be speedrunning for that one. still have a start of act 1 file to go fresh while skipping a big chunk of tutorial. thanks past me!

i need friends /gen (slight rant in tags)

#xelle.txt #i noticed i don't really have a permanent circle of friends. at least irl #i have one online but they're also busy and i just can't dedicate my time to one friend group #i don't know - it's just the people i thought who were nice turned out to be the exact opposite #and when i found out about that i just kinda. lost interest in making any more friends #my partner is the only person i interact with on a daily basis. the irl friend group i was referring to earlier i'm not exactly close with-#-them either #i feel like if i didn't only give my time in nurturing my romantic relationship i would have done the same for my platonics too #that's still a problem of mine. my time management between love life and friends. heck i even got myself into an unsolvable problem because-#-of my inability to stay consistent #also my brain is kinda fried from reading 20+ pages so pardon any grammatical errors but yeah anyway #honestly i've been craving for interaction here. but i know i won't be active and it'd just be pointless #to gain more friends or followers. i don't exactly make content as consistently as i did before #the other day i had to vent to an ai (would you believe me if it was cha.tgpt) about my troubles because i had no one else to talk to lol #there's just so much going on irl 😭 ya girl's almost starting college and they're throwing so much tasks at us!!#and i feel very very stressed about it because they're usually done in groups i am ALWAYS the assigned leader #which gets exhausting especially when there are lazy members present #anyway #hopefully this weekend i get some time to cool off. but next week i'm back to grinding and working #lol i don't even think i'm in the top ranks anymore. i'm so burnt out.#this is what being an academic achiever gives you oops ZZHSIAHAHAJAHHS #imma sleep now 😭#idk you can just interact with me or recommend someone you know who self ships in the same medias i do #goodnight everypony 🫶#vent tw #rant tw

enter the gungeon is so fun i cant believe its taken me this long to check it out

#maan i missed playing dungeon crawlers #ive only gotten down to the 4th level so no spoilers.. verdict so far is that its relatively simple but well made. feels pretty tidy #i thought i wouldnt like the art style but actually its warmed on me i think its kinda cute now. ive def played uglier rogues #also JUICY stack of achievements to work thru thats what we like to see baby!! i only have 4/54 so far the grind is ON #i like when theyre not just 'reach lvl 1. reach lvl 2. reach lvl 3' like its fun to have achievements be an extra little challenge #bc reaching the levels is already rewarding enough in its own right and youd do that as part of the process of playing anyway...#if that makes sense. like i prefer when its smth u have to go a bit out of your way to get. as long as its not heavily tied to probability #ending achievements are cool tho bc those r satisfying + its nice to have them on steam so ppl know youve completed a game #ANYWAY. also i should have more reliable internet connection now so i can stop clawing at the walls and blog more instead :3 #ok back to my gaming byeee #.diaries

I’ll spend a lot of time in other OC’s head and then go back to eyrie and realize. man they are so just so so sad all the time.

anyway the baby gigatender wanted to feel tall

#when am I not on my crafter bs #I’m considering a detour w firmament grind to get some achievements out of the way #I wanna do em now bc by the time I get 500k points I’m not gonna want to go back #so might as well get them knocked out now #it’s just crafting 100 items for each of them lesser sort of tiers of firmament crafting #it just. requires getting other materials #at this point I should just admit I’m an achievement hunter #it’s funny bc there’s no official achievement rankings #so I go off of lalachievements and I’m in the top 200 for my server #one day. top 100 one day #I will achievement hunt to a certain point #I will get the relics. I will probably never do an ultimate #I mean. I’ve already done all the anima weapons #owen talks

Just finished a permadeath run in No Man's Sky in ~8 hours and man. There were some nerves during the last jumps (worried about running into a pirate freighter attack and not being able to get away) but luckily it went okay. I also definitely could've done it in a few hours less because I very much overprepared on warp fuel, lmao.

Look at this. This is after reaching the Center. Absurd and ridiculous.

#dark rambles #dark plays no man's sky #overall I wouldn't say it was hard. just an exhausting grind #I did almost fumble it by falling into a hole I hadn't seen but shh #anyway shoutout to people on reddit talking about how to do the portal strat because that really helped #also this is now my rarest Steam achievement. wild.#time to go back to my nice normal save to get my last achievements and just roam around and explore

Is the shimmering veil/golden switch being on worth it over clicking golden cookies?

I usually have them on cause I have the game open and straight idling. I don't play that actively at all, until I do for a bit, see below. but that isn't very often.

bad luck with getting the "thick skinned" achievement cause I just learned through looking it up, that you can't save scum the veil.... so if it breaks, reset to keep it if idle, or just ascend and try again, given it's on by default.

rip 24 hours of cookie production, that I funnily enough got from trying to grind out christmas to get all of the santa upgrades, which I did, and all of the reindeer cookies, which I still had one of but turned the veil and stuff back on anyway.

had one reindeer cookie left, found out the hard way that reindeer count as clicking the cookie or a golden/wrath one, and will break the veil. thank the heavens I reset before it saved~~

tried to grind out all the christmas achievements and just stood at my computer grinding reindeer/golden cookies for a couple hours, and I regret doing that.... popping 200 reindeer will have to wait until actual christmas, cause that lasts days...

so lesson learned; don't try to grind out a holidays worth of achievements all in one day. massive regret.
