So you've decided to roll on the Valentines Banner Hello and welcome back to another edition of The Premium 10 Pull, what makes this occasions all the more special? Well funny you should ask that, this last week almost, if not all of them, every gacha game tends to celebrate Valentines Day. Some more than others, but none the less this is one of the many seasons of Limited events, giveaways, an...

I am back once more And with a sad attempt at trying to write more in the year 2019, I have finally decided, whether people get it or don't, to write about the games I have been sucked into for the past two years. We're here to talk about the current goings on in all the gacha I play, any upcoming news that makes it my way about these games, and talk about future releases of these types of game...

Alright we are back for Round 2 So with the conclusion of Goblin Slayer (since it was a week delayed from everything else), I hearby dub this season of Anime over, the Fall Lineup is "over" (excluding ongoing series), and we're full on our way to Winter 2019. This is the period where we are no longer allowed to talk about what happened in Fall because soon we will be bombarded by atleast 249 ne...

Another year it has been... Another year where I just didn't muster up the strength to do what I want to do, and that is write about videogames. Yet at the end of they year is when I make the exception, even if I myself personally didn't actually play too many new releases this year. 2018 was... a year for me in the space of games. I saw myself bouncing off of AAA titles left and right (bouncin...

Hello there, it's been a while, and I made a list of games I played that weren't so hot to me in the year of games 2017. While normally I try to make lists for these things and usually have them on the dot before the turn of the year. It took me a bit to realize the other things I wanted to shout out are not good to put in a list format, so a blog post will have to do. These are games I didn't...

Hello, you might have guessed I have written blogs about Final Fantasy XIV in the past, and you would be right. I wrote a retrospective of A Realm Reborn covering from the launch of 2.0 to the introduction of Shiva in 2.4. and i might as well take the time before getting into discussing what I was going to in this blog, what happened to my plans in talking about this game in the long term. To k...

Only after a three month wait, 2.4 would descend upon the adventurers of Eorzea, making the 2.3 patch the shortest lifespan of all the content we received. This patch would go to drastically change the rewards received from hunts, and introduce a huge amount of content that is still current to this recap. The headliner for Dreams of Ice was none other than the Primal Shiva, who plays a huge rol...

July 7 would be the day 2.3 releases to the masses of Eorzea. A whopping five months from the release of 2.2. It wasn't by much but this was the longest content drought we had, and honestly it felt like nearly a year had passed since then. Everyone was done with killing Leviathan for weapons, all of the hardcore groups were making their usual rounds through Second Coils preparing for the inevit...

At the top of the blog I'd like to take another moment for thanking @zombiepie for featuring the first two installments of the blog on the community spotlight this week, thanks so much! I've been having a fun time revisiting the game from its start up till this point and will be continuing to do so. Stay tuned! We still have three more patches after 2.2 to cover. It would be the turn of the new...

2.1 was the first major content patch we got after 2.0, it added a many a new things for us to do in Eorzea, so much that it was actually quite shocking. 2.1 was possibly the biggest patch of all the content ever released in one go. One of the main reasons why was because most of this content was actually pretty much finished around the time 2.0 launched. Which is evident if you look at what wa...

It has been too long since I've posted a blog, but I felt like the time was right. After last week's capping off of Bahamut Prime, and clearing the Final Coil of Bahamut on its last week of being a lock out raid in one night literally 24 hours later I can finally go Heavensward with no regrets. To honor what has been this strange, long journey over the past year and about a half now, I wanted t...

Correct! It's that time again, as I have not been able to keep a steady flow of blogs going at all. Again my main intent is to actually do that, AND on time instead of it being an extra day late to boot. If I keep having to bring that up though I'll start sounding like a broken record, so lets not dwell on my procrastination and incompetence, cause I fucking played video games and I want to wri...

Hello and welcome back to something I've been procrastinating for about what the title says. I apologize, mostly because everything I was playing or getting myself into hasn't been too interesting to write about or share, but this week is different! In this edition of writing about Video Games, I take a quick visit into Grimrock, and say my final farewells to The Binding of Isaac, while somewhe...

Hello and welcome back to me deciding to write about video games. Now if you were paying attention last week, there was no content. Well, thanks to the US Postal Service being the US Postal Service, I did not get the two games I've been promising for the longest time in time to actually play them enough to know what I wanted to say about them. So with that I got down to it and decided to postpo...

Hello and welcome to this edition of me writing about video games. Last week as you all know was E3, so a lot of new things came to be. While the show itself was underwhelming (which shouldn't be surprising with it getting down to the end of the current cycle) there were still games out there that looked like they deserved to be talked about. So this week I bring to you some of the games that i...

Hello, and welcome to this blog I decided to write up! Yes I've decided to write about video games once again (and yes I changed the name), regardless whether or not anybody actually read the last one. So just in case you were one of the many few that skimmed through the wall of text I posted last week, I mentioned something about Dragon's Dogma. Well that didn't come in this week, so that plan...

So I wanted to write something about my current escapades in the games I'm currently playing, more so this week than any other, as you can tell there is actually content on here. Foregoing anything fancy as this might just be a one time thing, I just felt like I needed to share some of my experiences this week whether they be good or bad. So without further intro... Max Payne 3 (Contains Spoile...
